The Donald Trump Score Card

Trump's impeachment trial will be held in the U.S. Senate, similar to the counting of the electoral votes that occurred on Jan. 6, the day of the riot which caused his second impeachment.

Trump could arrange another 'March to the Capitol' protest and riot so that his followers can show support for him at his trial.

 

I still say entombment is expensive, but worth every penny.

 

‘Cowboys for Trump’ Leader Charged in Capitol Riots Met Ex-President ‘Several Times’

excerpt:

"A New Mexico county commissioner and leader of “Cowboys for Trump” who was arrested for storming the Capitol last month met with former President Donald Trump “several times” over the last couple of years, court documents state.

Couy Griffin, a 47-year-old Republican who represents Otero County’s 2nd district, was charged on Jan. 17 with knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority after he filmed himself on the Capitol steps during the Jan. 6 insurrection. He vowed to return to Washington, D.C., for President Joe Biden’s inauguration, armed with guns to “embrace” the Second Amendment, according to a criminal complaint.

“You want to say that that was a mob? You want to say that was violence? No sir,” Griffin said in a video posted on the “Cowboys for Trump” Facebook page the day after the insurrection. “No Ma’am. No, we could have a 2nd Amendment rally on those same steps that we had that rally yesterday. You know, and if we do, then it’s gonna be a sad day, because there’s gonna be blood running out of that building. But at the end of the day, you mark my word, we will plant our flag on the desk of Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer and Donald J. Trump if it boils down to it.”

At a Monday afternoon hearing, Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui ordered Griffin to remain locked up pending trial.

 

‘Cowboys for Trump’ Leader Charged in Capitol Riots Met Ex-President ‘Several Times’

excerpt:

"But Griffin’s relationship with Trump appears to go deeper. In March 2019, Griffin said he had a 30-minute phone conversation with the then-president after he organized a week-long horseback ride from Maryland to the nation’s capital in the name of border security.

During the call, Trump welcomed him to the White House that summer, and that meeting appeared to take place in September.

“He said, ‘Couy, that sounds amazing’... ‘If you will do that, then whenever you get here, there’s 20 acres on the South Lawn and the gate will be open to you at the White House where you can ride your horses right in,’” Griffin told the Alamogordo Daily News. “Then he jokingly said that he might have to get on my horse whenever I get there.”

In February 2020, Griffin had another audience with Trump in the Oval Office, The Washington Post first reported. Photos of their meeting were posted on the “Cowboys for Trump” Facebook page, which has since been suspended, along with its Twitter account."

 

Trump has met with the most unsavory of people in the Oval Office and made them part of his administration.

He has pardoned people like Stone, Manafort, Flynn, Kushner, Broidy, and Bannon who were in his orbit.

Obama's administration had no indictments, convictions or sentences throughout his two terms.

People were upset that Obama lived in the same neighborhood where an activist lived many years before he became president.

 

Trump’s swampiest pardons, ranked

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/01/20/trumps-swampiest-pardons-ranked/

excerpt:

"8. Seven GOP congressmen: Since Trump took office, two incumbent Republican congressmen have been convicted of crimes, Chris Collins (R-N.Y.) and Duncan D. Hunter (R-Calif.), as has a former congressman, Steve Stockman (R-Tex.). Trump pardoned all three of them. Trump also pardoned four former Republican congressmen convicted before his presidency: Rick Renzi (R-Ariz.), Robin Hayes (R-N.C.), Mark Siljander (R-Mich.) and Randall “Duke” Cunningham (R-Calif.). Their crimes vary in severity. Hayes, for instance, pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI during a corruption investigation, while Renzi and Cunningham were found guilty of extensive fraud and wrongdoing. But according to GovTrack’s Legislator Misconduct Database, Trump has now pardoned a majority of Republican congressmen convicted of felonies in the 21st century.

9. The corrupt Democrats: While Trump’s pardons of politicians are overwhelmingly for members of his own party, Trump has seen fit to pardon some Democrats. Most notable among them: former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich and former Detroit mayor Kwame Kilpatrick. Both were found guilty of extensive corruption, including Blagojevich’s effort to sell a Senate appointment and Kilpatrick’s 24 criminal counts — a tally that earned him a stunning 28-year sentence. Blagojevich, notably, was a guest on “The Apprentice” and has recently emerged as a Trump backer."

 

How long before this idiot changes his mind ala Kevin McCarthy?

Donald Duck handed out pardons according to who did the most damage. A lot of the idiots who attended the riot were promised pardons, but never did enough damage. The idiots couldn't even kill Pelosi.

 

There’s just no law against being nuts, so until he crossed the line and destroyed those vials of vaccine there was nothing the law could do about him.

Now he can get the help he needs.

 

There’s already a holiday dedicated to Donald Trump every April 1st

‘Why Are You Standing in Our Way?’: Rioter Charged for Giving Capitol Cop a Concussion, Feds Say

excerpt:

"A Pennsylvania man has been charged for attacking Capitol Police officers during the Jan. 6 insurrection—and leaving one female officer with a concussion, according to court documents unsealed Monday.

