He's laying landmines and booby traps for Biden to walk into. He wants Biden to fail, so he looks better in 2024.

Do you remember the scene from Der Untergang (Downfall): in the bunker, Hitler is screaming at his generals, oblivious to the truth all around him?

That’s what trump reminds me of.

CNN headline: “trump bunkers down in White House.”

To quote from it:
When he ventures downstairs for meetings in the Oval Office, he often remains late into the evening conferring over his chaotic legal efforts and wondering why more of his lawyers aren't on television defending him.
During a particularly heated session last Thursday, his deputy campaign manager accused his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, who was on speakerphone, of being a "f**king a**hole."

"Time coming soon to say goodbye with grace & dignity," Rivera tweeted. Trump spent the ensuing weekend making false claims that he "won the election," including in all capital letters, that social media outlets labeled disinformation.

Trump has made policy and personnel moves from behind closed doors, including firing the defense secretary and preparing the Afghanistan and Iraq drawdown orders. He reportedly asked about options for striking Iran during a meeting last week. And his administration is scrambling to harden efforts on deregulation and immigration before the end of Trump's term.

Hahaha... it truly is like the film!!

The thing that struck me about the Downfall was Hitler actively seeking the complete destruction of Germany, not rather than, but because of it’s / his defeat.




What I find really scary is the unwillingness of rational Republicans in powerful positions to challenge his outrageous behaviour. OK, they're worried about their own paypackets, I get that. But don't they care about the country they claim to be so proud of?


Politicians start out caring but once they get to the top it's all about themselves and power and money.

Yup.

And they will always get away with it because all the stupid lemmings care about is that *their* fraudster wins.

power to the people, man.

To the lemmings surely.
How can they be lemmings and people at one and the same time?
