Der Dotard and his actions are the embodiment of the saying "The beatings will continue until morale improves.". Trump hopes that sooner or later more people will like him, so until then he will try just about anything to reach that point...

Trump's approval rating was 34% after Jan 6. I think something's broken.

Yet last time I checked, Trump's approval with Republicans was 81%

I'm still waiting for someone to explain that shit to me.

0% of judges believe he can run for President again.

Polls may matter to politicians, but Trump is arguably not a politician in the traditional sense.

As for his inability to be President, the eligibility is negligible.

Once you win a primary, you have a 50-50 chance of winning.
