Surreal... yet strangely enough... not at all surprising.

Oh boy...

 

It kind of boggles the mind. But then when you sit a sec and think of everything that has passed... it's like yeah, that's totally on brand.

THE WHOLE FAMILY IS LINING UP AT THE TROUGH:

 

Eric Trump's wife and Don Jr.'s girlfriend are on Brad Parscale's payroll — at $15K a month

President Trump's campaign manager, Brad Parscale, has been paying $15,000 a month — the equivalent of the top White House salary — to Lara Trump and Kimberly Guilfoyle, the wife and girlfriend of Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., respectively, for campaign work.

The payments, the existence of which was revealed in March by the New York Times, reportedly came through one of Parscale's private companies, Parscale Strategy.

I guess the reports that he was finally humiliated enough into quitting making an ass of himself is true. 
 

 

[do or die]

So, now even at just playing as Commander in Chief, or wartime President.....its not worth the time and effort.
Frankly, the bottom line.....is that Donald Trump is not worth anyone's time or effort.......

Wartime President just remembered that he has bone spurs.

Biden predicts Trump will try to postpone US election

Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has predicted that US President Donald Trump will try to postpone the country’s November election in an attempt to win. ”Mark my words, I think he is gonna try to kick back the election somehow, come up with some rationale why it can’t be held,” Biden said during an online fundraiser on Thursday. The 77-year-old former vice president said it is “the only way he thinks he can possibly win.”Six months before US voters head to the polls, Trump’s mind is already in election mode.

TBF, an epidemic is a pretty good rationale. The Dems did not want the WISC primary to go through.

It’s virtually impossible though.  And he could only delay it to the extent a winner is inaugurated in January on time.  If anything a delay would strengthen the argument for mail in votes etc.

I believe it would take a constitutional amendment, no?  It’s hard wired into the constitution that this term ends on inauguration Day.  If there is no election winner that kicks off a big problem. But trumps term ends.

If you are thinking that the GOP and Trump have any desire to obey the law and/or American constitution, the events of the past few months ought to have shown you otherwise. He has already spoken of dismissing both houses in order to force through appointments, something never never done before, ignored the emoluments rules and has openly conspired with foreign governments to affect elections. All he needs do is dismiss both houses, declare an emergency, and postpone the election by fiat. Not a big step, given his actions.

I don't think he would do that directly. He would probably delay indefinitely, as he has done with some of his appointments, where he "temporarily" appointed people so that he did not have to have them confirmed by hearings.
