TRUMP RALLY - Wednesday, 20 January

We all know what a huckster he is. We all know what a barbaric coward he is, too.

There's NO WAY he wants to graciously hand over to the incoming President and First Lady on the steps of the White House. Hell will freeze over before he sits meekly in the background, a humiliated LOSER on the inaugural platform.

Solution?

No concession speech.

Instead, another super-spreader RALLY for the faithful, on Inauguration Day.
Or series of rallies on the same day. 70 million schmucks voted for him, remember.

Fly in on Air Force One.
Fly out on Trump Force One to the next rally or straight to Mar a Lago.

The first in a series of "Real President" (or similar dumb concept) rallies to keep his ego inflated, his seditious pot stirring and his followers well-milked of their hard earned cash.

A cheap attempt to divert attention from President Biden's Inauguration. Probably televised by the networks. Definitely televised by Fox/Sinclair stations and TrumpTV (or OANN as they are presently known). Oh, and let's not forget RSBN, Infowars, Newsmax online. And RT, of course.



Unlikely?

This is TRUMP we're talking about.

1. What about, "Go to jail, go directly to jail?"

Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200.

But, yeah, I can see that happening.

2. It's certainly not out of the realm of possibilities

especially if it is coupled with 10+ weeks of fund raising. One last fleecing of the sheep.

if they don't move out first. Maybe the WH can have a one-day yard sale. A gross of XXXL Depends for Men will be front and center.

Evict! Evict! Evict!

something along these lines.

Hard to see how if he has no way to beat this, he won't stake a flag on running in 2024 almost immediately, and start doing the things you just laid out.

And, assuming his health holds up and justice does not meet him, he WILL be their 2024 candidate, and will be extraordinarily tough to beat.

7. Then the claim that there were more people at the rally

than at the inauguration. Remember how shamelessly Sean Spicer stated that the Dotard's inauguration had the largest crowd in history?

And if he holds 3 or 4 rallies on the same day he'll be able to cobble together a total figure that sounds plausible enough to the cult (with the assistance of the RW echo chamber, Photoshop and creative photo angles)

12. He better dust off the Trump airplane.

If this is really his plan, he gets a one-way trip to one place. Hopefully it will be on Marine One to the Trump plane parked at Reagan International. He has scammed the taxpayers enough. No more taxpayer trips on our planes with our crews. It's bad enough that we have to give him Secret Service protection.

did not attend the inauguration of #3, Thomas Jefferson - he had left town already and would not return for the swearing-in.

I can see BunkerBoy going to Mar-A-Lago before Thanksgiving and not returning even for Joe's swearing-in.

I also hope the New York legal system is fired up and ready to do their job on January 20 and rain hell on the entire Trump Crime organization.

Oh, and while I'm "dreaming" - can we have a Congressional or independent Commission to investigate and offer a COMPLETE release of the Mueller Report and allow the proper authorities to act upon the information that had been withheld by Billie Barr!

Yeah, Donnie's not gonna' have "easy-goin' days" down there on the golf course!!!

I didn't know that (about Jefferson).

Yeah, he may well try to cut his losses and wait for the indictments to roll in from his resort. At least taxpayers won't be paying exorbitant rates to hire buggies for Secret Service agents anymore!
