What does the future hold for Donald Trump? - threadbans in OP

alchemist33

I've seen two main options put forward on this forum, (1) that he'll remain a political force until the 2024 primaries start up and the Republicans have to take him seriously or (2) that he'll be so mired in litigation that he'll have no time for politics.

There are of course other options for the next 4 years - prison, exile, death or ill-health (he isn't young and he's been under stress), no politics but a business success, emperor. But it'd be an interesting exercise for people to lay their cards on the table now and make their predictions.

Personally I think his political influence will die quickly after the Capitol fiasco but someone else will emerge in 2 years, once the memories have waned, to be the standard-bearer for the QAnon wing.

I have now decided to just sit back and read the thread while eating popcorn.
This is getting funnier by the day.
We should look into making this a coffee table book I feel.

I dunno, it seems to fit the charter... not quite lighthearted enough for After Hours, but not debate-worthy enough for the Politics Forum.

That would require you to argue in good faith

LOL... Congresswoman Liz Cheney (RINO) who was removed from her conference chair by House Republicans, and has an axe to grind against Trump and the GOP, is chosen by Pelosi to be in her witch-hunt investigation. Knock me over with a feather!!!!!

*adds "use of the term "RINO"" to the list of things that rule out reasonable discussion*

Did someone suggest that Liz Cheney is not a real Republican?

Liz Cheney? Really?

I think he'll run again next time out and win in a run off with Harris.

Anyone remember Jason Miller? The child-support shirking, abortion-pill slipping comms staffer from the Trump administration?

He's just started a social media website of his own. The name is very fitting.

For some diehards The Republican Party IS The Trump Party.

If you go against the noble leader you are a traitor.

You mean to say for them the Party is the Country. Some of these people have gone well into 1984 turf.

That’s the 2 years of fake recounts they do after Biden wins again

Mmmm... NY... Forget the Big Apple stuff, it’s where we'll weaponize prosecutorial power to target a hated republican we loath. Hey, if all else fails go with a technical accounting issues about how to classify fringe benefits.

This doesn't seem to have anything to do with Trump himself. He's in the clear, I think. Unindicted Co-conspirator #1, on the other hand, should probably be worried but that could be anyone.

On or before April 5, 2010, the Trump Corporation, acting through its agent, Unindicted Co-conspirator #1, underreported Allen Weisselberg's taxable income for the tax year 2009.

Such melodramatic over reaction. Trump hasn’t been named in the indictment has he?

Trump set up shop in New York, and his organization and his CFO committed crimes there. So New York is prosecuting. New York has a long history of prosecuting and suing Trump, decades of it, long before he ever called himself a Republican even, and long before most people bothered to like or dislike him. Your faux outrage doesn’t track with reality.

yeah that Unindicted Co-conspirator #1 guy is the one that is really in trouble. I wouldn't like to be that guy.

Weren't you saying the other day that you were fine with Weisselburg being prosecuted but now cause Trump is implicated, you're annoyed. It's like just want to ignore criminal behavior.

Were you not complaining about crime a few days ago?

Maga: Tough on crime.
Also maga: No, not that crime, witch-hunt!

I don't think he's implicated yet. According to more knowledgeable people than myself, it's Trump org exec Jeff McConney.

I think it is a common occurrence among most closely held corporations. I have no problem with them going after Trump if they go after the other corporations in their jurisdiction for the same thing. But to target the Trump organization because the Manhattan DA hates Trump with a passion and seemingly has put so much of his offices time and effort targeting him in order to get him any way possible is just wrong.

Good thing that's only happening in your mind.

you think they ignore evidence of tax fraud when they come across it? do you have anything to backup that assertion?

Part of the evidence for this case has come from previous investigations into the likes of Michael Cohen and the Trump Foundation. Trump's claims while running for President the first time, including those relating to his payments to the likes of Stormy Daniels, raised reg flags which warranted investigations.

Trump has, through six degrees of separation, f*cked himself.

You'd think the same people who spent 6+ years trying to pin anything north of a jaywalking charge on Hillary Clinton for lying about a video tape (not a crime, by the way) wouldn't bat an eyelid when an indictment comes down detailing clearly defined tax fraud.

Ignore engaging with the resident Trump supporter, if it was Hunter Biden he’d be all over the website looking for prosecutions, any charges against the Donald is a witch hunt
