Not realistic about who was in charge. Or should have been, either. I know that SOME of the aides were trying to control him, a bit… but with remarkable lack of success.
tRump must be really doing well…..he looks much better here than he usually does…..and seems to be in a much better frame of mind. Sorry, just kidding!!!
This control thing was the problem from the beginning. The Republithugs let him run because they thought, “We can get him elected because of all the idiots out there in both parties that like the way he has not ethics, just like them. When we get him in office then we’ll put him on a leash and control him the way we want.” Worked up to the point that enough of the electorate realized this guy is nuts and what he does has no relationship to a rational human being. By that time The Fat Orange one, thought he was invincible and that everyone would do what he wanted.
Only hope is that he will get to spend the rest of his years without a pension, without SS protection and that we will never hear from him again. I can only think that the thugs will find someone else to fill there needs.
By the way, we’ll never see Meadows anywhere because they can’t figure out where he lives.
When trump said he didn’t care that the people had weapons, his lack of surprise, was itself surprising. If a direct link between the Maga storm troopers (Proud Boys, etc.) and anyone in trump’s orbit can be established, people from trump on down will be facing jail time. Who was Mark looking to hear from on his phone?
Mark Meadow’s phone will be confiscated next and I would be astounded if his computer and home are not wiretapped by the Feds right now.
I imagine that Trump imagined himself heroically striding into the Senate chamber and delivering Oliver Cromwell’s Speech to the Rump Parliament:
“Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole nation. You were deputed here by the people to get grievances redressed, are yourselves become the greatest grievance.
“Your country therefore calls upon me to cleanse this Augean stable, by putting a final period to your iniquitous proceedings in this House; and which by God’s help, and the strength he has given me, I am now come to do.
“I command ye therefore, upon the peril of your lives, to depart immediately out of this place.
“Go, get you out! Make haste! Ye venal slaves be gone! So! Take away that shining bauble there, and lock up the doors.
“In the name of God, go!”
(Not realizing that Congress can dismiss him, not the other way around.)
