-snip-

I think Trump wasn't really kidding when he told crowds at his rallies that if he lost, people would "never see" him again. He is not a man who can stomach losing. He has weaseled his way out of debt, ghosted contractors, failed to pay massive bills, and walked away from bankruptcy over and over again. He has been caught in lies, and he has reportedly gotten away with massive tax-avoidance schemes. I cannot imagine him clapping politely at the inauguration while Joe Biden is sworn in as the 46th president of the United States of America.

It's not as if he feels he has pressing matters at the White House — he had an incredibly light schedule for a president anyway — and he never cared much for passing legislation. The work of the presidency has never interested him, just the power.

And if the power is fading, then what's the appeal? Do you think Donald Trump will enjoy being referred to as a "lame-duck president"?

Hell no. Watch him ghost us.



When push comes to shove, he always backs down.

Because Trump's got 10 weeks stretching out before him with nothing to do but make mischief. Ghosting the country would be a lot better.
