I fully expect that Trump would fake his own death before accepting defeat in the election or resigning. That's probably the only way he'll be able to get out of facing legal problems for the rest of his life, plus if he can pin the death on the right person it could make him into a martyr amongst his followers. Of course, being the stable genius he is, he'd manage to somehow pull this off only to be spotted two days later in a flimsy disguise at one of his golf courses.

Kellyanne Conway’s recent attack on Democratic presidential candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden just received a makeover that turns it back on President Donald Trump.
Conway, who is counselor to the president, said Biden had made “a lot of really creepy statements” and some of those statements “make me very uncomfortable.”
A new video from the progressive PAC MeidasTouch combined her comments with footage of some of Trump’s creepier moments:

Yup, makes you wonder, he is definitely not typical. "Creepy" is the least of words to describe Donald.

President Donald Trump was "bored" with the pandemic, seeing it — an average of 850 deaths, each day, since February — as a distraction from all of the "wins," from a new trade deal to a soaring stock market, he wishes he could campaign on instead.
But then senior advisers tried a new approach: they told the president that the coronavirus wasn't just killing liberals in blue states, but hurting Republicans and could spread in swing states.
"Our people." That's the term one senior Trump administration official used in an interview with The Washington Post. On Monday, the paper reported that senior advisers to the president had begun providing him "maps and data showing spikes in coronavirus cases among 'our people' in Republican states."
It worked, The Post reported, the tactic seemed "to resonate" with the president, who then "hewed closely to pre-scripted remarks" in subsequent news briefings. While the messaging on face coverings remained incoherent — they're not without their own problems, Trump claimed — the president was allowing himself to be seen with a mask on, heeding the urging of Republicans battling the coronavirus in their home states

As Dr. Anthony Fauci prepared to throw out the first pitch of MLB’s season, President Donald Trump broke some baseball news of his own.
Trump announced in the middle of a COVID-19 press briefing last Thursday that he had been invited to throw out the first pitch at a New York Yankees game. He would do so on Aug. 15, a date that saw the rival Boston Red Sox visiting Yankees Stadium.
It turns out that announcement was news to the Yankees, according to a New York Times report published Monday.
Report: Trump’s announcement ‘surprised’ Yankees From Monday’s Times report:
“There was one problem: Mr. Trump had not actually been invited on that day by the Yankees, according to one person with knowledge of Mr. Trump’s schedule. His announcement surprised both Yankees officials and the White House staff.”

In a remarkable move by a sitting president, President Donald Trump for the first time Thursday morning suggested delaying the presidential election over his persistent false attacks that mail-in voting would lead to the "most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history."
"With Universal Mail-In Voting (not Absentee Voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history. It will be a great embarrassment to the USA. Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote???" the tweet reads.

President Donald Trump has installed a nominee for a top Pentagon job in a senior Department of Defense post on a temporary basis after lawmakers abruptly canceled his confirmation hearing last week amid lingering questions about his fitness for the role.
Retired Army Brig. Gen. Anthony Tata, a novelist, former state government official and Fox News regular, withdrew Sunday from consideration to be undersecretary of defense for policy, a position that requires Senate confirmation, the Pentagon said in a statement emailed to POLITICO Sunday.
Instead, he has been designated as the official "performing the duties of" the deputy undersecretary of defense policy.
Since Trump announced his intent to nominate Tata earlier this year, the former Army general has been widely criticized for tweets calling former President Barack Obama a "terrorist leader" and referring to Islam as the "most oppressive violent religion I know of," among other controversial statements.
Tata later said he regretted the now-deleted tweets.
His nomination to be undersecretary of defense for policy, the department's number three official, was upended Thursday when the Senate Armed Services Committee canceled his confirmation hearing minutes before it was scheduled to begin.
Chair Sen. Jim Inhofe said lawmakers didn't have enough information about Tata to consider him for the position, while Sen. Jack Reed of Rhode Island, the committee's top Democrat, said that "members on both sides of the aisle have raised serious questions about this nominee."

Attorneys for Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance argued Monday that President Donald Trump should be forced to comply with a subpoena for his tax documents — and suggested that his company was under investigation for alleged insurance and bank fraud.
The disclosure in a federal court filing adds a new dimension to the battle over the president’s financial records.
Vance’s office subpoenaed Trump’s accounting firm, Mazars USA, in 2019 as part of an investigation into the Trump Organization about payments made to two women who have alleged affairs with the president, which he has denied. But the latest filing suggests Vance’s probe extends beyond the hush-money payments.
