He is afraid.

Last edited Tue Sep 24, 2019, 11:19 PM - Edit history (1)

So MSNBC reports that Trump called Pelosi today and asked if they could "work something out" about this whistleblower complaint.

Pelosi said earlier at the Atlantic event that he had also told her he thought they might make a deal on gun legislation..

Another quid pro quo???

he's always been that way. Frankly, I still think he's trying to win his dead father's love.

He has all the hallmarks of a classic puer aeternus.

Calling the Speaker and asking her to work out a deal. Shows her that he is in deep shit. He fucked up and wants her to clean up the mess?

Not going to happen, Donnie. Say goodbye to that "dump" you have been living in for almost 3 years.

That’s what he said to Comey about going easy on Mike Flynn. And there are undoubtedly more examples that we don’t even know about.

There’s a shitload we don’t know about.

Probably several shitloads.

Not only does that sound desperate, it also seems to be like trying to bribe a cop at the station.

I think he is only adding to his problem here and should STFU completely. We know he might not be able to do that, though.

Oh, yeah. Dig that hole nice and deep, boy!
