Nah you underestimate the suck ups in the beltway, he is still the president. And likely won't be impeached, just primaried

you're right, the reporters desperate to have trump be "presidential" will cream themselves over a sustained pivot. but no politician is going to have his back, especially if he shows how easily he's willing to abandon the last group that stuck by him

definitely. he's a bigot for sure, and has a long history proving it. but the open display of bigotry also served the purpose of making him popular with the deplorables, and he purposely played it up for votes. he even wondered once why the rest of the gop pols didn't fully embrace birtherism. well, they understood that the louder you blow the dog whistle, the longer you'll wind up stinking of dogs. trump's brain is too broken to understand that you can't just walk this poo poo back and be the hero for "saving the dreamers from mean jeff sessions" or however he thinks he's gunna spin it. (remember when he thought the dems would be happy he fired comey "for hurting hillary"? lol). the man screws colleagues and burns bridges. it's what he does. his ultimate downfall will be the final, sweetest schadenfreude of this thread.

My grandma constantly pines for the 50s rural America she thinks she grew up in. This idyllic world of respect and cars and Fonzies and tractors.

She was born, and lived, in Panama City until she was 13. No, not Panama City, Florida, the one in Panama.

Ex-Trump staffer says US President has ‘hung us out to dry’ over spiralling Russia probe legal costs

“It's very expensive and nobody’s called me and offered to help,” he said.

“The problem is, it’s very specialised representation, so it takes a certain type of attorney, and they’re quite competent. And you’ll pay for competency.”

Mr Caputo added that he had cashed in his children’s college fund to help pay the lawyer and also provide extra security for his family following “death threats”.
...
“Multi-billionaire Donald Trump has a moral obligation to pay the mounting legal bills of his advisers who are facing four-, five- and six-figure costs just for doing their jobs,” the ex-staffer said.

“After all, the reason Trump advisers have any legal bills at all is because Trump and key spokespersons like Hope Hicks and Kellyanne Conway repeatedly misled the public over Russia contacts, no matter how benign.

This is different, those people are just professionals, whereas the President and I are of the same class! I am sure his check is in the mail! Finally, I have truly arrived to the highest echelons of society!

IIRC, Hillary Clinton's top aide had roughly $100,000 in legal bills when Bill left office in 2000. Her and Bill both hit the speaking circuit hard because they were both in desperate need of quick cash to retire their huge legal bills.

Michael Flynn Family Launches Legal Defense Fund as Bills from Mueller Probe Mount

quote:

Flynn, a top investigation target for months, has seen his legal bills rise "well into seven figures," according to Flynn’s younger brother Joe. In his first television interview, Joe Flynn told Fox News the retired general finds allegations he worked against U.S. national security interests "extremely difficult."

:sigh: this would be funnier if flynn would actually go broke from this instead of inevitably joining right-wing felons g gordon liddy and oliver north as fox commentators

Yeah it's the other big curse if you get targeted by a special counsel investigation.

Legal costs from all the billable hours end up being sky high

To be entirely fair, when I was a kid in the 80s/90s, the most common band t-shirt I saw kinds wearing for most of that time until high school when we could buy our own stuff, were those lovely Led Zeppelin shirts with the angel on the front. You know the ones, those ugly fake tie die ones? From 1977?

At this point anytime I see that image, I assume the person wearing it is white trash.

I bet he caused the pileup while driving for uber/lyft which the insurance contract explicitly states they will not cover because it's considered commercial use and he got a private use contract or whatever

Same difference, legally speaking

If he wasn't told he needed special insurance well, that's just the sort of onerous red tape bureaucratic nonsense that he opposes because greasing the path for our benevolent capitalist overlords will surely mean they improve our lives and don't massively exploit us and throw us away when we stop being useful or profitable

Nope. You have to cover yourself. No one does this though and just lies if they get an accident. "I was driving home from the mall."
