Topic: Typhoid Trump: the not-smart, corrupt, coward, loser, thread

[killer-heels]

I wonder what odds you can get for the White House burning down (again) by the end of this week?

With Melania and Donald in there? Fucking hell that would be brilliant.

[Yorkykopite]

I'm thinking of them as the arsonists.

The White House on lockdown: A federal law enforcement source tells NBC that beginning tomorrow, crews will build a “non-scalable” fence to secure the WH complex, Ellipse and Lafayette Square. 250 National Guardsmen have been put on standby, reporting to Metro Police officials.

It's like they're preparing for The Purge.

I bet Melania will vote against Trump. All she wanted was to marry an old rich dude and drink cocktails somewhere in Bahamas, and not to worry about anything ever. Now she have to stay in some boring room of the White House with bunch of security and pretend she's reading.

He's gonna try to steal the election and then wait it out.

[Red Beret]

He's gonna try to steal the election and then wait it out.

It'll be like something out of World War Z. As soon as the national guard massacre a few dozen (hundred??) Protesters outside the Whitehouse, and people are managing to get their friends over 12ft high fences, you'll see Trump being bundled into Marine One.

PS: I hope this barrier is knowingly built to the usual Trump standards by savvy engineers, ie it falls down with a light shove. 

[rafathegaffa83]

And let the violence unfold outside, while avoiding a highly unlikely Ceausescu situation. I think it was Garry Kasparov who noted authoritarian types build walls and fences around themselves due to fear of their enemies

Surely that will start civil war

He probably has taken out buildings insurance and bought a petrol can.
He has already bankrupted the office of president.

So knowing Trump this fence he wants building around the WH will probably end up being about 5% of the length he wants and leave most of it as is, with the 5% built by shitty opportunistic companies and it’ll rust within 3 days.

Can't be removed from the white house if you can't get in

Is it being paid for by Mexico, and does it have a moat?

If the dems win the senate they should immediately impeach trump again, starting the moment they know the senate will be theirs come jan 3rd. Hold the Articles with the house until they take over the senate.

Once they have the senate the can completely blunt trump by running the saga out for a month. 

The Hatch act would be the best thing to use I think. Go after the money.

Ready to fry your brain:


Imagine a Donald Trump concession speech.


Would be like Charlie Sheen delivering a lecture on sobriety and abstaining from sexual congress.

Pretty much guaranteed that it will be a dog-whistle call for a violent uprising and a legal challenge in every court in the land to the result.

Unless he's already on his way to Moscow by then.

Apologies if I missed somebody linking this before, but in the latest instalment of what will trump exploit politically:

Wonder when the day for the 230k that have died in the pandemic is or are they waiting until they hit a larger milestone?

Wow - that is deeply sick

[Corkboy]

They've been trying that since long before Trump.

I'm wondering if he shows up to Biden's inauguration? Would love to see him sat there as Joe rips into his legacy. Probably spend the whole ceremony tweeting.

I think the senate is the most important factor in this election. Trump winning matters far less if the Senate flips. I don't suppose Biden would win and the Senate remain Republican, but that would be a pyrrhic victory.

Hell no. He won't show up, he's a coward without manners.

Democrats need all three government branches to neutralise SCOTUS.

You mean the way Trump basically torched Obama in 2017? Biden has too much dignity.  He'll leave Trump for the FBI.

If he wins he should treat Trump with the disdain he deserves - maybe one passing comment about leaving the Trump shitfest behind - and focus on the work ahead.

As you say, it's for others to deal with his criminality.

I expect Biden to talk about bringing the country together, about unity and healing, and about a unified and structured response to Covid-19.

That alone will be a slap to the orange jowls, but it will be a message delivered with a quite, pragmatic, matter of fact dignity where Trump can only seethe quietly and unable to respond because he wont be the centre of attention - the camera will be on Biden.

I honestly don't think he'll turn up for that very reason.  The man's incapable of keeping a dignified silence, and he'd be a sideshow of ridicule in any case.

I think he would have left the country at that point. Pence will have to do his best runners up face. Because that is all he is going to have.

[FlashGordon]

Are we really certain that he's going actually be president? This is going to get messy.

Nothing will be known with any degree of certainty until probably around Thursday - except that Trump will fight tooth and nail to reject any result that rejects him.

I was pretty mellow over the whole thing up until today. Maybe just pre-game jitters but I'm starting to get worried about the whole situation now unfortunately.

I’m that guy.  And if Donald Trump really cares about what I think, here you go:  no President has bungled anything, ever, as badly as Trump has bungled COVID.  Period.

Biden was a pathetic laughing stock all over Washington for the horrible way he handled the H1N1 Swine Flu. Even his own Chief of Staff said he didn’t know what he was doing!

In less guarded moments, the president over recent weeks has told advisers he is worried about new prosecutions, including by federal prosecutors, if he loses

I think the senate is the most important factor in this election. Trump winning matters far less if the Senate flips. I don't suppose Biden would win and the Senate remain Republican, but that would be a pyrrhic victory.

From what I can see, it is the race in Maine between Collins and Gideon that is likely the key to a Democrat majority. It has tightened up in the last few days with Gideon only 1.4% ahead in the polls.

Now, Ossoff could also pull off a win for the Dems in Georgia as he is only 0.5% down. There are a couple of other close races, and it is a hell of a lot closer (on paper) than the Presidential Election.

[exiledintheUSA]

Trump spouting violence on the streets due to decision in PA to accept ballots after Election Day.  What an utter, utter c*nt - needs to be defeated early and then charged with inciting violence.

[redbyrdz]

Can't see any violence past a few nutters maybe.

[John C]

After his "physical" comment last night, if a single piece of property is damaged or a single individual is hurt, its 100% on the Presidents head. Trump is to blame for and and all unrest and discord. His hatred of democracy is inciting hatred in the extremities of his base.

And the entire republican party are complicit.

Sadly, what all this has shown us is that you can ignore laws, conventions and even basic human decency.

No one does anything about it...

[deano2727]

I reckon there's more violence if Trump wins, personally. It would add fuel to the fire to those who are already pissed and making it known.

Fortunately, if it's a democratically sound election, Biden will win... Whether that's the case, it remains to be seen.

Biden, while hardly a convincing candidate in my eyes, will at least steady the ship that has been sinking for years.

Good luck, America.

[KillieRed]

Fingers crossed, that after he`s gone in January, all we hear about in this thread are updates of his various issues and indictments...and eventually his manner of death.

[Flaccido Dongingo]

Do you all really think he'll go quietly?, he's gonna kick and scream and use everything at his disposal, both legal and illegal to remain in the White House

[cloggypop]

I still want him to get poloniumed in prison.
