Rather Than Defend Democracy, Trump Jokes with Putin

[WalterWilson]

Isn't it reassuring that during these unsettling times, Donald and his chum Putin are laughing it up together? Why shouldn't Donald side with the ex-KGB autocrat who has journalists and political opponents murdered or jailed and who has this funny little uncontrollable habit, like your kleptomaniac Aunt Lucy at the local grocery, of launching cyber attacks against the elections of other countries?

The real fun begins if Donald loses the 2020 election. In that event, will it be martial law to protect the nation from "enemies of the people" so he can continue in office?

Or will he simply cry foul and suspend the results, complaining that the election was rigged-- there were millions of illegal voters voting, e.g.-- and authorize an investigation headed by his protector, that nice Mr Barr, that will drag on for months, then years?

And all the while, Donald, as the only one to be trusted and who has the best interests of the country at heart, will of course have to remain in power; and, oh, by the way, the statute of limitations on Donald's felony crimes will have run out by then.

From somewhere up above, the Founding Fathers, FDR, Reagan and others are looking down with proud, admiring smiles at Donald and the swell job he's doing.

If Trump were to lose in 2020, he won't draconian, bottom line, it would hurt his businesses, which is his primary concern.

You are right though about the screaming it is rigged, thereby launching an array of conspiracies that will keep the likes of Hannity in the dough for years

What is more threatening is Trump's autocrat buddies getting involved in the 2020 election, entities beyond Putin. He just about invited them in last week in his comments about accepting foreign information and as you implied above, billy Barr certainly ain't going say nor do anything

Trump was not running to win. It was to enhance his name. His product was his brand name that fooled people into thinking it meant quality, but actually just high prices for crap. Do you think he said he did not respect McCain because he didn't like people who were captured. A draft dodger did not say that to win, but to shock and scare voters away. But it backfired. His followers could not see what a breach of manners that was. It should have insulted millions. But Trumpys clapped and loved it. A guy who showed great courage and deference toward the other prisoners became an object of ridicule for the Trumpys.
That is when Trump said "I could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and not lose and voters". He said the worse thing he could think of, the most insulting anti-military people thing he could dream up, and you idiots stayed. As a matter of fact begged for more.
The horrible dishonest abuse of Hillary was another breach and should have insulted women. The "grab women by the pussy', did not stop them. Paying off hookers and strippers was no problem.
I bet most Trump voters know in their hearts that Trump is a crook and will steal anything that is not welded to the floor. And they do not care. This is some anti-government vote that was immune to facts. Most of his people are in the same damn place.

Damn, the media just keeps on hounding poor Trump for stealing an election. You know where they didn't have nonsense like this? The Soviet Union!
