Here is a reply I sent to a friend who asked, "Whose side are you on?".
I'm on Trump's side and have been since shortly after he announced.
Trouble is there is not much left of his "side". He certainly would not have suffered the indignity of being impeached TWICE and the second time with significant bi-partisan support. Not much chance he will be convicted in the Senate but there will be significant bi-partisan support for conviction, much more than the first time. And, all of this impeachment crap because of what those azzhole "patriots" did. No other reason.
Because of that, and a few other things that happened since the election, politically he is dead meat. After he leaves office his life will be consumed fighting civil and criminal charges. His financial empire is crumbling. Powerful friends and allies, including his wife, are deserting him. All he really has left are the the "little people" like you and me who do not have the money, influence, or votes to help him.
I would not be surprised if he fled this country to live in exile in a country that does not have an extradition treaty with the USA.
The Wife and I, especially The Wife, are grieving over this whole mess. Maybe we will visit him in exile. But I cannot help thinking that his plight was brought about in large part by his own hubris. Think classical Greek tragedy. If you ever studied ancient Greek mythology you might agree.

Only 75 to 80 million people in the USA on Trump's side. Yet another swing and miss.
It wouldn't surprise me if you really voted for Biden, shixtbag.

Telling the truth is hubris? He was up against swamp dwellers and backstabbers in both parties, plus the media. One of his biggest successes was exposing that fact. A lot of "conservative" heroes were laid bare.

"I shouldn’t joke, I shouldn’t joke because you know what? Running against the worst candidate in the history of presidential politics puts pressure on me. Could you imagine if I lose?" Trump said at the time.
"My whole life — what am I going to do? I’m going to say, I lost to the worst candidate in the history of politics! I’m not going to feel so good. Maybe I’ll have to leave the country, I don’t know."
...Actually Sycamore, you are sort of right....

I worry Trump listened to Alex Jones more than he should have. Trump's policies were a lot better than his rhetoric but the media and democrats were out to get him. I think if he hadn't fallen for their bait especially after he was elected then he would have been better off. Trump and Alex Jones

Trump asked his supporters to meet in DC on Jan 6. This is after he supposedly “lost” the election. Look at the picture to get the outcome of that request. I believe the main reason for the current DC lockdown is to avoid an embarrassingly small crowd that will show up for Biden. Which is another artifact of a stolen election. No other politician in the US can come even remotely close to doing this. The Ds don’t dislike Trump, they are insanely jealous of his power. Real power. Not Soros paid for BS.

In about 2 years after Biden and his merry band of tards get through wrecking the country, you might be surprised. I hear they are pushing for $15 an hour minimum wage.

Not classic Greek tragedy. Plenty of hubris - and not only from DT - but no Greek tragedy ever included the level of ideological corruption/retaliation and sophisticated machina implemented by the ideologues.
I am on the side of those who believe in and support the Constitution as intended.conceived and written. DT has shown considerable support for that and has done so in the face of the above. I favor his efforts.

. But I cannot help thinking that his plight was brought about in large part by his own hubris.
He was never going to be accepted by anyone on the left. He most assuredly did himself a disservice with more independent minded people by picking fights he should not have. Fighting on stage with Dr. Fauci was dumb. Picking fights with entertainers like Lebron was dumb. The comments he made about John McCain were a horrible miscalculation that cost himself and Republicans dearly. Arizona is no longer red, and he owns that. Arizonans of all flavors revered McCain. Him schidting on McCain's grave made a few on the right happy, but he didn't need to that to stay in their good graces. Ultimately his mouth and his arrogance cost him.

That right there is what the left fear. I’m surprised hiden Biden hasn’t pushed to moved the inauguration to virtual / televised only. Least they can lie about the crowds them. The one that left him, never were with him. You, fireball, tons of others. Jumped ship when the others did.
