Trumpled (Alternative Leading)

[flyboy77]

Trump will soon realise how transactional his political power is. While he’s been top dog, he has been surrounded by sycophants. When he loses all power in a day’s time, he’ll lose all of those sycophants in the political class.

Stupidly, he has organised a massive farewell at the Andrews Air Base on the morning of the Inauguration. The email invitations he sent out almost begged the recipients to bring 5 friends with them to fluff out the crowd. Even Scaramucci got an invitation despite the fact he has been a caustic critic of his since leaving the White House.

Mitch McConnell and other Republican politicians have already declined, preferring to attend the inauguration. Reportedly, the insurrection killed off any desire to pander to him. And Trump has handed the Senate Republicans the ability to kill off his remaining political influence.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if his farewell falls flat? Will he cancel it rather than appear in front of an underwhelming crowd?

He reminds me of Bob Hawke. Remember when he secured a role as a presenter on 60 Minutes on the promise he’d be able to work his friendships with world leaders to obtain exclusive interviews? He was humiliated when he couldn’t get through to Maggie Thatcher and was left in the press gaggle calling out to her while she turned her back on him. He failed to understand that he left those friendships behind him when he retired from politics. As someone said, “If you want a friend in Washington, buy a dog”.

Transactional you suggest?

The flaw with your argument is Trump has the people. Outside a dozen leftie centric major cities, in their hoardes.

And if any of you have any interest in the evidence of this massive fraud (most of you won't obviously)
