In reply to the discussion: NYPD WOULD ARREST TRUMP IF HE SHOT SOMEONE ON FIFTH AVENUE: 'IT'S AS SIMPLE AS THAT' [View all]flibbitygiblets
(7,220 posts)Or congresspeople? I actually had a nightmare about that last night and woke up depressed.
Fortunately for all of us, I think he's 100% bluff and bluster. He's a huge coward, more likely than not to be the type who, if he did own a gun, would be more likely than not to have it taken away and used against him.
He's laying the groundwork that nothing he does can result in arrest or even detainment while in office, and once out of office, he'd be pardoned. But the only way to do that for sure would be to resign and have Mike Pants pardon him. And the only way THAT would happen would be if a) it looked like he was going to be impeached AND removed; or b) it looked like he'd lose 2020 election in a landslide.
Gawd I miss the days when no one thought about him.
