A link to those claims would enable your interpretation of them to be verified.
Without that all we have is your word. Which isn’t enough given your freely admitted prejudice.

Michael Wolff forecasted this would be the Republican ticket in 2028, although whether it is a winner is another question. Personally I would prefer a Cox, Kirk ticket. That would be a sure fire winner which would command support from many quarters.

The world would be a whole lot better. In fact the only things worse off would probably be Trump’s finances and the comfort of the bed he sleeps in.

No chance. I don’t play silly games like that. I like to defeat poor arguments with better ones, calmly and persistently. I seek to convince, not confront. No matter the provocation, insults or disagreements.
Which is stark contrast to the aggression I encounter here from those who appear to be prepared to use violence to get their own way. Which to me is just being a bully. If anyone will be “come for” in the future it will be the bullies, whether here or in the USA.

Following the indictment of Comey and the underlying direction being taken by Trump I have been watching and reading a lot of analysis of what this means and where it could lead. Too much to post here but can be summarised as that a lot of people are very seriously concerned. Not so much for themselves as for their country. They are worried that the Supreme Court could be ignored and anyone in the military who refuses to commit to following the order of their Supreme Commander will be fired.
As Antony Zurcher in today’s analysis points out if Nixon had tried anything like this it would have provoked outrage from all sides. Trump does it and all it gets is a shrug:-

This video from Charlie Sykes, who is very much a serious conservative without any trace of the left in him, points up those concerns:-
Do watch. Whatever your politics this ought, in my view, concern us all.

Trump promised retribution - how far will he go?
As the US president pushes a crackdown on left-wing groups and openly targets political foes, critics ask where he's taking America

The Comey indictment isn't some Nixonian coup it is long overdue accountability for a Deep State hack who lied to Congress, leaked classified info, and weaponised the FBI against Trump.
Trump is delivering what he promised and more. It's going to be a cracking few years ahead of us!