Ryan Samsel, 37, has been charged with several crimes, including assaulting a federal officer, obstructing law enforcement, and obstructing a legal proceeding, after he was caught on several videos and photographs participating in the Capitol riots. He was taken into custody on Saturday, a law enforcement source told The Daily Beast."

 

Next week during the impeachment, Democrats need to subpoena all the Republicans and their cronies who were involved, and if they refuse to testify, have them arrested. What good is the power to subpoena someone if there are no repercussions for refusing?

 

You have it backwards, nobody has ever proven the existence of common sense anywhere in the world, and the insane appear to have always run the asylum. Laws are for sane people, not Americans.

 

‘Why Are You Standing in Our Way?’: Rioter Charged for Giving Capitol Cop a Concussion, Feds Say

excerpt:

"A North Carolina man was also charged Monday after he allegedly filmed himself storming the Capitol on Jan. 6. Stephen Maury Baker, 32, was arrested Monday and charged with unlawfully entering a restricted building and violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds for his role in the siege.

According to a criminal complaint, Baker live-streamed himself storming the Capitol on several social media platforms, including his YouTube channel called “Stephen Ignoramus.”

“That was so epic,” he said in one of the videos. “Historic day.”

After the riots, Baker deleted the videos, in which he referred to himself as “Stephen Ignoramus” multiple times, from his YouTube page."

 

Trump and his followers are the type who would want to make the Jan. 6 riot day a national holiday.

 

So that the whole country can pay condolences to Trump who thinks his 'landslide win' was so unceremoniously and viciously stolen from him.

The Capitol riot itself was comfort for Trump in that he felt it reinforced his false belief that he had won the election. He enjoyed watching on TV his supporters rioting for him for about two hours without doing anything to stop it.

Trump has been trying to defend himself for his upcoming impeachment trial by saying that the election really was stolen from him and that, therefore, the riot was justified and can't be used as evidence that he acted wrongly.

It was a contention point between him and his initial slate of impeachment trial lawyers who eventually quit on him.

excerpt:

"Former president Donald Trump lost the 2020 election largely due to his handling of the coronavirus pandemic, according to a post-election autopsy completed by Trump campaign pollster Tony Fabrizio.

The 27-page document shows that voters in 10 key states rated the pandemic as their top voting issue, and President Biden won higher marks on the topic. The report also indicates that Trump lost ground among key demographic groups he needed.

The internal report cuts against Trump’s claims that the election was stolen from him and that Biden could not have fairly beaten him — and mirrors what many Trump campaign officials said privately for months.

The analysis by Fabrizio, a Florida pollster who has worked for Trump for years, was shared among campaign advisers late last year and was provided to The Washington Post on Monday night. Politico first reported on the existence of the document.

The states studied were Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Florida, Iowa, North Carolina, Ohio and Texas.

Voters in the states overwhelmingly supported a mask mandate — 75 percent — and Anthony S. Fauci, the country’s top infectious-disease specialist, secured an approval rating almost as high. Trump did not support a mask mandate — sometimes mocking the wearing of masks — and regularly criticized Fauci, threatening to fire him at times.

Advisers repeatedly encouraged Trump to wear a mask, stop attacking Fauci and signal to the public that he was taking the coronavirus more seriously, particularly after he was hospitalized and given an experimental drug. Trump was largely resistant and mocked the virus down the stretch, sarcastically saying “Covid, covid, covid” at his rallies and falsely predicting the virus would leave the news after the election. More than 400,000 people have died of covid-19, the disease caused by the virus."

 

Trump stole the election from himself.

 

Donald Duck didn't steal the first election, he paid cold hard cash for it, but Biden managed to get more cash together for this one. Cash is only worth so much in a Banana republic, and Wall Street has pretentions of grandeur.

 

Capitol Rioters May Be Ready to Start Snitching on Each Other
At least three Capitol rioters have agreed to be charged by an information instead of a grand jury indictment, suggesting they plan to take plea deals.

Capitol Rioters May Be Ready to Start Snitching on Each Other

excerpt:

"Now, it appears several rioters are abandoning the group’s original rallying cry to never give up—potentially opting for plea agreements with prosecutors to save their own skin.

More than 150 individuals across 39 states have been federally charged for participating in the Capitol siege. While a majority of these Trump supporters only face misdemeanor charges, recent court documents suggest that some are planning to plead guilty or take plea deals in exchange for their cooperation in ongoing investigations.

According to federal court records, at least three rioters have agreed to be charged by information—a process generally used by those planning to plead guilty—instead of waiting for a grand jury indictment. Like an indictment, an information is still a charging document outlining an individual’s alleged crimes.

“Informations are a clear sign that these defendants intend to plead guilty,” former federal prosecutor Neama Rahman told The Daily Beast. “Defense attorneys do not advise clients to waive their right to an indictment (or in rare cases, a preliminary hearing) unless there are active plea negotiations and an offer on the table.”

“Even if there is the potential for cooperation against others, defendants will usually plead guilty, then cooperate with the government before they are sentenced, whether that be a proffer, testifying before the Grand Jury, or testifying at trial,” he added."
