Trump is 100% going to blame this loser when he fucks the election up, and the following insurrection attempt.
If Trump loses in November he'll be in jail by January. The sentencing has already been scheduled. If the election is going to be stolen it'll have to be stolen when the votes are cast or counted, not when the election is certified.
he’ll be in jail by January.
Sigh - no he won't, so can we stop pretending like he will ever face punishment for anything?
I would believe a "house arrest" at Maralago. A house arrest where he gets to pick his security and visitors like ~~Columbia~~ Colombia did with Escobar.
I would believe a “house arrest” at Maralago.
I would too, unless Congress revokes his Secret Service detail. Secret Service protection is what makes imprisoning him difficult, it's either house arrest or they rededicate an entire prison wing to just him.
I wouldn't let him pick his security and restrict his visitors though. And absolutely no internet or social media. It's supposed to be a punishment, after all.
I think he'd just ditch to someplace with no extradition so he can keep gassing up domestic terrorists from abroad.
Colombia
Thanks fixed.
❤️
I expect he's going to say he didn't mean that he fabricated the story, but instead meant that he "created the story" in the sense of bringing it to the media's attention
He did say exactly that in the interview when called out. It's in the twitter thread linked.
Towards the end.
He should definitely resign from the Senate. I'm not sure if he's legally allowed to back out of the VP nomination.
He can't be forced to serve but it may be too late to get his name off of ballots. I'm pretty sure the rules for that vary by state, though. We've already then through this once this year with RFK.
He didn't create it, but he should resign anyway because he is a sack of shit.
