Since trump became president, it has been an unbelievable rollercoaster ride. It's clear we are witnessing events that have a unprecedented historical value.

Let's sum up the threats he is facing:
- a special counsel is investigating collusion between a foreign state (russia) and former trump campaign members, including himself. the investigation started after trump fired the former head of the FBI and stated in a tv interview 'he fired him because of that russian thing'. trump could be accused of obstruction of justice (because nobody is above the law) and collusion with the russians or conspiracy, if they find evidence of doing so.

- the local prosecutor in new york has seized all communications and materials from his personal lawyer michael cohen.
this guy acted as his personal fixer. it's expected this lawyer will be prosecuted for bank fraud, money laundering and other stuff. why is the a threat to trump? if trump did crimes in the past, the lawyer knows and he might flip on trump to get a lower jail sentence.

- he is being sued by multiple people with regards to sexual herassment and defamation, including a former adult actress. she claims she had an affaire with trump and that she signed a non-disclosure agreement to keep her mouth shut. she was paid 130k hush money. the danger exists that it was paid from the presidential campaign fund; if so, it's a clear violation of campaign finance law as well.

What happens if trump is found guilty from criminal charges? If he is guilty to obstruction/collusion with the russians or conspiracy, it's in theory an impeachable offense. Succesful impeachment means they kick him out as president.
 
However in order to impeach him, a 2/3 majority in the senate is required. At this time, the republicans have the majority of the house. However, in a few months, there are elections for the house and senate which could change the division of power towards the democrats.

So much going on, each day new stuff is revealed and the story continues.

What do you think:
- will trump battle all these growing obstacles successfully and make it through his 4 year term (or even win the reelection and stay for another 4 years)?
- will the special counsel conclude that trump is guilty to crimes (collusion, obstruction of justice, conspiracy) and will this lead to an impeachment?
- will trump's lawyer flip and reveal even bigger crimes?
- if trump is found guilty and they try to remove him, will there be a violent standoff between him and his guards and the police?
