He shouldn’t have double downed though and that will come back to bite him.

Dem leadership is backed into a corner on this because they made a fuss over Kavannaugh’s decades old allegations so now everyone’s decades old skeletons are kryptonite.

Apologize and move on.

Not being allowed to hold public office for such dumb actions regardless of how long ago they occurred is perfectly fine. IF you cannot stand the heat of being exposed then DO NOT run for public office. That is not "burning at the cross".

I agree with that post. The kind of person Trump strikes me as is a live like a king type. So, give the opportunity to have someone else pay for his office space and staff, and SS protection, is fully in keeping with that type of person.

Nice.

Huh, so have these same republicans called for Trump to resign after the racist statements he has made WHILE IN OFFICE....not 30 years ago like Northam? Why haven’t they called for Trump’s resignation? It’s odd. I do think Northam needs to resign but he should wait for the leader of our great nation to show true leadership and resign himself first.

I should add that Trump will be the most expensive ex-president to maintain of all time. Congress will need to place a cap on covered expenses to stop Trump from running up the tab to exorbitant levels, such as paying far above market rate to himself for use of public-paid-for offices in his own buildings.

I think Beto says all the right things and could be golden in the national spotlight.

I think Biden’s front runner support will fade. No front runner this far out has EVER won the nomination.

I've been saying all along, Beto will the whole shebang win if he decides to run.

And he went from a solid “I’m not running.” to “Nothing has been decided yet”.

I think he talked it over with his family and changed his tune on that. His reluctance was based on having young kids.

“Nothing has been decided.” Is shorthand for F yes I’m running!

He visited every county in TX during his Senate campaign. What would it take for him to visit every county or equivalent in the US? There are 3242 of them. Assuming he commits this fall that gives him roughly 18mo till Election Day. That’s roughly 6 a day. Do it!!!! Lol.

Putin told me to do it. Ben Garrison is a Russian agent and you are insane. OK?

Democrat Governor Ralph Northam of Virginia just stated, “I believe that I am not either of the people in that photo.” This was 24 hours after apologizing for appearing in the picture and after making the most horrible statement on “super” late term abortion. Unforgivable!

HR Clinton on Twitter today said, in regards to Gov. Northam (D-VA)...

“This has gone on too long. There is nothing to debate. He must resign.”

GOPers who agree are Hillary loving pieces of trash!

One-term presidents don't get medical benefits, but Individual-1 wouldn't care about that or about the pension. The only thing he might care about is secret service protection for him and his family. I'm pretty sure he gets that for life no matter what.

Individual-1 will never resign. That's just a pipe dream.

Will he need secret service protection inside a federal prison? From other inmates?

And how much of his assets will be confiscated by the federal and state authorities? Will he have enough for his retirement if he gets out?

Assets???? Try extreme debt.

Trump desperately needed a loan in 2016. Banks denied him. So, who loaned him money?

Not being burned at the cross to ask for his resignation as governor. And it wasn't just dumb. Flat out undeniably racist. He can go get another job. Political leaders should not have openly racist pasts, and we should not stand for that. He was 25 when that happened. It's not like he was a minor.

Democrats have recent history of asking those with even remotely sketchy info on them to resign, and they do it quickly. What Al Franken was accused of doing was nothing compared to Roy Moore and Trump, but Democrats said, "sorry buddy, you're out."

You very well may be right; he's such a screwed up individual his end game is pretty uncertain. I don't give Trump much credit for anything, and if I constantly err in any way, it is to give people in general the benefit of the doubt that they will do the logical thing, so because of that, I still think it is more likely than not that he will resign when everyone and their brother tells him it is over. BUT, again, you could very well be right. I hope for the country that he resigns rather than being forcibly removed from office...though to be completely honest, seeing him forcibly removed from office would make me smile.

Thanks for the research. Good to see some content on here.

That said, and your findings aside, I think that it would be a HUGE blunder on the part of the country to ever fail to provide secret service protection for any ex-POTUS regardless of how awful of a person he is, how terrible of a president he was or how he leaves office.

I do notice that the “outrage” of the Left is far more subdued than during the Covington incident when they went after high school kids. It’s nowhere near the level of anger.

If this was a GOP governor wearing blackface and posing with a KKK outfit during his university years, the media would be screaming nonstop for his head on a plate.
