Trump's comments about "not voting" is a sign of desperation..

[kentuck]

In effect, he is telling Republican leaders to either stick with him during these tough times or he will tell his supporters to not vote in the next election. It is sort of similar to extortion.

He is desperate because the chickens are finally coming home to roost. His allies are due to report for a subpoena today and tomorrow. Even though he has advised them to declare "executive privilege, there really is not much he can do to save them. He cannot stop the documents from being turned over to the Select Committee. He cannot lie or deceive his way out this time.

It is just a matter of time before everyone sees that the king has no clothes. He will stand naked before the world.

Today is just the beginning.

1. I can only hope he keeps pushing the envelope until

he demands that they kiss his bare fat ass live on TV or he'll refuse to endorse them.

What a grand spectacle that would be for his minions.

[toughtony]

29. Some Will Be Happy To Do It!

Then change his crappy diaper afterwards.

[lagomorph777]

2. I think he should do that.

[malaise]

4. I disagree

It is more proof that he is a fucking lunatic - a narcissist on steroids who believes that any institution or individuals who will not defer to his absurd sense of importance and entitlement must be destroyed.

This 75 year old loser and king of bankruptcy believes he is the chosen one and nothing will be spared to further his agenda.
Lock him up!

It is way past lock up time.

[kentuck]

5. That too.

[malaise]

9. It could be both

because his end is nigh! - he is a cornered rat

[kentuck]

14. I think he is beginning to feel cornered.

His lies and deception are not working as he had hoped.

[PortTack]

25. Indeed! He is a cornered rat..a plague rat at that

[CincyDem]

6. Maybe...but it might be The Big Lie v.2

When all the republicans stay home in 2022 and Dems win, the new message will be “it’s illegitimate because Republican voters didn’t participate”. Sounds looney but it fuels the aggrieved how will likely believe an election without them must be fake.

And some meaningful percent of the base will buy it hook line and sinker.

[sunonmars]

11. If it hands us the house and better control of the senate, then screw them, we can do lots then.

[CincyDem]

18. Oh absolutely. And I'm all for it.

I’m just less sure this move is desperation vs pre-framing the loss to his faithful. But yeah…with a full house and a senate not dependent on Manchin/Synema…rock n roll time for sure.

[agingdem]

7. talk about "voter suppression"!

all those rabid Republican governors and their obsession with denying 'the other" the right to vote just got kicked an "own goal" by none other than Trump, their supreme sociopath...

[Eyeball_Kid]

8. It IS extortion.

And it’s in public view. How the rest of the GOP can just swallow their gum and cow-tow seems to be against human nature. I suspect that a lot of borderline fascists will turn around and give Trump a big, fat “fuck you.”

[The_Counsel]

10. "It Is Just a Matter of Time Before Everyone Sees That the King Has No Clothes..."

"It is just a matter of time before everyone sees that the king has no clothes. He will stand naked before the world."

Again.

It would be great if the Orange Menace would finally be brought to justice for a change. I wish I could hold my breath, but I like living...

[Ray Bruns]

30. It is just a matter of time before everyone sees that the king has no clothes. He will stand naked

[Yonnie3]

12. I heartily endorse this "not voting" variant of cancel culture

Cancel away MAGAts!

[sunonmars]

13. They blame him for the loss of both Georgia senate seats due to this, I see no downside....

they have a choice, vote or don't, I hope they don't because lots of good democrats will then be elected.

The non participation thing is up to them.

[PortTack]

26. A TikTok poster had FB posts of tfg supporters already saying if he says don't vote they won't

[MineralMan]

15. Trump Naked? Do. Not. Want.

[kentuck]

16. :-)

Not literally.

[PatSeg]

17. "It is sort of similar to extortion."

Trump speaks fluent extortion. He has based most of his career around it. A bully as a child, he grew up to be a mob boss style adult bully.

I agree that this reeks of desperation. I think he's running out of effective threats.

[Firestorm49]

19. Not soon enough, Kentuck, not soon enough.

[kentuck]

20. I agree but...

...there does seem to be a light at the end of the tunnel.

Hopefully, it's not a train.

[Cosmocat]

21. Not even remotely the read I have

It is him continuing to keep his boot on the throats of the party, routine show of force to keep them subservient.

The next time he faces any real consequences for his actions will be the first.

He lost an election and we BARELY got him out of office - Hitler lost in his first coup attempt and actually went to jail.

We have seen this HE IS GOING DOWN THIS TIME STUFF for over five years now, people were going it before he even got elected.

[PortTack]

27. Agree he is "trying" to keep his knee on the neck of the party, and the elected officials have been

Going along with him, but he’s talking to his cult. The party leaders can’t do anything about his demands, but his idiot cult can...and will, as was proven in the GA runoff.

[redstatebluegirl]

22. He is a mob boss "great party you have there, be a shame if it blew up".

[smb]

23. MAGAtroids, You Have Your Orders Straight From OompaLoompa45 Himself! DON'T VOTE!! nt

[smb]

24. Thank You For That Mental Image....

It is just a matter of time before everyone sees that the king has no clothes. He will stand naked before the world.

[lees1975]

28. Anyone who would follow this Fascist

isn't in their right mind.

[KS Toronado]

31. We want his subjects to follow this Fascist king away from the voting booth.
