22. Trump will never resign

Tue Nov 5, 2019, 03:23 PM

Nov 2019

In fact, he'll only go kicking and screaming. Even IF the Senate does the right thing. Because it makes great Reality TV. Maximum sympathy generation for his cult. And it will help back up his CT that it was some kind of coup.

All so he is set up in a good position to start his own media empire when he leaves. He may not even have to put up any of his own money for it. Like his buildings, he gets paid for agreeing they can stamp his name on the front, to increase its value and popularity. (which may not work so well in the future). But would work great for a deplorable run conspiracy theory network.
