Donald Trump’s future, simplified

Provocation of violence was the obvious intention behind Biden's insane speech last Thursday night.

Do not fall into their trap.

Agreed. Proud Boys, stand back and stand by!

Show the Dems how cool, calm & collected you can be!

How does the democRAT desperation manifest itself?

"Start with one divisive presidential speech accusing 74 million voters of being enemies of the state. Add two Marine guards against a blood-red background for flavor. Whip up the base. Stir in a large pool of resentment and bring to a boil. Sprinkle in a large contingent of FBI operatives to mix with low-intellect stoned bloggers living in repair shop basements and calling for civil war.

Bake for a few weeks and allow resentment to rise. The FBI will supply the necessary heat and preparation to foment Insurrection 2.0. Frost the cake with the state-controlled news and social media reacting in horror and disgust at the evil, violent actions of MAGA Republicans.

This is the recipe for a Democrat October Surprise."

So far I am counting only one deranged MAGA nutbag who decided to try his luck in a standoff with the FBI. Do you know of any others?

As outraged as many might might be over the fact that we evidently still live in a country of laws, that even multibillionaire former Presidents can’t evade forever, I’m chalking all the MAGA talk of “Civil War II” up to online rage and posturing until proven otherwise.

But I’m watching closely!

A new poll underlines how the liberal media elites may have turned the tide of a presidential election with 79 percent of respondents saying “truthful” coverage of Hunter’s laptop scandal would have changed the 2020 outcome.

Sure thing...

Truthful coverage of the Trump’s campaign’s attempts at Russian collusion may have led to Trump’s defeat in 2016. But the FBI kept it under wraps. And so did Obama. They both knew, but this story didn’t break until well after the election.

You hear that? The “deep state” helped Trump! And so did a sitting Democratic President!

While everyone was going on about Hillary’s emails, this Russian hanky-panky was kept from the American people!

Sad!

BS

What if he wins the presidency and goes to jail? Can he pardon himself...?

I'm sure Biden will set the precedent for you...

Though the principle of a self-pardon is untested in U.S. history, the Constitution does not explicitly forbid it.

In theory, if convicted of a federal crime, Trump could self-pardon. But would be powerless to do so against a state conviction.

As far as I know, any Espionage Act-related conviction (which is what the Mar-a-Lago search was about) would be federal law. However, Trump is in other kinds of legal jeopardy including violations of state election law in Georgia.

There is also the practical matter of convincing enough Americans to vote for him again, given the possibility of an indictment hanging over his head, the potential need to literally run a campaign from a jail cell, and *gestures vaguely at every other kind of Trump-related baggage*

I don't actually think he'll see a day in jail but if he did, I imagine the BDS level of his supporters would be through the roof.
