On the Quora website, Kelly Schweighsr from Philadelphia replied to the question “does Donald Trump worry about impeachment?” THE HOBBLEDEHOY think her answer was awesome:
“I think that Trump worries a great deal about impeachment, but less about the political ramifications than the potential criminal prosecution. I believe that Trump only wants to stay in office because he believes it gives him blanket immunity and allows him to enrich himself at tax-payer expense.
If his tax returns become public he may have to pay back taxes and fines, or it may be revealed that he committed bank fraud which could send him to prison and result in a hefty fine. Trump’s finances have always been dodgy, He has never been as wealthy as he has claimed to be. He presidency has actually harmed his brand and would be costing him money if he weren’t charging the Secret Service full rack rate to protect him (and getting foreign governments to book rooms at his hotels but not stay in them).
He accuses Hillary of cheating because he cheated. He accuses everyone of treason because he knows he is breaking laws he swore to uphold.
Trump has always projected what he is doing or planning on doing on to other people. He accuses Hunter Biden of profiting from Joe Biden’s position because his children, Don Jr., Eric and Ivanka (and Jared) are profiting from his presidency. He accuses Hillary of cheating because he cheated. He accuses everyone of treason because he knows he is breaking laws he swore to uphold.
The Presidency is stressful. Donald Trump has never had to manage so many people – his business only employed a few dozen people directly. He doesn’t understand how politics works, the duties and responsibilities of the office or the limits of his power – and that frustrates him. While he loves the attention, particularly that of the adoring crowds at his rallies, he hates the way the media covers him. Trump is used to controlling the message – either through cozy arrangements with the National Enquirer, or by distracting the press with some new outrage. But he has lost that control and he is flailing as a result.
Trump is 73 years old, he is obese, his health is failing, his diet is crap and he doesn’t exercise. He is showing signs of cognitive decline – and his father suffered from dementia, so Trump may be aware that his mind is going. Now pile on all the investigations, the impeachment inquiry, the disaster in Syria and it becomes obvious that he is under more mental stress than he has ever been in his life.
I believe that Trump is worried about the almost inevitable impeachment – but that he is more worried that he will be exposed before the world for what he is and what he has done – and the idea that he might be revealed as a con-man, a cheat, a liar, a thief, a money launderer – or even worse, a poor man who colluded with Vladimir Putin is an effort to make millions and an incompetent manager – terrifies him.
Like a cornered rat, Trump is fighting for his very life – and I believe that he will become much less rational and much more dangerous as the walls close in.”
