Re: Donald Trump is Finished
He won't be impeached as long as the republicans in the senate choose not to. Right now they can load the judiciary with their appointments and use Trump as a distraction. If they decide to impeach then Mike Pence would take over and that is not an outcome any sane person would want.

Re: Most exciting Burnley player
Tough one to call as exciting doesn't necessarily mean the most skillful. It was never dull when Rocket Ron was on the field. Sometimes you could just tell a red card was around the corner. Steve Harper's 5 game a season purple patch was always entertaining, pity about the rest of the season though....

Le Taha'a Island Resort and Spa would be your best bet although I'm not sure if the swim up bar has the premier league games. Other than that then maybe the Hibiscus Hotel in Ha'Amene might be showing it although I think that is more of a rugby place.
