    I’ve got to be honest I’m so thankful I live UK and not the USA, we had an idiot in Johnson but at least when it was clear what we were dealing with the people and his party turned on him in droves and he was shown the door, but Trump in the USA has a realistic chance of being re-elected by the people and is supported by the Republican Party in majority. Without wishing to offend our American friends it must be said the USA and a huge amount of Americans are completely fucked up that it is truly scary. 

    To be fair, we voted him out of office and most of the leaders in his party really don't want him, but he has this weird hold on a large part of the republican base. I think the folks running against him for the Republican primary are weak, and he's always providing ridiculous sound bites, and that's what keeps him in the news; I feel it overinflates his true chances or influence, if that makes sense. I think the majority of Americans in general won't vote him back into office. 

     

    All that said, I didn't think he had a chance the first go-around and I was very wrong.

    If he is found guilty of fraud and there can be no grey areas on the figures he was submitting to get preferential loan rates, do you think that this will harm his chances of being re-elected or will his supporters not except the evidence or not even care that he committed the fraud even if the evidence clearly shows he did it. 

    I don't think it will hurt his chances of being re-elected at all. It was a civil case too, so I don't think it hinders him in anyway besides maybe from a business standpoint. His supporters are all cultish and think anything that is found wrong against him is political in nature. I've no doubt he'll be the Repubilcan nominee barring his death. I don't even think they'll get him in time on all his indictments. 

    I believe he'll ultimately lose to Biden unless the economy just tanks or something drastic happens (Biden's death). Biden is old and barely functioning, but he'll always be better than Trump.
