Seriously. Why doesn't he just resign and become a recluse

[Roland99]

and spend the rest of his life at Moscow-a-Lago eating delivered Big Macs

1. Because he enjoys making people miserable.

As miserable as he may be, he still gains pleasure from the misery of others and if he is the cause of that misery, all the better.

That and he and his thug children aren't done ripping off America.

[PatSeg]

13. And he hates being alone

He needs to bounce all the crazy off of someone.

[Solly Mack]

20. Yes! You're so right about that. Spot on.

[sunonmars]

2. He rolled his last dice and it failed and he knows it.

[vlyons]

3. He would be so much happier if he resigned

Completely incapable of even performing the ceremonial duties. Forget about understanding the complexities of foreign and domestic policies. Forget about inspiring people to their better angels. Forget about inviting artists and musicians to enhance American culture. Forget about being a role model for children. His WH is a chaotic unpleasant stressful hell-hole.

All the ceremonial duties are an easy give-me. It's not going to get any better for this man.

8. I think he's not capable of being happy.

I'll bet he would give anything to go back in history and not run
for POTUS.

[vlyons]

9. I agree

He could change everything by simply working the benefit and well being of others. But we know, he won't do that.

[PatSeg]

14. Yes

He did have a good life and didn't have to live in a "dump" like the White House. Unfortunately it appears that good life was being financed in part by Russia and Vlad wanted to get his money's worth.

10. The Trump brand is completely worthless now.

No one's going to be buying Trump suits, ties, or shoes or staying in his firetrap buildings. He only has jail and lawsuits to look forward to.

He's completely finished if he leaves office, so plan on him staying there until he is physically dragged away--kicking, screaming, and clawing at the carpet with his tiny fingers.

4. When he resigns, he gets indicted. He's a puppet that has outlived its usefulness.

He's been too far in ever since the day he was inaugurated.

There's no way out for him. He sucks at making deals and will have to ride this authoritarian thing out until he dies.

He's doomed his family to this same problem. Quit, and go to jail.

[eShirl]

5. He thinks as long as he's President he's immune from prosecution.

so he's stuck

[sunonmars]

6. He should realise that the longer this goes on, the worse it will be. Make a deal and get out.

Its his only chance.

[duforsure]

7. He knows its all over with

And he won't escape Justice this time. He's probably already discussed getting a deal to get away with it. He's done that many times before . He should resign now before others close to him get into more troubles , and possibly get time. He's depressed now , and desperate, so look out for major distractions very soon from this guy. He's capable of anything at this point.

11. If he were given the right deal, he'd go.

Putin would have to sign off. That's the big problem for 45. He is very indebted to the Russians. And with the House in the dems control, he can't execute on the legislation to pay them back.

But, with the right deal. And if he were forthcoming about his problems, the country could probably guarantee his safety. But we probably can't protect children/grandchildren.

Of course this is all speculation.

But he is in over his head.

[Buckeyeblue]

12. Also both the house and the Senate have to approve a new vp

So the house could keep it open, which means the Speaker would be next in line. I'm not sure Pence is without his baggage.

[dalton99a]

15. Because he is a vandal and an arsonist.

[spanone]

16. Ego.

[Roland99]

17. or more likely...the id. In his case, a super id.

[spanone]

18. Short for idiot

[Roland99]

19. ....

Damn you!

That's twice this week someone has made me sully up my keyboard!!

[Poiuyt]

21. Because that would be an admission that he had lost

He doesn't care about anything except not losing.
