Because of this narrow defeat, Trump isnt going anywhere.... Oh, and this is good for Trump's ego...when he loses he can claim that he was cheated and really didn't lose...and now unfortunately he isn't going anywhere, not are his fanatics....a sound defeat would of gotten rid of him...I wouldn't be surprised if he runs in 2024 i.e Grover Cleveland

(10,198 posts)Defamation and libel suits are just a start. I believe NY AG will go after him for taxes. Possibly even the US IRS. Don't forget his campaign has millions in unpaid bills. And there are those missing inaugural funds. Trump will be up to his eyeballs in legal troubles.

If he ran in 2024, he would only lose again.
He's done.

(15,359 posts)Worst case scenario is that because America is what it is, and Trump is... "rich," he won't be held liable for a lot of his crimes. He'll go ahead and declare for 2024 to begin fund-raising. From there, there are these possibilities
1. He's doing it just to get the money
2. He actually does want to run again
3. It will go toward a candidacy for Ivanka who has her sights set on becoming the first female president. This scenario will also help protect him again.
I honestly don't know which is more likely with him - does his ego (demanding another shot at Biden) rule over his love of scamming people out of money? Will he think becoming president again benefits him more financially than just grfiting the money? Will his ego be satisfied at trying to establish a political dynasty?

(13,650 posts)Trump would win in 2024. Sure, he'll get past the primaries but he'll have the loser stench on him from losing this election.

(2,196 posts)Its been discussed that when he loses he will immediately declare his candidacy for 2024 and start campaigning. The media will just have to learn to ignore him as Joe gets on with running the country. I doubt that he will be alive or physically able to run again. Prob jr or princess sparkle pony will step in. As for his jerk cultists-they werent going anywhere either. We have a lot of learning to do and work to do to be able to counter the next idiot onslaught in 4 years.
