Can Trump resign?

The presidency Donald Trump is currently holding is no less troubling for his political and business career set. When every single electoral and popular vote went for him, it was mostly because the ones who voted found Trump’s lack of logic, often confused with straight talking, as the right way to lead a nation like ours. The main thing I, and everyone in this country, will be thinking is, can Trump resign or be resigned?

Time will tell, indeed, if either scenario was to take place for the first time in four decades (Nixon, at Trump’s side, was wiser to admit to his own flaws) Time will tell if Trump’s lack of transparency and any likely wrongdoing from him, or his immediate people at the White House, would result on his political demise. Why not?
