Convicted criminal President Donald Trump's Legacy

Now now, saying things like "don't care" implies just apathy. That person that created this is forgetting the people that actually love Trump for all those things.

It's like they are stupid enough to think Trump is just that way to the people they don't like, and don't realize he equally doesn't give a shit about his supporters and will have no qualms about screwing them over. If a common person that belongs to his base was on fire in front of him he wouldn't even bother to piss on them to put them out.

Or they are even worse and actively think that as long as he hurts the people they don't like slightly more than he hurts them it's all okay then.

An op-ed about the perspective of Trump NOT running in 2024. Well worth a read!

Two words explain why Trump won’t run in 2024​

Whenever two or more politically active people engage in conversation, invariably someone asks, “Will Donald Trump run in 2024?”

My standard answer is always “I have no idea” — until last week when Trump’s much-ballyhooed vendetta campaigns to defeat Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger ended in embarrassing anti-Trump failures.

Reportedly, Trump was “stunned” by the results and headlines such as The Washington Post’s “Trump rebuked with stinging losses in Georgia GOP contests.” But they’re not surprising since the former president’s primary challengers — former Sen. David Perdue (R-Ga.) and Rep. Jody Hice (R-Ga.) — were Trump stand-ins specifically chosen to promote the “Big Lie” — his perpetual mantra about the “stolen” 2020 election.

Trump’s repudiation in Georgia has Republicans speculating about his declining kingmaking powers, openly defying him as he loses his “vise-like grip on the party” and potentially endangering his front-runner status. So, circling back to the most-asked question, my new answer is “Trump won’t run in 2024” — based on personality traits rooted in the words “fear” and “fight.”

Trump Wants Children's Book Defending 'King Donald' In 'Every School In America'​

The fairytale "The Plot Against the King" erases the Kremlin's interference in the 2016 election

Former President Donald Trump is peddling a children’s book written by a former member of his administration that stars “King Donald” and reimagines a kingdom where the “Russionians” weren’t a factor in the 2016 election.
Now Trump wants to distribute the book to children across the land. “Let’s put this amazing book in every school in America,” Trump posted on Truth Social last week.

“The Plot Against the King” was written by Republican and Trump loyalist Kash Patel, the former president’s hand-picked Pentagon chief of staff.

Conservative publisher Brave Books is presenting the work as both fairytale and fact. It calls the book a “fantastical retelling of the terrible true story.”
“A key player in uncovering one of our nation’s biggest injustices tells the whole story — for kids! Kash Patel ..... brings a fantastical retelling of Hillary’s horrible plot against Trump to the whole family,” says a statement by the publisher. Patel says in his own statement that he believes it’s important for people to know the truth in the fairytale

The book focuses on an evil plot by mean “Hillary Queenton” and her “shifty knights” to reveal that King Donald was working with the “Russionians” to cheat his way into the Oval Office. Patel himself appears in the book as a “wizard” who attempts to prove King Donald was wrongly accused.
The book claims, in fairytale speak, that the discredited dossier on King Donald and the “Russionians” — compiled in real life by former MI-5 officer Christopher Steele — triggered the American intelligence probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
The book slyly claims that the dossier was “written” by Hillary Queenton and “put in a steel box.”
In fact, U.S. intelligence launched its investigation in the summer of 2016, months before the Steele dossier was available. The probe determined that Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the launch of an influence campaign aimed at getting Trump elected in 2016 and “undermining public faith” in the democratic process. Those findings were soundly supported in a later bipartisan investigation and report by the Senate Intelligence Committee.
A probe by Special Counsel Robert Mueller into possible Kremlin collusion with the Trump campaign uncovered “numerous links between the Russian government and the Trump campaign.” Trump’s Attorney General William Barr determined there was no collusion.
Trump much prefers Patel’s version of the world.
An Amazon review comment on the book from “DJ-T,” that included the former president’s photo, gushed: “This is the most spectacular children’s book ever! This will be YUGE!”

Google last month temporarily suspended the book publisher from its ad platform for “circumventing system policy,” according to a Google statement to Brave Books obtained by Fox Business.
It was unclear exactly what the publisher did to break the rules. But the Google statement noted that the company “doesn’t want users to feel misled by the content promoted in Shopping ads,” and referred to “promotions that represent you or your products in a way that is not accurate, realistic, or truthful.”
Patel later blasted the move as a “witchhunt.”

And, then, the same conservative will claim they oppose "wokeness" 'cause they don't want politics in entertainment....

I have to agree with Chris Wallace’s opinion “I’m not sure this or anything will change your mind.”

It was a clear indictment of the mob, it needs to be part of the record, and was well done. Unfortunately, I don’t see too many people changing their minds because of it.


This is how too many will view it:
“Gas is over five bucks. Inflation is higher than it's been in the lifetime of most Americans. Violent crime is making cities impossible to live in, and more than one hundred thousand Americans ODed on drugs last year. Why isn't there a prime time hearing about any of that?"

When people have to resort to Whataboutism as their main method of defense or deflection it's a gigantic indication they have already lost any logic based argument.

I came across this quote from G Gordon Liddy during some weekend reading on Watergate:
“In the real world you sometimes have to employ extreme and extralegal methods to preserve the very system whose laws you’re violating.”

This sounds like the credo of many Jan 6th participants. The part they miss is that they do not represent anyone beyond themselves. Why do they believe they are the arbiters of right and wrong?

Well gmase, do you think they want you to decide if they are right or wrong? You might decide the wrong way and then what?

William Barr testifying, "Trump was detached from reality"

William Barr testifying, "Trump was detached from reality"

Barr is pandering to both sides, blaming Trump and at the same time making excuses for what Trump did.
Ahole Trump knew exactly what he was doing, driven by greed he would rather tear America apart than lose the power he had as president.
How many people who hurt Trump's feelings did ahole Trump have unjustly investigated by the FBI, IRS, etc. when ahole Trump was president??
How many billions of government money were swindled by ahole Trump and cronies during his failed corrupt presidency???
How much classified info did ahole Trump give to his mafia buddies and cronies, and to ahole Putin???
Barr knew what was going to happen on Jan. 6, 2021, but instead of warning the FBI, DOJ, Congress, Senate, etc., he quit his job like a coward and traitor.

 

[John_8581]

Whoa! Calm down @Luxman. The official line was that William Barr resigned in December 2020. But did President Trump "fire" him? (The President has resignation letters on all of his Cabinet appointees including the Attorney General well beforehand. All the President does is add the date at the top of the letter. Look at his predecessor Jeff Sessions as an example.) There was no way that he knew about an upcoming riot on January 6, 2021. You've been brainwashed with Donald Trump's misinformation and his false claims of voter fraud.
