While some here believe that Trump will continue to be a political force up to 2024 and beyond, I have always been of the opinion that Trump’s future is incarceration until the end of his days. Trump’s behavior has been consistent with the idea that he has never met a rule that he thinks applies to him. We have seen all kinds of evidence of this and we have seen that he governs with an attitude of simply not caring if an action is legal or not. He has done a lot of these actions openly as he had political cover in the Senate. This leads me to believe there is more, much more, that is just under the surface and won’t become apparent until all of Trump’s partisan cronies are removed from office. Investigations will be able to proceed without political interference. Whistleblowers can come forward safely. Records can be accessed and/or recovered. And I have a feeling that once this process begins, a lot of criminal activity that started, ended or passed through 1600 Pennsylvania Ave will be found. The question is, what will it be? Tax fraud, campaign finance violations and national security issues are pretty much guaranteed. But Trump’s criminal ambitions are both wide and deep. What else will we find in there? Illegal spying? He loved accusing Obama of that. Bribery? We know he tried it with Ukraine but there could be others who took the deal. Hacking? Trump was openly asking foreign actors to do this before he was President. What else will we find once we start opening desk drawers in the White House in 2021? --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/predictions-for-the-depth-of-rot-that-will-be-found-in-the-trump-administration/924996)._
