The Donald Trump Score Card

If Trump wins the election, US cities are at risk of military takeovers and mass deportations

excerpt:

"The irony, Krasner said, was that Trump is justifying his aggression towards cities based on rising violent crime, when in fact homicides are down by more than 40% in Philadelphia this year. A report by the thinktank Third Way has found that for 23 consecutive years the murder rate has been higher in Republican states that have voted for Trump than in Democratic states."

 

Similar to Trump accusing Democrats of voter fraud while ignoring all of the instances Republicans who have been convicted of it, including people like Hartle in NV who used his dead wife's ballot to vote for Trump twice and pleaded guilty.

Foreign leaders and governments react as Trump wins 2024 U.S. presidential election

excerpt:

"Can we expect changes in approaches to the role of the U.S. in the Ukrainian conflict, which has been fueled by the Democratic administration since 2014? Judging by the election rhetoric (if it can still be believed), the Republican team is not going to send more and more American taxpayers' money into the furnace of a proxy war against Russia," Slutsky was quoted as saying. "Perhaps there is a chance for a more constructive approach here."

 

Putin invaded and annexed Crimea unprovoked in 2014, a fact that Trump didn't know and had to be informed about by a journalist. That's Putin's fault, not the Democrats in the U.S.

Putin invaded Ukraine in February 2022 without justification. That's not the fault of the Democrats either.

An Excerpt Of Donald Trump's Latest Speech, Unedited - This Man's Brain Isn't Working - Perez Hilton

excerpt:

“When I say insane asylums, and then I say, Dr. Hannibal Lecter, does anybody know? They go crazy they say, oh, he brings up these names out of, well, that’s genius, right, Dr. Hannibal Lecter. There’s nobody worse than him. ‘Silence of the Lambs.’ Who the hell else would even remember that? I have a great memory but they always hit me. I don’t bring it up too much because they have to take such a – he brought up Hannibal Lecter. What does that have to do with this? What is it? It has everything to do with it, right? He was, that’s who we are allowing into our country and we can’t allow it in our country. So I’ve done something for you for you that I haven’t done in 20 speeches, I brought up Dr. Hannibal Lecter and we’re allowing him, you watch, you watch these fake people will say again, he brought up Hannibal Lecter has absolutely nothing to do. You know I do the weave, right, the weave it’s genius. You bring up Hannibal Lecter, you mention insane asylum. Hannibal Lecter. You go out, now there’ll be a time in life where the weave won’t finish properly at the bottom and then we can talk. But right now it’s pure genius hey, I have an uncle, my uncle, Uncle John, my father’s brother, 41 years at MIT longest-serving professor has so many degrees he didn’t know what the hell to do with them all in the most complicated, I understand a lot of this stuff, you know, I believe in that. Like, I mean, Jack Nicklaus is not gonna produce a bad golfer. Right you know, that’s the way it works it’s just one of those things and it’s in the family and it’s whatever.”

Kari Lake losing U.S. Senate race.

She lost the governor race in 2022 and is still fighting it in court.

Did Kari Lake get elected to Senate? Ruben Gallego's lead in Arizona becomes leaner, say US media

Who is Ruben Gallego?

"The son of immigrants from Mexico and Colombia, Gallego was raised in Chicago by a single mother and eventually accepted to Harvard University. He enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve and fought in Iraq in 2005 in a unit that sustained heavy casualties, including the death of his best friend. If elected, he would be the first Latino U.S. senator from Arizona."

Trump should spend that time telling the public about his healthcare plan. It's been nine years and he still hasn't given a meaningful plan for healthcare after saying he will have big, beautiful, inexpensive, high quality healthcare for all (along with his usual "I'm gonna do it fast").

It's been nearly four years and he still hasn't told the public what he was doing at the White House while his riot at the Capitol raged for hours.

Trump keeps saying that he will respond at an appropriate time.

 

Now that he's been reelected, Trump can turn on the big faucet that he says is up north somewhere to solve the wildfire problems in southern California.

 

Trump will be on the phone with Putin rambling about Hannibal Lecter.


Donald Trump will call Putin for quick Ukraine war deal: ex-ambassador

excerpt:

"His comments come amid uncertainty about what the Trump presidency will mean for continued U.S aid for Ukraine, given his repeated criticism of Washington's financial support. However, Putin will be "a cunning and wily opponent" for Trump and he doesn't want a deal, but rather to take all of Ukraine, Volker said."

 

Ironic, since it feels like I'm now living under occupation. I've been wondering what our allies think. I kinda need Europe to remember those two world wars and do We The People a solid and come liberate us from our own ruthless dictator.

 

It is a bit much (or at least soon) to call him a dictator and ask for liberation. You will need a more serious attack on power structures for more than the existing legal mandates (for example changing the existing rules to give him another mandate after 4 years would be such a move, but he is probably too old for that).

If that was to happen no one would be able to liberate you, it is the US that would be able to foster more undemocratic events outside. Can't "liberate" the biggest military power in the world by orders of magnitude.

But for Europe there might be some good aspects in all of that. We have been possibly too reliant on US and consequently too compliant. It might result in a bit more independence and more investment in the military, which would of course backfire and be shortsighted for the US as they would loose a close reliable ally, actually 30 allies and as many votes in the UN as well as 1-2 votes among security council permanent members (depends if we include the UK with the rest of Europe).

Keep in mid though that France has its own agenda. It is pushing for more EU military independence for a long time now, and is as such on the opposite side of the spectrum from the Baltic nations, Poland and many others. So it is not necessarily coming from a balanced position that does not have an own agenda to push.

Either way some rattling and reshuffling of the international power distribution and "order" is not an impossible scenario with Trump in the White House. But one also never knows with him.

excerpt:

"The two federal criminal cases against him are now dead as a practical matter. Already there is reporting suggesting that special counsel Jack Smith will leave his post and dismiss the pending cases, which is not that surprising considering that Trump pledged to fire him once back in office anyway. The Georgia case, an overhyped and misguided vehicle for post-2020 legal accountability, is going to remain on ice and perhaps get thrown out entirely in the coming years, at least as to Trump (if not his co-defendants). In Manhattan, where Trump was supposed to be sentenced in a matter of weeks after his conviction in the Stormy Daniels hush money case earlier this year, Trump is likely to ask the court to cancel the sentencing date; regardless of the mechanics, there is no reasonable scenario in which Trump serves some period of incarceration while also serving in the White House."

Musk's million dollar recipients weren't randomly selected.


Elon Musk’s lawyer says $1M giveaway winners not randomly chosen, which could raise legal issues

 

Elon Musk’s Genius Lawyer Admits His $1 Million Lottery Is Total Scam | The New Republic

excerpt:

"Elon Musk has admitted that his $1 million daily giveaway isn’t really a lottery at all.

In Pennsylvania court on Monday, the lawyers for Musk and his America super PAC told Common Pleas Court Judge Angelo Foglietta that the prizes were not part of a giveaway or lottery, as “there is no prize to be won” and winners “are not chosen at random.”

Instead, attorney Chris Gober argued that the cash, which since early October was given each day to a registered voter in a battleground state who signed a pledge to uphold the First and Second Amendments to the Constitution, is a salary the recipients supposedly “earn” to be a spokesperson for the PAC. The recipients, registered to vote in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, or Wisconsin, aren’t chosen randomly but are picked based on their personal story and “suitability to serve,” according to Gober."
