2. He will declare a Presidential Pardon to himself and all members of his family.
3. He will have sealed the records, transcripts and investigation material related to any political or criminal actions in which he or his family are mentioned for a minimum of 99 years. This is to protect “National Security”.
The last two have international precede. Jair Bolsonaro used these tactics to protect himself and his family from prosecution while in power in Brasil (Brazil).

May 31st, 2024 - 09:00 pm - Link - Report abuse +1@MarkWhelan, you forgot the 4th: he'd start again with his border wall to stop the migration from the south, more even so because since last year there are hordes of tens of thousands Chinese migrants coming from mainland China each week and the border patrol agents do nothing (or are unable to do anything) to stop them. Some would think that they are political refugees, but others would think that they (or some among them) are sleeping agents preparing to sabotage any military action of the US if a war against China happens.

Jun 01st, 2024 - 12:07 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I guess I need to “wake up”. You know, be woke.
I need to get me some of that advanced, superior, extra enlightened intellect.
Or, is it possible that it is those “superior thinkers” who need to wake up?
And they are too full of themselves and their superior intellect to see this?
Sorry Bush and Chic, i have to disagree, Trump is not fit to run a bath never mind a country.

The evil of two lesser, imoyaro once said something to the effect, voting for the lesser demon.
Beggars belief for me that the same two are running again.
Biden was really too old last time, clearly struggling to read from the script in front of him and Trump complained bitterly about a broken election system which was working fine 4 years before when he won the election.
Go figure.

Yes, he really hasn't done anything in his life, he's not capable.
Ah yes, Pugol, the Doctrine of “Lesser Demonics,” wherein one tries to choose the the lesser of two evils by choosing the lesser of two demons. offered on the ballot. It works in the US where there are two dominant parties. As Lincoln pointed out, the two parties are like drunken men in oversized great coats fighting, and every twenty years or so, they have wrestled their way into each other's coats...

Planet of the Apes comes to mind.
China still flexing its muscles over Taiwan.
Spain and Argentina still spitting the dummy out over Gibraltar and the Falkland Islands.
We are all doomed captain meandering.
Its life Jim but not as we know it.
