8 days left of trump (#4364)

      It now appears that trump will run out the clock on his appointed presidency. He has 8 days left to hang on and since there is no indication otherwise that he will resign we can expect him to stay and then either at the last minute resign and then let pence pardon him or my favorite, pardon himself and his children. His children will be within norms of the pardon clause but trump himself may well find that he has screwed himself legally. Certainly it is not legally appropriate to be able to pardon oneself. However it works out over these last few days of trump it is still the last few days of trump.
     The House tomorrow will impeach trump again for the second time and whether the impeachment count goes to the senate right away or later on after a couple of months is still being debated as to the most efficacy for the impeachment charge. I lean toward holding off and getting a chance to examine the insurrection incident and all the new information that will come about due to President Biden having access to all the trump paper trail on this and other connections. Taking a bit of time to get a clearer picture sounds like the correct path to me anyway. Otherwise going to a mcconnell led senate is just a dead end. However that works out though trump will be in a lot of trouble going forward from many different jurisdictions and that is soothing to we who have a law and order agenda for the criminality of the trump administration.
     Despite the deadly agenda of trump over these last few days it is a real victory for our democracy that not only did trump get defeated for a second term but the senate losses in the Georgia special runoff elections have changed the majority to we democrats. A real time satisfying result that does make us feel like we are getting out of this nightmare of trump. 8 days is just 192 hours and when those hours are up we will have a new day here in America. Getting back on the worlds stage and making the American people the highest priority again is about to come to fruition. What a glorious new chapter that is about to be written in the history of our nation!
