Will Trump Need to be Put On Suicide Watch After Losing? [View all]

Seriously.

Considering his reported love for the infamous German dictator's story and his obvious future with likely dire legal complications in the face of a loss, I think it is something we should consider.

Sure, the thought might sound entertaining to some but I would expect Joe and the national Democratic party will be ready for any such event. After all it is not beyond imagination to expect the GOP to play it to their advantage during the transition. In ways that will be gross and possibly effective. And they would use it unsparingly and shamelessly to retain as much power in the Senate as possible.

I'm sure we will be prepared by pointing out the tragedy of suicide (my two brother-in-laws where victims at young age, plus a close friend) on national and local political levels.

I'm also sure that all of us here at DU will be ready to react with grace, in the event it actually happens.
