Perhaps he should consider the possibility that he's just not a very good father and he frightens his kids whenever he spews his crazy conspiracy theories
Nah... He should just consider the "mentally incompetent" part and then check himself into a facility that deals with that.
Lin Wood statement: "Here is a hypothetical question for you to ponder. An imperfect man is nonetheless a loving, caring father to his children for over 30 years. They love him deeply and he knows it. They have a wonderful relationship. All the friends of the family know of the love between the father and his children. Then when the father becomes the target of the Deep State in late 2019 to the present, ALL 4 of his children suddenly seem to attack their father and do not email him, text him, or call on his cell phone (things that can be monitored by the Deep State). Hmmmm . . ."
Another segment of Lin Wood's post. He has the anger, resentment, and name-calling harbored by Trump, his idol. Lin Wood: "Take a hard look at David “Fraudcock” Hancock, who is a former disgraced Navy SEAL and a Deep State operative. For whom does Old Dave really work in his handling of Kyle Rittenhouse and his obsessive attacks on me even belittling my lack of a relationship with my family? I threw Hancock off my SC property in late October after he created a number of incidents (there are witnesses) which required his removal. Those events occurred just before Mike Flynn and Sidney Powell showed up at my SC property to do whatever it was they were really doing of which I was misled. Let me be very clear. No one should make the mistake of harming so much as a hair on the head of my children or grandson. Hey, Fraudcock, you have a big lying mouth. You are invited back to Tomotley for one last visit with me, you Deep State scum bag. My puppies would be happy to be present at our final meeting."
Well I admit it's not healthy being more concerned about an ex-president than your own kids. A billionaire ex-president who's living the life of riley at a Hispano-Moresque style club resort-residence in Palm Beach Florida, while surrounded by a dozen sycophants and yes men who bow to his every wish, along with secret service agents who are there to protect him, and cooks, waiters, and butlers who are there to serve him. Yeah because he needs someone who has enough problems of their own to care about him
Trump's antics are like episodes of the TV show Dallas where all the smug, wealthy in-laws are battling each other. Lin Wood is clearly upset about people saying his kids don't contact him. Among other quarrels, he is in a fight with Trump's hero, Rittenhouse and his spokesperson, Hancock, over the bail money that Rittenhouse wants. Hancock was seen with Rittenhouse when he visited Trump at Mar-a-Lago in November. Let them fight with one another.
Watergate prosecutor pours cold water on Trump's hopes the Supreme Court will save him excerpt: "Speaking with CNN host Paula Reid, Akerman didn't offer up much hope for the embattled former president. "With Nixon with Watergate, [the court] ordered him to hand over materials and other subpoena materials," Reid began. "We learned that Trump has lost twice now in federal court. There's been a big debate will the Supreme Court even take up this case and, if they do, what will they rule? How do you see this playing out over the next couple weeks and months?" "You're right," the attorney replied. 'There are two courts, lower courts, District Court, and Circuit Court of Appeals in New York, basically issued very extensive opinions turning Trump down on the issues that he's raised. But ultimately, there are really two issues at play here: one is executive privilege. Trump is claiming that he has the right to assert executive privilege over the documents on January 6th. The problem with that argument is that the Supreme Court has already spoken to executive privilege back in 1974, when they ordered Nixon to produce his tapes.""
In addition to the case in 1974, Nixon also lost his case in the Supreme Court in 1977. Nixon v. General Services Administration - Wikipedia excerpt: "Richard Nixon filed a lawsuit in a federal district court claiming that the Act violated the principle of separation of powers, the principle of presidential privilege, Nixon's personal privacy, his First Amendment right of association, and further asserted that it amounted to a constitutionally prohibited Bill of Attainder."
If Trump and his pals are not held accountable and prosecuted, the problem of delusional Republicans will not go away.
Maybe, like Don Trump Jr., they lost their father’s contact info. Then again, maybe not. Sounds like a threat.
Trump has officially announced his event at Mar-a-Lago on the one-year anniversary of his insurrection at the Capitol. He's expected to continue his lie that the election was stolen from him and his lie that the only person who died that day was Ashli Babbitt, which he will continue to blame on the Capitol police. The cruelty of Trump's Jan. 6 press conference excerpt: "Simple decency would suggest that he pick another day. But Trump likely chose that day precisely because he wants to rip the scab off the wound to fire up his base and fuel the hate machine in the process. Unfortunately, he’ll probably succeed on both counts. Self-awareness and introspection never have been Trump’s strong suits. When he holds his news conference on Jan. 6, however, he may want to ponder why that date has a special meaning — not just for Americans affected by the events in Washington on that date last year but also for hundreds of millions of people around the world for another reason. Jan. 6 is known as Epiphany for the world’s 2.6 billion Christians. It not only commemorates the visit of the three wise men to the birthplace of Jesus but also is known as Old Christmas or Little Christmas and recognized as the 12th day of Christmas. The day is truly sacred to billions of people. And many Americans will witness Trump, who says he is a Christian, dishonoring that celebration once again for his own selfish motivations."
Trump asking the Supreme Court to keep information secret about his attempt at overthrowing Congress that is needed by Congress to prevent Trump from overthrowing Congress is a tall order to fill. It's like Nixon trying to keep information secret about a criminal plot he was involved in that tried to thwart Democrats in the next presidential election. It's similar to Mo Brooks asking the U.S. DOJ to protect him as a Congressman from suits related to Trump's riot at the Capitol that he helped incite while in his personal capacity and outside his function in Congress. Watergate prosecutor pours cold water on Trump's hopes the Supreme Court will save him excerpt: "The Supreme Court has basically been limited to diplomatic, military, and national security matters," he elaborated. "It certainly doesn't cover a plot against the government to overthrow its normal processes. So it's very unlikely that Trump is going to succeed on that." "Both opinions, the lower court opinions basically pointed out that in the face of Joe Biden's very detailed analysis as to why executive privilege does not apply and Trump has provided absolutely zero facts to explain why it does apply," Akerman added. "So it's very unlikely that that issue is really going to go anywhere."
In Trump's case, it's not an issue of protecting national security by keeping information secret. It's a matter of protecting national security by allowing disclosure of information that will help prevent more threats by Trump and others like him. Trump himself is the threat.
Knowing Trump, he will use his January 6 anniversary gathering to not only continue lies about his insurrection but to promote another personal venture of his, such as a new golf course.
He could have other surprises, such as having someone like Rittenhouse or Lindell at the event or relatives of Ashli Babbitt.
Clinton lost executive privilege claims twice, while in office, in the Supreme Court related to the Lewinsky inquisition by Ken Starr. The issue with Clinton was a far cry from Trump trying to overthrow Congress and the 2020 election, an event which he claims he has executive privilege, while out of office, to prevent the release of related documents.
