The amount of criminal investigations into Trump have reached staggering levels.

I cannot think of anyone in my lifetime who has faced more serious criminal charges than Trump is facing. It is so incomprehensible because Trump just keeps on committing more crimes. It's like he just doesn't care. He gets up in the morning, goes to a rally tells the same old lies. He gets on line and acts like he has done nothing wrong. He is truly one of the greatest narcissists in history.

Trump is now facing 3 major criminal investigation. All come with multiple felony charges. He is facing a serious civil trial which could ruin him financial, plus countless other lawsuits. Trump gets up everyday and repeats they same old shit day after day like nothing is happening.

I have been around for over sixty years and I have never seen anything as bizarre as I am witnessing now and the past few years. It tests your sanity.

Lock him up he's never had serious consequences in his pampered life time to pay the piper.

With Trump there is always no bottom. As low as he goes you can count that there's always more, deeper sh*t and worse. Ironically and amazingly he is still walking around as a free man and a third to half of the country would cheerfully vote for him today.

Why should he? His crimes extend back decades, not just to his presidency. And the number of consequences faced in terms of arrests/prison time sits stubbornly at 0.

He's been nailed in the wallet a few times (Trump University for example) but if you are stealing hundreds of millions at a time and only getting busted for millions, that's a pretty good success rate anyone would be happy to continue.

10. In my opinion, what he is facing now, is not survivable.

The lunatic went too far this time. Trump is not the first person to get away with almost everything for decades and then go too far in the end. People like Trump go down hard in the end.

All lie’s perpetrated by his political enemies to keep him from running in ‘24. They have completely looked away and turned off their brains when it comes to this guy

As long as the money keeps rolling in, he'll continue.

Close that spigot and I bet he stops.
