Would Trump make a deal?

If Nancy Pelosi were to send a message to Mitch McConnell that if he can get Trump to resign before Thanksgiving, then she would not file Articles of Impeachment, would he accept the deal ??

(Trump may believe that the Presidency is the only thing between him and jail right now?)

We do not want any deal.

We made deals before with traitorous Republicans in leadership.

He is incapable of "going away". He's effing nuts and he lives for vengeance. His base would begin a rebellion on his behalf and he would be making deals with dictators all, for some nefarious purpose.

He and his family and his cohorts must be PUNISHED to the fullest extent of the law, rendered penniless and powerless and restricted from doing business and public life.

So how do you plan to keep him from raising up an army of deplorables to seek his revenge after you have let him go and he interprets that to mean he is exonerated and enabled?

He would relish that role of avenger.

There's always the Rosenberg remedy for treason.

This must be a 'teachable moment' in our history. People must pay for the crimes they commit while in office. This is the only way this corruption crap stops.

If we offer deals - it only provides them that leeway/that opening - that says - if I commit crimes - there's always an out.

We can't give them that leeway. This corruption must stop here. Trump and his minions need to be made an example of and they need to be the poster boys for 'the corruption stops now'.

but from what we've seen of the deals he's tried to make while president he'll probably end up handing Congress more evidence.

It's fantastic that she said "no." He started insulting her within minutes. She didn't rise to the bait.

Also, the deal has to involve Pence and Trump’s entire administration resigning at the same time.
