I truly believe that if tfg wasn't inaugurated in 2017, he'd be financially carrying on as usual

[Siwsan]

Since nobody has ever seemed to really look into his financial scams and schemes before he announced his candidacy, why would anyone have bothered looking into them, now?

He could have carried on being a vile, tax cheating grifter.

I can't wait for this whole episode of history to end. It's exhausting having this cloud of dread hanging over the country.

5. Very possible. I was just checking on the kittens, in advance of mowing the lawn

I always feel so guilty about disturbing and/or scaring them and have to be hyper alert in case they run out in front of me.

2. Very truthful.

The big surprise that will be seen retrospectably is that it took so long for him to get caught and tried, given the enormity of the graft.

7. My reply to those 'christians' who say that it was God's Will that Trump was elected.

I agree it might have been God's Will because only the US government would have been powerful enough to bring this criminal to justice.

9. And didn't the nekkid model wife advise him against running for office?

Likely she doesn't know everything about his criminal behaviors, but seems she knew enough that public scrutiny would be his downfall. Makes one wonder what she may have agreed not to tell in exchange for her re-negotiated prenup. She made need the extra moolah to hire extra security, lest she fall down stairs and get planted in a golf course?

10. If he had just conceded the election when he lost, and gone away for good, he could still continue

In fact if he had conceded the election he would probably be running stronger against Biden right now. He screwed himself at every turn

[Kaleva]

12. I agree

[Siwsan]

13. I thought that same thing after I posted

He's probably going to be in future psychology books as a 'text book' example of a pathological liar and narcissist.

11. Yes, he invited all the scrutiny

by running for the highest office in the land. He had apparently gotten away with so much corruption for so long that he no longer feared ever being held accountable.
