Never Trump Republican predicts surprise Walter Reed visit an 'excuse' to resign for 'health reason'

.

Conservative pundit Cheri Jacobus suggested the visit was a political move to tee up Trump’s resignation — and pardoning.

She said Trump is “getting his annual physical 3 months early is so he can quickly resign for alleged ‘health reasons’ now that he’s guilty as hell and has nowhere left to run and hide.”

If Trump resigned, Vice President Mike Pence would ascend to the Oval Office.

“Trump’s annual physical isn’t until February but he’s going in now for ‘portions’ of it? He just needs an excuse in case he needs to resign and get a ‘compassion’ pardon from Pence,” she predicted.

His excuse to resign as the evidence piles up. Get his compassion pardon.

We already know he's nuttier than a fruitcake.

Oh, and also, if he's looking for anyone to be worried about his health, I'm guessing there aren't many out there that would care if he was actually ailing. I'm saving my "I Really Don't Care Do U?" jacket for that moment.

Can't say I disagree. We'll see soon enough, IMO, if he skips his Sunday morning ritual of pulling 8 pounds of foreskin down to his neck and flinging chunks of smegma into twitter. If his prime directive becomes generating sympathy for his feeble ass, he can't be tweeting insults like someone who aspires to live to 200.

Trump has always bailed when push comes to shove -- how many bankruptcies has he filed?

What he's doing to this country is just another bankruptcy for him, I would bet.

.

Perhaps that's why he moved to Florida, next to Miami Airport.

If shit hits the fan, one of his Sunny Isles Russian friends can quickly spirit him out of the country.


Two years ago, Reuters reported that least 63 Russians had spent $98.4 million buying condos in the six Trump-branded luxury towers in Sunny Isles and a seventh in Hollywood. Plus, another 703 units in the seven Trump buildings had been purchased by so-called limited liability companies, LLCs, that mask the owners’ identities.

In 2016, a Miami Herald investigation found that dozens of Sunny Isles condos, many in Trump-branded properties, had been purchased by Russians suspected of illicit doings. International fraud investigators suggest that Sunny Isles real estate provides corrupt Russian officials an anonymous place to invest their loot, safe from the scrutiny of cops and tax collectors back home. No wonder they call Sunny Isles Moscow-by-the-Sea.

Russia, the Middle East, and Asia are really the only areas we don't have extradition treaties with.

But if Trump flees to Russia, why would Putin put up with him? He won't be of any value to Putin anymore.

healthiest president ever (I have heard this idiotic comment once describing this numb nuts.) Talk about being so far off the mark. This is definitely one of them.

He's crammed so much crap, etc. into every single hole he has on his body, that I'm surprised that he literally hasn't exploded from the inside out from drug overdoses and/or worst. And, remember, he did this all by himself, no one else to blame but him and his decadent behaviors.

Disgusting. And I won't wish him 'get well' wishes. No way. The get well wishes I have are reserved for those truly suffering from this disgusting administration's immigration policies, their ignorant policies to try and strip medical insurance from millions of people, the disgusting way they are criminally increasing the nation's debt just to suit $billionaires and $millionaires, when not needed, I could go on and on...

Being pResident and ordering minions around is the only thing keeping his ass out of prison.

Leaving office early, even for serious medical issues, will make him a loser in his own eyes. He's going to fight until after the bitter end (think Daryl Hannah's character in Kill Bill).

Saying that doesn't give any credit to Trump.

I don't buy it because he's an arrogant narcissistic prick, and his mind won't let him believe there's anything ahead but a "full vindication" from McConnell, just like Barr with the Mueller report.

I'm not convinced that even if he got the Nixon "you are going DOWN" visit from Republicans that he'd quit.

Not because he's tough.

Because he's a narcissistic asshole.
