I had no doubt that TSF wouldn't leave the WH if his scheme to get Congress to stop counting the votes, having Pence disqualify Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania, and then throwing the election to Congress. If you have to use violence to extend your presidential lease, you're probably not leaving in four years.

Jokes are supposed to be funny. None of this is funny.

Anyway you slice it, Trump is telling us something with his jokes.
