Trump carry on as a former president?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>He is more than likely going to be indicted for alleged criminal activity, although I am writing the word <em>&#8220;alleged&#8221;<\/em> only to be fair; I believe he is as guilty as they come.<\/p>\n<p>It could come from the Manhattan, N.Y. district attorney, who has empaneled a grand jury to look into the $130,000 hush money payment to Stormy Daniels, the porn star with whom he had a one-night fling. The indictment could come from Fulton County, Ga., DA Fani Willis, who has seated a grand jury to determine whether Trump committed a crime when he demanded that the Georgia secretary of state &#8220;find&#8221; enough votes to help him win the state&#8217;s electoral votes in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Or &#8230; the indictment could come from special counsel Jack Smith, who is probing Trump&#8217;s incitement of the insurrection on 1\/6 as well as the squirreling away of classified documents he took illegally from the White House upon leaving office.<\/p>\n<p>Presidents usually spend their post-presidential time planning for their libraries. They take up good causes, you know &#8230; pursuing world peace, helping women find their way, being role models for our youth, working with our wounded veterans.<\/p>\n<p>Trump is doing none of that. Zero. He is spending his waking hours fending off these prosecutors while seeking to run for POTUS a third time.<\/p>\n<p>There won&#8217;t be an unveiling at the White House of an official portrait of Trump and his wife. There will be no official White House ceremony marking his tenure as POTUS.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, the first line of his obituary will mention either his two impeachments or his indictments &#8230; or both incidents!<\/p>\n<p>The man&#8217;s legacy is shot to hell!
