Trump's Descent

By Timothy D. Naegele[1]

It won't be pretty.  Unlike Richard Nixon who did it with some style after Watergate crushed his landmark reelection, Trump’s anger is likely to build and build.[2]  Witnessing rats leaving a sinking ship isn't a pretty sight, but this time it may be especially agonizing.

Obviously, the Democrats will revel in Trump's political descent and anticipated demise.  Having done nothing positive in years, this will be a lifeline thrown to their sinking ship.  Gavin Newsom, the biggest loser of all, will believe that the presidency is his for the taking.

He and his fellow Democrats will pile on Trump, like Trump and his MAGA faithful piled on Comatose Joe Biden and Willie Brown's former ho Kamala Harris.  And what about the MAGA faithful themselves?  Many may be angry and disillusioned, and write off politics as a lost cause.

And what if Trump survives, and Watergate's legacy does not repeat itself?  Will Trump's health hold up, and will JD and Usha Vance succeed The Don and Melania?  And what about young Barron's future, in business and/or politics?  What about the payback to Barack Hussein Obama, the Leftist judges and others who opposed Trump, and the top Democrats who are named by Jeffrey Epstein and/or Ghislaine Maxwell (e.g., Bill Clinton)?[3]

Stay tuned.
