Is that what the 6 Democrats that he threatened believed? That he is about to do something desperate?
And that is why he was so pissed that they directly challenged his plans to use the military? He did not need someone telling "his" military that they did not need to follow "illegal" orders.
More than any other time, he seems to have gone completely off the rails. He was forced to sign the release of the Epstein files, otherwise his veto would have been over-ridden, and he would have looked very weak. And nothing could be worse than looking weak.
Desperate people do desperate acts. The six Democrats know that.
We are living in a very dangerous moment with a madman at the helm.
Some are wondering, what will he do next?
