Trump has so much power. One Trump signature, and 1500 people go free.......LMAOThe message Trump appears to be sending to his MAGA supporters and aspiring followers is this: Join me in whatever way you see fit, even through violence, and I will protect you. You are above the law, and if you are convicted for crimes committed on my behalf, I will pardon you. However, the reality is that Trump’s ability to shield his supporters, including insurrectionists, is limited to the duration of his presidential term. He can only issue pardons while in office, and his presidential immunity applies solely to actions performed as part of his official duties.
Trump’s actions suggest a sense of desperation. By winning the presidency, he has bought himself time and leverage. He has yet to pay the $355 million civil judgment for inflating his net worth or the $83.3 million awarded to writer E. Jean Carroll in January 2024 for defamation and sexual assault. Trump appears to be using his presidential immunity as a tool to delay these cases and potentially negotiate reduced settlements.
Additionally, it seems plausible that he may advocate for changes to congressional laws to extend presidential term limits, aiming to evade prison sentences tied to his business dealings. Given the contentious nature of his leadership, further attempts on his life or violent uprisings during this second term are not beyond the realm of possibility.
There are speculations that Trump's actual net worth may be significantly less than he claims, possibly in the millions rather than billions. This could explain his various business ventures and promotional efforts, including meme coins, Trump-branded Bibles, guitars, sneakers, and watches. He also capitalizes on the MAGA brand through merchandise and is selling inauguration memorabilia to generate additional revenue. He may croak in office and after the courts collect on his judgements he will leave Don, Eric and Ivanka with nothing.
Yes, but at what cost? This may be the straw that breaks the camel's back, and this in his first week in office. At the very least his credibility has suffered. Will his popularity soar on Feb. 1 when he imposes tariffs on multiple countries?Trump has so much power. One Trump signature, and 1500 people go free.......LMAO
