Who’s going to do all this??

Who’s going to do it?

Not rhetorical questions. Name some names. No one will bell the cat.

The only way Trump will leave (while breathing) is if he can somehow spin his departure as that of a WINNER. He must be a winner. He cannot tolerate BEING a loser or even being CALLED a loser.

I’m having a wild fantasy that the Democrats should declare him the winner of the popular vote, offer him some kind of permanent title like _President Emeritus_, raise funds to carve his face on Mt. Rushmore next to Lincoln (he was a Republican, too, dontcha know) and give him a win-win way out of this mess so he can play golf every day and open a Trump Hotel in Moscow.
