I know that after you leave office as POTUS it is some sort of unwritten rule that you withdraw from politics.

Why did Trump not withdraw?

Also why isn't he a senator or congressman during Biden's term?

I guess he hadn't taken enough advantages on the side yet, so he decided to try it all again.

Imagine conservatives don’t have to get pissy about stuff they made up themselves. After decades of imaginary things, fabricated in their own minds, it’s easy to not take a single thing serious that comes out of their mouths.

One day it will be something real, something serious and dangerous for us all. And nobody will listen to them.

Yeah there is a lot that is going wrong there! especially there used to be at least in the USA the mantra of "I didn't vote for the guy but he is our president and as such I stand behind him in support" that is completely gone it seems. I know republicans in the past who said things like that to me.

I'd be amazed if he could actually do it without Jill's help

Imagine how Democrats would feel if Trump did this every day
