Here's a "what if" regarding the stolen classified documents:

[Novara]

What if the orange fuck was going to use them to buy Russia's interference in the 2024 election?

What if thought he didn't win 2020 because Russia was pretty hands-off compared to 2016, and he thought classified documents were the perfect currency to get Russia to install him in the White House again?

And now that the FBI has the documents back, he no longer has that bargaining chip?

Or did he make copies which he can still use?

The pundits keep saying he's going to declare his candidacy any minute now, yet he hasn't done it. Maybe now he doesn't have the means to buy this election?





Okay .... tinfoil hat off.

[liberal N proud]

1. It's all plausible

[Turbineguy]

2. Russia does not need to be bought off to help him.

They know he will fuck things up.

[Meadowoak]

3. I believe Russia was pretty hands on in 2020 also. Theres

Just more democrats than repubes. If we GOTV.

[Novara]

7. Don't forget absentee paper ballots due to the pandemic

It's hard to ratfuck those.

[sop]

4. When it comes to Trump, pretty much anything is possible.

[Irish_Dem]

5. It is not tinfoil hat to speculate what crimes Trump committed past, present or future.

We would be foolish, naive and remiss not to do so.

It is mandatory if we wish to preserve our lives and the future of our country.

Trump is a ruthless narcissistic sociopath with a well documented life of crime.
And we know he was on a four year crime spree while in the WH.

We are still trying to figure out how bad it was and how much damage.

[Novara]

6. Or he could have thought to use this material to bribe another country to help him win

But Russia may be better equipped than anybody else. Remember, they did breach 39 states' electoral databases already.

[Tickle]

8. What IF

we all wait for the facts to come out. Just a thought since people are all over the place on this orange idiot. Doesn't matter if I go to twitter DU and even facebook. Everything is trump trump trump it's nauseating!!!!!!!!!!!

Honestly is it me? I can take it. just tell me

[msfiddlestix]

16. Yes, we should all wait for all the facts to come out some around the year 2525

the time capsules containing the facts should be very interesting.

[unblock]

9. He had then over a year. Very likely he already sold access or copies.

To the saudis at least, if not putin and others

[tinrobot]

10. True. Information has a shelf life.

Old information is usually less valuable than recent information.

For example, a list of CIA agents from last year is more valuable than one from 5-10 years ago.

[JustAnotherGen]

11. Eh?

Nothing will stop if he declares his candidacy.

[Novara]

13. No, it won't stop the investigations.

But why hasn't he done it yet?

Is it because he isn't sure he'd win if he can't sell America's secrets in order to get help getting elected?

Anyway, I'm getting too far into the weeds on this little conspiracy theory. It was just a thought.

[scipan]

14. There's the fact that RNC will stop paying

his legal bills if he declares.

I don't think your idea is implausible.

But I think it would be to support him in the primary. They will probably do whatever they can for him in the general regardless.

[Novara]

15. I'm not convinced that wasn't an empty threat

I don't believe anything republicans say.

[msfiddlestix]

17. That's an interesting bit of news I hadn't read before now.

hmm.

[brush]

12. Putin's 2016 plan of helping to install trump into the WH...

worked perfectly. He has bought nothing but chaos, confusion, division and degradation of our institutions and democracy. It's just was Putin was after.

A second trump term with republicans havingt Congressional majorities would complete the destruction of our democracy and then nation would descend into a fascistic dystopia subservient to Putin/Russia, as trump is.
