^ Perhaps I owe Anteater an apology. His method works better than I first thought:-

The Trump University is a scam to defraud gullible Americans.
The Trump Foundation is a scam to defraud gullible Americans.
The Trump Presidency is a scam to defraud gullible Americans.

Yes, I also have a feeling that Trump will escape prison. Will there be a new Gerald Ford who pardons all his misdeeds I wonder?

Does he care about headlines? Pretty often, I think. He was furious about the bad press when he couldn't be bothered to honour those soldiers in France and Arlington. Also, the meeting with Kim Jung Un was just a photo op, a headline and a news cycle. We're now back to the way things have been for decades, with NKorea advancing their nuclear program. Trump got his headline and has now lost interest.
