In reply to the discussion: Trump telling PA GOP to steal the next election [View all]Ford_Prefect
(8,701 posts)45. He cannot participate in person nor by any media or paltform
as those would be denied him as a prisoner. Someone would have to represent him as a proxy. No speeches, no communicating with campaign staff, none of that which gives him oxygen.
He'd have to be paroled or pardoned, neither of which seem likely. No matter how much he and his enablers may say it will happen, It won't.
If we entertain the fear of it rather than take steps to actually win, that is if we worry ourselves into defensive rather than outspoken campaigning then the GOP will win.
His niece has been saying he'll fold like a wet paper bag once he's charged and arrested. He is not personally brave. He's a bully who cannot deal with losing at anything.

I will say I worry about what paths the RW Dark Money will take to continue their insurrection.
