Apparently, former President (and current GOP presidential candidate) Donald Trump said that his poll (and fundraising) numbers have increased as a result of his being indicted for various supposed crimes.
I’m inclined to believe him. I don’t really want Trump to be president — I don’t really want anyone to be president, with the possible exceptions of Ron Paul or John Valera– but the way all these career politicians and bureaucrats are losing their minds at the very possibility of his being elected makes him by far the most interesting candidate out there.
The more he’s indicted on obviously political charges, the more I feel like voting for him. And if he’s convicted, that will probably clinch it.
My dream scenario is that Trump campaigns from prison in an orange jumpsuit with a campaign slogan like ‘If they can get me, they can get you.’ Then he wins and immediately pardons himself while still in prison. And then sets about dismantling the federal agencies that helped land him there.
