He knows what's coming. He knows what he's done and he knows Mueller will fully figure it out. He has no real vehicle that will truly save him, so he is going with the only thing he has left: to foment violence by his supporters and hope that the violence will save his rear end.
It won't. But if he doesn't make that last ditch effort, it would mean in effect that he is giving up and accepting prison. Yeah.....staying out of prison is more important to him than preventing wide spread violence.
He needs his followers to not believe the FBI, the intelligence community, the DOJ, the FBI, and the press......and he has been working nonstop on that for many months. If his followers end up not believing any of those entities, then they would be susceptible to being whipped up to take to the streets to save Trump.
What the press and commentators don't seem to know, or won't say, is that Trump's support of the vermin will in the final analysis have no real effect on how his presidency will end. The reason? His statements will be of no consequence to his detractors when the serious charges to be made by Mueller and the NY AG completely eclipse those statements. Irrespective of the statements, the serious charges alone will end all of his support.....except for that of the true deplorables.
Trump's conduct of the last few days will eventually mean nothing in the grand scheme of things. All those he is losing due to his remarks will be lost eventually when the facts come out.
Well, actually, looking at it in reverse, his statements would actually have one big effect: They would be a key element of Trump's eventual effort to have his sick followers try to revolt to keep him in office.

(4,858 posts)I've been worried about this from the start--Trump deliberately whipping up his supporters in an attempt to save his neck. We're in *very* dangerous territory. He has no conscience or concern about anybody else...especially not his rabble, who are totally expendable to him...
