that he's looking for an escape hatch. He HATES his job! Not as much as we hate him, but still........

He could quit, citing severe health issues, get Pence to pardon him for any potential federal crimes, and somehow find a way to plead away his state indictments with the same health stuff.

Don't know if there's any way to make that work, but I would bet that he's looked at it. Bully Barr can only do so much.

He will give a.... "You don't
deserve my beautiful wickedness speech" and leave the JOB he hates with every fiber of his being.

He believes, as most successful criminals do, that he can continue to bullshit his way through the courts, but I think he is about at the end of his legal petard.

The scared little abused boy in him knows he's screwed and wants to run away from home.

Which one wins the battle?

be forever brander a LOSER. This way he can always bullshit his way around it... "You know the deep state and George Soros would never have let me win that election...they planned to steal it. I protected the country from having to go through a contested election... blah...blah...blah."

That's what happens to people who constantly try to BS their way through life. They have to be a few lies ahead just to stay even.

So, which one of the Republicans is gonna win the lottery to be on the ticket? Doubt it will be Pence.

He also reads polls

When the writing is on the wall, he'll get "sick" and resign. Pence will pardon him.
GOP will protect him because Trump has dirt on them.
GOP will run Nikki Haley or someone more popular to get them back in the power retention game.

He's filed for bankruptcy several times. He'll fold before going down to humiliating defeat.

so it no longer needs him at the helm. He'll claim he's accomplished all his goals, then retire to a life of lawsuits (by him or against him, makes little difference). He'll never even hint at being ill, mentally or physically.
