Trump Seems to Be Having a Bad End of the Year

[MineralMan]

Truly. He has resorted to machine-gunning posts on his social media laughing-stock site. He has attacked Nigerian people for a poorly-stated reason, putting our military to work doing his will.

His poll numbers are dropping like a stone. He is becoming more and more inarticulate in his speech. He is walking poorly and has to sit down to give speeches.

He's just flat not doing well.

Not too long ago, I made a prediction that he would resign before the end of the year. That led to a lot of laughter at my presumptuousness. I still see that as a possibility, although I think it may take a little longer for him to finally cave in and do it. but, I think he's still going to do exactly that soon, if he doesn't simply keel over one day soon.

My hopes continue to be strong about this.

Here's my original prediction:

[Tanuki]

1. ....

[cksmithy]

2. I sure hope so.

[marble falls]

3. I know! And ain't it grand! It's the Ghost of Christmas Future and it is on his tail!

[MineralMan]

5. "Bah," said Scrooge. "Humbug."

Dickens' best line of all he wrote.

[marble falls]

10. ... just before Marley showed up, followed by reality.

[Coldwater]

4. That Christmas Day Meltdown was one for the record books

[flashman13]

25. Bravo

[GoCubsGo]

6. Not bad enough for my liking.

May it only get worse for him (and not the rest of us.)

[MineralMan]

8. Be careful what you wish for.

Trump has the football and the button.

[GoCubsGo]

9. That's why I qualified it with

"and not for the rest of us."

[MineralMan]

12. The problem is: Trump Don't Care.

[marble falls]

11. Maybe. Maybe not. It is alleged he had a toy button his last term.

[MineralMan]

14. But, he has a "Toy Soldier" as his Secretary of "War."

[marble falls]

16. No batteries, the Toy Soldier runs on alcohol and war reverie.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

55. Bravo!

I just hate being told to be scared, especially of Piggy.

[Ocelot II]

7. It needs to get worse. Here's hoping.

[ms liberty]

27. I really feel like he'll blurt out the n word before it's over.

Probably to a reporter who is female.

[Hotler]

13. Needs to stay alive long enough to hear the clang of the prison door shut on him. nt

[MineralMan]

15. Frankly, That's the Least of My Concerns.

First and foremost is: Get him out of the White House!

[SergeStorms]

22. The lid on a casket....

never opens again. I'd rather hear that than a cell door clanging shut. There are too many bought-and-paid-for judges who can open that cell door for him. Not so with the coffin lid. 😁
Just my opinion, of course.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

17. The Antichrist will double down w/evil in order to obtain everlasting fame. He has no good in him. He's using

this Holy Season to double down on his evil actions. He's becoming demented and will increasingly lean on the evil people in his command.

[surfered]

18. It couldn't happen to a less empathetic wanna be King or to a more despicable, soulless human being,

But don’t get me started.

[Keepthesoulalive]

19. There is a saying

We will not know the day nor the time. But when the inevitable happens this old lady is going to hurt herself busting a move.

[hlthe2b]

20. Not bad enough, I fear...

If there is anything short of an acute, devastating health event, I firmly believe he will stop at NOTHING to exact revenge on whomever he perceives is causing him distress--even if it hurts his family and even HIMSELF in the aftermath. I don't think he can move past the perceived "release" from DOING the act, no matter how harmful, and that might well include devastating incitements of war. Pulling the US from NATO? Tactical nukes against his latest country target? Who knows, but I certainly don't think he would stop at the warnings from whoever is left around him.

Honestly, if he had any true patriots around him who remain so, I'd hope they would step in. Maybe if he NEEDS medication (dementia symptom reduction, for example-consensus of his physicians) that he refuses, there would be some means to get him to take it. No. I certainly am not even remotely suggesting someone harm him medically...But, he might well refuse medication that maintains his "sanity," and emotional "controls"--whatever is left

But I fear anything short of a devastating personal health event that precludes his acting in retaliation puts us all at immense risk in the coming days, weeks, and months.

[SergeStorms]

21. He's "wagging the dog" all over the place.....

trying to get the Epstein heat off himself. It isn't going to work, Krasnov. Might as well die soon. Very soon!

[Wild blueberry]

23. He will not resign. He may flee.

He cannot escape mortality.

[orleans]

24. after what that monster has done to this world

i hope he has a horrible time for the rest of his ugly, deranged, murderous, perverted life

and for everyone's sake i hope it doesn't drag on much longer

[greatauntoftriplets]

26. It's well deserved.

He's given us all a bad year.

