His act doesn't work anymore. Everybody has seen the show a thousand times. Even his kids are bailing on him. Big donors are bailing on him. Republicans in Congress are bailing on him.
All the investigations are closing in on him. That is a bad combination for Trump.
Fuck Trump. There is one final act in the Trump freak show. His downfall.

(935 posts)Theyre so rabid and ignorant. Just like him, they have no sense of community. Theyll bite their own noses off to spite their faces. It will be a massive shitshow.

(61,608 posts)It's been like witnessing a slow-motion car accident, right next to it, dodging wreckage, unable to stop it. Living in a horror movie. Trying to reason with people who refused to see it.
It will end badly for Trump. But a lot of things will be broken.

(19,066 posts)Sure, if things go wrong for Dems, Trump has an outside chance to win. But he's realized these last 6 years, that running for President is the easiest grift of all time. He is taking most of the money the RNC is getting and funneling it through his businesses. His entire life is expenses away as a campaign expense.
You saw him hold onto $85M while his candidate's campaigns starved in this election. That's his money in his mind, he's not giving a penny to anyone who doesn't publicly grovel. And he'll ride this gravy train into the ground, not until the last dime is grifted will he quit.
My prediction is that he loses the primaries and still won't quit, he'll threaten a 3rd party run before the convention. And there will be lawsuits because he'll refuse to give up a dime of the Republican campaign cash he has been collecting.

Investigate election fraud.
Fix the unfair tax structure.
Stop crime..... immigrants cause crime
That would have carried him through a year of rallies where he could grift, maybe another $100m from the rubes.
