        He also makes bank campaigning. That’s far more important to him than anything.
        He’ll never see a jail cell anyways.

          That’s also weird to me. As soon as i have enough money to feel kinda secure for the next few months, making more money is not a huge priority anymore. Other interests then become way more important. This too is not optimal, i know. But it always has been like this for me. I wonder why i’m missing the greed gene 🤔

            I feel the same way but I don’t want the back-and-forth of finding a job. Accumulate enough to retire very modestly and then just enjoy living. I can’t imagine trying to hoard more money than I need to survive this lifetime.

        If avoiding prison was all he wanted he could just release his medical records. The one who definitely don’t say he had a series of strokes.

        He’s a powerful narcissist, with probable dementia, surrounded by yes-men very heavily invested in this election. I’m not even sure he even has the capacity to fear legal repercussions for his actions.

          Trump planned for and started this run years ago when his dementia wasn’t nearly as advanced.

          Besides, plenty of people with serious mental conditions go to prison. There is only one reason he won’t be one of them. He’s wealthy and only the first part of “Liberty and Justice” applies to him.

        You’re crediting him with far too much competence.

        His handler has said he has to continue, and he’ll obey

      You can’t retire if you have never worked?

      Aah, that’s what the 15 minutes mc donalds was for.
