Donald Trump is trapped. For perhaps the first time in his life, he is being overtaken by events.

Facing likely impeachment by the House, what will he do?

Someone who knows him well, Barbara Res, a former vice president of the Trump Organization, believes Trump will quit or make a deal rather than get impeached.

“I think he does a lot to save face,” she explained on CNN’s Reliable Sources. “I could give you examples, but we don’t have time. But there are some things he can’t control. We’re now at the point where he can’t control this, he can’t do anything about this.”

“It would be very, very bad for him to be impeached,” she continued. “I don’t know that he would be found guilty, but I don’t think he wants to be impeached. I think that’s what this panic is about. My gut tells me he’ll leave office, resign, or make a deal, depending on what comes out.”

If Ms. Res is correct, it would appear the cornered Trump is left with three choices. Will he pick door number one, door number two or door number three?

Door Number One – Trump resigns and makes the best deal possible before the House issues articles of impeachment against him.

Door Number Two – Trump resigns and makes the best deal possible after the House issues articles of impeachment against him.

Door Number Three – Trump sells all his U.S. assets and boards an Aeroflot flight, along with his family, to Moscow.

People who know Donald Trump very well will tell you he is far from the brave fighter his ardent supporters think him to be.

I’m betting on Door Number Three. Donald Trump will do what is in the best interests of Donald Trump’s ass and assets … flee the scene of the crime before he is forced to face the music.
