Apparently the answer is YES! Could a Robot Be President? http://politi.co/2tAPBzm "President Donald Trump reportedly spends his nights alone in the White House, watching TV news and yelling at the screen. He wakes up early each morning to watch more television and tweet his anger to the world … or Mika Brzezinski … or CNN. He takes time out of meetings with foreign leaders to brag about his Electoral College win. That all sounds, at the very least, distracting for a person with the weight of the free world on his shoulders. But if his fury at the Russia scandal and insecurity about his election are stealing time from the important decisions of the presidency, Trump is by no means the first commander in chief whose emotions or personality have gotten in the way of the job. From Warren Harding’s buddies enriching themselves in Teapot Dome to Richard Nixon’s Watergate hubris to Bill Clinton nearly getting kicked out of office because he couldn’t control his base urges, it’s human weakness—jealousy, greed, lust, nepotism—that most often upends presidencies. Now, a small group of scientists and thinkers believes there could be an alternative, a way to save the president—and the rest of us—from him- or herself. As soon as technology advances far enough, they think we should put a computer in charge of the country. Yes, it sounds nuts. But the idea is that artificial intelligence could make America’s big, complicated decisions better than any person could, without the drama or shortsightedness that we grudgingly accept from our human presidents." |

He can certainly take a fall by no longer being able to operate in a semi official capacity via the Trump administration. You, like Trump & Co. are desperate to change the topic, but tthings are getting progressively worse for your side: Trump tries to cast doubt on Russia allegations, defends son https://www.wsj.com/articles/morning-after-email-release-trump-declares-sons-innocence-attacks-news-media-1499861198 "President Donald Trump on Wednesday sought to refute allegations that the Russian government tried to help his presidential campaign and damage that of Hillary Clinton, arguing that his policies run counter to the Kremlin’s interests." |

So what are the names of these Russian "officials".....You have a singer, a lawyer, and a millionaire who all deny they are "connected" with the Russian government....In other words, you ain't got diddly squat....You and the rest of the controlled media need to mail your degrees back to your colleges............

You don't need to program anything, old Trumpy is self-programing. Consider this: Democracy itself was attacked, aided by the current "President" and his team, |

Thanks for the perfunctory knee jerk reply, which is, of course, devoid of and refutation or counter argument.

Dems see huge field emerging to take on Trump; http://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/342851-dems-see-huge-field-emerging-to-take-on-trump "Democrats are expecting one of their party’s biggest fields in history will battle to take on President Trump in the 2020 election. They say Trump’s low approval ratings, his lack of legislative accomplishments and the lingering controversy surrounding multiple investigations into Russia’s involvement in the 2016 race have a number of Democrats positioning themselves for a White House run." |

The message is pap: The TV That Created Donald Trump http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/07/31/the-tv-that-created-donald-trump "For months, it felt easier to avoid watching Donald Trump on television. It was like sniffing spoiled milk: you didn’t need a sip to know it was bad. Then, in June, the President held the first meeting of his complete Cabinet. It aired live, as Trump’s early campaign rallies had, in full and without commentary..." |
