The Grifters last Con.

It has always amazed me how some people can spend decades doing great evil and never get caught. Then one day their luck runs out.

People like Madoff and serial killers like Gacy and Bundy, spent years stealing or killing. No one connected the dots. Then one day they made a mistake and paid a big price.

That will be the story of Trump. Trump somehow spent decades being a crook and he never paid a big price. Now Trump made his big mistake. He ran for president as a con job. He is going to pay a big price. This is his last con.

He was so sure he was finally playing with the big dogs, but I'm pretty sure they're laughing at him, not with him.
