To: I believe the 2nd American Civil war is inevitable
Me: Me too. I don’t live anywhere in or near America, so it will be an interesting time to watch how things go down – hopefully with your exchange rate, so that our exchange rate improves significantly against the American Dollar – bonus there.
But realistically, it comes down to the armed forces and where their loyalty lays, to President Biden and the American people (who pay their wages) or the Trumpites (who don’t) and if they don’t have the Army, Airforce, or Navy, in bed with them, then I don’t see how any insurrection is going to go anywhere, when they get modern technology and the troops committed to Biden, standing up to them, including The National Guard – no future there at all!!
He who pays the piper calls the tune and Biden is paying the piper for the next 4 years, while Trump is at the pointy end of a rather interesting impeachment which could easily end up with him being imprisoned and all of his wealth and goodies taken away from him under the “Profit From Criminal Activity Laws” and his family too, so that if he or they, are ever released, they won’t have anything to come out too, a bit like Al Capone.
I still think Trump was running a Pyramid Scheme and he was on top of the pyramid bathing and enjoying the luxury he provided himself with and although he has raised millions, in the weeks before he leaves office, he still has to pay out loans of about $400 Million which fall due and I doubt if any lending institution would lend him anything, now he has painted himself into a corner, so it will be interesting if his demise is upon him, from the 20th January onwards.
I expect the knives are out for him and he has upset too many powerful people in Washington and politics, to be able to walk away from this with a clean skin, irrespective of if he pardons himself, or not.
