Capitol Hill Blue Forums Political Issues The Trump Administration Post-Election Mischief

Donald Trump's reality TV show, The Apprentice: POTUS Edition, decomposes into a snuff film right before our eyes.

This is just the season finale. The network canceled the show and the fans are little disgruntled. Games of thrones often end badly.

But...another network might pick up the shitshow...we haven't seen the last of Trump and his minions.

Do you think he might try a hostile takeover of another country full of gullible rubes? Maybe Russia...

Vlad is a real alpha, he's not gonna let some orange make-up wearing, bobby-pinned hair-wearing beta cuckold take over his country.

I have two worries. The first is that he gets the house and senate to challenge the vote and get into a pissing contest that Biden inherits.

The Second thing is that he runs to Russia to live out his life as its gonna get real bad. There are, at the very least, two full years of law suits and he is likely to lose them all. In addition to all of that I am sure that the next AG is going to investigate the entire Trump family and its also likely that most of the money he has scammed whilst President will be take as what he will have done will probably be illegal.

I wonder if Russia would even take him! It would probably be more interesting if they deny him entry and then proceed to tell the world about how they ran him during his presidency and was a flat out traitor.

The interesting thing for all his thugs with pardons, is that he can't pardon them for future crimes. If a federal grand jury subpoenas them, the FBI will enforce those. In front of the grand jury, they can either refuse to testify and rot in jail for contempt for as long as any grand jury is in session that wants their testimony, or they can testify about Trump's crimes. If they tell the truth, Trump goes down. If they tell lies, they go down for perjury.

Trump made a fundamental mistake: Never pardon any of your fellow conspirators, because now they can't claim the 5th Amendment to refuse to testify.

Trump continually shows that he is not the sharpest tool in the shed.

We are all, regardless of political stuff are absolutely thrilled with our Dear Leader's capacity for self destruction. It is just another little example of why the man has an almost flawless capacity for losing!

The truly amazing thing is that his base doesn't quite see it that way. They think that this current silly is an example of just how straight forward he is! His next example may be holding a gun to his head and pulling the trigger to prove it isn't loaded.

One can only wonder...........

I guess you guys have not been paying attention to the continuing efforts by Republicans to overthrow a duly elected president.

We have a number of state legislatures now willing to decertify the vote in those states.
We have suits filed in a number of courts to overthrow election results.
We now have not just one but many US Rep's willing to post objections to slates of electors from battleground states but apparently they may have supporting senators.

When is a coup over?

Hint: it is not when you say it is over.

I suspect we would all prefer not to spend too much time on that stuff as it scares the crap out of us. I also think we all know its going on and we probably believe that the system, so far, as rejected most of this stuff and they will continue to do so.

I, for one, hope so.... After all, we only have a president which a surprising amount of people tend to believe is insane. We also have something around 40% of the voting public who support the end of the United States democracy in favor of an insane leader. One can only wonder what's next!
