Paul Ryan for President?

By the time the convention rolls around it might not even cause a stir to dump Trump.

If this rape charge has some legs, and lasts until the convention, then he is done. Bill Clinton just had oral sex with a consenting adult, and look at all the trouble he got into. That is NOTHING compared to this, if it is real.

Whoever they choose to replace Trump, and I DO think they will try to find someone, it will be a day late and a dollar short. Would Ryan want to commit political suicide?

Trump's Potemkin Village

Quote
Republicans are panicky, for good reason. We have seen this movie before. It’s called the Trump Taj Mahal Atlantic City.

In that, the first of his enterprises’ four bankruptcies, he convinced regulators he could raise plenty of money to complete the $1 billion project, claiming his golden name meant he wouldn’t have to rely on high-interest junk bonds, as other developers did. But then he issued junk bonds. Gamblers didn’t show up and spend the money he needed. Costs got out of control. Six months after the Taj opened in April 1990, it was in default, and nine months after that it went bankrupt, followed by two other Trump casinos.

WaPo

Republican operatives (is that not an oxymoron ?) are basically affirming that the Donald will get fired in Cleveland.
The interesting thing is that nobody seems to have a clue who they would put in his stead.
An interesting conundrum.

I think that fate would be for his running mate. Simply serving as his replacement at the convention would just make you a loser, but all Republicans better get used to being losers. They actually like being the minority in Congress: It means you can bitch about everything without have to come up with solutions. And it has the huge benefit of not being blamed when your idiotic law backfires.

Maybe some comments he made about his daughter make more sense now, considering his association with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein:
Quote
"I've known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy,'' Trump told New York magazine in a 2002 profile of Epstein written three years before Epstein began to be investigated. "He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life."

Pedophilia is right up the Donald's alley.

It's just an extension of him fantasizing about Genesis 19:32.
