How long until the Trump scandal machine goes idle?

?

edit: 'regular basis' is clarified as one or more new scandals a week, which is still less than the past couple weeks, which seems like one a day.

[Absentee Voting Ghost of Ruin]

Trump is quite capable of producing scandals until he is dead, buried and well dessicated.

Who the hell knows? I don't think the frequency is going to follow any kind of pattern - nothing has in this presidency so far.

Supposedly, Mueller doesn't leak. So to the extent that is accurate, with him leading the investigation, eventually we should run out of things that happened in the investigation prior to his takeover that can be leaked.

The problem is that a lot of the things that are being leaked seem to be not directly coming from the investigation. As an example, reports of what Trump is talking about in the Oval Office as he shoots himself in the foot every other day. So those sorts of leaks will presumably continue, even if other leaks do actually stop under Mueller's leadership.

Honestly this would be a preferable outcome--when all the Trump scandals are on the news 24/7 people become numb to them just like they did during the election, and then they matter less and less to people.

At least until January 20th, 2025.

That assumes that he can be re-elected and that he will not resign.

Unlike most people in high positions of responsibility he has no tendency to learn from his mistakes and the belief that his formal power shields him from any personal consequences.

The "Russian connection" scandal will go to the back burner when the story gets dull -- but the prosecutors will not be talking about it to the media. They will wait until they can use their collected knowledge in a criminal court or use it to badger him to resign. But President Trump is likely to see himself charmed.
