The felon is the boy who cried "deal"

He has no way out.

He will never suck up the humiliating loss required to extract the U.S. from his monumental criminal mistake.

Whether you agree with me on that or not, if you accept it for the moment, the question I have is this: How many more times can he cry "deal" when there is no deal before it stops having the desired effects? (e.g., Investors buying stock in anticipation of the non-existent deal, talking heads propping up the lie with their endless analyses based on the false assumption that these idiots are capable of negotiating, and so on.)

Can he string it out without Americans calling bullshit for a month? Three months? Through December?? For years?

When? When will a majority of people, including the usual talking heads, just say bullshit. There is no deal. He'll never get us out because he knows it would make him a loser. And he can't be a loser.

How long will it take for enough Republicans to wake up and realize there is no way out as long as he's in the WH?
