28. He's wrong for many reasons
Thu Nov 12, 2020, 03:20 PM
Nov 2020

1) Trump is insane and will continue to mentally unravel
2) Most likely he will be in jail
3) GOP doesn’t want this master of chaos back in the White House regardless of their outward support
4) Trump’s supporters have a very short attention span


What I AM worried about though is a smarter Trump-like candidate. Trump has revealed just how far the GOP can go, literally breaking laws (Hatch Act, Collusion, Emoluments Clause) with ZERO repercussions.

If anything, Trump’s Presidency has revealed that our “Checks and Balances” are an illusion. Trump is stupid and ended up hurting himself in the end. Trump did more to end his own Presidency than anything the Democratic Party was able to do.

Now think of a Trump-like candidate who has more political savvy and more intelligence. That’s what scares the heck out of me.
