Crazy that doubling down and attacking everyone worked for him for nearly 8 decades, that is all he knows, and the feedback loop proved him that the more brazen he is, the better the result.
Thing is, I think for the the first time and his life this is gonna backfire hard. He could have done all this criming, he was probably fine even after the coup, and he could have gone in the sunset with his millions and his shitty consequence-free life. But he just can't help it, he's been a fucking ass for 8 decades he can't just stop. He's obviously past the point of weighting different strategies or anything, he just attacks. Federal judge? Sure. Prosecutor? Sure. Mess and impede a federal investigation? Sure. The "off" switch stopped working a long time ago. He's no longer considering the feedback from his actions. He will attack the judges and keep digging his grave until he's physically removed from society, like an asylum patient.
I haven't seen any evidence he will ever face consequences. I hope I'm wrong.
Yes you have. It’s just been clouded by your opinion.
No, I haven't. He keeps getting away with shit.
He hasn’t gotten away with anything…. We haven’t reached the trial stage of ANY of his indictments. Lighten up and have some patience.
