13. It's time for the Senate R's to have the "Nixon Talk" with Trump

On August 7, 1974, Senators Barry Goldwater and Hugh Scott informed then-president Richard Nixon he had two choices: resign, or lose his office to impeachment.

In the year 2026, Donald Trump has started two illegal wars, one in Venezuela and the other in Iran, has destabilized the world economy with the Iraq War, has increased his grifting activities, and has screwed up airport security to the point they're talking about closing critical airports (specifically, the ones in Hawaii; due to sea conditions in the Hawaiian archipelago the only workable solution for interisland travel...like, say, going to the hospital in Honolulu...is air, so there MUST be a working airport on every populated Hawaiian island) and deploying ICE to replace TSA officers.

The Senate needs to inform Mr. Trump that they can easily convince 10 Republican Congressmen and 20 Republican Senators to get rid of his sorry ass if the Party is to be saved.
