(13,421 posts)It's kind of a "Look--it's Haley's Comet!" sort of thing with him. While he's out doing the dumbass thing, tweeting out his early am bullshit, nobody is really paying a lot of attention to the sneaky little things going on in Congress. Yeah, we are all watching the ACA issue, and we all are watching the budget stuff, but there is an awful lot of other stuff going on and it is under the radar because we are all laughing (or screaming) about his outrage du jour.
Once they get a bunch of heinous crap accomplished (cough, cough, Medicare and Social Security dismantled, for instance) they are gonna sober up and realize the off year elections are coming up and the people are pissed off. At that point, the orange anus becomes the surrogate for the Congressional Republicans, and his days become numbered. I look for them to try and "throw him off the island", and I expect he's gonna try and fight back.
I honestly think there's a lot of dirt on him that they will trot out behind closed doors. I also think a deal will be struck that he'll resign and in return he gets to keep his money and they won't prosecute him or his kids. If he fights them, I think he's either gonna have an unfortunate "Heart Attack" down at Mira Viagra, or else go to jail along with some of his kids. I have zero doubt that his party would take him out if they think they are gonna lose seats, and the individuals would certainly be willing if it means they get to keep their own seat.
If the GOP doesn't get him, I think the Russians might because he's uncontrollable.
