How long before one of Trumps' posse pulls an intervention

Sooner or later someone close to the Don will go over the edge. It is hard to believe that all those close to the poor man have no sense of compassion for him. He is in need of a time out with some therapy to boot.

he would deserve our sympathy. I can not bring myself to offer him any but I am amazed the people who profess to love the man are not stepping in to protect what is left of his mind.

I believe he has always been a hateful sexist bigot so folks who are used to hearing him say these things are numb to it. Of course they may not really care about him at all. Vultures waiting for his breakdown or death.

and he does not want to hurt the party anymore than Trump has. I am very thankful we have Hillary as our nominee, if our nominee was Trump then I would not be able to vote for the DNC nominee and I have been a lifetime Democratic voter but not for Trump. It is country over party.

and need to take a couple of days off the campaign trail to "rest". Or he will "lose his voice" or something and not be able to give speeches for a few days.

If they could pull off an "intervention" they would have done so before now.
