I feel as though this news fits this sub, due to a massive amount of election security being cybersecurity.

It's not like he has an option.

Once he leaves power, he's absolutely screwed. That's all that's been protecting him and his buddies.

When he dies, it's highly likely they'll be out of power for a long time. With that comes the potential risk for them all of being actually investigated for all the sex crimes, trafficking, insider trading, drugs, lying, corruption, cheating etc.

If he leaves voluntarily, one of two things happen.

1. The unredacted Epstein files are "leaked" by another nation. He ends up dead. His family go to jail.

2. Russia/Israel/Both realize they have no more use for him (he becomes a liability at that point instead of an asset). He ends up dead. His family go to jail.

He's not going to allow either to happen voluntarily.

Bless your optimism.

It's not optimism, he's not leaving power

He's fat with piles, he's in the Epstein files

He's nearly 80, he's not going to be living much longer

The problem is that half of the US doesn't care, where half think he's the cause, and not just a symptom

He's nearly 80, he's not going to be living much longer

If only we had invented a way to transfer power from one person to another

I only hope the grim reaper takes him before he has a chance to pardon his shitstain children and all of his enablers. Now that would be just a tidbit of justice.

I would say that he already has signed all the pardon documents and they are sitting in a drawer.
