Baitball Blogger (27,636 posts)The Day Trump is Forced to Step Down.I don't think there was a combined jovial outburst the day Nixon was forced out, but I expect people to run out of their houses screaming for joy the day that Trump realizes it's time to take the most face saving exit strategy that Mueller allows him. And I base this on a personal experience. I once worked for company that owned three floors of a building in downtown Orlando. There were no real walls on our floor, except for cubicles on three corners for the managers. The elevators and stairs where in the center and the desks, many, many desks, were faced away from the windows. The tough economic times of the 80s played out on that floor. People survived the best way they knew how, and that sometimes meant bringing out the worst in some people. In particular, one female manager who was just down right mean. She would pit people against each other and if you were targeted, you were going to have a rough time at work. She would find every opportunity to ridicule you publicly. For those she had in her sights, the only thing that saved them were benign male managers who seemed to understand what was going on. They couldn't stop her, but they tried to step in and move people around to keep them out of her way. I left the company in the mid-eighties for my own reasons and heard updates from friends over the following years. The company was cutting employment rolls. It became so systematic that home office sent representatives who took residence in a hotel across the street. One by one, people were being called across the street and would return in tears, fired. Most of the ones who were let go were clerical. But one day the female manager was called down. No one knew why, for sure. Was she there to help them cull the workers? But, someone who was in the vicinity of the meeting in the hotel heard what went down and called ahead to let everyone know what had happened. Once it made it to the floor, the word spread and you could hear the reaction like a noise wave as it spread around desk by desk around the floor. There were cheers, cries of joy and relief. No one held back. Not even the fact that the woman's husband worked on that same floor kept them from withholding their emotional outbursts. And I predict, that the day that Trump leaves office, it will be like that.

... Pence will take over. Aren't they scared he will send "the gays" to concentration camps?
