Does anyone else log into DU every day and go straight to Latest Breaking News hoping that something terrible has happened to 45?
Or is it just me?

(16,867 posts)If all goes well in November and January, I hope I'll mostly forget about the Con. Such a toxic monster shouldn't occupy anybody's thoughts that much. I want him to pay for what he's done, but I don't really want to hear much about it. A good three says of celebrating would be nice, followed by a long stretch of boring life.

(51,674 posts)it happens when we are away from any media. I have been hoping to hear he has dropped dead (and I don't care under what circumstances either) since Nov 2016. I assumed some one would have tried to kill him by now since he has SO MANY enemies...no such luck. I still keep hoping though.

(6,154 posts)Just as we don't know how many attempts there were on Obama's life (I'm sure it was in the hundreds), we will never be told how many attempts are made on Trump. It just isn't discussed. The Secret Service "handles" it.

(51,674 posts)in these matters, like a "Goodfella" type person who knows how to do it right. Maybe amateurs have tried it but no professionals. Putin has the know-how but he wouldn't do it (unfortunately),not yet anyway.

(6,133 posts)He wont be out until we vote him out by a really large margin. I believe that he will do his Trump stuff to avoid leaving the White House.
And then John Roberts will swear in Biden, so that Secret Service number one mission will be protecting Biden, and Trump is forced out of the White House.

(16,616 posts)this very reason. But it's a TERRIBLE and unhealthy habit. I don't advise others do it.
Nothing against MSNBC, but they run reruns instead of live breaking news at night.
