It’s been interesting

What an interesting week it has been. You have retired General Michael Flynn tweeting and taking out a full page ad in the Washington Times that the president should suspend the Constitution and declare martial law to rerun the election. Can you say Coup d’État.

You also have the president making a 46-minute rambling speech that made no sense at all, where he continues to insist the election was a fraud. This speech came complete with fancy-mancy charts. The president then goes on to say; “hopefully” the country’s highest court get involved and maybe you’ll have a revote, but I don’t think that’s appropriate. When those votes are corrupt, when they’re irregular, when they get caught, they’re terminated, and I very easily win.”

Next you have Attorney General William Barr declaring “the US Justice Department has uncovered no evidence of widespread voter fraud that could change the outcome of the 2020 election.” This contradicts the concerted effort by his boss, to subvert the results of last month’s voting and trying to block Joe Biden from taking his rightful place in the White House as president of the United States of America. I am sure this did not sit well with Trump who after all demands 100% loyalty from every citizen in the US.

Lastly we have the issue of preemptive pardons for his family and some of his staff. I can only assume the preemptive pardon presumes guilt has been identified by the president. As long as we are speaking of pardons, what about the Department of Justice investigation of presidential pardons for money. Talk about bribery.

My crystal ball is saying the president will pardon Vice President Mike Pence and then resign, thus allowing President Pence to grant Donald Trump a presidential pardon for all of his sins.
