Though he is stepping down from leadership, so that’s something. He is clearly old and sick, but he is not ranting and raving and showing off his dementia as Trump is.
Trump may die before the election?
That isn’t a sound argument - That is just a desperate wish.
It’s one possibility in the “ball of shit,” which keeps getting bigger and bigger…
Sorry, zero points for you if he drops dead. Your only concrete prediction that wasn’t obvious from the beginning is that a “cabal” of GOP operatives will somehow force Trump out and keep him off the ballot.
This deeply undermines your argument. There needs to be organization in the GOP for them to, you know, organize and boot him out.
Incorrect! My point #5:
Trump looks like dogshit (even for Trump). His health is failing fast. Death or incapacity by the time of the convention no longer seem like distant possibilities.
Wrong again! My step #4:
A cabal arises within the GOP to push Trump out by any means. The may promise open civil war in the GOP if Trump is the nominee.
I said a “cabal”–not the entire GOP. The fracturing we are seeing the GOP right now makes the arising of such a cabal more likely, not less. And “open civil war” is exactly what we are seeing right now.
The scene has been set for a total implosion.
Was not one of your “predictions,” but was categorized (correctly) as simple observations made by lots of people.
As has been pointed out repeatedly, there is almost no mechanism to remove Trump from the ballot, and whatever narrow pathway existed was washed away when Trump purged the RNC. The chaos only benefits him.
You can’t pull the levers of power when a mob has destroyed the entire machine.
My major prediction is that he won’t be the nominee. If that’s because he is dead or incapacitated, I totally get those points!
Ya-knoo… you do have a point here. I disagree only with “the chaos only benefits him” part. It doesn’t. It certainly doesn’t help him become the nominee more, and it certainly isn’t of benefit in the general election.
I think the whole GOP is about to go through a complete, almost unimaginable implosion that, by the convention, will leave Trump and the RNC totally broke and clearly on the path to losing in November. I still think the “ball of shit” will take Trump out as the nominee by the time of the convention. Everything is worse for him than ever, basically, and the GOP itself looks much sicker than when I wrote the OP.
If a shadow cabal rises from the chaotic nonsense of the GOP, boots Trump, and installs their own non-MAGA representative to take control of the party, I will give you full credit for prognostication.
If Trump dies between now and November, I will give you full credit for winning a coin flip.
Go, ball of shit!
This seems to be a whole lot of effort to convince us that we shouldn’t worry about Trump at all…and that is just damn dangerous a road to go down, especially considering how magnificently that backfired before.
So 50/50 odds? Not bad!
Better than Vegas!
No, the odds are NOT 50/50 that Trump will die before taking office. Besides, your claim isn’t that he won’t take office-Your claim is that he won’t even be the Republican nominee. The Republican National Convention is July 15-18, so whatever far-fetched miracle you are hoping for has to happen on or before the 18th of July.
Don’t think so. I say above:
Take away Trump, and these dumb mutherfuckers aren’t just going to go away. We have a cultural and political wreck that will take a generation to repair–maybe longer.
I don’t think Trump will get the nomination. If he does, I don’t think he will win, but we need to fight like holy hell against him. If he does win, we need to plan and implement, not the Resistance, but the Revolution. If Biden wins, we need the Revolution anyway… preferably in a form as peaceful as possible. Our country is in trouble, and 30% of the population have gone mad. Nothing about this is easy.
Say what??
I agree.
He will also not be the nominee if he dies before the election.
Mark my words! If I am wrong, I will come back into this thread and say, “I was wrong.”
It’s about time a topic aligned with your name.
LMFAO! 3x
Right? I couldn’t let it pass.
Pun intended?!
