The Donald Trump Score Card

Radical, vicious, racist,wrong, illegal, corrupt. Every descriptive word used by you Herr trump---- ( as posted in eggers post) ----you asshole liar--fits you perfectly. You have ruined this country in 4 short years including civil discourse , respect for honesty , respect for a democratic society and you deserve NO respect for yourself. You've shown how lacking in education and the ability to critically think through problems adds up to approximately NIL in 40 % or so of our citizens. Just who in the fuck do you think you are, you mentally ill son of a bitch??

 

See…..there we go again with that “they’re not after me, they are after YOU” bullshit. Matt Gaetz, who’s under investigation, said the same shit at his rallies too. The only thing “wrong or illegal” is the fact that Trump hasn't been held accountable for the mountain of offenses he’s committed and is still walking around a free man. Hurry up and prosecute, convict, and confine this conman!!!

 

IMMEDIATELY ARREST THAT MAN!!!

 

Georgia county purges Democrats from election board and cancels Sunday voting

excerpt:

"The judges met, in private, over a two-day period in May, for what might seem like a minor task: to choose the fifth member of an elections board in rural Spalding county, Georgia.

But the meetings were by no means routine. There is no record of their vote or their discussions. The interviews with Democratic and Republican applicants were conducted in private, via Zoom calls. And the position was only vacant because of a new law, specific only to Spalding county, recently introduced by the area’s two Republican state lawmakers.

In the end, the judges chose a Republican, someone who had never served in a government position related to elections, to be the fifth and deciding vote for the Spalding county board of elections and registration. Almost immediately, that Republican, James Newland, cast that deciding vote to cancel Sunday voting – a historically heavy turnout day for Black, largely Democratic voters.

It was just the latest blow to the county’s Democrats, and another loss for a party that is losing control of election boards across the state as Republican laws make GOP takeovers possible. But what happened in Spalding county is also just a fragment of GOP efforts nationwide to take over the apparatus of American elections. Their goal? To secure party control at every level of government – from the White House to state legislatures and election offices, all the way down to the precinct level, by employing thousands of poll watchers to potentially call into question Democratic votes."

 

Trump suggests he might pardon some Jan. 6 defendants - POLITICO

excerpt:

"Of the defendants sentenced so far, only three received a jail term that would extend past Biden’s first term: Robert Palmer, who assaulted police officers in the Capitol’s lower west terrace tunnel; Scott Fairlamb, who hit an officer in the head outside the Capitol; and Jacob Chansley, who wielded a spear and egged on early waves of rioters as he charged into the Senate chamber and took the dais where Pence had sat just minutes earlier. Palmer was sentenced last month to 63 months in prison, while Fairlamb and Chansley each received a 41-month sentence in November.

Dozens of others facing assault charges are still awaiting trial or plea agreements that could result in sentences far beyond the next inauguration. They include the 11 Oath Keepers charged with seditious conspiracy for allegedly preparing a violent attempt to prevent the transfer of power from Trump to Biden. They also include members of the Proud Boys leadership, like Nordean.

Authorities also continue to make new Jan. 6-related arrests on a nearly daily basis, estimating that between 2,000 and 2,500 people breached the Capitol that day — meaning that nearly two-thirds of potential cases have not even begun. Prosecutors estimate that about 1,000 police assaults occurred at the Capitol on Jan. 6."

 

Trump suggests he might pardon some Jan. 6 defendants - POLITICO

excerpt:

"On Sunday morning, some high-profile Republicans opposed Trump’s comments, saying pardons for Jan. 6 rioters should not be on the table. Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said on CBS’ “Face the Nation” that the statement was “inappropriate” when asked about the pardon comments.

“No, I don’t want to send any signal that it was OK to defile the Capitol,” Graham said. “There are other groups with causes that may want to go down the violent path that these people get pardoned.”

Graham also drew a comparison to “when [Vice President] Kamala Harris and her associates and the people that work for her, her staffers, raised money to bail out the rioters who hit cops in the head and burned down stores,” referencing racial justice protests after the killing of George Floyd in police custody.

A member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Graham said he hoped the rioters who contributed to the violence at the Capitol on Jan. 6 “go to jail and get the book thrown at them, because they deserve it.”

Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) also came out in opposition to the Trump comments on Sunday."

 

Trump has been planting more 'Blacks for Trump' at his rallies behind his podium.

He's upgraded from the days of a sole-supporter and his remark 'look at my African-American over here'.

Just The Facts

 

Trump says he wanted Pence to overturn the 2020 election and falsely claims it was vice president's 'right' - CNNPolitics

excerpt:

"Lofgren, a member of the House select committee probing the January 6 attack, added: "I guess the former President is saying that the vice president gets to choose the next president, in which case Kamala Harris will be presiding at the counting of the votes, and I guess he's saying she gets to choose who the next president is. That's clear to me, not what the Constitution provides for. He must be kidding."

