We should all be proud, that even though Trump's party is turning a blind eye to all of his self serving games, the truth still prevails and will take them all down. I think I am going to start wearing a blue hat that reads:

Thank You For Keeping America Great !

Sit back and enjoy the show, things are about to get VERY interesting in our country !!
Here's the issue:

More and more it looks like trump would be arrested and charged after leaving the white house.
What does he do to stay in it past 4 or 8 years?

From the things Trump has already been saying publicly, Rudy better stay away from the Bus Station. Trump is already starting to distance himself from Rudy. Next it will be " Rudy, Rudy ?? I think I remember meeting that guy one time, but I meet so many people it is hard for me to remember them all !"

Trump is one piece of work !

Say what you will, those are the facts.

At a minimum, Giuliani appears to have been played by the Ukrainians. Then used Presidential power in ways many within State found inappropriate topped off by Trump himself crossing a line in the Zelensky phone call.

Giuliani also dragged in dirty money then put his 'associates' repeatedly in the same place as the Trump family - WH dinner with POTUS, power breakfast with Don Jr. What Trump thought that was about is a question. These guys gave money sure, but with them also 'helping' Giuliani with the 2016 elections and the Bidens there is a strong possibility that the dinner conversation consisted of more than Trump saying "Gee, thanks guys for the dough."

Also, you have a Trump-associated lobbying firm cutting checks to Parnas.

Trump is in desperation/ survival mode right now, he sees the handwriting on the wall. But we have to remember, he is not all that bright, and probably thinks he can do something to divert attention and make all of this go away.

If he was smart (yeah, THAT might happen ! ) he would cut his losses now, go to Pelosi, and make a deal that would let him quietly leave, give him immunity from future charges, give his family immunity, and let Pence take over and finish out his term. That would be a win-win for the country and save us a lot of time, trouble, and money.

But he isn't smart enough to do that, nor will his over inflated ego allow it, so he will be kicking and screaming as they close the plane door on his last day in DC. Plus, the GOP knows Pence would not win in 2020, so they need to keep this corruption going to keep the GOP in power.

You are certainly free to blow holes in the explanation if you can.

Please show us exactly what does not make sense, I am all ears.

Personally, I am not convinced that Giuliani is the mastermind of this whole thing, I think that more likely he has been an unsuspecting tool at the service of someone else.

This resembles the Soprano's more than it does a Presidency.
The stunning thing is his supporters won't even notice. It's always the Dems' fault, lol. Those damn Dems for discovering that I'm corrupt, says Trump.
