Do I understand him correctly, if one takes all those Republican representatives that have been taken out for not signing up as agents for a foreign country, it means Teh Donald is a threat to the country and democracy

Remember that Trump's first pardon as president was to Joe Arpaio, an AZ sheriff who was convicted of...criminal contempt. As I wrote in this @cnn piece a while back, the crimes that Trump chose to pardon give us a window into his mind https://cnn.com/2018/06/05/opinions/wha ... index.html
Doesn’t know how old he is, but his graduation is very important.
Trump gets his son Barron's age wrong in TV interview In an interview with Telemundo 51, Trump offered that Barron, who turned 18 in March, is 17 years old.
Former President Donald Trump misstated the age of his youngest son in an interview that aired Thursday, saying Barron Trump was 17 years old — even though he turned 18 in March.
The mistake came when Trump reacted to his son's entering the political arena as a delegate from Florida for the Republican National Convention, which was first reported by NBC News.
"He’s pretty young, I will say. He’s 17," Trump said in an interview with Telemundo 51 of Miami. "But if they can do that, I’m all for it."

Former President Donald Trump could owe the IRS more than $100 million after claiming dubious tax breaks on his skyscraper in Chicago, a bombshell New York Times report revealed Saturday.
The Chicago Tower — Trump’s most recent major construction project and completed in 2009 — has been a huge money loser since building began.
But the IRS is accusing Trump of writing off his losses twice — effectively double dipping on the tax benefits gained from the tower’s financial losses.
The Times reported that Trump’s tax return in 2008 claimed the building was “worthless” because the debt was too great to ever turn a profit. He reported losses of up to $651 million, according to the Times' investigation which it did in partnership with ProPublica.

Hasn't there been reporting on some Chicago entity he's had sitting on his books for years with no activity? Maddow has reported on that a few years ago.
Can he stop running for president and just go on tour? It's all he really wants - the crowds and adoration.
They would be easy to schedule around his trials.
Do the right thing. It will gratify some people and astonish the rest. - Mark Twain
