The always 'fair and balanced' New York Times' Nicholas Kristof (author of such 'real news' as "Donald Trump: Kremlin Employee of the Month?", "What Did Trump Know, and When Did He Know It?" and "Donald Trump: The Russian Poodle") has outdone himself with this week's 'opinion' piece, asking "Were just a month into the Trump presidency, and already so many are wondering: How can we end it?"
While thousands turn out to Trump's rallies, and several polls suggest the America that voted for Trump is still supportive of Trump and his actions, Kristoff points out that one poll from Public Policy Polling found that as many Americans 46 percent favor impeachment of President Trump as oppose it. Ladbrokes, the betting website, offers even odds that Trump will resign or leave office through impeachment before his term ends.
Sky Bet, another site, is taking wagers on whether Trump will be out of office by July.
There have been more than 1,000 references to Watergate in the news media in the last week, according to the Nexis archival site, with even some conservatives calling for Trumps resignation or warning that he could be pushed out. Dan Rather, the former CBS News anchor who covered Watergate, says that Trumps Russia scandal isnt now at the level of Watergate but could become at least as big.
Maybe things will settle down. But what is striking about Trump is not just the dysfunction of his administration but also the vigorously denied allegations that Trumps team may have cooperated with Vladimir Putin to steal the election. Whats also different is the broad concern that Trump is both: A) unfit for office, and B) dangerously unstable.

Stand tall.
Elections have consequences. Suck it up buttercup.
These people need to be defeated and their radicalism driven from the mainstream.
"After questioning President Trump's sanity earlier in the week, it appears Democrats have found another narrative to cling to - invoke the 25th Amendment unless Trump "gets a grip.""
Hey...Kristoff! I put up with eight years of that vapid, two-faced, empty suit you bozos elected and you’re bitching after a couple of weeks? Come back eight years from now and I’ll listen to your complaints on an equal footing with the crap I put up with for those eight years.
Yes, ISIS needs to be defeated and ....uh,.....oh, wait........your talking about deranged liberals....................
Putting out the call for the ol’ .38 cal. electoral vote, eh?
At what point does ‘dissent’ become ‘sedition’? The Slimes is rapidly approaching it.
Is there any doubt that these anti-democratic, anti-American propagandists are attempting a coup to overthrow our government and the will of the people? They wont get anywhere, but its disgusting that anyones listening to such evil, dishonest, hate-filled, manipulative people.
How can we get rid of fakenews merchants like Kristof, who sounds like a “Kremlin poodle” by the name?
I hope people realize that, if the progressives get Trump out in the short term, all pretense of a representative democracy is over. A leftist autocracy will replace it.
Who is "we" ?
The left started beating the “Trump will withdraw from the presidential race” drum during the campaign. They must enjoy being wrong.
100% of that 46% have an IQ of room temperature or lower.
Simply disliking someone is not grounds for impeachment.
The very fact that they are even discussing it 1 month in, shows that they have no clue what they are talking about and are purely ideologically driven.

I’ll be happy to take some libs money on that one.

It’s silly. You might as well go for impeachment. The 25th Amendment requires 2/3 of the house and senate to declare a president unfit for office after the VP and cabinet have done so.
I keep telling myself that I seriously need to get in on some of this action.....and then I remind myself what deadbeats lefties are. I'd win but never collect.
First of all, I think we should never purchase the Times. Try to avoid quoting it. Tell establishments that carry that cage-liner that you find it offensive that it is carried in the store as there are many local publications that could use the shelf space.
When you see others reading it, laugh at them with derision.
