Donald Trump is no longer the president of the United States: Robert Reich

nnouncement: Donald Trump is no longer the president of the United States
Oh sure, he has the title and he has the bully pulpit – from which he’s bullying everyone from NBA players to people protesting white supremacists to DACA kids.
But he’s not actively governing the United States. That work is happening elsewhere – in Congress, the courts, the Fed, the career civil service, lobbyists, and in the states. Or it’s not happening at all.

Don’t get me wrong. Trump is still a dangerous showman and conman – tweeting condemnations of critics and ranting before friendly crowds at his never-ending campaign rallies. He continues to fuel bigotry and meanness. He has reduced America’s standing in the world. His outbursts could start a nuclear war.

But when it comes to the actual work of governing America, Trump is becoming utterly and completely irrelevant.

All he wants is a small crowd of shrieking morons telling him how great he is.

I called it last week, with PR, Trump has effectively resigned his presidency even if he is still formally in office.

Except in a moment of pique, he could still order the launch of nuclear missiles, and there would still be no official mechanism to stop him.

Reich was aware of that.

His outbursts could start a nuclear war.
