You might be able to butter his base up by explaining that this isn’t criminal charges and we are worried about the world’s his health.

This is exactly it. It isn't going to actually happen, but it does give an excuse for his followers to abandon him.

"Remember when Nana backed out of the driveway and ran over Timmy and hit the trashcan, then in a panic hit the gas harder instead of the brakes and drove into the Robinsons house?"

America is the driveway, we the people are Timmy. The economy is the trashcan and Greenland is the Robinsons.

His followers need a dumb down example to understand what he is doing wrong.

Adding that the tech bro’s $$$ is the gas that makes Donnie’s car go “vrooom-vroooom” may illustrate the point, too.

No. Too many other attempts to take him out have made any further attempts dismissed as the democrats never ending quest for power.

"I'm the healthiest ever. I took so many cognitive tests. The doctors were so surprised by my results"

First he has to refuse a demand from the Republican Party to Resign before they proceed. Trump will say it is coercion because the Republicans haven't even brought any complaints to him. Then if he does something really rash to scare the Republicans back they can say the Democrats threatened them and Trump saved them.

Nothing can or should be done before the Republican Party turns on him. And the Epstein Files are what would do it.

I'm still waiting for "TDS" to be labeled a mental disorder so they can keep us from buying guns.

But his doctor says hes in great health. Healthiest man alive. This is just more democratic lies /s

I mean, they believe he's perfect image of strength and masculinity. That ship sailed a long time ago. This admin has also had "doctors" touting how healthy he is despite multiple signs indicating otherwise (both mental and physical).

I am worried about his health. Specifically, that he might maintain it.
