America and it's litigation culture, what a backwards country it's become and it will be more so under Biden. :rolleyes:

The Trump campaign is on a bad run in court I expect them to settle out of court rather than face more scathing remarks from the independent judiciary.

There's a reason he isn't going.

Re: U.S Election 2020
 
There’s a lot of interesting debate on the merits of 25th Amendment vs impeachment floating around. I doubt either will happen, certainly not reach a conclusion before he leaves office.

25th Amendment if Trump gets wind of it he can fire the Cabinet members who would vote against, and it’d only take one loyal to Trump (he appointed them after all) for him to know. As it stands, the Cabinet can arguably stop him from acting as he gets increasingly unhinged and monitor the situation for now. If they got sacked they’re suddenly out of some of the decision making processes or chain of command.

Impeachment would almost certainly take too long but could in theory stop him running for public office but unlikely to conclude before January 20th.

If impeached, he could be disqualified from holding Federal Office (permanently), which only requires a simple majority, not 2/3rds.

Could put a snag in his fund-raising efforts...

It was also rumoured he would be away in Scotland playing golf but the First Minister has said that Covid would prevent a leisure trip.

Earlier in the week, citing a source at the Prestwick airport in southwest Scotland, the Sunday Post reported that there was a booking for an American military Boeing 757 plane on January 19, the day before Biden’s inauguration.

While a special version of the larger Boeing 747 is used for Presidential flights under the call sign Air Force One, he has on occasions flown on the smaller jet. The Trump Turnberry resort, however, is located in a region that is under Tier 4 Covid-19 lockdown, the harshest tier, which bans all inward and outward travel. Trump is expected to skip Biden’s inauguration which would be a major departure from presidential norms.

Articles of Impeachment have already been drafted.

Trying to remove Trump from office could be the spark that ignites the fire, my advice would be calm down and wait it out and keep Biden off the TV cos he aint helping.

Whats the point in trying to remove him now :confused:

He's going to be gone is less than 2 weeks anyway
