He's been told you can delay elections during a war, so he wants a war. Venezuela or somewhere else, that's my guess. Or resignation.

If what we hope will happen ever happens, we'll watch as many, many people in the world of politics, overnight, go on to pretend they were always against what preceded it. This era has been a highly effective acid test for character. Take notes now, so that you don't forget in the future.

He could just admit all the paedophilia and it wouldn't make a blind bit of difference to 80% of his supporters. Evangelicals will say "he confessed his sins, JAYsus forgives him!" Nobody else will change their minds about support. Excuses will flow. FOX will say "it was a different time."
