Even if hes defeated in the election he will spend the rest of his miserable attention-seeking life continuing to divide the country and say inappropriate things. And the complicit media will gladly oblige.
Ugh.

(13,548 posts)His cultists will flock to them like lemmings.
When he's not doing that he'll be on either Fox or OAN every day spewing his lies.
And oh, he'll be running for '24.

(4,112 posts)1. We won't be in attendance.
2. We don't watch Fox or OAN.
3. He has to live that long, and I'm deeply skeptical of that prospect. Plus, he's got $421,000,000 to repay first. Good luck with that!

(1,202 posts)We cannot rule out that Trump may sell secrets to a foreign government. We know he cares about money and himself perhaps above all else. Selling our secrets would not only get him much needed money, but also affect the current USA government/president. If anybody is capable of doing it, I believe he would.
MANative
(4,112 posts)Yes, I think many of us share the same concern. That's one of the reasons it's so important to get the jerk behind bars. I still think he'll stroke out when he loses.

(12,265 posts)My husband and I talked about this last night. He would sell one of his kids for money and he will need it when he loses.

(6,900 posts)or fighting to stay out. His cult will shrink to a minuscule core. Even Fox News will find a new anti-hero to promote their hate television.
Mike 03
(16,616 posts)will buy a controlling share of the OANN (One America News Network) and Trump, and maybe some of his kids, will have talk shows on there that very few people will watch, and that the MSM will not cover. Even Fox will ignore him because OANN is a competitor.
He will huff and puff himself into obscurity.

(22,035 posts)After he loses, Trump will make lots of noise for the months of the transition. But after the inauguration, he'll be irrelevant and there will be so much more pertinent news to report. I actually think the MSM will be glad to see him gone!
So, little by little, Trump will fizzle out. We'll hear about his many court cases and his cries of "fake news" but in the end, he'll be finished. Even if he tries to hold his rallies, his crowds will quickly shrink since he's got nothing new to say and he'll be out of power. What more can he do for his followers?
As far as him running in 2024, I can only chuckle. If he's still alive, not imprisoned and still has some money left, he'll have been exposed as the phony and failure that he is. Even Republicans will shun him. Once he's out, he's done.
Just my opinion but I really think the clown show is coming to an end, thankfully.

Trump is not sane enough to know he's going to jail, he's not going to care about that.

vlyons
(10,252 posts)All phenomena are impermanent. After the election, there will be an independent criminal investigation PLUS all the NY tax litigation against him. Congress will get his tax returns, and he will be convicted of many many crimes -- crimes we don't even know about yet. The Russians aren't going to lend him any more money. His mortgaged properties will fall into foreclosure. No one will do business with him. His brand is trash. And history will label him the worst POTUS, the most corrupt POTUS, and what will hurt him the most --
the most stupid POTUS ever.
Now his MAGAt supporters will not go away. They will latch on to the next degenerate con man grifter. But over time, they will crawl back under their slimey rocks, as Dem policy begins to create good jobs, affordable healthcare, good education, equal justice, etc. etc.

(33,327 posts)as will McConnell's. Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, and Barrett are all younger than me and will serve on the SCOTUS for 3+ decades.
But Trump? The GOP can't wait to be rid of him.
