…ESPECIALLY AFTER TRUMP’S 60 MINUTES INTERVIEW SUPPORTING AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS
SOTN Editor’s Note: In any other country on Earth, the head of state would ignominiously resign after so may profound betrayals, brazenly broken promises and reckless abuse of the citizenry. That’s not to mention the numerous high crimes and misdemeanors, as well as the shockingly rank corruption associated this lame duck prez and his sleazy administration. But, no, not Trump; for where there is no shame and no conscience, a malignant narcissist simply does not know how to act.
However, in spite of the well articulated plea for his resignation below, which SOTN fully agrees with, this Alt Media platform does harbor a secret wish to see Trump stay in the Oval Office for the remainder of his term.
Why?
So that then there will at least be the possibility of both wings of the stunningly treasonous Uniparty taking each other apart in a real political bloodbath like this nation has never seen. Not an electoral one, mind you, but a knock-down drag-out war that leaves neither side standing.
Both of these utterly traitorous political parties ought to go scorched earth on each other so that the Patriot Movement does not have to take a nuclear flamethrower to everything inside the Beltway. For only when that wretched, putrid swamp is completely drained and incinerated and salted will the American have any hope of taking back their Republic…sorry to say.
State of the Nation
November 11, 2026
Resign, Mr President
It’s truly the best option for you, your party, and the country.
Andrew Sullivan

You probably haven’t fully absorbed it yet, as you wander aimlessly through the wreckage of your glorious new East Wing, and lash out at Susie Wiles as therapy, but you were just fired by the American people. Yep. Fired.
That 13 percent margin of victory for the not-exactly popular Democrats? That’s a once-in-a-century margin. That’s the biggest public repudiation of any party since the 1974 Watergate election. You have to go back to 1926 to find a margin that’s bigger.
That makes you a once-in-a-century loser, sir.
I’ve seen this for a decade now, Mr President, but you don’t read, of course, so let me reprise what so many of your voters now finally, finally see. You’re a liar and a conman who preys on the weak and the poor. You’ve made the GOP toxic for an entire generation, and divided it into warring factions that are just kicking into internecine gear. The gains you and your party made with Hispanics, blacks, and other minorities in 2024 have been wiped clean. That remarkable new multiracial, working-class coalition of two years ago? Vaporized. Even men turned blue this time.
You needlessly dummy-mandered far more seat losses than you gained. You yanked viable, popular candidates and replaced them with hacks, crooks, cronies, and losers. You turned 60 percent support from young men to 60 percent opposition. Texas now has a Democratic governor and senator. A man you demonized as a “jihadist” beat the crap out of you in Michigan. “Talafreako” moderated and kicked your party’s ass. You made the South competitive again. You lost Mississippi! And even Kansas, which hasn’t elected a Dem Senator since 1932.
Large swathes of your own base have come to loathe you — and for very good reason. You had two defining policies for many — no more forever wars, and a better economy — and you blithely tore up that promise for a cheap stab at dumb glory based on “farcical” intelligence. You know how much contempt you have for the working men and women who took you at your word? You didn’t even bother to tell them about the war in advance. And you’ve never offered a coherent case since. Contempt is the word. And they finally see it. Thank God they finally see it.
There were many more baits and switches, of course. You told them you’d target gang-members and criminals in immigration control but went after mothers and sons in schools and hospitals, and gunned down American citizens in the streets. You said you were for free speech, and then waged a campaign of FCC intimidation at every independent news source, monitored online speech with AI, and disappeared students into vans for the crime of writing op-eds. And let’s not forget the Epstein pirouette. Your base sure won’t.
You said you’d balance the budget and drain the swamp and then, in less than two years, added a staggering $4.3 trillion to the national debt while enriching yourself to the tune of $1.4 billion in crypto lucre. That’s a world-historical mashup of incompetence and corruption. In a matter of months, Washington became a septic tank of corruption, with your own disgusting family deep in the muck.
You were always a phony populist. You told your voters struggling to pay their bills that the word “groceries” was new to you. While they go broke paying for gas, you tell them to get over it because the oil companies are making a “freaking fortune.” You don’t even pretend anymore. You campaigned in a McDonald’s apron, and yet you instantly governed in gilded halls, marble floors, and Mar-a-Lago parties straight out of The Great Gatsby. That’s who you really are, you shameless, vile, nepo-boy creep.
You have hurt your allies more than your foes. You’ve discredited the religious right more thoroughly than Jimmy Swaggart ever could. You gave the neocons the kiss of death, destroyed the Israel alliance, while presiding over a wave of foul antisemitism — right and left. You made fools of those earnestly trying to build a new right-of-center coalition. The National Conservatives and the post-liberals and the Claremonsters and the AIPAC loonies all tried to find some string of policy coherence, and today? Well, they all look like idiots, and some of them are figuring that out. There is no coherent thread that connects the past ten years except your ego, stupidity, and cruelty.
