House minority leader met with Trump today, in a very public display, to signal that this ain't over yet.
Donald Trump is old, morbidly obese, and lives on a diet of cheeseburgers and fried chicken. I'm thinking the best thing that could happen would be for his excesses to catch up to him, if you know what I mean. The worst thing that could happen is for some nut job to hasten his demise, thus making him a martyr.

Starting right after he started challenging the election results, I started thinking that the chaos won't end as long as he's around. I fully expected that he'd spend the next 4 years holding rallies and continuing to claim that the election was stolen. In reality, he's probably going to take some time off (while his minions keep the crazy energy going).
But, I have a hard time believing that world leaders are sitting idly while they watch the repeat of a train wreck happen in slow motion. I'm talking about allies, not enemies, who realize that the world is a safer place without him. I'm sure the MI-6 can figure something out (as can the CIA).
I don't think Trump as a martyr is more dangerous...I'm not sure who could pick up the mantle of lunacy from him and have people follow as fervently. Ron DeSantis? No. Marjorie Taylor Green? Oh, I really hope not.
