Trump supporters will say that he didn’t ask for this. However, what he SHOULD be doing is coming out and telling the protesters to stop and go home. He shouldn’t still be talking about the election being stolen. He’s riling up supporters and fanning the flames of violence. He’s acting like a big baby.

I think it was always going to end this way. History books are going to written about the downfall of the United States.

Leon Panetta was on the news saying that the rest of the world are going to see this and use this weakness against us.

Not Bill Maher. He’s the first one I heard say it and been saying same for years…trump will never leave office.

Not surprised Trump won’t go gently, but I am a little surprised Republican Senators are challenging the states’ electoral votes. I am a little shocked they would go this far for power and so naive about the lunatics in our country with guns.

Shouldn’t be a surprise. Politicians are one of the most ambitious and shameless bunch of careerists there exist anywhere in the world. This is one of those rare chances they can shine and earn future votes.

I’m NOT surprised by anything 45 does; however, I have been a tad bit shell shocked by who is willing to dive into his insanity (seemingly sane people)!!! On the positive side, even some of his staunchest supporters are beginning to discuss impeachment & actually removing him from office so he can’t do any more damage over the next 2 weeks. Think that maybe this is why Bill Barr chose to abandon his post when he did???

A narcist will always go out with fanfare in any form and he will do this when he knows that he is losing anything, as it is his pattern of behavior.
Now all will come back to him , but not in a favorable way.
Twitter cut him off as did Facebook..a bit too late.