[cab67]

28. He won't step aside voluntarily.

He would see that as an acknowledgment of weakness and loss of power. He cannot tolerate that.

The only way to get him out of office while he's alive is to 25th him, and I can't see the current cabinet doing that.

Impeachment is highly unlikely; even if Democrats take the Senate next year, their majority won't be big enough

[liberalla]

29. ...simply KEELING over would be my choice for him.

Preferably on camera!

It might be the first honest, honorable and dignified thing he's done in his life.
Let's just end this chapter and get on with repairing and healing America.

We'll still have the trump STAIN for centuries!

[tazcat]

30. He needs to go to prison cleaning black and brown mens toilets. The traitor needs to pay!!!

[flashman13]

31. At the current rate of deterioration, I give him six months max. We could start a pool on the date he crashes out.

[Brother Buzz]

32. You're observations are spot on BUT the marmalade shartcannon will NEVER willingly resign

Resigning would be admitting failure, and the ass is hardwired to NEVER admit a single mistake.

That being said, the men behind the curtain may have other plans.

[MineralMan]

35. Perhaps, but there is a way for him to rationalize quitting.

How that works is that you believe that you are "owning the people" by removing yourself. Since you are the only hope, you think, that will be a hard blow for people to take, you think.

Sort of the "I'm taking my ball and going home, you losers. You'll be sorry!" We've all seen people do that.

[Brother Buzz]

47. It would take some extraordinary fiction to explain a scorched earth departure

But if it parks the ass in the weeds, barking through that dying truth social thingy, I’m OK with it

[OldBaldy1701E]

43. You are correct.

He won't and they do.

That is what worries me the most. Their 'second act' plans.

[MiHale]

33. February 2nd, Groundhogs Day...

Got that date in a dead pool. Can’t go through this again.

[slightlv]

40. Theres a group of Tarot readers and astrologers who say no later the Feb 3.

[bucolic_frolic]

34. Your OP title needs to be shortened by three words. /nt

[ananda]

36. My sister has a psychic friend who said he'll be gone..

by the end of the year.

My sister thought she was being optimistic,
but you never know.

Here's hoping!

[MineralMan]

37. That's Encouraging.

I'm far from being a psychic, but Trump is definitely a psychopath. If he gets it into his head that he can say, "That'll show them!," it might just work to get him the hell out of the White House. Maybe. I hope.

[ananda]

48. Well, there's 5 days left.

Here's hoping!

[Permanut]

38. I hope he doesn't resign..

I would feel so owned if he did that.

[MineralMan]

41. LOL! That's the ticket, right there.

[ABC123Easy]

39. Come on now

The prerequisites to incite him to resign are either 1- a conscious (ability to feel shame) or 2- some kind of criminal charges agreed to disappear with his resignation. 1 is laughable, not gonna happen, 2 would require an independent DOJ....again laughable.

[MineralMan]

42. Oh, OK. Never mind...

[Tetrachloride]

44. Polls dropping like a stone ?

[AverageOldGuy]

45. I doubt he will resign . . .

. . . unless absolutely forced out by the 25th Amendment and/or with his dementia becoming too much for even the MAGAts.

I'm hoping he just croaks and the sooner the better. I know, that will give us JD but he has nowhere near the following as Trump.

[LymphocyteLover]

46. One doctor said at the rate Dump is declining from dementia, he gave him 5 months

until he passes and that was about a month ago... FWIW

[D23MIURG23]

49. End of the year might be a little soon, but I doubt he finishes his term.

Between losing popularity, losing his stranglehold on the GOP, and losing his health, the knives are going to come out for him eventually. The same people who wouldn't dare say a word in opposition to him will try to hang the policies they greenlit around his neck like a millstone, and send him to the bottom of the ocean.

[Dave in VA]

50. hemorrhoidectomy

The removal of the orange hemorrhoid on the rectum of our lives.

😈

[sprinkleeninow]

51. Kave or Keel? 🤔

The Clash

[Skittles]

52. that narcissistic POS would NEVER resign

NOPE

[MineralMan]

53. Unless he can make it his choice

And go out like he won. Narcissists have to feel like they won, whether they did or not. It's all what he believes. They can rationalize almost anything.

[bluestarone]

54. Well, i just have to disagree here. I'm thinking i have a maybe 50% chance of being right, and you also have a 50%

chance of being right. So only thing i can do is disagree. Guess we'll see who is right. BTW, the only reason i disagree is this MONSTER doesn't give a dam about anybody else period. Maybe health wise, but i think he will last most of the NEXT year at the earliest.
