Ah Buzzfeed. Hard hitting journalism combined with quizzes telling me what sort of pie I would be (apple).

Wow. This intelligence leak might (finally) be his undoing.

I want to see Trump supporters / Republicans defend this one.

President Trump aide and longtime bodyguard Keith Schiller accidentally revealed the cellphone number of Defense Secretary James Mattis in a photo sent to the press.

The Washington Post published the photo to accompany a Thursday article about Schiller's role in delivering the termination letter to then-FBI Director James Comey.

This is hilarious, I mean they have enough to swamp the entire administration and yet here we are watching more of this unravel. You'd figure state secrets and their unearthing via sheer ignorance would warrant a firing squad.

I suspect most of the traditional Republicans are just biding their time, towing the line carefully, ensuring they don't publicly support Trump too much (especially on some of his real crazy stuff) but appearing to be behind their party's nominated leader.

Trump is more tea party to me (seems that way with the influencers he listens to).

I would be surprised if Trump remains President for much longer. His time is done. Isn't he supposed to be meeting with Putin later this month? I thought I heard that being reported late last week.

That would only happen if the President were a Democrat. These are Republicans we're talking about here. Trump could kill a puppy and eat it on live TV and these spineless turds would still find some way to spin it in Trump's favor. "That puppy was a danger to the American people! Emails! Benghazi!"

In order for Trump to be impeached, you need a majority of the House to vote on Articles of Impeachment (file charges) and then you need a two-thirds majority (67 members) of the Senate to convict.

If Trump doesn't finish his term it will be due to him resigning, illness, or death, not actual impeachment.

Though, if Democrats win the House in 2018 I could see Articles of Impeachment brought against him, though I can't imagine the Senate actually convicting. Also, I'd be in favor of that move as simply a means to slow down the Trump Agenda and force the Administration's attention to the Impeachment proceedings instead of passing wildly insane EO's and nominating Jim Crow-holdouts like Sessions.

Is this going to be Donald Trump's Monica Lewinski moment? "I did not have contextual relations with those Russians."

If it progresses to that point, the real question is: if there with articles of impeachment against him but the senate is signalling they'll do nothing, would Trump actually resign at end-of-term, or would he run for re-election? It would really be the height of spectacle to see a half-impeached president stubbornly out on the campaign trail where he's happiest, with his own party more confused than ever about what to do about him.

Whether or not it's his undoing or not, he's clearly either trying to get removed or is so incompetent that whether it's this or something else down the line, he'll eventually be removed....or get us all killed in the process.
