Trump is screeching like a rat caught in a trap.

[fightforfreedom]

Even a rat knows when they are doomed. Trump has lost all of the protections he had while being a fake president. What we are hearing from him now is pure desperation.

I'm pretty sure calling the people investigating him mentally ill, calling the black women who are investigating him racists, will backfire.

When it comes to Trump inciting his brain dead voters, it could lead to violence, but it will be scattered violence. The violence will be crushed in the end. Trumps brain dead voters are not going to form an army to save Trump. Trumps brain dead voters are not going to take over America.

Imagine how trump is going to respond as he watches the open hearings. Imagine how he is going to respond as his top aides, lawyers are indicted. His sick brain is going to come apart at the seams.

1. 'His brain is squirming like a toad'

Be a shame if he succumbed to all that self-inflicted stress.

[NCjack]

6. Please, more lawsuits against him.

[2naSalit]

30. I still have...

Spontaneous combustion open on my tfg Bingo card!

[Sugarcoated]

40. LOL

That gave me a hearty laugh

[allegorical oracle]

35. Regretably, the man likely is a sociopath...

who typically believe in their innate superiority. And the longer they escape consequences for their anti-social behavior, the more deeply convinced they become that they could shoot someone and pay no price. That means he suffers neither shame nor stress. TFG lashes out because it gets media attention and bolsters the loyalty of his followers.

[The Wizard]

2. Will he employ the

R. Bud Dwyer exit strategy? It would increase the TV ratings.

[PCIntern]

39. Not a prayer

As an interesting sidenote, I came home from my honeymoon, switched on the TV exactly in time to see it happen live on channel 6 here in Philly.

[634-5789]

3. Every day, MAGAts are leaving the mouth breathing flock...

[Bernardo de La Paz]

25. He's not gaining any new cult members and even Senators are beginning to rebuke him. . . nt

[GoCubsGo]

4. His sick brain is already coming apart at the seams.

He has been mentally deteriorating for well over a year now. He can barely spew out his lies and projections without screwing up. And, that's what the accusations of racism and mental illness are--projection. Each rally, each interview just gets more deranged. I just hope he's at one of those rallies when his gasket finally does blow.

5. To catch a rat in a trap, someone has to set the trap.

Trump is touring the country spreading the Big Lie, pushing for autocracy. His rants are meant to scare Merrick Garland.

I see no indication that Trump is afraid, he is emboldened seeing as DOJ has not arrested a single person who wasn't associated with the riot part of the coup attempt.

Day 47 since DOJ received the Mark Meadows criminal referral.

[Fullduplexxx]

8. I dont think he's afraid . He's been getting away with his criminality all his life

I'm sure he thinks he will get past this as well

[2naSalit]

32. +1

[Wuddles440]

22. Sadly...

the January 6th Committee needs to proceed with inherent contempt for enforcing its subpoenas as it cannot rely on the DOJ to do such.

[Vinca]

7. He seems to be giving some pretty powerful evidence to the prosecution.

Maybe Rudy is giving him legal advice again.

[gab13by13]

10. To which prosecutor?

The only people investigating Trump is the select committee.

[Vinca]

13. I'm sure they're listening. All of them. In particular, Fani Willis in Georgia

who has just gotten a special grand jury convened re the Slobfather's election meddling there. If anyone gets an indictment, it's going to be her.

[Botany]

17. post # 16

Trump is looking at these people and or groups coming after him:

The NY A.G., the Manhattan D.A., the Washington D.C. A.G., the Fulton County, GA D.A., the House's 1/6/21
Committee, and the US DoJ. Plus 2 civil suits too.

[Roy Rolling]

9. The Obvious Outcome

Trump wants his followers to riot in the streets if he faces consequences for his illegal behavior. He wants his followers to challenge the U.S.Government’s security forces.

U.S. military forces are paid $700 billion a year to protect the U.S.from a hostile, violent takeover. I expect them to do the job they’re paid for. If Trump loyalists resign and form their own army like the Confederates of 1863, I expect the U.S. military to crush them.

What’s left is the corrupt egg-on-o-sphere of losers encouraging revolution from the comfort of their broadcast studios. They need to be dealt with also so any arrest of the conspiracy heads doesn’t leave an underground opposition.

[gab13by13]

14. The military's function is not to be involved in law enforcement.

C'mon man I have worked in other countries that have military police roaming the streets, we certainly don't want that here.

We do not have adequate laws that address domestic terrorism. It is up to DOJ, to Merrick Garland to investigate and if warranted, to indict everyone who is involved in overthrowing our democracy. Garland's DOJ has the authority to investigate and indict, if it does nothing then our democracy is over.

