Donald Trump says he expects to be arrested on Tuesday

[Chomper Higgot]

I wonder if Trump is the only one facing indictment in this case.

 

A real life game of ‘Prisoner’ Dilemma’ would be fun.

[bendejo]

So he says none of this happened, fake news etc.  Then he tries to sue her for breech of contract.

OK, in which Countries would Donald Trump have been executed and for what crimes ?

Many counties with a fine history of culture and fashion. For crimes against makeup and hairdressers.

It is certainly ironic that he used to encourage the "lock her up" chants at his rallies in 2016.  Can't wait to see his mugshot.

Trump was the best president the USA has had for a long time.

He started no wars, killed few foreign nationals, no bank failures.

No sex crimes like the Clintons and Kennedys.

Yet everyone hates him ................why?

 

Seems hurting a few liberals feelings is a major crime!

Biden gets elected, Russia promptly invades Ukraine, banks fail.

If Trump ha been elected for a second term, those events probably wouldn't have happened.

I think Trump's softness on Russia, and his attempts to weaken NATO, likely emboldened Putin. He saw an elderly US president and disunited Europe and thought he could push the war through but wrong. 

Trump and the Republicans weakened the regulations for midsize banks meaning things like this week were much more likely to happen. Then there's the trains...

100 other reasons not to like Trump besides his abrasive personality ..  I think the world breathed a sigh of relief that Biden made sure he only got one term or who knows what was next..

Quite. So to prove Dominion correct and Trump wrong the "discovery" must allow forensic audits of places like Fulton county to make 100% sure the result was legit, right? Ah, no. Different rules for different parties in a politicized and weaponized DOJ.

I believe they have had all sorts of investigations and recounts in Fulton county done by republicans and came up with NO evidence of anything that did not say the election results were and are accurate...try and keep up.....or maybe you want the Ninjas to go to Georgia like they did in AZ and waste every ones time and resources to come up with NOTHING in their "forensic audit"...when will trumpers ever get it through their kool aide induced comas to realize that trump LOST the election.   60 court cases recount after recount over and over and over and yet they still cling to same old tired lie that somehow the election was rigged.  Pitiful. 

 

If you in your infinite conspiracy theory wisdom have any hard real evidence that the election was rigged you should lay it on the table for all to see ...you will be a hero to the kool aide crew and probably get your very own show on Fox where you can promote lies on air and then text to your fellow Foxers about what a total pile of BS the "rigged election" truly was/is.

Your "attempts to weaken NATO" claim is nonsense IMO. He tried to get them to pay their fair share as most did not. What did he do specifically to "weaken" it?

 

One doesn't have to like Trump to think he had some good ideas, like the wall, that he was stopped from doing.

Not starting wars was pretty good too.

How long do you need Biden to be in office before he becomes responsible?

(Obviously Biden can't be responsible for anything as he's sunk so far into dementia he doesn't know where he is or what day it is)

 

[LosLobo]

Trump has obviously leaked and exaggerated a possible pending arrest to muster sympathy and support from the base.

 

The Don mafioso must think he is guilty and may soon be held accountable by his peers for this crime.

 

He used the same playbook for the Mar-a-lago stolen document affair.

 

His supporters seem to forget the fact that Cohen was acting on the Don's behalf when he was sentenced to three years jail during the Don's reign over the DOJ. 

 

The Don even put Cohen back in jail when he was furloughed for health reasons, to stop Cohen from incriminating him.

 

It beggars belief that Trump claims Biden's DOJ is being weaponised for political reasons.

Haven't you heard the news about Trump being acquitted of attempted coup charges ?

   Or are you just ignoring the legal process and the judiciary findings and finding him to be guilty anyway ?

   You are behaving similar to Russia, China and North Korea and nay dictator : Ignore the legal process and the facts and just keep repeating the same old made up things .

  The so called coup is just in your imagination , it isn't a fact 

No, Trump has not been acquitted of attempted coup charges. Not that he would be charged with that. He is being investigated on various grounds for intentionally promoting violence and the invasion of the capitol.  And, no, he has not been acquitted of his alleged criminal responsibility in regard to that. Care to acknowledge you got that wrong?

Biden is somewhat responsible and ideally would have reversed the banking laws. But the historical context is important and it is one thing to not have foreseen it coming and another to actually take actions to make it much more likely. 

One man is responsible for the Ukraine war and that is Putin. Biden is responsible for dealing with the implications and, though no war can be deemed a success by definition, he has done well in unifying most of the world against the menace that is Putin. The work of Biden and others has left Putin and Russia severely weakened though there's still a lot to do.

IMO it's quite simple really. He was an outsider that threatened their cosy club, so he has to be destroyed as an example to any other that wants to do that.