GOP Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, whom Trump targeted in his statement, has led a bipartisan group of senators in discussions on ways to reform the Electoral Count Act, after it was used to try to disrupt the ceremonial counting of the vote in 2021. Collins on ABC's "This Week" said those meetings will resume Monday over Zoom. Collins was pressed earlier Sunday on whether there was a chance she would vote for Trump in 2024. She said it was "unlikely" but did not rule it out."

 

Trump is purporting that discussions about revising the Electoral Count Act of 1887 is proof that Pence had the right to overturn the election.


Trump Ridiculed For Stunning Admission About What He Wanted From Pence On Jan. 6

except:

"Both Democrats and Republicans have indicated they would like to correct ambiguities in the 1887 law, which Trump exploited to try and pressure Pence to block the certification of the election on Jan. 6, 2021. Pence refused.

Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) said last week that “We need to clarify: What is the role of the vice president precisely, make it clear that it’s ministerial.”

Critics and legal experts piled onto Trump’s statement. Conservative attorney George Conway said it was already clear from a legal standpoint that the vice president’s role in that setting is merely ceremonial, “but sometimes we want to make laws even clearer so that even semiliterate psychopaths have a chance at understanding them.”"

 

George Conway remark.

 

For good reason, In the 2020 Presidential election Biden received 87% of the Black Male vote to Trump's 12%

Among black females Biden did even better with 95% of the black female vote to 5% for Trump.

He must improve those numbers

 

With their latest selective voter suppression legislation and infiltration of election-related offices nationwide with fringe candidates, Trump and the GOP see a chance at effectively 'winning' black votes by squelching them rather than appealing to blacks to garner their votes.

 

Trump's suggestion he'll pardon Jan. 6 rioters "the stuff of dictators": Nixon WH lawyer

excerpt:

"John W. Dean, who served as White House counsel under former President Richard Nixon, blasted former President Donald Trump's suggestion at a Saturday rally that he will pardon those who attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, saying such an action is "the stuff of dictators."

During a rally near Houston, Texas, Trump told thousands of his supporters that the rioters who stormed the Capitol in an apparent effort to disrupt the formal certification of President Joe Biden's Electoral College victory are being treated "so unfairly." He went on to float the idea that they would receive "pardons" if he becomes president again.

"This is beyond being a demagogue to the stuff of dictators. He is defying the rule of law. Failure to confront a tyrant only encourages bad behavior. If thinking Americans don't understand what Trump is doing and what the criminal justice system must do we are all in big trouble!" Dean tweeted late Saturday evening, sharing a clip of Trump's remarks at the rally."

 

Trump has been defying the rule of law his entire life...

 

Trump's clone in Florida and the wave of draconian bills.


‘Free to do as you are told’: Florida Republicans advance wave of draconian bills

excerpt:

"It has been a long and painful month in the Florida legislature for opponents of the state’s Trumpist governor Ron DeSantis and his loyal band of rightwing Republicans. A slew of bills has advanced attacking everything from diversity rights, abortion protections and free speech in schools, in addition to a proposal that would legally shield white people from feeling “discomfort” over the state’s racist past.

And last Wednesday, an anti-masker physician, hand picked by the governor and apathetic about the value of Covid-19 vaccines, was backed unanimously by a Republican senate panel as the next surgeon-general following a walk-out by Democratic politicians frustrated by Joseph Ladapo’s evasiveness.

To hear DeSantis tell it, the “freedom state” of Florida is merely following the will of a populist citizenry in defying the perceived tyranny of the federal government, determined to protect liberty in the face of a deadly pandemic that has claimed more than 64,000 of their fellow residents, and standing up against the “indoctrination” of children.

Yet as the possible 2024 presidential candidate presses ahead with turning Florida into what critics see as his own conservative fiefdom – a de facto Trumpistan of the south with an “Orwellian-sounding” election police force – DeSantis is finding opposition beginning to harden."

 

Some in the GOP were hoping that Trump might finally ease his revenge campaign about his 2020 election loss to avoid more damage to the 2022 midterm elections.

A year and three months later, he's digging in deeper with his revenge, a well-known trait of Trump that his political cohorts still haven't come to fully anticipate.

Trump can go further by having a loyalist attorney general in a second term prosecute police who defended members of Congress during his riot, prosecute Pelosi for not having enough Capitol police on hand (for Trump's people to attack), and attack the FBI for supposedly causing his riot, the riot ('look at all those people fighting for me') that he wanted to help overthrow the election.

 

Trump would do it all over again.


Some Republicans warn Trump's latest Jan. 6 speech shows he would 'do it all again'

excerpt:

"Trump's comments on targeting prosecutors led Fulton County, Georgia, District Attorney Fani Willis, who is investigating whether Trump tried to influence the state's handling of the election, to ask the FBI for additional security for her office.

She noted in a Sunday letter to the FBI's Atlanta field office that her concerns were driven by Trump's comments in Texas attacking "radical, vicious racist prosecutors" and encouraging protests in Washington, New York and Atlanta."
