(100,133 posts)And don't say it was the Electoral College. Jill Stein sliced into Hillary's margin in just those critical states -- only those critical states, and then there was sabotage from Russia, voter suppression tactics, New Jim Crow. It took a lot of cheating to get Trump to the White House.
He has to be forced out of office before then, or we are lost.
Consider this about his character, however: he has a lifelong history of jumping ship when things go sour for him. Bankruptcy after bankruptcy after bankruptcy in the business world. He has no honor, he has no compunction about not paying his debts nor about not leaving people in the lurch.
If he starts thinking that wrecking the US is just like another bankruptcy, that might help him decide to leave. Being POTUS is certainly not what he expected, and no fun for him any more.
But he needs an excuse. How about his health? What the devil was he doing motoring over to Walter Reed late Saturday afternoon? Hmmmm.
