Will Trump's downfall be similar to Al Capone's?

[Music Man]

Al Capone was a violent gangster and racketeer, feared for acts such as the Valentine's Day Massacre. And it was tax evasion that ultimately landed him a long sentence in prison.

Trump and Company could very well have committed treason with the Kremlin. And the thing that may be his downfall are payments to porn stars that violate campaign finance laws.

We live in strange times. I look forward to the Coen Brothers movie about all this.

1. As I recall venereal disease was Capone's ultimate downfall

So, yes, they could be very similar.

4. My husband's been saying all along that the thing that will bring DT down is the IRS...

He references Al Capone as well.

Whatever it takes, imo. There is an even chance that GOP Senators and Reps are capable of obstructing the Trump investigation for the next 6 years. Like Sodom and Gomorrah, I don't think there is a single honorable soul left in the GOP except John McCain, and he's dying.

5. Capone died of syphilis in his Florida home.

6. Off the subject but...

My dad once sat next to Al Capone on an airplane trip.
He said they talked and he seemed very nice and polite.
