Best way to defeat trumpism is to put it to a vote and watch him take his ball home with him when he loses.

He’s a terrible looser and the GQP apparently isn’t at rock bottom yet.

The only thing I can see Donnie running for anytime soon is the Russian border.

GOP: “DJT was the bestest president of all time. Everybody is saying it. We just don’t deserve another four years that wounderful.”

Even Trump couldn’t say with a straight face that he would want to spend more time with his family. So…a health option.

And then, he really means his financial health, soon to take a nose-dive from the investigations, I hope.

I can think of a number of reasons he might not. Like, #24601 for instance.

While there is no shortage of reasons for him to run again - narcissism being high on the list - I can’t help but think that he views it as one of the only potential escapes from the mounting criminal investigations closing in around him.

A bigger caveat might be the success of the various voter suppression laws around the country.

I think he would only consider running if he felt confident the fix was in.

“He’s one of the best presidents we’ve had in terms of policies…," one House GOP lawmaker told Politico.

Ok, anonymous guy; name one of his policies.

He’s one of the best presidents we’ve had in terms of policies.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: He didn’t have any policies.

He’d even run from prison, if by some miracle those events take him there.

The rot is going far beyond even what we wail about today, and I don’t know what’s going to hold it in check, much less stop it. I hate automatic gloom as I heard and saved this:

Automatic Gloom is

(1) Manly

(2) Easy

(3) Authoritative

(4) Projects expertise

But I would be lying if I thought I had any better options besides the usual - donate, volunteer, have tough conversations…a spoon to dig through a mountain.
