And just concentrated on a 2024 run to "Reclaim America for Americans1" RAFA Or whatever some new slogan for his new campaign. And just spent his time making up more conspiracies about how the MSM had duped a slim majority to believe its lies etc etc...while lambasting Democratic policies....he may very well be ahead in the polls right now, or perhaps at least closer to 2024. With Fox News help, and the rest of the MSM who would have fallen back on their bothsiderism MO.

With the help of his father, he was always able to buy his way out of any inconvenience. But what he failed to realize that the eyes of the nation are on the POTUS in ways he never imagined - and the laws of the nation apply to him more than any other citizen. This was not his "business," this was the government of the United States. And he's now up to his nonexistent neck in trouble and he can't buy or talk his way out.
