Trump is preoccupied with polls and TV ratings to see what people think about him. If Biden banned Trump from the inauguration, Trump would have incentive to attend just to be defiant and garner more support from his hardcore base.
Likewise, most Republicans act in a way that will earn them praise from Trump and avoid his wrath. 'Playing with fire': GOP Sen. Ben Sasse tears into Republicans planning to object to Electoral College results "When we talk in private, I haven’t heard a single congressional Republican allege that the election results were fraudulent — not one. Instead, I hear them talk about their worries about how they will 'look' to President Trump’s most ardent supporters," Sasse wrote. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., had privately urged Republican senators not to challenge the Electoral College vote because it could put some vulnerable Republicans at odds with fervent Trump supporters.
Melania had went ahead to Mar A Lago and decorated the place with Christmas stuff. Trump arrived in a sour mood and ordered all her work to be removed. Today, neither of them will attend the New Years party which many of Trump's supporters paid big time so they could attend. I think Melania is going to dump him after the 20th.
I need to find a bigger source of popcorn. The shit show is running pretty long. Anybody got any "Goobers" ??
I could sleep for a WEEK on the like button for this post!!!! Way to go & tell it straight,Tish !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm encouraged by the fact that the people in the Lincoln Project have tagged themselves as "Never Republicans." And they actually used to be Republicans. Trump (and his spineless, morally empty, cowardly REPUBLICAN allies) turned their stomachs so much that they left the party. They had the sense to recognize a wannabe fascist dictator when they saw him ............. and stand up to him. HUGE KUDOS to THE LINCOLN PROJECT.
My wife has been betting for a couple years now that Melania will dump his lying, cheating, embarrassing carcass soon after he's out of office. I hope she takes him for every nickel she can wring out of his bones.
And LOTS of "Muricans" still think he's taking care of their interests!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Trump proves his self-centered, narcissism every minute ............... but the willfully blind won't see.
Secret Service Shakes Up Presidential Detail Amid Fears Some Agents Aligned With Trump excerpt: "Several recent incidents have led to questions about the political leanings of agents on the presidential detail. Some, for example, urged agents and Secret Service officers not to wear masks on presidential trips because the president saw them as a sign of weakness. That may have contributed to the way in which more than 130 Secret Service officers either tested positive for the coronavirus or were forced to quarantine because they were in close contact with someone who contracted COVID-19."
Trump still hasn't made any public remarks about his White House security official, Crede Bailey, who had amputations after battling the coronavirus since early September. White House official has lower leg amputated after severe Covid-19
No reason given for Trump cutting short his Florida vacation excerpt: "Trump, accompanied by his wife, Melania, arrived at his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida after dark on Dec. 23 and spent practically the entire vacation focused on trying to subvert the voters’ will from last month’s election. Iran was an exception as he stayed mum on many other major developments during the holiday break, including a Christmas Day bombing in Nashville, Tennessee, the discovery in California and Colorado of a new and apparently more contagious variant of the coronavirus, and the death Tuesday of Rep.-elect Luke Letlow, R-La., from COVID-19 complications. Trump’s schedule change means he will miss the glitzy New Year’s Eve party held annually at Mar-a-Lago. Neither Trump nor the White House explained why he decided to shorten a vacation that had been expected to end on Friday."
He cut his trip short at Mar-a-Lago because as he gets closer to his last days in office, he feels the walls closing in on him. He has become increasing paranoid and believes someone is out to steal his presidency, to take away his power and he's helpless to do anything about it. My prediction he'll build a replica of the oval office at Mar-a-Lago
