Trump will never resign. I’m convinced he fully believes his own bullshit and would do everything he can to cling to power. Assuming he makes it to January 2029, I fully expect some sort of tantrum as he tries to hang onto power.
But the idea of the GOP waiting until August and then dragging him behind the woodshed is an interesting thought. They get Vance to end the Iran War and look like a responsible adult after the toddler Trump and maybe ameliorate any blue wave a bit.
A full pardon for past and future crimes from JD would do it.
If trump like either of his sons he’d want to hand it to them, but JD is the only one that could offer an immediate pardon.
JD keeps him around as a figure head, and can run off trumps image.
It’s a very likely scenario, don’t forget Trump’s brain is mush, if his handlers think it can save the midterms they’ll gaslight him into doing it
Trump loves the attention too much. He has repeatedly lied about crowd sizes of some of his events. Anyone who disagrees with him, he hates. Anyone who is nice to him or gives him a medal, he loves. No way he willingly steps away from the limelight and attention of the presidency.
He’s still very easily manipulated…
And I can’t stress enough how much he wants a Hunter Biden esque “any and all crimes past and future” pardon.
