    Nah, don't be ridiculous. Nothing Harris has done comes even close to what Trump has already done, let alone what he's going to do in the next four years.
    Yeah and still she managed to lose.

    That would require him to step down because he's not the bestest besty best at besting.
    He'd rather die than do that.

    Not for it being her fault, no.

    Could...but his ego, which is directly connected to his psycho-narcissism wouldn't allow it.

    That's 2 questions!

    I 100% believe he just wanted to try his hardest to simply stay out of jail, and in the case of a win, make everything disappear.

    But now? Now he's going to be all ego. "Trump did this. Trump won this mandate. Trump is the only one that could do this. Trump won like nobody has ever seen in the history of the country!" And so on. He's going to be too full of himself to just step aside. At least not right away. If he were to step aside, I don't think it'd happen for at least a couple of years. May depend on how fast the decline happens. but I'm sure they'd cover that up, because you can't have Trump appearing weak, of course.

    It must burn at him that he's not going to beat Biden's vote count.

    That'll somehow be the one bit of "fraud" they think exists. Amazing how quickly all the worries on that front vanished, btw.

    I don't for a second think that Trump actually believes his own bullshit.

    Summary: Being President made him a fuckton of money last time around, he will for sure try it again.

    He doesn't need to. He just needs everyone else to believe it as and when required.

    I'm not talking about what other people believe. I'm talking about his own narcissism and how it's going to be eating away at him over that fact.

    Oh no, Harris gets to retire as a wealthy, well connected politician without a care in the world. Truly a miserable fate for someone who defied Trump!

    Yawn.


    But seeing as you’re bringing up “legacy,” trump will be remembered as the twice-impeached sex pest criminal who bungled a global pandemic during his punctuated eight miserable years of White House occupation.

    George W. bush isn’t even remembered fondly these days and he never even raped anybody. You think the history books are gonna look back kindly on Trump?



    Actually, correction, twice-impeached so far.

    And the tiny fraction for whom heroic raids are currently well tuned? Too bad,so sad! With the arterial bleed of subs the fastest it's ever been, the vanity development that gives you guys your own content is no longer supportable.

    We're talking about history 50 years from now, 100 years from now. At that point, it'll be a footnote.
