Trump declares that it would be a CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS if he were to be elected president. Or at least that's what he said in 2016. Roll tape:

Trump said that because Clinton might be found guilty of a felony, it would be crazy if she were elected President. It would grind the government to a halt.... He goes on to assert that such a circumstance would make it IMPOSSIBLE for the president to govern.
Well Mr. Trump is not just charged with felony but CONVICTED of felony on 34 counts.
How do the Trump loyalists reconcile the words from his mouth with his current predicament?
My prediction: deafening SILENCE or at best, cries of conspiracy.

You're right about that. Obviously a President charged, much less convicted of felonies would be unsuitable for the office...but Trump is innocent and the Judge was biased and the Jury was rigged and, and and🙄
@Pikachu I was trying really hard not to bring up divinity and to minimize the cult-like aspects of Trumpism, because, you know, some don't really believe in the man, as much as they think they can benefit from his "honest" transactional self interest for their own self interest.
Everybody tends to complain about the idiots and the religious zealots, but I think the more significant Trumpists are the ones with money, means, and even education, who see what's going on, and want to profit from it like he does.
Those folks are less likely to be bothered by hypocrisy, of course, being less naive, and maybe even consciously emulating it as they, like Trump, strive to make or keep their money at the expense of others. Personally, I think they're the ugly side of America, but they, the real millionaires, as well as the frustrated millionaires are Americans, and with Citizens United, they're probably the ones more important for the future.
Good point. There are the MAGA cultists...and then there are the upper class that simply back Trump because they reckon it will benefit them. But i suppose no one has ever accused the 1% of being ethical.
