Have been saying since Jan. 6 that POTUS 45 will eventually be indicted and expatriate himself to a non-extradition country to avoid jail.  OF course even from Russia or China or any of the middle east countries, he can still spout off on socials to satisfy his followers/ devotees

Chayna doesn't like him much.

Since trump calls for the termination of the constitution I would call for the termination of trump (according to the law of course).

Again... CNN shows their bias by leaving out the entire context... Former President Trump called for the termination of the Constitution’s rules regarding elections to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election following the release of more detailed information about Twitter’s role in suppressing a story about Hunter Biden. “A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution,” Trump said in a Truth Social post. “Our great ‘Founders’ did not want, and would not condone, False & Fraudulent Elections!”

What has Hunter Biden to do with elections, he wasn't a candidate. What would be a valid reason to overturn the result of an election as there is no proof whatsoever that they were fraudulent.

CNN did not leave out anything. They posted verbatim, the entirety of Trump's remarks. While he prefaces it with his usual, totally debunked claims about election fraud, make no mistake about it - he is calling for the "termination" of the provisions of the US Constitution, all in the vain hope of him being reinstated as President. Which of course, is never, ever going to happen.

Of course, Hunter's Biden's laptop.  A story so questionable the author of the story wouldn't stand behind it.  Also, a story that was not about anyone running for office or in government.

 

Well if we're going to correct past wrongs by suspending the constitution let's start with a much greater wrong:  FBI Director Comey re-opening the Hillary Clinton email investigation days before the 2016 election.  That had far more impact on a much closer election than the laptop story.  We can erase the historical record of President Trump and all he did, including the Supreme Court nominations, and set things right by rewriting laws, appointments, and history to reflect Hillary Clinton winning.

Agree that Trump should just go hibernate somewhere so we can stop talking about him.  But he never shuts up.  And fact is he's the only declared candidate for POTUS in 2024 and GOP front runner.  So yeah, his nutty comments are still unfortunately news.

Doesn't mean that anti Trumpers need to post about him on as many posts as possible though. Boring reading the same hate posts over and over.

The comment was about twitthing's suppression of a story, not about Hunter per se. Did you miss that?

Thank you for clarifying that. I should have known better than to believe anything from that organisation.

Unfortunately even I get fooled by the anti Trump machine sometimes. I withdraw my earlier comments.

Trump commits political suicide?

Again.

 

Trump finally committed 'political suicide' with his latest 'stupid' comments: conservative (msn.com)

Quote

 

In a column for the highly conservative Hot Air, Republican speechwriter David Strom expressed his disgust at Donald Trump's call for "the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution" because he thinks the 2020 election was stolen from him.

As Strom sees it, the former president -- whom he believes has previously flirted with destroying his political career -- finally committed "political suicide" and will never recover.

Writing, "It’s like a social science experiment with 350 million participants.

IMO this is something that does not get mentioned enough.  It mainly shows how the government employees work in fear of the Republican establishment.  Comey himself said he did that out of fear of what the Republicans would do to him (and the former president did it to him anyway), but didn't seem to be fearful of the consequences of violating the rule. 

Second, Republicans can break the rules without consequence, but the Dems cannot; this can be fixed with a little spine and savvy on the part of the Dems, but don't hold your breath.  I think it is pretty clear that the "spine" of the 1/6 investigation was a Republican.

I see.  You consider Skipalongcassidy a reliable source, but not CNN.  Or do you have another source that shows that Trump "only" wants to suspend the Constitution in regards to elections, as if that wasn't bad enough?

What amazes me is how many people actually believe what does ConMan is selling? He always has been a ConMan. He will never change. He lies more than he tells the truth and yet people support him some believable. I guess there’s a lot of ignorant people that live in America these days.

I read the entire story in more than one media source... what is left out of every one of the left leaning media is that Trump was saying that fraud should be a reason in itself when it comes to all rules etc. to change those rules... he did not say throw out the constitution... that is not the issue.

I do not know if the 2020 election was stolen or not - none of us do with any certainty - but we have the right to believe whatever we want, it wont change anything.

 

Trump saying it was stolen is his opinion, but he cannot change anything.

 

However, anything from CNN is not worth reading. Are CNN publishing all the details of all the democrats saying the 2016 election was stolen  ? Nope. 

 

Want to publish Trumps comments, fine, but please level it up with democrats same claims from 2016

There are none so blind as those that can not see and none so deaf as those who do not listen.  You have surely been drinking the kool-aid.  His statements are made and published in many publications. Again here is what he said:

 

learn to read

 

https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/donald-trump-terminate-constitution-election-fraud-truth-social-1234641097/

 

“Do you throw the Presidential Election Results of 2020 OUT and declare the RIGHTFUL WINNER, or do you have a NEW ELECTION? A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution,” Trump wrote in a post on the social network Truth Social. He further alleged that “Big Tech” was working closely with Democrats. “Our great ‘Founders’ did not want, and would not condone, False & Fraudulent Elections!”

 

So did he not advocate for terminating the constitution in his statement, which is verbatim above, or is it misinformation? He believes it should be terminated in his view because he believes there was fraud in the election because stories were silenced. A story which had no bearing on the now president of the US, but on his son.  Guess if your running for a position and someone wants to malign you by dragging in family then it's OK in your view.....

 

Politics is an ugly business and Trump has played his part in silencing critics and then paying off others....Stormy Daniel's comes to mind.

The reason CNN is not alleging it is because nobody is claiming it. The closest allegation to fraud would be Comey putting his thumb on the scale. You allege fraud in 2016 so put up a link where anyone claimed significant fraud.

Sad, sad attempt at both-sidesism. A handful of Democrats in the House of Representatives objected to the election results. And they did not have the support of the 2016 Democratic presidential candidate. And you know who gaveled those Democrats down? Joe Biden. Whereas in 2020 139 Republicans in the House rejected the elections results. That's about 3/4 of the total Republican members. And this may come as news to you, but they did have the support of the 2020 Republican candidate. Quite strong support, as I recall.

Almost a full time job tackling the rampant misinformation here. 

 

Contrary to your extremely false claim, Joe Biden himself called Donald Trump an "illegitimate President". Most of the democrat power players did. You know this, I have pointed it out to you before on several occasions.

I'm not finding any allegation by Biden of electoral fraud there. Maybe he's referring to Comey? Or Benghazi!

Could you kindly point out any evidence that the 2020 election was fraudulent? What's that? You can't?

 

The Hunter Biden thing is a complete misdirection. Apples and oranges. Red Herring. But you go ahead and keep on supporting that disgraced loser. It's your prerogative.
