He'll give up in 1-2 hours max.

Other than #7 and the timeframe, that might be pretty much what might happen*, albeit implemented incrementally. I couldn't imagine the military being used to get him out as others have espoused.


* If he tried to stay on and in the building, which I don't really think will happen. It's just a hypothetical scenario. Probably.

Well, in reality Trump is ... not very brave. A squad of, what FBI or security guards? Anyway armed officials. First remove any supporters, they are probably cowards, too (ops, I said it there..). Then walk in to him and say, "You will come with us, mr. Trump."

What do you think he will do?

I think he'll leave the White House a few days early to go golfing and never come back. He'll hint about getting sworn in for a second term. He'll have a rally on election day, and have present a Federal judge, dropping more hints about getting the judge to swear him in.

But then he won't.

He'll spend the next year or two threatening to return from Elba to reclaim his throne, doing lots of fundraisers to support that.

After that, my crystal ball grows too cloudy to be of any use.

Well, I think it's good that far. Oh, and he can have books ghostwritten for him, and he can do speeches at exorbitant fees, and ... somehow, people like him will always float to a degree. BUT, there will also be books, interviews, articles, etc. against him. Honest ones from people he ******, and no doubt dishonest ones from people just out to make a buck, all exposing him as a looser, pedophile, junkie, and whatever you can think of.

If they preface it with "Sir..." he'll do anything!

Will the people who pay out the big bucks to hear the likes of an ex president speak after dinner pay to listen to Trump? I really don't think they will, the ones who will pay to listen to Trump are those that can't afford to pay Trump.

I support President @realDonaldTrump's insistence Section 230 repeal be part of the defense authorization bill.
Big Tech is the only industry in America that cannot be sued for their business practices and are not meaningfully regulated.

This must come to an end.

It is our best chance to change course while we still can.
I take a back seat to no one when it comes to supporting our nation’s military.
However, Section 230 is allowing America to be fundamentally changed as it relates to the flow of information.

We have a Defense Department to protect our liberty, but our liberty is at risk if we don’t change Section 230.
 
finally a problem the private market can't solve. but on the flip side that problem is people don't like conservative opinions on the internet.

I would love to see the democrats call the bluff of Trump and his bootlickers.

We keep hearing how "Trump/republicans love the troops"... seeing Trump veto a military funding bill might hopefully cause people to see that for the lie that it is.

I'm trying to wrap my head around this section 230 thing. As i understand it, currently, social media sites such as face book, twitter, etc, cannot be sued for content people post, due to being exempt (?) For some reason, conservatives feel this discriminates against them (?) but wouldnt the proposed unexemption allow Joe Liberal to sue twitter and facebook for something Jon Conservative posted, thereby causing Twitter and Facebook to further crack down on crack pot inciteful postings? or even shut the whole **** down? What do conservatives hope to gain from this?

Do you expect it to make sense? Well, in a way it does: Twitter is beginning to mark his posts as disputed, and he knows once he is no longer president, they'll probably lock his account. So he wants to hit back at them.

Not in a useful way, but hell ...

No, I understand Trump's problem with it. He doesn't like Twitter censoring his tweets and not being able to threaten to sue them. But what does Trump's colon polyp Graham mean by it risks our liberty? Our liberty to just spew whatever lies we want unchecked on the internet?
 
Larry Kudlow just stated the terrible jobs number are "Not the be all and end all: and the economy is in overlal good shape.
Shades of the Hoover White House after the Depression hit.
This is what you get when you hire somebody because you seen him on TV.

Yup... it is typical right-wing GOP thinking. Either they don't actually WANT to get rid of section 230 protections (and are just using it as a rallying cry/smoke screen to whip up their base), or if they do, they haven't thought about it all the way though.

Reminds me of the times trump has claimed he wanted to change the libel laws to make it easier for him to sue people for being mean to him, ignoring the fact that changing those laws would also mean he'd be sued by people he has insulted on-line.

I've said it before, if Larry Kudlow says something you can almost guarantee it is incorrect.
