So, here’s the deal, folks. Donald Trump is not going to win a second round as the President of the United States. Several key battleground states are still counting their mail-in, early, military, and provisional ballots. However, you may as well go ahead and say that the fat lady is singing her heart out. Joe Biden has overtaken the incumbent President Donald Trump in states that the Trump team undoubtedly thought for sure were a lock — such as Georgia, Arizona, and now Pennsylvania.
Now, of course, the President is throwing a hissy fit of epic proportions, complete with litigations, court filings, demands for recounts, and barely coherent screeches of fraud with absolutely no evidence. But at the end of the day (Or week, or month, or year — based on how long this debacle is taking and Donald’s efforts to drag it out any further) there just doesn’t seem to be a single, legitimate path that would secure Donald Trump a second term. All he’s doing at this point is prolonging the inevitable.
While Donald is still clinging to the pipe dream of torturing this nation for another four years, many of his aides and people close to him are quickly beginning to realize and accept that this thing is over. Donald Trump lost the 2020 presidential election. Already, these people are trying to convince the President to do the same. Will they be successful? Who knows. Probably not. But one administration official did admit that they expect some pot-stirring to go down inside the White House during Donald’s impending lame duck period.
CNBC Washington correspondent Eamon Javers reported this evening that he spoke with a Trump administration official who admitted that they expect Donald to kick pardons into high gear and fire folks like Dr. Fauci and Defense Secretary Esper on his way out the door.

“I asked an administration official if he expects President Trump to issue pardons and fire officials such as Defense Secretary Esper, CIA Director Haspel and Dr. Fauci in a post election period. He replied, ‘Yes.'” Javers wrote on Twitter.

According to Javers, the official clarified, “I don’t expect him to go crazy and fire everybody, but we should expect some housecleaning. Some china is going to get broken.”

The administration official also revealed, speaking of senior Republicans and how they’re expected to handle Donald’s impending behavior, “They are all relieved of the pressure of pretending to like him. Senators care mostly about the Senate. The only thing probably keeping them from opening [sic] turning on him now is the Georgia races.”

Look… Will it suck if Donald Trump fires Dr. Fauci as our COVID-19 rates hit new, even more, alarming records with each passing day? Yea. It is. But I have not a doubt in my mind that Biden will not only bring Fauci back, he’ll replace that whole White House with bigger and better. After he fumigates it, of course.