And deep down, you know it. You know you have no business running the country. You know, deep down, that you’re completely out of your depth, and all your absurd bloviations and hyperboles merely prove the fathomless insecurity beneath. You were played by Netanyahu and the neocons like a fiddle: your vanity, stupidity, and recklessness were all they needed to hand Iran a strategic victory. Putin has you wrapped around his little finger, keeping his war effort afloat, and Xi took you to the cleaners on trade.
The NATO alliance took decades to solidify; in less than two years, you destroyed the trust it needs to function. Alliances that Americans died for you treat with callowness and contempt. You actually threatened to invade another NATO country, you cretin. You appointed a Fox News hack to the Pentagon, and a full-on lunatic to bring measles back to America. You want to know why Susan Collins lost? She greenlit all of that.
And no, this election was not about the issues or the cycle. It was always all about you, and you alone — the common denominator in all the catastrophes. You told the masses “Pretend I’m on the ballot!” almost 50 times. You chose to nationalize the election with a midterm convention. You campaigned as if it were a presidential year. You made it all about you, and the voters have given a resounding message back: No mas.
A vote this huge is more than a repudiation. It’s the American equivalent of a vote of no confidence. In a parliamentary system, you’d be gone in a couple of weeks, because your legitimacy has collapsed. The American people have no confidence that you can end either war in Ukraine or Iran; no confidence you can handle the looming AI transition; no confidence you can make life more affordable; no confidence you won’t make two more years of disastrous, irreversible decisions in global and domestic politics that will take decades to recover from.
And no confidence that you won’t continue to wreck the rule of law — the lifeblood of any democracy. You’ve turned the Justice Department into a personal vendetta machine; you’ve pardoned any criminal who had your back; and now you’re pledging generalized, mass pardons so that the executive branch can effectively operate outside the rule of law for the next two years. You have done this even with the recently expanded immunity granted by SCOTUS. You are simply incapable of governing in the system of government our Founders set up. You cannot follow the rule of law; you cannot compromise; you cannot negotiate; you actually cannot make a deal.
Every day that passes reinforces your unfitness. You can’t make a speech that isn’t full of ever-weirder digressions, sudden bursts of strange sounds, and bizarre non-sequiturs. Dementia is clearly nipping at the edges of what passes for your brain. You never tap the wealth of solid intel your office provides, relying instead on social media rumors and wild hunches to make increasingly erratic judgment calls. Your body is a mudslide; you’re wearing visible diapers; you can’t even walk in a straight line anymore. And no one believes or should ever believe a word of what you say. Worse than that: with you as president, no one can believe anything America says.
Of course, today you went into fight mode. Making Stephen Miller your chief of staff after this catastrophe of an election is classic Trump. Fight! Fight! Fight! But responding to this election collapse by picking one of the key architects of the immigration overreach and the war is effectively telling the American people to go fuck themselves. It’s clinging more closely to the people and policies the American public just voted decisively against. It’s politics as bad as the politics that lost the election. And you still don’t get it.
You really think “owning the libs” this way still works? You think you can get away with this kind of shit over the next two years the way you have the past ten? I wouldn’t be so sure. The spell was just broken. Try ramping up a war that was just resoundingly rejected by the American people — and see what happens. Try sending ICE goons out on the streets now. There will be crowds in the streets, a 20+ approval rating, and even many Republicans ready to vote for impeachment.
The only way for you to survive politically is to adapt the way Obama did after 2010 and Clinton did after 1994. But you can’t adapt; you can’t change; it’s your defining feature. Which the Miller pick proves. So it will be hell for you, trust me. All the fun is entirely in the rear-view mirror. You’ve lost most of your fan base. Your own vice president just disowned you; every wannabe successor is going to distance from you. The factions you are clinging to — the AIPAC loonies and the AI enablers — are fading fast in public esteem, and loathed by your voters. The Democrats have you on the run, and will relish every second of it. If they can get out of their own way, as they just did, you’re finished.
So do the sane thing and quit. It’s not impossible. A president who lost the country as profoundly as you have did it within our lifetimes. Heck, even a Pope resigned. Get out, go back to Florida, rollick in the billions you have fleeced from public service, get the whores you miss, and wallow in the undying bubble of adulation you require. Declare the last two years “the greatest two years in the history of the presidency,” as you did this week, with ever-more-demented poignancy — and leave.
You’ve destroyed your party, molested the Constitution, turbo-charged the debt, laid waste to our allies, and empowered our enemies. Your legitimacy is over. Your cult is in the Kool-Aid phase. You can spend the next two years in an ever-deepening cycle of political reckoning and disgrace, or you can spare yourself — and us! — the ordeal. In the immortal words of Oliver Cromwell,
You have sat too long here for any good you have been doing. Depart, I say, and let us have done with you.
In the name of God, go!
