6. I've Been Warning People To Watch Out For It For A Long Time Now.......

..........but even I think it's too late for him now. Anything he does now will reek of desperation and the vast majority of the American people will see right through it (his faithful 20% will never see through anything he does, but they're too far gone now anyway). All of the "reasoned and deliberate" things he's been doing the last few months have fallen flat because most Americans are waking up to the fact that he's insincere and ONLY doing these things because he wants to be re-elected.

So again I say, if he tries to salvage his image by starting a war, I think it will backfire on him spectacularly, just like the whole photo op in front of the church did. I think the vast majority of Americans have seen through his bullshit and have already made up their minds about him.

Just my opinion, but I think at this point, he KNOWS he's going to lose, and his one main focus is building up his "brand" so he can leave office and step into something profitable (I believe he's going to start his own TV network where he'll appear every night and try to take things even further right than Faux). That and keeping his ass out of prison.
