Donald Trump will be more "presidential" than we have ever seen him?
Because he needs Republican Senators to not vote to convict. Because conviction ends his political career and the Trump gravy train.
So he must act as if it is all a "hoax" and a "witch-hunt" by the Democrats. The Republicans must set aside the reality of what happened a week ago and who was responsible?
This will be his biggest role yet as a reality TV star. They must believe what he tells them, not what they have seen with their own eyes and heard with their own ears.
He will work overtime to demonize the "far-left, socialist" Democrats.
He only has a few days to persuade enough Republicans to ignore his crimes and his betrayal of this nation.
Will he be successful?
That is the only game he has left.
