Kicking him around

The Trump Administration is embroiled in controversy over its links to the Russian government during the 2016 election campaign. At this stage, calls for his impeachment sound like political point scoring. Having said that, I cannot help but think that this may end badly for Donald Trump.

He has publically stated that the media is treating him unfairly. To my knowledge, Richard Nixon was the last American president to complain that the media had it in for him. Back in August 1974, Nixon had to resign, at least partially undone by his own paranoia. If a public figure antagonises the media, then they may go after him or her even harder.