How many politicians are there in or used to be in federal government that never had a proper job in their lives yet became very wealthy? Follow the money for the answers.

Right. An outsider who threatened the wealthy by cutting taxes on them and appointing to the judiciary judges who favor corporate interests at the expense of workers. What was his plan? To stuff the wealthy so full of cash that they would explode?

A man gets blackmailed by a woman, then the blackmailed - not the blackmailer - get indicted. This is because the blackmailer is of the female denomination of course.

 

In a non-broken justice system the blackmailer is the one who gets indicted.

First of all, who said she was going to say anything? Trump just throwing his money around to try and cover his a$$.

You are of course aware that Russia paused the Ukraine invasion they started under Democrat Obama while Trump was POTUS and resumed under Democrat Biden? Isn't it funny that Putin was scared of his own puppet. Almost as if Trump was NOT Putins poodle/puppet after all??

 

Maybe if we shared your version of alternative reality we might be aware of that. But those of us who dwell in the real world know that this is false. We know that the Ukrainians were desperately pleading for the weapons that Congress had authorized be sent to them to use against the the Russian supported secession.. Trump ignored their pleas for months. It took threats from Congress to take the issue to court and a meeting with Zelensky to get Trump to release those weapons. This was the meeting in which Trump asked Zelensky to do him a favor and investigate Biden.

How can he sue them for making false allegations? If it were possible he would have suesd serial liar and fantasist Schiff for lying about having rock solid evidence of collusion in the impeachment hoax #1. Or the likes of Maddow who for years made defamatory false allegations against Trump alleging him to be a tool of Putin.

 No, it seems Republicans can not sue lefties for false and defamatory smears, unlike for example Dominion who are able to sue Republicans on unproven charges that thanks to no valid id needed to vote can never be proven one way or t'other. Welcome to justice in biden's woke america

Your comments are very confused. Dominion need prove no such thing about voter ID. Even if that was a valid complaint, and to date no state investigations have uncovered anything more than a handful of fraudulent ID cases., that has nothing to do with whether Dominion machines were in some ways rigged, And given the nature of the accusations against Dominion such charges  tying it to Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, and the machinatios of George Soros and the Clintons, there's plenty of evidence of defamation. You know, reckless disregard of the truth.

Bush, Obama and Trump pushed for NATO to pay more. Trump pushed harder and you could say that is fair. But there seemed to be constant bickering from him about NATO and little praise or constructive ideas for reform beyond more payments. That takes a toll over time. 

In 2019 German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Emmanuel Macron, in turn, suggested that this might be the right time to establish an indigenous European Defence Union among Europeans to complement NATO. “The times when we could rely on others are over,” Merkel added. 

A leader needs to not only criticise, even if sometimes the criticism is warranted, but maintain steadfast support and come up with better solutions. I don't think he achieved that and I think 4 more years would have lead to a further weakened NATO. Add to that his tepid criticism or actual support for some of NATO's potential or actual adversaries.

I wish they had, but it was likely a non starter as the cost of establishing a force capable of stopping Russia without America would be crippling.

Far as I can see it's mainly US taxpayers that are supporting Ukraine- tell me if I'm wrong.

Trump in prison?

 Who wants who to protest? IMO the left want Trump supporters out and riled up for this latest attempt to hobble the king, and of course antifa and the usual loot-Nike-to-protest-slavery 1,000 yrs-ago mob will be out to cause mayhem. I think they are hoping for violence which they can twist and censor footage of to falsely and dishonestly blame on Trump again. Maybe more sham committees with no defence allowed to keep a sense of perspective?

 

This will not end well.

I remember when all sorts of predictions were made about how the dire and violent consequences that would follow from the FBI search of Mar a Lago. As it turns out, Trump supporters couldn't even muster a decent sized protest there.

It was also prophesied that the search would have dire consequences for the Democrats in the midterm. How did that turn out?

Let's assume that this deal was, as you aver, blackmail. So Trump has been shown to be susceptible to blackmail. What about if a blackmailer didn't want money but something else from Trump when he was President? Would he have caved in to those demands, too?

This may come as a surprise to some!

 

The US and the total for rest of the world are virtual the same for support for Ukraine, based on commitment dollars.

 

The US only ranks fifth in GDP.

 

So the burden on the US is in fact less than some other countries.

Trump is playing everyone. This fat slob is using every means possible to manipulate people.  Look at the timeline:

 

1) Trumps says he will be arrested for buying sex from a porn star.

 

2) Trump's online legionnaires come out of the woodwork to explain how this is going get him elected president, because suburban women will now flock to his campaign.

 

3) The REAL point. Trump uses this event to attack DeSantis for not getting out front and defending Trump for paying off the prostitute/porn star.

 

4) Finally, Trump walks it all back. Mission accomplished.
