Donald J. Trump
If nominated, Trump will lose spectacularly by the most significant margin in U.S. history. Trump will again call the election rigged and will promote the big lie 2.0, but it will fall flat.
Trump will be convicted in most of his legal cases. He will be found guilty on most but not all charges, which I believe prosecutors expect.
Trump will be sentenced to many years in prison and fined millions. He will probably be allowed to serve most of his time in home confinement but in a location as directed by a judge under a long list of strict conditions. These conditions will include zero access to social media, the press, or anyone not permitted.
While in confinement, Trump will gain lots of weight. This will bring about severe health conditions. Mentally, Trump will slip further into a psychotic state. Trump will continue to self-destruct and die.
Publicly, Trump will quickly fade away in disgrace.
Trump’s Children
Most will suffer a similar but lesser legal fate as their father. Ivanka will probably come out against her father and, in doing so, receive a much lighter sentence.
MAGA Republicans in Congress
Hardcore Trump loyalists like Kevin McCarthy, Lindsey Graham, Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, Jim Jordan, and all the rest will either be voted out of office or will not seek reelection, knowing they have no chance of winning.
They will return to their private lives, losing their reputations, respect, and dignity. Some will attempt to regain the limelight but will fail miserably. All attempts to start or restart a business or gain meaningful employment will fail or have minimal success. Most, if not all, will hide or self-destruct.
Trump Supporters
Most will soon realize that Donald J. Trump is a liar, conman, and criminal. This realization will probably cause them pain, guilt, and anger. Some will self-destruct to varying degrees.
The most courageous among them will face the truth and work to prevent such a despicable person from ever being elected to any office. This will likely start by voting Republicans out of all state and federal offices across the United States.
A tiny few will continue to believe Trump’s lies and support him. Their communities and families will shun these individuals. Many will self-destruct.
Extreme Right News Media
Lies and conspiracies filled “news” outlets like Fox News, News Max, Info Wars, and all the others will either go bankrupt or lose most of their viewers.
Many of their well-known hosts will be fired and lose their reputations, respect, and dignity. Most will hide or self-destruct.
***
This will be Trump’s legacy — carnage, pain, and destruction.
