Do you think a deal should be done with Trump - he encourages a peaceful transition in exchange

[Doodley]

for going easy on his crimes?

EDIT

I see a lot of "no" replies.

Specifically, I'm think of the damage Trump can do before he leaves, in particular inciting civil unrest.

Okay, how about if he was told something along the lines of: "These are all the charges you will face. However, if you want us to play nice, you need to do the same." Then, when Trump leaves office, he is still arrested.

[we can do it]

1. N O

[Vivienne235729]

2. HELL NO.

[demosincebirth]

3. No!!

[CincyDem]

4. Oh hell no. n/t

[struggle4progress]

5. A peaceful transition of power isn't a bargaining chip in America

[Loge23]

6. Absolutely not!

He should be arrested, immediately, for sedition.

[soothsayer]

7. Ha, no effing way

[GaYellowDawg]

8. Absolutely not.

He won’t be able to stop the transfer of power, so fuck him.

[NCjack]

9. Take the death penalty off the table in exchange for life in prison.

[Lokee11]

10. H to the

E double LL

NO!

FDT!

[Ms. Toad]

11. Only if it gets him and Pence out of the White House

long before January 20.

Avoiding the chaos of the upcoming period would be almost priceless.

[Doodley]

37. Thank you. Well said. We must avoid civil unrest and a Trump led movement away from a democratically

elected Joe Biden.

[enid602]

12. base

The only way for trump to lose his mystique and control over his base is when they see him totally emasculated. Broke, bankrupt, kaput.

[unitedwethrive]

13. F NO!!!

And I'm a 56 year old woman who never cusses!

[consider_this]

14. Preposterous! NO way!!!

[Mz Pip]

15. No

Not just no. No fucking way. No

[Codeine]

16. Fuck that.

His army of obese hillbillies doesn’t worry me.

[Claustrum]

17. First, NO WAY.

Secondly, what makes you think Trump will negotiate?

[RicROC]

27. Trump is a terrible negotiator.

Instead of merely resigning early, he would negotiate himself into a prison term.

[edhopper]

18. FUCK NO!

[Hoyt]

19. How is trump going to help Biden in transition? Biden doesn't need introduction to foreign leaders,

he's not going to keep any trumpsters in the Admin, he doesn't need introduction to administrative responsibilities, darn sure don't need introduction to trump's CV19 efforts, etc.

Seriously, trump and his cronies can just leave and Biden will step right in and not skip a beat.

[Doodley]

40. I'm thinking of avoiding civil unrest. Trump will cause it IMO, unless given a reason not to.

[Hoyt]

47. Got it. Personally, I don't think that will happen. We were supposed to have militia

groups intimidating polling places. Except for a few minor incidents, didn’t happen.

[Totally Tunsie]

41. Hell, Biden doesn't even need the courtesy WH tour.

He certainly knows it better than Chump.

[Hoyt]

48. Exactly.

[CatMor]

20. No ... never.

[bluecollar2]

21. NO

[MuseRider]

22. NO!

[dflprincess]

23. No

On the other hand. I believe there is a "Law & Order" for every occassion. I seem to recall an episode where McCoy cut a sweet deal with a criminal but the twist was it didn't apply to federal charges. As the crook left the courtroom, the Feds moved in.

With Trump, it could be done in reverse. He cuts a deal with the Feds and as he thinks he's walking away free, New York State troopers move in and drag him off.

[Doodley]

44. Yes, that is a scenario I like. He thinks he's getting away, calms his followers, and still gets

arrested.

[TlalocW]

24. Peaceful transition for

Biden throwing him a fast food banquet and another 3 months of playing golf on the government's dime.

TlalocW

[exboyfil]

25. No

[Bad Thoughts]

26. Maybe a pardon for Tiffany ...

... but no one else. And the investigation of Jared starts post haste.

[TwilightZone]

28. Nope.

[Suburban Warrior]

29. NO!

[Initech]

30. ...

[Catherine Vincent]

31. Hell to the no

[yellowcanine]

32. No, that is extortion, which never works. He would always keep demanding more in return for good

behavior. You don't negotiate with a thug.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

33. We don't make deals with terrorists! nt

[dixiechiken1]

34. No. We don't negotiate with terrorists.

[Withywindle]

35. You can't make a deal with someone who NEVER honors his commitments.

He doesn't pay bills. He left thousands of his own supporters miles away from their cars in the cold THREE TIMES because he stiffed the bus companies that were supposed to shuttle them back.