[Alexander Of Assyria]

34. Pentagon refused to obey tRump to overthrow democracy... they will obey the oath, again, to

preserve democracy in the extremely unlikely event, to the point of fantasy, of magats rising from from armchairs in zombie millions to riot in the cities…where the black folk live, remember,…so as to release the demon from the witch-hunt started by…a white man leading the DOJ…nope…fantasy.

[ecstatic]

11. He cannot be allowed to run again

Whoever has the power to stop him needs to do so, and now.

[2naSalit]

33. That would be us.

We need to make damn sure that we strengthen our power in Congress and that takes winning elections at all levels as well as Congress.

This country is not just a democratic republic, it is managed by a participatory government. We have to participate in order for it to work and work for us. I think that fact needs some public notice.

[Thomas Hurt]

12. Trump is a malignant narcissist, he always feels insecure but won't show he is afraid.

It is just the way he has avoided prison in his life. Defiance, delay and projection. Well that and he has always just tip toed this side of illegal. To the fascist, life is war.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

15. There will be dancing and celebrations taking place.

In the streets. There will be the sigh of relief that the Rule of Law held and that the US Constitution did not founder.

Crimes committed by TDFG and his minions will be addressed, prosecuted, and may that be a lesson to us all that we are a Nation of Laws, not of one msn.

[Botany]

16. "Trump is screeching like a rat caught in a trap."

Trump is looking at these people and or groups coming after him:

The NY A.G., the Manhattan D.A., the Washington D.C. A.G., the Fulton County, GA D.A., the House's 1/6/21
Committee, and the US DoJ. Plus 2 civil suits too.

Trump's if I win the POTUS again I will pardon the 1/6/21 criminals is just empty talk because his future
is very bleak.

[gab13by13]

18. Letitia James has the best case because she doesn't have to prove intent.

Her case is the civil case where Trump stands to lose a ton of money but no jail time.
The Manhattan DA does have to prove criminal intent and IMO, unless Weiselberger flips on Trump it's a hard case to win.
The Washington D.C. and Fulton county DA also have to prove criminal intent which is a high bar. Even the Rafensperger phone call must show that Trump knew he didn't win Georgia.

The select committee can only refer for criminal prosecution. It usually takes 9 days for DOJ to act on a criminal referral, it took 22 days to act on Steve Bannon and today is day 47 since the Meadows referral.

DOJ so far has only arrested people who were involved in the riot part of the coup, low hanging fruit.

I believe there are more than 2 civil suits against Trump. Several 1/6 law enforcement officers, Mary Trump, Michael Cohen, E. Jeanne Carroll, and probably more.

[Botany]

20. They all have the receipts but you are right that NY's AG has Trump's nuts in a vice.

She has filed the paperwork that if TFG doesn't answer her subpoena she will put a lien
on all of his NY State properties.

[Mr. Steve]

26. Yeah but,

Aside from a lien, I want to see the entire Trump family in either the Tombs in Manhattan or on Rikers Island as flight risks.

[gab13by13]

29. Yes, he is, in this case, caught in a trap.

If he does show up and invokes the 5th it can be used against him in the civil case.

[L. Coyote]

31. Stiff penalties on conviction may put an end to the business too.

[The Jungle 1]

19. He is already calling for violence.

He wants yuge protests in DC. We all know what that means.
The cops need to shoot the treasonous maggots this time.

[Blue Owl]

21. Hey FF45, have a cigar to celebrate the success of your latest rally

[bucolic_frolic]

23. "an army to save Trump"

which is not to say maga doesn't think it has the logistics to carry out the operation, whatever they think it to be

[Fritz Walter]

24. Hey, look at what I found!

The SORE LOSER's pandering to his base. He's trying to wring every last dollar out of them, by charging people to attend his rallies, and begging for donations for his pre-campaign war chest.

He's a con-artist. And if lying to his hard-of-thinking base will line his pockets, that's what he'll keep doing.

[thesquanderer]

27. re: "calling the black women who are investigating him racists, will backfire"

The white supremacist contingent will believe that the black investigators are exhibiting "reverse racism," going after whitey.

[L. Coyote]

28. I'll believe brains are involved after a medical examination.

The actions indicate no brains were involved.

[Mr. Ected]

36. Trump is dangerous the same way the Penguin was dangerous in the 60's series Batman

Once shed of the protections of the presidency, he's a comic-book villain on a crooked stage with a very small contingent of foot soldiers kissing his silly ass. The Republican base will not take to the streets for weeks on end to support this little man. They'll talk amongst themselves about it but it won't amount to anything. They're too busy at work or too ensconced on mom's couch. All of this is laughable.

[fightforfreedom]

37. Good post.

[senseandsensibility]

38. I agree, or would like to, but he does have

a very powerful media empire in his pocket and even CNN builds him up by talking about a possible run every day.
