Could it be that Trump is trying to get himself impeached?

[imanamerican63]

He has done everything to make it look like he is guilty? He won't shut up either? His goal is to use the impeachment as a crutch to have his base feel sorry for him and he can blame it the media & others?

1. Honestly

I was asking myself the same question today.

[sunonmars]

2. Yeah, he is self destructive and its obvious, he hates it and bored with it.

3. lol no.

If he wanted to leave office that bad, he would finish out his term, declare that he's made American great again and he isn't seeking re-election.

4. Couldn't he just resign?

And throw out the old Nixon chestnut, "You won't have Donald Trump to kick around anymore."

5. I considered it one time. I have decided no. He's just a raging ignorant asshole. -nt

[htuttle]

6. No, he's just actually that lame in real life

He's used to dealing with situations where the money he inherited from his father gets him out of trouble.

It's not working anymore, but he's still who he's always been.

7. I thought throughout the campaign that he was doing all he could to show himself unfit for office

yet, here we are....

8. His base is nothing but shit to him unless he is running for reelection.

"a crutch to have his base feel sorry for him and he can blame it the media & others?"

They are useful tools to him.

9. No, he's just a lazy Mob front man.

He's been able to get away with whatever he wanted to do before because previously he had primarily been operating the realms of entertainment, shady real estate or corporate branding - each of which tends to be protected within their own rarified environment separate from the general public.
A true failed scion - because of Daddy's money and Daddy's network and the celebrity status (which was the only real thing he ever worked at), he was always able to escape any punishment whenever he broke the law by throwing money around and being brash and outrageous (as in, lying his ass off and throwing temper tantrums when he gets caught).
He doesn't understand that being a President is a real world job with real consequences. Hell, I don't even know if he understands that other people are real.
He's still living the life of a "rich front man" character in Celebrity World.

10. I've had the same thought recently...but then again, he is truly an idiot, so it's hard to say...

[blueinredohio]

11. Could be then he could say how crooked everything is.

[smirkymonkey]

12. He is spiteful and destructive enough to do something like that so that he can say the

Democrats drove him out of office, enraging his base and starting a civil war where the deplorables seek revenge against the rest of us on his behalf. I think he would love to see something like that. He is just THAT sick.

14. Dream on.

15. His business felonies could put him in jail: He'll leave office if he has to.

He probably thinks he can negotiate for a pardon down the road.
