President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Unlike Jim Jones or Adolf Hitler, Trump is such a blatantly obvious con artist that nobody with a brain should fall for his act. And yet he's proven time and time again, whether with financiers or racist rednecks, there are gullible and dumb people who believe him.

Art of the Deal? BS. It's more like Art of the Con.

That alone scares the crap out of me.

 

As does the United States.

The two are mirror images.

We only like dissidents who expose shit in OTHER countries.

If Ivan Snowdensky was jailed in Russia for doing what Snowden did, we'd sanction Russia for "human rights abuses."

 

Of course not. And while he probably can and probably will pardon himself for any and all federal crimes he ever may have committed in his life, he cannot pardon himself in advance for anything.

 

Trump doesn't even have a human head anymore, it's almost like the shape of a cow's skull.

 

Sick Dick Morris is on Newmax saying he knows there’s fraud. That’s convincing.

 

The United States doesn’t have a negative net worth. The US has a negative cash flow. America’s assets exceed its liabilities. Trump’s assets, whatever ever they are, does not exceed his liabilities.

 

I think that there is room for some discussion about Snowden and Reality Winner. I don't claim to be completely cognizant of the facts in either case, but there seems to have been some motivation toward exposing governmental abuse or overreach.

Assange can rot.

 

Those hookers aren't going to pay for themselves.

 

there will always be people convinced they can ride his coattails long enough to get theirs and then bail before it turns south on them. Few pull it off

 

Yes, there's fraud. Only way a known con man like Trump could win so many states.

 

How did the Biden/Chavez algorithms embedded in Dominion Voting Systems computers fail to deliver Florida for Biden?

 

It is going to be a really interesting thing to see how the Biden admin. handles Trump.

Leaving aside the legal issues, will Trump, as an ex-president, still receive security briefings? Will he still be entitled to the secure communications network Exes have access to? Still be able to use the presidential guest home in DC and so forth and so on.

Trump will, of course, cry bloody murder if he doesn't get everything he think he's entitled to. So will the right wind media but, part of the bargain of being an Ex, is slipping off into the shadows, engage in philanthropy and generally adhere to the principle of one president at one time.

Trump seems incapable of that. So any inch of deference, will mean he tries to take a foot.

It is going to be a hard calculation to make but Trump's actions might make it easier.

Also, while Biden has a long list of things to do once he takes office, a first day action is to turn over the secret server Trump used to stash communications on to the DOJ.

There's got to be some boy scout-type career prosecutors who would love to take a look at such things.
