Repealing Obamacare or a nuclear war in Korea would be a disaster. So far Trump hasn't really done anything, so no.

Pretty much this. I never expected a great administration, but his new cycles flubs are all recoverable. The sense of impending doom is generated more by what's coming that isn't.

Does the lethargic response and the humanitarian crisis in Puerto Rico not count?

If there is a high death toll as a result, then yes.

So all the pain and suffering that over 3 million Americans have gone through due to incompetence is not enough? They have to die too?

No one should have to go through pain and suffering, but the reality is, you can recover from property damage. It's when people die that no one can bring them back.

Property damage cannot be overcome by many people and honestly losing everything with no prospect of replacing it can be worse than death.

The key is can be. A lot of things can happen. But if you give people the choice between execution or poverty, I guarantee you the vast majority would choose poverty. No one's saying either one is good.
