    They know he’s disintegrating, and likely only has a few months before he’s rendered incapable of functioning. The contractor was a political crony of Trump’s who has little to no influence within the Project 2025 framework, and the blatant injustice of the trial was eroding confidence in the DOJ - which Project 2025 needs to push it’s agenda.

    Pirro will take Trump’s heat for a bit until he forgets about it, and then proceed to implement the rest of Project 2025’s goals like a good little soldier. The contractor was an easy sacrifice, and Trump cares more about the public embarrassment than bailing out a crony who made him look a fool on the national stage.

    Trump’s loyalists aren’t turning on him. They’re waiting out his dementia while they implement the Project 2025 agenda, and making sure he doesn’t completely torch the place before the new boss has a chance to take over.

        I didn’t mean to imply that the dementia is new, it’s just too evident to hide to even the most dedicated of his followers at this point, and this particular case made it very apparent. The Project 2025 bigwigs just want to get the case out of the news cycle because there’s no positive way to spin it, and the more attention Trump gives it, the more damage it does to their plans.

        Once its out of the news cycle, he’ll forget about it, unless they need another distraction from the Epstein files and decide to remind him.

      I really want to believe you, but I’ve been hearing people say “he’s only got a few more months to live” for like two years now. The fat fuck has access to the best healthcare in the world, and the hateful and spiteful seem to live longer than most. :/
