The petulant child doesn't like being asked hard questions: https://www.politico.com/news/2023/05/04/trump-deposition-rape-trial-00095385
In the deposition, conducted at Mar-a-Lago in October, Kaplan asked Trump about the “Access Hollywood” tape, a recording from 2005 in which Trump can be heard saying, “When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything,” adding: “Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.”
'Well, historically that’s true with stars,' Trump replied after watching a clip of his comments.
When the lawyer pressed him on whether he stood by the statement that a star could 'grab them by the pussy,' the former president said: 'Well, I guess if you look over the last million years, that’s been largely true — not always true, but largely true, unfortunately or fortunately.'
'And you consider yourself to be a star?' she asked.
'I think so, yeah,' Trump said.
Given that 'on the ground' insurrectionists are facing up to 25 year sentences, those up the line must be crapping themselves.
Except for T****. He is so up himself he will think himself untouchable. However, he surely is facing a wee bit of anxiety now with all the cases coming up?
Even if the underlings get 10 years, most of the leaders of the insurrection could see their lives out in gaol.
Please let it happen.

The NY Times - Donald Trump’s Time-Tested Legal Strategy: Attack and Delay
04 May
Attack. Attack. Attack. Delay. Delay. Delay.
Those two tactics have been at the center of Donald J. Trump’s favored strategy in court cases for much of his adult life, and will likely be the former president’s approach to fighting the criminal charges now leveled against him if he sticks to his well-worn legal playbook.
In fact, his attacks against both the prosecutor and the judge in the case have already begun. ...

Yeah, it does seem incredible. Still, I don't think anyone need worry about Trump being elected again. In 2016 he only just made it against an already unpopular Hillary Clinton, who then lost more credibility due to an unfortunate error by the then head of the FBI, James Comey, over the email server business. Russian interference was the final straw.
As they say, a week in politics is a long time, let alone the eighteen months until November 2024, during which time Trump will be fronting up to, and undoubtedly losing, a host of legal battles and probable criminal prosecutions.
On top of all that, it seems likely that the GOP will face more bloodletting in the coming months, while Joe Biden quietly beavers away at repairing America.
My money's on the Dems, by an even bigger margin than 2020. Trump's antics are only a distraction.

I hope so, but ... remember this?
The NZ Herald - Obama: 'Trump will not be president'
17 Feb, 2016
Watch Obama say it, at a news conference:
"I continue to believe that Trump will not be president. And the reason is that I have a lot of faith in the American people. And I think they realise that being president of the United States is a serious job. It’s not hosting a talk show ..."

I remember 2016 - almost every poll in the world said Hillary would win, and she did! But she won the popular vote, not the Electoral College. That's the one that matters (sadly).
