Trump is never, ever going away is he?
He's always going to be in the news, holding hate rallies, threatening people on social media and making millions off lying to his supporters
And let's be honest. He's never, ever going to be indicted or spend a minute in jail. Look at how crazy his cult reacted to a simple FBI search of his home. Think any prosecutor is going to dare put Trump on trial if it's going to unleash his mob of other well armed domestic terrorists who want to burn the country down?
And he's never going to stop running for President or concede when he loses (again). And if the apocalypse happens and he somehow manages to win in 2024 he's never, ever leaving the White House again voluntarily.
At this point the only thing that can stop Donald Trump is Donald Trump. Maybe he'll suddenly have a spiritual awakening and realize there's more to life than practicing the seven deadly sins every day. But at his age I doubt he's capable of changing who he is. Unfortunately he's definitely changed America for the worse and isn't done yet.

There are too many different investigations closing in on him. His allies are abandoning him. Trump cannot get good lawyers to represent him.

(759 posts)It just seems the more crimes he commits and the more he's investigated the more money he raises. He's an absolute freak of nature.

(759 posts)It will be like that movie "The Death Of Stalin." Trump's followers will refuse to admit he's actually dead and will call it a conspiracy.

(2,694 posts)And remember whenever he either perishes or has a life altering Heart Attack or Stroke, he will disappear fairly quickly. He is a media darling, but once he can't project a clear voice it will be game over. There are no viable Heirs. No one other than the FL Governor is even close. Gov D scares me even more than my fear of T, I knew we were in trouble in June of 2015.

(759 posts)He gets more coverage now than he did in 2015. You'd think he was still President the way cable news covers him every day.
And half the time they still call him "President Trump" and not "former President."

(3,461 posts)His style of hate politics is on the rise and its easy to see why, people like this stuff. They like the bravado and bullying, they like the threats, they like the violence. They really want their version of religious rule and they really want to be able to kill us. Literally kill anyone who doesnt toe their line. He certainly didnt start it, this was always the right wing dream, but he fast forwarded the agenda by at least a decade.
Quite frankly, I think the old paleo-cons and neocons hate him more because they really wish they could be him than because theyre outraged by his actions. They didnt know it would be this easy.

(110,950 posts)...exposed America?
He just gave them license to be themselves. If they wanted to be an asshole, then he would show them how to do it. If they wanted to act like a criminal, then he would be their boss.
But, like everyone else, he's got to walk that lonesome valley.

(41,915 posts)We were caught by surprise the first time. We were ready the second time and he lost, lost, LOST. People are willing to say all kinds of stupid things on social media and cable media but the number of people willing to actually risk their comfy little lives, no matter how drunk they are on koolaid, is not very big. The number willing to vote on both sides is enormous, but I think weve got them beat.
Hes also old, his support system is full of both holes and snakes, and I dont see many whore capable rather than just loud coming on board. As soon as he shows signs of weakness the ones hanging on now are going to bail.
Forever? Goodness. Thats koolaid too.

(759 posts)We beat him by 7 million votes and 2 years later he still dominates the news.
The media is still hopelessly addicted to covering his never-ending chaos. And they're convinced (hoping?) that he'll win the Republican nomination in 2024.
If we beat him by 20 million votes in 2024 I'd still be shocked if he went away.

(32,606 posts)I think too if we maintain the house and senate this fall, he will be muted. Fux is dumping him, they want the advert dollars of all the primary candidates, not just his.

(7,455 posts)The narrative would be that he could get his fellow fascist dipshits primary wins but they are costing the repubs nationally in a year when the incumbent party should lose. I think (hope) that would be at least a slow slide into irrelevance for the POS. Then maybe he could scarf down one chicken leg too many and take a step toward that heart attack we are all hoping for.

(51,308 posts)I see more than a dozen threads about him daily. I don't know how many stickies are about him on the Grovelbot page, but there are a lot.
We really need a forum just for those who allow him to live rent-free in their heads. Sick of so many threads about him, and it's impossible to trash all the threads every time I log in.
