President Donald Trump has told advisers he wants to find and prosecute the person who leaked the fact he went to the White House bunker as protests escalated in Washington, D.C. earlier this month, according to three sources who spoke to The New York Times. The president later claimed that he had gone into the bunker only for an “inspection,” something he’d done several times before. Attorney General William Barr contradicted that statement on June 8, stating that the Secret Service took Trump into the bunker because of “violent demonstrations” outside the White House.

The Times reports that advisers have warned Trump that his divisive behavior could lead to a November election defeat. However, according to people close to the him, he seems unwilling to alter his behavior and is unexcited about the prospect of four more years in power. He’s ready to point the blame if he loses, the Times reports, to the coronavirus pandemic and to Democrats “stealing” the election from him.

6. Trump Idiot (n/t)

[sakabatou]

7. Trump keeps lashing out like a brat

[cos dem]

8. Interesting idea. "I don't care if I lose, as long as I can blame it on someone else."

It actually fits with his personality and his career.

I'm OK with it.

[moonscape]

17. Me too. Stunningly-wonderful news, if true. n/t

[jaysunb]

9. It must be nice to have your own prosecutors available at all times. Nt

[Maxheader]

10. I told them stumpy...

Figured a coward like you and cheny would react the same..

[Thomas Hurt]

11. It must piss him off he can't have people offed or summarily imprisoned, freak.

[Blue Owl]

12. Wasn't it just an inspection, little Donny?

Or was that just another fucking lie too?

[PSPS]

13. "is unexcited about the prospect of four more years ... is ready to point the blame if he loses ..."

That works for me and the rest of the world! Hurry up and lose already!

[bucolic_frolic]

14. Their messaging has become inconsistent which means they are losing it

Personally, I think the best outcome is if he goes crazy before election day, just without much in the way of detrimental consequences.

Also possible is, like in this article, the hissy fit is so preposterous and over the top as to be laughable. Laughing him out of office would be just rewards.

Corona pandemic is now beyond his control. I doubt he could get ahead of it with an instantaneous nationwide lockdown and curfew which he doesn't believe in anyway.

The economic fallout is also fearsome. Red ink, inflation, stock outs, job losses of unknown duration and permanence.

There are gurus on YouTube who believe Corona was deliberate cover for a Fed takeover of the world, and Trump has been a pawn all along. But to me a lot of pieces don't fit there.

15. Trump is "unexcited about the prospect of four more years in power"

[murielm99]

25. He didn't want the job in the first place.

I will never forget his deer-in-the-headlights look on election night.

[cstanleytech]

16. The first thing he needs to be ready to do is flee the country on his last day in office

to a friendly country that is unlikely to extradite him such as Russia.

[moonscape]

18. I'm not sure even Putin would want him n/t

[Mr.Bill]

23. Putin will execute him

for not coming through with his end of the bargain. If Putin thought he would, he's the idiot here.

[robbob]

46. Bah, it was a win-win for Putin.

If Donald turned out to be a competent puppet he would have had a whole wish list of Russian demands fulfilled, but since Donald turned out to be a completely incompetent buffoon Putin has instead a USA in shambles, divided and losing power both economically and on the world stage.

Now the oligarchs who want their money back; well, that might be a different story.

[cstanleytech]

32. Depends on what he has to offer. For example he could offer up a list of any spies the US has inside

Russia and as President that is information he has potential access to.

[moonscape]

33. I suspect that has already happened! n/t

[keithbvadu2]

20. Idi Amin went to Saudi Arabia

[world wide wally]

27. Or maybe Brazil with the rest of the boys

[aquamarina]

21. Oh FFS

Dotard truly is the biggest, pansy-assed snowflake in the universe.

[elleng]

22. 'he seems unwilling to alter his behavior and

is unexcited about the prospect of four more years in power.'

[moose65]

24. Prosecute?

Jesus. What could he possibly charge the person with? It’s not a crime to tell the truth about what happened. Trump is just pissed that he can’t fire people or make them go away with a wave of his hand 🙄

[Mr.Bill]

26. Tell him it was Barr who did it. n/t

[BigmanPigman]

30. Perfect!

[flibbitygiblets]

35. Barr confirmed it...and it to a reporter. "Prosecute" him!

[Midnightwalk]

28. I want some discovery

Like how many pieces of gum were on the bottom of the table he hid under.

It would be great if everyone tweeted admitting they were the one who leaked his cowardice.

Somehow this comes to mind

29. Idiot thinks he's king

[no_hypocrisy]

31. What, Trump doesn't want to execute The Leaker?

Sounds like he's in a pretty good mood these days . . . . . . .

[flibbitygiblets]

34. "Trump is unexcited about the prospect of four more years in power"

Imagine how the rest of us feel. "Unexcited" doesn't even scratch the f**king surface.

If it weren't for all the crimes, he could just spend his remaining years golfing. Instead he'll spend his remaining years in court, then probably jail. Not to mention Pooty ain't going to let him off that easy.
It's the ultimate irony: We don't want him and he doesn't want the job. Yet he has no choice.

[oldsoftie]

36. He always wants to prosecute people for things that aent illegal. idiot

[niyad]

37. On what grounds does iq45* think the individual can be prosecuted. iq45* is our EMPLOYEE,

we are his BOSSES, and, as such, we have a right to know how and where he is spending his time on OUR dime.

[Warpy]

38. Prosecute? For WHAT, exactly?

Nothing much was said, the lights were turned out. The news didn't really break until he was out, as I recall it was about 5 minutes between "he's in" and "he's out."

Fucking sensitive little flower, aint he?

[Rebl2]

39. Barr told

everybody by contradicting and saying the S.S. took him to the bunker. Wish they had just left him there.

[Scarsdale]

40. I have no doubt that

tRump "leaked" on his way to the bunker! No doubt there is a good supply of Depends there for his flabby arse.

[herding cats]

41. He's such a vengeful little man.

Being mean and vengeful, to his stunted brain, seems like strength.

I cannot wait for him and his stain to be regulated to history.

[NBachers]

42. Amuse me, The Donald - Say more funny things to make me laugh at you again and again.

[raccoon]

43. What a sniveling whiny coward he is. Nt

[Marcuse]

45. Presidential Executive Inspection
