The Donald Trump Score Card

Belarus TV: American facing Jan. 6 riot charges seeks asylum

 

Trump required six takes to issue a video telling his rioters to go home.


Explainer: What's the Jan. 6 committee looking for in Trump's White House records?

excerpt:

"Bennie Thompson, the Mississippi Democrat who chairs the Select Committee, told CNN on Tuesday that the ruling allows it to see outtakes of a video Trump filmed on Jan. 6 as the riots were unfolding.

In that video, Trump urged supporters to "go home in peace," but also "we love you, you’re very special." He also repeated multiple false claims about the election being stolen.

Thompson told CNN Trump filmed the video six times because his advisers thought he was not forceful enough in telling the rioters to go home."

excerpt:

"The Capitol was under siege — and the president, glued to the television, did nothing. For 187 minutes, Trump resisted entreaties to intervene from advisers, allies and his elder daughter, as well as lawmakers under attack. Even as the violence at the Capitol intensified, even after Vice President Mike Pence, his family and hundreds of Congress members and their staffers hid to protect themselves, even after the first two people died and scores of others were assaulted, Trump declined for more than three hours to tell the renegades rioting in his name to stand down and go home."

excerpt:

"Live television news coverage showed the horror accelerating minute by minute after 1:10 p.m., when Trump had called on his followers to march on the U.S. Capitol. The pro-Trump rioters toppled security barricades. They bludgeoned police. They scaled granite walls. And then they smashed windows and doors to breach the hallowed building that has stood for more than two centuries as the seat of American democracy."

 

Trump's rioters had rehearsed lines learned from underground forums where people were planning the attack and telling everyone what to do and say.

"This is our house."
"Let us in."
"We outnumber you."
"You are traitors."

Bannon said all hell would break loose on Wednesday, January 6.

Various bloggers were making sarcastic remarks such as, "Just wait till Wednesday."

 

Dunno what defines sedition, but I think Webster might footnote *see Jan 6

 

Good!

 

Sedition;

conduct or speech inciting people to rebel against the authority of a state or monarch.


* See Jan. 6th

 

That covers all bases for Trump who was president and who thinks he's a monarch.

The QAnon Shaman should get 51 months in prison just for the costume he was wearing.


51-month sentence urged for ‘QAnon Shaman’ Jacob Chansley

excerpt:

"Jacob Chansley — the QAnon adherent who infamously stormed the Senate chamber shirtless and wearing horns on Jan. 6 — should go to prison for 51 months, prosecutors said Tuesday in a late-night sentencing memo carrying their stiffest recommendation yet in any case stemming from the insurrection.

Images of Chansley on the Senate rostrum, where he scrawled a menacing note to Vice President Mike Pence, became iconic in the aftermath of the attack. The so-called “QAnon Shaman” is just the third felony defendant to reach the sentencing phase of his prosecution after pleading guilty to obstructing Congress’ effort to certify the 2020 election."

"Covid is a hoax..." ~ Some MAGA Guy

 

Trump fostered the denialist sentiment that sowed the seeds for the increasing problems his supporters are now experiencing with the virus relative to the rest of the populace.

Perhaps realizing that his constituents are dying at an alarming rate (Alabama on course to have a decreased population in 2021 for the first time), at a rally in August 2021 Trump started to soften his stance on vaccines to the chagrin of his attendees who sneered at his remark.


ICU Nurse: Many Patients Still Don’t Believe COVID Is Real, Blame Hospital For Illness: ‘They’re Calling You A Murderer’

ICU Nurse: Many Patients Still Don't Believe COVID Is Real, Blame Hospital For Illness: 'They're Calling You A Murderer'

excerpt:

"Combs says a great percentage of critical COVID patients now are not merely in disbelief, as she’s witnessed with cancer patients over the years, but disbelievers. “It’s hard though, when you know that you’re doing good for the patients, but they’re yelling at you,” she said. “They’re telling you it’s not real. They’re telling you that you’re a murderer.”

Some believe the hospital is making them sick. “’I can’t breathe,’” she hears them say. “Exactly. That’s because you have COVID. ‘Well no I don’t have COVID, that’s not real.’ I’ve had these conversations with people.”

Then there’s blame — on the hospitals, doctors and nurses. “That it’s created by somebody else or created by the media or the government or what not. I’ve never experienced that… There are those who just absolutely will deny it all the way until the moment when they’re no longer alive.”

In addition to the people with the infection, the families are also angry, even as she holds pads close to their loved ones so they can communicate. “We get threats. We have people yell at us, on the phone. They’re not nice.”

Their claims go to extremes, including allegations of harm. “That we are the cause of them getting sicker and dying. That we are causing this,” says Combs."

 

Uh, if I can remember, I think it was actually Trump in the beginning that said that.

 

Striking is the fact that Trump's supporters defy him when he tells them to vaccinate.

A similar intransigence would be expected if Trump changed course and told his followers that the election wasn't stolen from him afterall.

He makes sentiments so deep-rooted that they are next to impossible to change.

 

Swift Ruling Tests Trump’s Tactic of Running Out the Clock

excerpt:

"WASHINGTON — On the surface, a judge’s ruling on Tuesday night that Congress can obtain Trump White House files related to the Jan. 6 riot seemed to echo another high-profile ruling in November 2019. In the earlier matter, a judge said a former White House counsel must testify about then-President Donald J. Trump’s efforts to obstruct the Russia investigation.

In both cases, Democratic-controlled House oversight committees issued subpoenas, Mr. Trump sought to stonewall those efforts by invoking constitutional secrecy powers, and Obama-appointed Federal District Court judges — to liberal cheers — ruled against him. Each ruling even made the same catchy declaration: “presidents are not kings.”

But there was a big difference: The White House counsel case two years ago had chewed up three and a half months by the time Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson issued a 120-page opinion to end its first stage. Just 23 days elapsed between Mr. Trump’s filing of the Jan. 6 papers lawsuit and Judge Tanya Chutkan’s ruling against him.

The case, which raises novel issues about the scope of executive privilege when asserted by a former president, is not over: Mr. Trump is asking an appeals court to overturn Judge Chutkan’s ruling and, in the interim, to block the National Archives from giving Congress the first set of files on Friday. The litigation appears destined to reach the Supreme Court, which Mr. Trump reshaped with three appointments.

But if the rapid pace set by Judge Chutkan continues, it would mark a significant change from how lawsuits over congressional subpoenas went during the Trump era."
