There are more and more articles on a variety of sites putting forward the idea of the Idiot just up and walking away from his re-election. The reasoning in most of these pieces is that, at some point, he will see how badly he's going to get clobbered and will want to spare himself from that deep embarrassment. If we were dealing with a conventionally sane and intelligent person--one whose every decision was not ruled by his craving for adulation and praise--I might think that his fleeing the situation was plausible. For some reason the rock tune by Lynyrd Skynyrd "Gimme Three Steps" comes to mind, particularly the line: "Hey fat fellah with the hair colored yellah, whatchu tryin' to prove?" And, a little further on: "You could hear me screamin' a mile away as I was headed out for the door."
But, you and I both know that this fat fellah with hair colored yellah isn't going to do that, right? Over the last three plus years, we have seen a very consistent pattern emerge: Donny does what will further his sense of personal Grandeur while ignoring anything that might impinge on that. Or, if he doesn't just look away, more likely, he attacks the offending person or idea. A normal, sane person considers all the aspects of a particular situation, and then makes a decision on how to approach it based on what seems to have the best chance for accomplishing the task at hand. Not Donny. Oh no.
His approach is to brood and skulk, then launch a twitter attack that is full of lies, obfuscation and, in almost every instance, a stream of hateful invective aimed at his perceived wrong-doers.
With even the slimmest of chances that he will find a way to turn things around, and in the hope that the GOPs cheating methods are once again effective enough to help him steal the election, he will remain in the race. It is reminiscent of the tale about how to catch a monkey: you put a grape or nut in a hollowed out gourd, with a hole that is sized so that the monkey can get his hand in, but cannot get his fist, clutching the grape, out. And, that monkey will refuse to let go of his prize even when it means that he's going to be captured. So, the story goes in India, anyway.
Well, that's our Donny Boy. He's got his eyes on a very big prize that he has not so subtly alluded to for the last three years: he could become president for life, i.e. be like his buddy Vladimir, and have so much power that we cannot get rid of him via any legitimate democratic means. He wants to be the Emperor of us all. When he looks skyward and declares to the press that, "I'm the chosen One." Or when he slyly alludes to Putin, Xi, Erdogan, Kim Jong-un, as leaders who have it all going.....have no doubt that he is doing so as a way of hinting to at least his knuckle-draggers that, "Hey, why not me as President for Life?" Never mind that we already....at least a helluva lot of us....know the Emperor is buck-ass naked....an indication of his being a morally bankrupt asshole who likes to inflict pain, whether it be on immigrant children in cages, or by blowing off a pandemic in the making, that has now killed over 130,000 Americans, many of then who could have survived if the Idiot had stepped-up and been a leader instead of being his usual asshole self and deflecting all responsibility....hell, for ANYTHING. He long ago failed to get us to see the 'magic underwear' that he's so fond of boasting about. All I see when I look at him most of the time....is an obese and very florid pink HOG.
There's another rock tune, this one from Paul Simon, off of his album, "You're the One". It's title is "Pigs, Sheep and Wolves", give it a listen and see if you don't agree that it's about the Idiot. Towards the last part of the tune, there are some lines that seem almost perfect for describing him.
Big and fat
Pig's supposed to look like that
Yeah, this is hilarious
Oh what a great time
I'm the pig who committed
The perfect crime
Hahahaha
All around the world
Japan and Scandinavia
Candle light vigils
Protestin' behaviors
It's animal behavior
It's animal behavior
It's pigs, sheep and wolves.
