30. He would have to get re-elected...

I find that unlikely. Besides the DOJ going after him, there are two major state investigations, GA and NY. While his base will remain loyal, they are nicely committing suicide by Covid. The independents who voted for him are dwindling and as more keeps coming out, they will be fewer and fewer. As long as pressure is kept on, he has no chance.

This ‘lock him up’ mentality was his tactic and it failed. It failed with Hillary and it failed with Cohen… And those failed attempts (especially Cohen) is coming back to bite him. Having Dems act like tfg is not something I would recommend or participate in but… Have fun with that plan.
