What Donald Trump Fears Most – A potential reckoning that he has spent a lifetime eluding could be coming.

38 comments

1. He spent a lifetime committing crimes and not being held accountable for them.

2. I blame Hunter Biden’s huge penis.

3. Could be. Maybe. Soon. We got him this time.

4. Not sure his life-experiences have allowed Trump to have developed any sense of ‘fear’ around accountability or repercussions. He’s spent a lifetime committing crimes and raping women and the only ‘reckoning’ he’s faced so far is to become President of the United States and develop a cult following.

5. You know when Wile E. Coyote runs off a cliff and he keeps going for a while, but he hasn’t looked down and fallen yet? That’s Donald Trump for the past 40 years

6. Send this motherfucker to Rikers and then upstate, but he probably won’t survive a week in Rikers.

7. What he fears most is people not paying attention to him

8. May it be a complete Wreckoning!

9. You could have died fat, rich, popular, and on Twitter in peace for the rest of your life if you hadn’t run for president. Hell, you could have done that too if you hadn’t gotten greedy and listened to your lawyers.

   [in Trump voice]
   Sad. Very sad.

10. I have read this exact same articles for at least the last 5 years.

11. It’s appropriate. His ambition drove in the end to seek the highest office at any cost, even committing more crimes. It’s not like magically everyone suddenly wants to get an old man out of nowhere. He compounded his problems progressively as he kept failing morally and financially and engaging ever more crime to lust with greed for power and privilege. His prior failings should have humbled him to live a quiet retirement like the rest of us, but he of course thinks he is better than everyone, and he continued committing fraud to con his way to the top. Fuck him.

12. He should be in fear. I’m sure they have other charges waiting to file as well.

    His time IS coming, for a lifetime of being a complete douche.

13. That Fred was right all along. Donald is a loser.

14. He is likely soiling his diaper every day now.

15. I seriously doubt it. The rich can do anything they want in the US. They pick a fall guy. Trump is not the fall guy.

16. Getting sick of these “Trump’s finished now!” headlines, only to see nothing happen except his base becoming more emboldened. We’ve been seeing this since the Muller Report. No, actually, since the Access Hollywood recording.

17. There are so many stories about people who he literally ran out of business..ie: contractors who he refused to pay..men who were electricians and builders who did big jobs for him and took out loans to pay their staff until the jobs were finished and they were waiting for trump to pay them for a huge contract.. and he stiffed them..never paid them..a lot of little guys went bankrupt and out of business because of his shady business practices.. he DESERVES every single thing being thrown at him.. he doesn’t care about the people..what did he do for the goons from jan 6th who went to jail for his lies?? NOTHING.. he is proud of roe being overturned.. he doesn’t care about young women who have pregnancies that are not viable and they can’t get an abortion to save their lives..selfish lying asshole

18. Couldn’t happen to a better man, if it happens.

19. He fears being laughed at, ignored, and then forgotten. I would LOVE to see it happen, and then never see or hear of anything related to Trump ever again. The day can only come too soon.

20. At least this reckoning is happening early enough that he hasn’t done any serious damage to the US.

    Oh, wait.

    Our country is flawed.

21. I’ll believe it when I see it.

22. Good. May he continue to sleep poorly.

23. He’s losing his lifelong battle with karma ?

24. Yeah, like who falls asleep during a criminal trial? Most people are scared and full of anxiety. He just thinks he’s so slippery and slick. He can just get over on everyone and get out of everything.

25. And think. He could have avoided all of this and more by not being president. Think about that. Someone’s life could be better served by not serving your country. Just like all those giraffes he dodged.

26. Could. Might. Would.

    Surely *this time*

27. Please let it come.

28. I hope so. It’s precisely why I disagree with people who think the world will be better off if he dies. If he is going to face consequences, dying before he has to face them would feel like he won in the long run.

29. He hasn’t trashed the National Inquirer guy.

30. Yep. A lifetime of being a crook and the paradigm of sleaze and greed is hopefully finally catching up to him. And all it took was treason!

31. hahahhahaha lil piss boy

32. I can hardly wait.

33. Just come before November.

34. I love this for him

35. The ending to the article:

    The weariness and vulnerability captured in those courtroom images betray a growing recognition that he could wind up as the thing his old man most reviled.

    A convicted criminal?

    No, worse. A loser.

36. He easily could have eluded it forever if he hadn’t become president

37. >could

    Right onto the pile from the last few years.Guess not even the Atlantic is above pointless filler content when it comes to consequences that seem always around the corner.

    Like fusion power, but judicial.

38. From the article:

    “Yet, as Trump sits and watches the criminal trial he hoped to avoid unfold, he must know that a potential reckoning he has spent a lifetime eluding could be coming. He has been reduced to a criminal defendant in a courtroom where someone else has absolute power and the rules very definitely apply. The weariness and vulnerability captured in those courtroom images betray a growing recognition that he could wind up as the thing his old man most reviled.

    A convicted criminal?

    No, worse. A loser.”
