Trump is blackmailing former presidents. This is primarily why Trump has the power he has. He knows anyone will do anything and sacrifice anyone just to save themselves.

Exactly. I feel like Obama would gladly take the hit (if there actually was any kompromat) and Biden and Clinton are old enough they have very few fucks left to give.

If Trump was smart, the absolute last thing he'd want to do is give a voice to Obama, the other most influential American speaker of the 21st century.

If.

Clinton, whatever other qualities he has, is not stupid. So can probably do just as much.
