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

Imagine Trump if he had been allowed to give a eulogy at Mccain's funeral (we're talking a far-out alternate universe, here).

"And we're all thinking of John as his spirit goes... As it goes most probably to Heaven... "

"My deepest condolences to John's family, and in particular to his daughter, Meghan. Isn't she beautiful, folks? Almost as beautiful as my Ivanka. Maybe if she lost a few..."

"Deep down, I know John always liked me. Even when I made light of his being a POW. He probably thought saying that took balls."

"John... If you are up there... Tell the big guy to help us make... America.... Great.... Again! Thank you"

(Born in the USA plays)

That's pretty much it in a nutshell

"US President Donald Trump has attacked the late Senator John McCain, complaining that he "didn't get a thank you" for his state funeral.

"We sent him on the way, but I wasn't a fan of John McCain," the president said during a visit to an Ohio tank factory.

"I gave him the kind of funeral that he wanted, which as president I had to approve," he told workers at the factory.

"I don't care about this, I didn't get a thank you. That's OK."

This is worth watching, particularly from the 6 minute mark.

Many who have paid close attention to Trump will be aware of this but it is quite sinister to see it laid out.

Not overly pleased that it is a late night talkshow host/comedian doing it rather senior Democrats but, that's part of the problem he alludes to himself.

Fascinating to see it laid out so clearly alright. We do forget sometimes that it's not just about the past. Trump is still going. The attempted coup is still continuing. We are witnessing the US transition to a new state. Whether that's breaking up of the US or civil war or just the transition from an admittedly not great democracy to an autocracy.

What is becoming more and more clear, particularly within the book Peril, is just how involved Trump was in the attempted coup.

It has been waved away because he wasn't directing the insurrection itself, but that was clearly just another plank of the overall plan, a safety net should the other routes fail.

The evidence is mounting that Trump made, and is still attempting, a coup of the democracy of the US.

He did but when you think about it for even a second, the president had no say in who lies in state at the US capitol, which is down to at least the speaker of the house and given how the leader of the senate is involved them as well. It’s like most of his statements that when you dig down into them, they are at best factually incorrect and at worst just a word salad with a langer load of projection.

People need to forget this idea that Trump will end up in prison.

It's never gonna happen.

Speaking of Trumps. Seems the first daughter got up to no good with taxpayer $$ behind some 'food box' program that turned out to be, well, a UK-government style secret contract awarding cash slurp by well connected GQP'ers. https://coronavirus.house.gov/sites/democrats.coronavirus.house.gov/files/SSCC_Staff_Report-Farmers_to_Families_Food_Box_Program.pdf

As the program was under the aegis of the Dept. of Agriculture, it doesn't look like there'll be any charges against anyone. Pity.

Wait, what was Parler? Either way it'll just end up like 4chan or 8chan

Truth?