He won't honor a "deal" if he thinks it's remotely unfavorable to him in anyway. So, no deal.

[dhill926]

36. fuck 'im...

[grantcart]

38. Well it worked so well with Hitler.

[BainsBane]

39. no, Fuck Trump.

[GETTINGTIRED]

42. i'm here for it.

It, being watching trump physically removed from the White House kicking screaming and leaving orange drag marks across the grounds.

you don't bargain with folks the like of trump.



i do my hair toss, check my nails , baby how ya feel.
feelin' good as hell.

[world wide wally]

43. Not me

[Ponietz]

45. Rephrase: Should we formally offer to let him wipe his ass with the flag?

Absolutely no deals with the traitor.

[Digger]

46. No deals, but seriously

I hope they soon fit him for a straight jacket and take him to a rubber room somewhere. He wont be a danger to himself or the country while Pence fills in until mid-January.

[Yoyoyo77]

49. No!

But would let him take a flight to Moscow before starting his trial.

[TDale313]

50. We don't negotiate with terrorists.

No. He and those around him need to be held accountable. We tried the “time to move on for the healing of the nation” with both Nixon and W. It’s part of how we ended up here. It only emboldens the next wanna-be dictator. Which, if rumors are correct, could be Trump 2024.

[LowerManhattanite]

51. You don't negotiate with terrorists.

Full stop.

[Ohio Joe]

52. No...

[joshcryer]

53. The vote will be certified, the electors will be sent to congress, Biden will be elected...

...the next President, and Trump, no matter what he wants to do, will be removed from the White House on inauguration day, regardless of his actions to prevent this from happening. If he resists they will remove him by force.

The peaceful transfer of power will not be compromised by that old man.

[ooky]

54. No.

Post his secret service guy outside his cell door.

[zooks]

55. That is an ludicrous and contemptible idea.

Now he has incited his followers what makes you think he can control what his delusional followers will do? No one that corrupt and frankly that evil should be let off the hook for any reason. If he and his spawn don't feel the full force of the law, they will set up their own tv channel and spew their ignorance non-stop.

[DinahMoeHum]

56. Fuck. No.

NO. FUCKING. DEALS. EVER.

?1597279437

[SKKY]

57. Nope.

[phylny]

58. No.

It's about time we ignore him and do justice.

[relayerbob]

59. He's not going to do that under any conditions

He has far less to fear from US prosecutors than Russian oligarchs

[whttevrr]

60. no, and his little spawn too.

"Lock'em all up!"

[tanyev]

61. Give him a Trumpian deal.

Tell him he'll get something if he leaves and then say Naw, deal's off.

[Captain Zero]

75. This. This is good.

nt

[Captain Zero]

76. We work to have twitter, FB and networks cut him off faster during the transition - 7 second delay

Buzz him off if he starts unfounded shit.

[crickets]

62. NO.

[keithbvadu2]

63. He is attempting blackmail.

[Dem2theMax]

64. HELL NO!!!!

He won't agree to anything on his way out the door.
And he needs to pay for everything he has done.

Prison will be too good for him.

We should send him to France, and let them revive a very old tradition.

[Crunchy Frog]

65. No. Fucking. Way.

[reggaehead]

66. Yes

He and his brood agree to freezin and relinquinshing all Domestic assets. He and his brood renounce Citizenship. He and his brood leave the Country and agree to never return.

[qdouble]

67. Don't negotiate with terrorists

That would set an awful precedent.

[Caliman73]

68. No to your first statement and No to your amended statement.

Donald Trump does not make deals in good faith, so any deal that would be made with him would sully all hands and would not be adhered to.

No deals. He leaves office on January 20th and he faces whatever legal problems he is in. That is it. We root out all of the horrible people who supported Trump and kick them out of government.

[JCMach1]

69. We don't negotiate with terrorists

[hlthe2b]

70. WTF? Like negotiating with Osama bin Laden to go easy on us... HELL NO!

71. Can Trump be trusted? No. That's his defining characteristic. (Nt)

[argyl]

72. No fucking way.

[Brother Mythos]

73. Lock him up!

[Eid Ma Clack Shaw]

74. NO. Any deal should involve

him ratting out his criminal associates AND admitting, on camera, his lies and attempts to subvert democracy and agree - along with his family - to scuttle away and live away from the public eye. IF does that, I have little problem with him avoiding prison.

The surest bet of healing is for it to come from his own mouth because it’s the only source his cult will believe.

[Brainfodder]

77. Executed for treason is what he deserves.
