He also said he'd leave the country if he lost to Biden. Of all the lies he's told, I wish that one were true.

The tourbillon watches are very rare too. Don't miss out!
He will continue to run as long as he is alive and there's money to be made
Scott Adams said republicans would be executed if Joe Biden won. Can we just agree Trump and all his MAGA morons are liars who will say and do anything for a lick of power?
That must’ve been the least funny Dilbert strip.
Compared to most Dilbert strips, it was actually in the top ten.
He also said in August he'll move to Venezuela if he loses and that migrants were eating pets in Ohio and he never lost the 2020 election, why give any credibility to the things a known liar and fascist says as he attempts to grift and cult his way into a pardon for his criminal behavior?
I don't think he's allowed in other countries now except NK and ruzzia. Ukraine would probably also accept his participation as a decoy. Possibly. Mexico has expressed interest based on his girth. With a little exercise, he could be the perfect mule. Or surgery..... don't need this yellow stuff, what's this other thing? Don't know, don't need it....ah great! 40 kilos per trip!
That’s gets a bit racist there towards the end…
He's not going to run because he will spend the rest of his life in prison. And that can't happen soon enough.
He literally has to win this race to save him from prison. I don't think people understand how motivated he is...
He's not going to prison. He'll get fined. Those fines will be paid off by his friends. The remaining charges will be dropped. And then he'll go back to grifting rubes with Trumpy Bears and NFT trading cards, before going back to the political bundler circuit in time for 2026.
Trump would get a fine, if he hadn't violated the judge's orders and been held in contempt multiple times.
Trump burned through all of his rich white guy privileges with judge Merchan. Delaying the sentencing until after the election was a way to make sure that Trump gets prison time.
See, if the sentencing had been before the election, then the Supreme Court could have held an emergency session to keep him out of prison.
They will not hold an emergency session for a two time loser.
The main worry now is if Trump flees the country.
Im not worried about that, they wont let him, as a former president and current candidate, he has a secret service detail until he gives it up. Given the unique situation he is in, I dont think they would let him do that until everything is resolved.
I hope you're wrong, but it's possible. Dude has so many very serious felony charges still pending against him. We cannot have a functioning justice system in this country if the rules don't apply to billionaires and popular politicians. I'm going to be contacting my representatives non-stop, assuming Harris wins.

He'd hardly be the first billionaire/political elite to evade the justice system.

Yeah people have lost their minds if they think we will ever get control of Musk, Zuckerberg or anyone else worth more than $50 mil. Will never happen, especially with lemmings still willingly voting for Republicans.
He’s literally running for his freedom. If he loses, he could be jailed.
Did he phrase it in a way that would sound like (to his sheep) that he wouldn’t be able to run as he will be persecuted by them and killed or something
I don't think he will live another 4 years will he?
He looks damn old, you Americans love your old pollies but
I don’t think he will live another 4 years will he?
He doesn't drink. He doesn't smoke. He's got government health care and access to the best doctors. He's not pulling a Steve Jobs and getting fruit enemas to treat pancreatitis cancer.
Could very easily make it to his late 80s/early 90s.
He likes the businessman lifestyle, I guarantee that mine did looooots of coke in the 80s, if not today. That would have a detrimental affect on longterm health.
But he's also a fat bastard who never exercises. His diet is shit, and yet he might still live for another decade.
He's been on ozymbic, which is why he looks so deflated of late. May still have another ten years in him on that alone.
But also, you've got a guy like Dick Cheney whose heart hasn't beat in over a decade. Modern medicine can do some crazy shit.
Never put it past the worst people and the most unhealthy people to live the damn longest because that's the universe's sick humor. Not always, but enough that it gets annoying.
I’m looking at you Henry Kissinger
Pretty sure even Satan didn't want that heinous war criminal.
Purgatory is OK with me. Or you know just floating in an endless void with complete and utter sensory deprivation. No one to talk to for as long as it takes to drive him insane and then the rest of eternity beyond that.
In four years this man is going to be legally braindead one way or another. Either the dementia will get him, or the hamburders will.
I suspect that it’s already beginning to happen to him. Trump’s father had Alzheimer's, and I’m pretty sure that he’s headed down a similar path.
I only disagree because he's never done anything legally before.
