Has anyone thought about what Trump's crazy followers will do if he is removed? [View all]

Last edited Fri Oct 13, 2017, 08:41 AM - Edit history (1)

Not to mention what he will do, will he use his own money to go out and stir up his followers to violence? Will we truly see a civil war started by Steve Bannon, Steven Miller with Donald Trump as their mouthpiece?

Trump will be furious if he is removed, even if he chooses to resign he will be impossible to control. His diatribe will continue against a free press, minorities, women and Obama's policies. He is more than a loose cannon, he is a complete mental case with a bully pulpit whether he is in office or not.

Will he start a Fox on steroids? How will all of this impact 2018 if he is removed? I started thinking about this yesterday. We have never seen anything like this, Nixon went pretty quietly in the night, this guy has no intention of doing that, he loves the crowds and the limelight so much he can't.

Short of threatening him with legal action against his kids and his company I don't see what we have to use to shut him up when he is gone.
