IN January, in my predictions for the year, I wrote this about Donald Trump:

“Donald Trump will be forced to become the compromising president - after making many controversial and at times bizarre claims about what he will do when he takes office, I actually can’t see many of them becoming a reality after Trump’s inauguration.”

So far, I would say my forecast has turned out completely wrong.

The man looks out of depth, lashing out at enemies, at times out of control.

Instead of compromising he has pushed ahead with crazy policies, from the intolerant Muslim travel ban, taking America out of the Paris climate agreement, to a health care reform bill that failed to get through a congress his own party controls.

Since entering the White House, 10 of his senior team have either resigned or been dismissed, suggesting he is not prepared to listen or work with anyone.

His actions recently are increasing becoming concerning.

At the weekend he failed to condemn the white supremacists, after the violence in Charlottesville that left one woman dead.

He would later bow to overwhelming pressure to do so, but by then it was too late.

It was undoubtedly the worse moment of his presidency so far.

And what about his rhetoric towards North Korea?

Where there are increased tensions, is it wise to make comments about unleashing “fire and fury”.

He has fallen into the trap the North Korean leader Kim Jong-un wants, of goading each about the impressive arsenal they could use on one another.

Remember, Kim Jong-un is terrified of losing power, and uses the anti-American propaganda to secure his own position within his country.

It is smarter for a US president to see this and rise above it - however this Twitter and media-obsessed president chooses to continue issuing empty threats.

Questions are beginning to be asked whether the 71-year-old will see out the full term if his presidency continues in the same way it has gone so far.

Potentially, one way would be for the Republican Congress to impeach him.

Only time will tell, but the chaos and controversy sadly looks here to stay for some while yet.
