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

Even if such a video was released now, it probably wouldn't make any difference to Trump's supporters.

How is it that Trump is able to get away with stuff that Nixon wouldn't have gotten away with?

Has public indifference to presidential misconduct increased since Watergate? If it has, then how?

So they'd still support even if he turned out to be like Gene Hackman's character in the film "Absolute Power"?

Such is the nature of the US electoral system it seems that Ted Bundy, if he had gone into politics while still being a serial killer, could have become president - or is that too melodramatic?

The average male life expectancy in America is 73 , surely there's a couple of candidates in the whole country suitable that would be less than that at the end of the term if elected, obviously female candidates also, they tend to live a few years more....

That's the thing about Trump - he has that movement behind him. On the other side, the Democratic party is telling their voters what they're voting against but not much about what they're voting for.

Leave aside the people involved for a moment and look at the broader picture. Not just in the United States, but throughout the West. The political centre appears to have stagnated and is struggling to come up with a positive message, nor does the political centre appear much interested in figuring out how to address the concerns of voters in a meaningful way. There just seems to be this strange expectation that the wingnuts will just sort of disappear and all will be normal again. Without action, it seems obvious to me that this will not be the case.

And when you ask why there is this inaction, the answers are so sparse that people will inevitably fill those gaps in with whatever conspiracy theory is suitable.

To go back to the US, Biden may be a thoroughly decent man and know his way around political negotiation, but he's no talisman and he's running on much the same message that Hillary did which is basically beige 'more of the same, no new ideas', with a little pandering to fashionable causes thrown in. They're doing a hell of a job of making Donald Trump, of all people, seem in any way viable, but here we are.

Donald Trump is an adjudicated rapist and a crook.

"They keep telling us to move because there is a hurricane coming, but they never tell us anything nice about where we are going so why should we care".

Poor. Really poor.

They're sorta on a rollercoaster of their own making with few ways off the rails except for political suicide (which, would ensure a Democratic Supermajority, shudder the thought). They spent so many cycles wagging the dog that the tail is steering the ship, and they feel, for whatever reason, beholden to a voting base who cannot see reason, they can't see a pathway where they win elections, and seats, and maintain otherwise sensible policies, so they only have fear etc. to market with. Hence why they're interested in keeping the border open for the next year - solving the problem now wouldn't be seen by this voting base as "Republicans showing they can govern" it would be "capitulating to those bastard woke traitor democrats"; this death spiral of the GOP has been going on for at least 12 or so years, a reaction to the Bush era burning through the public trust of traditional/neo conservatism via. the WMD hoax, the Enron scandal, and numerous other things that couldn't be papered over, and went utterly alight when a black president was elected, which poured hella gasoline on the base of voters who MAGA attracted, with all that GRT ****. First came the TEA movement, then MAGA. The party of McCain had long been dead in function.

While it implodes it seems we are to brace for more coup attempts and more political violence.

Jared upset that nobody has forgot he received $2 Bn from the Saudis for _????_

So he ousts the chair and shoves this one in?
