Democrats are bracing for a more emboldened President Trump now that his acquittal is at hand, beginning with Tuesdays State of the Union address before a nationally televised audience.
Rather than seeking to unify Congress and the nation with remorse, Democrats expect Trump to ratchet up his rhetoric of grievance on the eve of Senate impeachment votes that are all but certain to acquit him for abuse of power and obstructing Congress.
Whatever happens he claims that its a victory for him, in many instances when its far from it. So thats what hell say, Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), a 2020 presidential contender, said during a break in Mondays closing arguments by the prosecutors and the presidents defense team.
For a while he might almost be like a cartoon-figure president, said Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), comparing the president to the Incredible Hulk breaking off chains holding him down. The guardrails are gone.

(11,760 posts)The thing is that anyone can behave like an asshole occasionally. The idiot in the White House cannot stop himself from being an asshole. It is just what and who he is.
