Mike Pompeo is basically limiting which rights America defends to religious and property rights. Religious to pander to evangelicals so they vote for Trump this fall, and property so shell corporations in the middle east know we got them covered. As for gay rights, we've basically told them to get fucked. Womens rights and gay rights don't matter according to Mike Pompeo.

Good! The guy's going to make more money swindling people in years to come, who better for him to swindle than his own supporters?

(It could also mean he's privately given up on winning in November, double yay)

He'll probably blow the money to commission Nascita di Ivanka.

I also wouldn't be surprised if he swindles the GOP of their money. He is, after all, viewed as a con man.

I would have thought if he loses the election, the Trump brand's value will plummet.

An analysis of Donald's pathological and shameless lying habit

Sheds light on his bullshit output.

“You can’t con all people, at least not for long. You can create excitement, you can do wonderful promotion and get all kinds of press, and you can throw in a little hyperbole. But if you don’t deliver the goods, people will eventually catch on.”
Donald Trump, “The Art of the Deal”, 1987

“Leadership: Whatever happens, you’re responsible. If it doesn’t happen, you’re responsible.”
Donald Trump, Twitter, 2013

Many people are finally catching on (and does he not like that or what) and I actually agree with him on leadership. Trump is responsible for the mess. Do not let him get away with it.

Don't forget to blow away his enabllers like McConnell electorally as well. The United States is an abused child and people like Mitch are the spouse who watch and say or do nothing while the abuse commences.

If he loses, he might do it just to spite the GOP. After all, if Trump loses, it is because the GOP did not show enough loyalty. He'd just be returning the favor (in his mind).

Pretty accurate speculation there.

Yes, when you are a strong anti Trump person, anything anti Trump is an accurate speculation.

It wouldn't even surprise me anymore if there are people willing to take out a second mortgage on their house just to be able to give the money to Trump.

Trump is a businessman first and foremost. He's not one of those people who sinks endless good money after bad. If he sees the writing on the wall he might end up simply pocketing all the cash the MAGAs send him.

He drops out the race and doesn't refund his fans even a penny.

Certainly a better con-artist than businessman, but I definitely get your point. Either way, I'm beginning to think even he's seeing the writing on the wall in terms of his Presidency.

And, perhaps, he's fine /w it, he can spend the remainder of his days post-presidency cash-strapped and ranting to millions of still-devoted fans about how he was cheated, how the election was rigged etc. In other words, he gets to keep his money and his loyal following, that way he never has to admit to himself that he fucked up.

Hillary could die tomorrow and years later people will still blame her for everything that goes against their worldview.

It's almost admirable, I wish I could be a cartoonish boogeyman despite not doing anything at all.

Hillary Clinton is the GOP's own Emmanuel Goldstein and when she dies they'll scramble to find a replacement.

Not to mention how she is somehow responsible for killing anyone who dies anywhere on the planet.
