Why don't we just buy him out? Quid Pro Quo

I'm just being silly here. But a funny thought occurred to me this morning. What if Trump were offered $10-Billion to resign? I'll bet he would take it. Of course that would mean skirting justice, which I don't want. But if he were guaranteed cash andf no jail time, I'll bet he would jump at the chance.

Is it about money or ego? I would lean towards ego so I'm not sure the idea would work based upon what he most wants.

Make a deal with him and then stiff him like he stiffs everyone else.

they want. If Pootie decides he wants Princess to give him a massage she'll be on the next plane.
