Trump is going to be able to literally act out his favorite fable, the Woman and the Snake

when the GOP enacts a nation-wide abortion ban with no exceptions, and the women of this country who voted for him or didn't turn out to vote for Harris say "you promised you wouldn't sign an abortion ban", and Trump says "you knew I was a snake when you first picked me up".

Someone get me out of this timeline.

I do think Trump has dementia, is a narcissist, is a sadist, but even with diminishing mental faculties he is crafty.

I think he told the story of the woman and the snake, and the story of the Scorpion and the Frog to troll his supporters. I agree with you that he is both the Scorpion and the snake. We didn't vote for him. The "woman" who took him in was his supporters. He's making fun of them.

but that could be Trump getting it wrong as usual. That said, women Trump voters won't be the only group set to be "surprised" by the snake.
