is he thought the Presidency would get him out of the trouble he was in.
But he kept fucking up and getting himself in more trouble, the way he has his whole life.
Because he's a stupid, corrupt lowlife.
Like a gambler who tries to gamble more to get out of debt, he used one scam to get him out of the last scam.
Let's hope it all comes crashing down on him now.

Thank you for pointing that out.

(17,235 posts).... Washington DC, maybe Michigan will all be looking for ways to fry his ass good. To make him unelectable ever again.
He might have been better to have let the US Senate bar him from future office. Now people will no leave one stone unturned to nail his ass and keep him out of public office.

Ditto, Letitia James, NY.
Sharp black women attorneys are going to nail his ass.

(18,272 posts)It's high for anyone who's rich and famous. But Trump will be on another level. The AGs have seen what has happened to people who have crossed him, and they have to ask themselves if they want to do something that might end their careers.

He argued that the Senate was not the place to try the former president. His crimes should be tried in a court of law. There are so many crimes. The FBI and DOJ will uncover some. NY AG has older crimes that will be litigated, and other state investigations for recent attempts to manipulate the votes. And there will be civil suits against him too.
We shall see, and will hear about these for years to come.

They are going for the jugular on democracy. Dems . . . Liberals have to fight back . . . or this 2020 election will be the last time we win the Whitehouse.
