He might not destroy them though, in case needs them for blackmail later.

I guess they will never be released, But im guessing other people have seen the clips, no matter how secure it was when
it was sent, someone must of kept another copy.

But then again as you say, it wouldve been released and Im guess Mark isnt going to change his mind about
releasing it.

Then again there must be a physical copy somewhere under lock and key. there must be pressure for him to release it,
because if it doesnt get released and Muller doesnt get evidence of collusion with Russia, the GOP will be smiling
come November.

Why would he give up that power by destroying the tape?

The whole Omarosa expose is ridiculous. All she's got to tell us is Trump is a racist? Who didn't know this already? If "grab 'em by the pussy" didn't bother voters, why, oh why does anyone think him using the N word is going to shock anyone? Frankly, I'd be shocked, and I mean REALLY shocked if there weren't multiple tapes of him using the N word and I'm sure he uses the term freely. He's a racist PIG! And his base LOVES him for it!

A video tape of Trump saying the N Word, would take him down.


he wouldnt survive that, within a few hours of its release there will be tens of thousand of protestors
outside the WH. Within 12 hours, half a million at least, all up and down the country there will be
mass outrage, he will be gone with 24 hours.

His base may love it, the country wouldnt, A N word tape would end his presidency.

It would be worse than everything to date combined, there is no doubt about that.

I'm amazed so many people don't realize it. You would have demonstrations everywhere and Republicans speaking out against him for the first time.

That's already happened many times during this presidency. How would that take him down? His base remains.

These people are all snakes and they don't trust each other. Holding onto a tape over Trump's head would be wise. It will help you get what you want from that asshole because for him loyalty only works one way.
