Yeah, I guess you're right. He could fly off in any number of directions. I was thinking specifically of the 72 hours between now and the inauguration of Biden/Harris. Will he remain silent? Is he "done here"? If not, what will he say, how will he say it, and will it be to help the nation heal or to further divide it? Will he preemptively pardon himself? His family? But mostly, will he reveal anything more of his true feelings or will that all be saved for the launch of his post-presidency?
If we're talking about post-presidency, I think he will attempt to parlay his massive twitter cult-followers into a new social media platform – Probably called MAGA or Trump/MAGA or something along those lines. It will become the home for homegrown terrorists.
I hope with every fiber of my being that the senate convicts him of inciting the insurrection at the Capital Bldg..
I anticipate and am giddy about the prospect that there will be numerous lawsuits that will become active again.
I think the Trump Organization will suffer short-term (it has already begun) but it's hard to say what he will do to attempt to resurrect his swindling empire.
There's a tidal wave of other things that could happen... Giuliani could turn on him... e could leave the country (Scotland Watch out!)
Personally, with regard to his role in the Capital insurrection, I think something is rotten in Denmark. There is an interesting aspect that has come to light. To the best of our knowledge, he was not whisked away by Secret Service to a safe haven when the Capital riots broke out. He remained ensconced in his man cave tweeting and smiling. Why? Didn't secret service usher him down to the shelter in the basement during the BLM protests in Washington D.C. this past summer? Something's not right.
Anyway, the clock is ticking. But when the final tick of his president y comes and goes on Wednesday at High Noon, it will not end the danger he's fomented. He'll leave that as his calling card. He's not going away if he can help it. Just changing his clothes.
