A story about a pathetic man's downfall [34 Felony Convictions]

Featured Replies

Been meaning to post this since Sunday. My apologies if this isn’t as brief and succinct as I’d like it to be. Please bear with me.

Trump held a rally in South Dakota on Friday, picking up an endorsement from Kristi Noem. Most of the articles about it talk about Noem’s potential as a possible running mate. But there’s part of Trump’s speech that’s not getting a lot of coverage. They opened with it on Meet the Press on Sunday. Trump was ranting on about how his legal troubles are all about Biden attacking his political opponent, how he’s done nothing wrong, he has the right to say there was election fraud and it was stolen because everyone knows that’s true and “free speech!” No doubt his lawyers encouraged him to keep saying “free speech!” And there was a little bit of a vibe that he knows he’s lying about election fraud but he has the right to keep saying it because “free speech!”

Anyway, and this is where they started on MTP, Trump goes on to say, “That means if I’m elected and somebody wants to run against me, I call my Attorney General and say, ‘Listen, indict him!’”

Okay, sure, Trump is saying he’ll continue to try to use his Attorney General to lock up his opponents just like he did when he was in office. But if he wins, why would anyone be running against him again? He’d be in his 2nd term. He couldn’t run again. You could just dismiss it and say he means any of his political enemies, and certainly you’d be right that he’ll do that too. But I believe he’s saying out loud that if he gets back into office again he has no intention of leaving. He thinks he should be treated like Putin and Kim. He’s said that out loud too.

That was all they covered on Meet the Press. In his speech he continued, first speaking for his imaginary AG. “Well, he hasn’t done anything that we know…” To which imaginary Trump interrupts, “I don’t know…Indict him on income tax evasion! You’ll figure it out.”

Again, Trump apologists will dismiss it as just talk and he won’t try to “run” for a 3rd term. I say that’s ridiculous and he’s telling us. You know he hasn’t gone to the trouble to endorse Republicans all over the country who will help him do it just so they can wind up helping someone else. And you know he’ll make the argument that he deserves another term because of the one that was stolen from him. No way in hell that wouldn’t happen.

Anyway, here’s the full episode of Meet the Press (Chuck Todd’s last, btw). The relevant part is right at the beginning.

You can find the full speech and some other stuff from the South Dakota rally, in case you have the stomach for it, below. The quote in question begins at 1:09:56.

Perhaps -- and it's a scary thought, no doubt. And I could see lots of folks who vote for him going along with the idea of leaving Trump in past a 2nd term without seeing the long-term ramifications or blatant pissing on the Constitution that would represent. By the time they come around, Trump would be entrenched in office -- like cancer.

Or, this is simply so he can get in office to pardon himself and all of his cronies of their myriad crimes and he'll serve out the four years and be done. I can't imagine he'd live to far beyond a second term anyways.

I don't believe a third term is possible simply because there aren't enough states that would allow him on the ballot a third time because he doesn't meet the qualifications for office in that state.  One of the qualifications to run for president is that you can't have served 2 full terms, and there are enough blue/purple states that would respect that enough that they would wholly disqualify him from even being on the ballot.  If he's only running in the deep red states, he has no ability to get to 270, and therefore no shot at a 3rd term.

I can be an optimistic dumbass though, so I could be wrong.

Your maths are correct.  However, there is already a plan in place where he resigns office a tad bit early so as not to have served two full terms.  The date varies from state to state in terms of when the deadline is to be placed atop the ballot.  But a willing VP (looking at you MIKE!) and some calendar massaging, and he's good to go in all but a handful of states.  

the best strategy, aside from the shitshow intraparty gossip from the Democrats, is to run Trump ragged for the next 14 months and just have him die already.  We'll deal with his 25mm psychotic base after that.  We've lots of land and lots of empty train cars in "red States."

You're assuming that things don't go sideways, wonky and get all fucked up.

I find it hard to believe that all the true patriots in this land would allow this bag of goo three terms as president.

In random thoughts... 

On Dec. 20, 2019, the President signed legislation amending the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, and raising the federal minimum age for sale of tobacco products from 18 to 21 years. This legislation (known as “Tobacco 21” or “T21”) became effective immediately, and it is now illegal for a retailer to sell any tobacco product—including cigarettes, cigars, and e-cigarettes—to anyone under 21.

I had no idea that happened under Trump. Glad to see it.

I've been wondering why the old adage of "Can fight for his country, but can't buy a beer" didn't morph into "Cigarettes are dangerous, give the 18 year old an AR-15 instead"?

It's baffling that an 18 yo can buy an assault rifle but not a pack of Kools.

Trump is never leaving office voluntarily even if there is a long term advantage. That’s ridiculous

I find it hard to believe they allowed him one. I find it hard to believe he’s allowed to run again after Jan 6. I find it hard to believe he’s not dangling from the end of a rope.

One thing you can never safely assume when it comes to Trump: “That can’t happen here.”

His face is melting 

Donald's face is melting in the dark
All the sour, orange icing flowing down
Someone left his face out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to spray it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh no!

Hinckley's out of prison isn't he?

When asked, Trump said he has no business attending this weekend’s  evangelical faith conference in Des Moines, and neither does Jesus.

It was a coup with extensive pre-planning and placement of pro-coup officials. In the lame duck period, Trump purged the Pentagon, AG and Defense Department, among others. Trump installed loyalists willing to bend/break rules that even Bill Barr wouldn't touch. Fucking Devin Nunes toady, and all around shitheel, Kash Patel was the Secretary of Defense's Chief of Staff. The new Secretary of Defense who took direct control of the D.C. National Guard, but only for January 5th and 6th. While the situation escalated, the National Guard was held up for critical hours before finally deploying. Mike Flynn's brother Charles helped delay the deployment

If Pelosi had accepted 10,000 troops, they would have been under the leadership of pro-Trump and pro-coup zealots. I don't know what would have happened, but the odds of something even more catastrophic happening would have been fairly high. 

Haha.  Not to mention Mitch McConnell shared authority over the Capitol police and security.

"I behaved so well."  Christ, he's seven.

Yeah, nothing is more Trumpy than to simultaneously shout "I'm the most powerful person in the world with supreme command" with "but Nancy should have fixed it" and not do a thing to diffuse the situation as it happened because "you don't really know what's happening until much, much later."

His followers are so fucking stupid, they think Jan 6 is a conspiracy where Nancy risked her life to make Donny look bad, as long as these people live in the conspiracy bubble there is no reasoning with them all peaceful interactions are a complete waste of time, they need prison time to A) break from the bubble (aka no Fox News) and B) ample time to think over their lives. Since prison without a crime is a dark path, we can still have zero pity in sentencing.

“I alone can fix it” and “I don’t take responsibility at all.”

Bonus points for “Nobody knew health care could be so complicated.”

Of course, he's probably assuming that MAGA won't read past the first line, which is pretty much assured.

Biden has the same stutter he's had this whole time. Trump sounds more and more like a rambling old man at the nursing home. I'm not talking about the crazy that he says, that's worse but been there the whole time, I mean his voice in general, way more gravely and slow than before. He's losing it completely.

Anybody have that clip of him earlier this month in South Dakota where he just stares off into the distance for literally 40 seconds without saying a word or really any gestures?  It was weird as shit, but I can't find a clip other than DVR.

Go back and watch him just from 2016.  He's had significant decline to the point SNL has to keep finding new people to play him.
