Trump will never go away, even after the election. Especially if he loses. The media is going to be give him all the attention he will want as long as he is yelling at clouds. And it will be a constant bitch fest (not like it isn't now). Gone are the days when an ex-President just quietly does his own thing in the background.
Unfortunately I don't think it will be that ideal or simple. Trump loves the spotlight. Every day the news will have to be about how great a President he was and how the current admin sucks.
Prison would be the only way that doesn't happen. But I'm not convinced things will reach that point despite all the evidence and law breaking.
Barring a pardon, he'll spend the rest of his life in jail or a court room. While impeachment might be a political job, criminal bribery charges, felony campaign election violations (which were part of a criminal conspiracy that included bank fraud), perjury, and obstruction of justice aren't.
No don't you get it? He is speaking directly to the heart and soul of the GOP. They don't want abortions because killing fetuses is totes wrong but they also don't want new babies being born because young people don't vote Republican. So what do they want? Women who are pregnant for the rest of their lives. It keeps women out of world because they are stuck being nine months pregnant with all the pains and complications that come with being pregnant. So obviously Trump is still the most stable of genius and master of the 4 squared dimensional chess.
I....What the...I just...H-how....The fu---WHAT?!
Did I just have an aneurysm? The fuck was that? What did that even mean? He wants to change babies being born normally? What the hell? What the fuck? What the fuck?
And you know what is even more stupid, somehow, there's a person fucking nodding to what Trump is saying in the background. Are they deaf? Do they not understand English? We already know there's at least one person that agrees with Trump on this.

So, yeah, as we've mentioned once or twice Giuliani went to Ukraine in the capacity of his official role as "he doesn't have an official role".
Now, he's ready to deliver his report to Barr and Congress.
"Oh, so he's going to testify under oath?"
Fuck, no. That's the point of the report. By having no official role or rules, and also by handing over a piece of paper as far as he can from anything that looks like a chair or Bible, Trump gets to point at something, declare it evidence, and start an investigation into a political opponent under the guise of "because a civilian I happen to employ says there's a problem".
Giuliani tweets -- also not under oath so fuck you -- that he has "compelling" evidence Biden committed crimes while VP, and also, that aid was not withheld. Which, of course, is a flat-out falsehood. What Giuliani might have meant was aid was eventually released, but it was withheld, that was the problem.

So how are those NK talks going, Trump?
Okay, rank that with "some mothers are allowed to give birth at nine months" then.We’ll see about North Korea. I’d be surprised if North Korea acted hostilely. He knows I have an election coming up. I don’t think he wants to interfere with that, but we’ll have to see ... I think he’d like to see something happen. The relationship is very good, but you know, there is certain hostility, there’s no question about it
Fine fine. NK, you wanna get in on this?
Oh...well, that's the complete opposite, then. Nobel Prize, you say?We do not need to have lengthy talks with the U.S. now and denuclearization is already gone out of the negotiating table
So the Middle East peace plan collapsed so badly, not only did the writer flee the administration, Kushner was re-assigned to literally building a fence. North Korea's actually gotten worse since Trump walked out nearly a year ago. No NAFTA 1.0.0.2 no trade deal with China and we have Canada, the UK and France sharing a merry laugh directly and specifically about Trump.
And now, just to drive the point home:
When you Google that quote, you'll find its source: a tear-stained list of sanctions against Russia, in which Trump does specifically mention North Korea.I built a truly great company worth many billions of dollars. That is a big part of the reason I was elected. As President, I can make far better deals with foreign countries than Congress.
Laughingstock.
A question about this point; Are there legal repercussions to something like this, because of how hilariously transparent it is? Or, rather, wouldn't the presented ''Evidence" need to be put down on record anyway at some point if they even get that far with it?
And, yes, I ask full well knowing that this whole round of shenanigans isn't about finding anything then it's just about putting a bad light on Biden - who's honestly doing a good enough job on his own, but that's for the other thread - but I feel like there should be mechanisms in place to prevent the President, or anyone in power, from just opening up sham investigations into political opponents for the sole purpose of smearing them.

Words to live by.
The SNL Cold Open is perfectly cast and savage as fuck. It parodies the NATO meeting as a High School lunch cafeteria with the "cool kids" and the "losers".
Jimmy Fallon as Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau
Paul Rudd as French President Emmanuel Macron
James Corden as British Prime Minister and ex-Trump friend Boris Johnson.
Alec Baldwin as Trump with a tray full of Hamburders
Kate McKinnon as Angela Merkel
It's truly perfect.
Also sorry Latvia, it's just a little joke.
Another shift in GOP defense has been noted.
We've seen reports that the upcoming report from IG Horowitz will contain basically nothing of value to the GOP, and that the FBI did not act with malice when they caught someone in Trump's campaign intentionally working with Russia to sabotage the election. Based on their recent comments, the GOP have come to terms with this, and area already dismissing the report which has not yet been released.
"Horowitz is only the DoJ IG, and he's not a prosecutor, so there's only so much he can do in that role," appears to be the talking point. "For real results, we want to hear from Trump's personal attorney, someone literally paid to be biased, holding no government role with accountability, and who's proven to be a blatant liar multiple times, which is why he won't go under oath. Also, he's being investigated while his friends used for this report are going to jail."
So Ted Cruz went on Meet The Press and spouted Russian propaganda that Ukraine meddled in 2016 elections.
