(18,123 posts)I want to see Trump humiliated so badly that no one would dare pull off stunts like him for a hundred years. We must let the nation know that there are consequences to defrauding the US government.
I want to see him put into a pliiory on the Washington Mall so children can throw rotten tomatoes and poo at him.

I'll bet he can't answer, because he probably never read it. He'll give a Palin-like answer of "all of them" or a "vast variety".

(15,805 posts)Trump, like all bullies, is a weakling and a sniveling coward at his core. He's lost almost every associate who who was close to him and his family is now in serious jeopardy. Mueller is giving him a slow death by a thousand cuts, eroding his confidence day by day, very much like Trump did to Hillary in the piecemeal leaking of the emails that Russia gifted to him. The grim subtly has not gone unnoticed.
Trump needs a way out and a place to go before Mueller signs the last order to name him and itemize his criminal activities. He has few places to run to where the US couldn't demand his extradition. There are a number of "shithole countries", but they probably would not welcome Trump and his entourage. That leaves Russia and Ukraine that don't have extradition treaties with the US, maybe his BFF, Putin, will offer him sanctuary.

(12,654 posts)It would serve Putin better to leave Drumpf to be hounded, indicted and finally either jailed or gone on to his final reward due to the pressures of the situation than to let his slimy carcass and his parasitic brood take up Russian real estate and suck off the Russian treasury without being able to provide any value for his investment anymore - as in Drumpf can no longer be cover for Russian mob operations in the U.S.
Besides, think of all the conspiracy theories on how they will twist the minds of Drumpf's worshippers and the con-men living off them - the ones who actually run or fund those "conservative" Mega-Church movements, the militias and the other racist organizations.
Anything to keep the U.S. in chaos.

(8,445 posts)I mean, it would save him from impeachment, yes, but it won't save him from the fact that he's caught. I truly believe that at this point in time, Mueller is just dotting the i's and crossing the t's. -45 is toast, in every way.

(1,997 posts)Unfortunately, with the Russians involved, we are unlikely to ever know the whole truth. They are kind of experts in hiding evidence. And witnesses.
