An interesting theory by Chris Matthews last night:
There are some on the left who consider Trump's presidency to be illegitimate and they make a good case based on the Russian influence and the impact of the states that flipped to Trump plus his various pre-election coverups. As Matthews says, Trump should leverage the office while he still has it.
Chris Matthews Predicts Trump Could Resign ‘In The Coming Weeks’
There are some on the left that view his presidency to be illegitimate, however, almost all on the left KNOW that since the election was certified valid the only thing that "could" be done to remove Trump is impeachment and that is simply never going to happen. Even if it were to happen, you would have Pence as president. So those on the left still saying the presidency is illegitimate are fooling themselves. Like it or not, Trump's presidency is VALID and CERTIFIED. He is the 45th president and nothing the left (or anyone else) can do will change that. Pence may be the 46th president should Trump be impeached, but that's it. That's the facts.
Myself, I don't think Trump's ego will EVER let him resign as he lives in a reality where he thinks he is king. Only if an impeachment happens (by both the senate and the house), followed by an orange jump suit, will ever change his mind and that is highly unlikely to ever occur. Trump will not resign, EVER, and that is my prediction.
