(90,966 posts)If he eventually wins the White House. I cant help but think (or is that DREAM?) that he can undo most, if not all, of the damage the Donald has left behind.
Maybe a potential sale of Mar-a-Lago could help pay for it? I wonder if the Trump kids and/or grandchildren would unload it after the old mans gone? Or maybe theyll just monetize it? A gift thatd keep on giving, at least to them.
AND YES, Im trying to think and visualize the America AFTER Trump. Because, unless that bastard gets us all blow up, the donald will NOT live forever. Maybe the trump name will, because SOMEBODY will figure out how to make the name keep paying. But the actual, tangible INFLUENCE can be expected to lose momentum, and quite possibly sooner than later.

(738 posts)like all the other evil bastards history has left us with. His descendants will have to change their names. President Newsom would obliterate it wherever it exists and the Democratic congress will do whatever it takes to make it happen.

(269 posts)Unfortunately a 100% tax is likely to run afoul of the 'takings clause' of the 5th Amendment.
