Trump to announce 2024 presidential bid Tuesday, top aide confirms

"President Trump is going to announce on Tuesday that he is running for president," Miller told former Trump aide Steve Bannon on his popular "War Room" podcast.

"It's gonna be a very professional, very buttoned-up announcement," he added.

Miller said Trump told him, "there doesn't need to be any question, of course I am running."

2016 for Trump was a stunt. After listening to DeSantis speak it's clear the GOP needs a new voice. I only hope Trump backs down.

Not as long as the threat of a criminal prosecution hangs over him. Let's just hope it mobilizes the GOP voters to support him again.

So no more defense money will be coming from the RNC, great news.

That was my attempt at humor.

Sorry I don't share the sentiment that people with disabilities should be the target of jokes and not be part of modern society.

 

But this seems to be a common trait among some conservatives.

 

Obviously, the majority of Pennsylvanians respected Fetterman's abilities enough to make him Senator.

 

Roosevelt was crippled with polio as a child, yet he served as President for four terms. In fact, he was the longest serving President in US history.

I would qualify that in my experience more traditional conservatives are reasonably humane towards people with health challenges (while usually resisting spending public money to help enough) but more modern MAGA types being an obviously fascist movement have a greater tendency towards mockery, bullying, cruelty, intolerance, and downright nastiness.

If one has suffered a recent stroke and continues to run for senator, then it's fair game. Would it be wrong to mock a blind person who wants to be a pilot?

Belief that one is of a superior group be it gender, ethnicity, class or ability has been a common thread among the ultra conservatives. 

 

Aryan Ideology from early last century comes to mind.

Not the same equivalence.

 

I suggest that it would still be morally wrong to mock anyone with a disability.

 

Fetterman received a medical clearance from his physician that he was fit to serve.

 

It would be impossible for a blind person to get a medical clearance to become a pilot.

 

Many US politicians who have suffered strokes are still in office.

That's Senator Fetterman Sir to you.

I am confident that if it turns out that he can't perform the job because of his stroke that he will eventually resign to be replaced by a pick by his democratic Governor.

That is unlikely to happen but Fetterman did flip the seat regardless.

Trump has already scammed his supporters out of tens if not hundreds of millions which he's mostly held on to.

You're right. The amount of comic relief that guy has provided is immense and he doesn't get enough credit for that!

Mock someone for having a dream?

 

Yes, it would be wrong.

You're absolutely right, yet you complain constantly about us mocking trump, and if there ever was a better analogy about trump's "unfitness" to lead than "a blind person who wants to be a pilot" I haven't seen it. Well done!

Somehow I doubt you couldn't care less, your obsession with his stroke symptoms seem to keep you fully amused.

So in your view anyone who has a disability is fair game to be treated badly, name called and is unfit to run for a position in the Government?  Really? What planet do you live on......

[ThailandRyan]

He is also threatening to burn it all down.......this man has seriously got a case of bruised ego.

    i worked for Fed Gov many years and I had to be fit for duty. Listening to Fetterman speak it was obvious he isn't FFD.

If he has used it for personal use he will be fried with a violation of the campaign finance law and rules which will also end up with him being jailed.  I remember back in the early 2000's a series of congressman and so on being indicted and jailed for doing this as well as other crimes. Then you had the recent one being arrested and convicted "Duncan Hunter" and there are many more:

Since when were you his doctor?

 

Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman “has no work restrictions and can work full duty in public office” as the Democratic Senate candidate recovers from a debilitating stroke, his primary care physician said.

I think you need to be recertified for or your neurology practice. Just because someone has problem generating speech doesn't mean they have a problem with thinking.
