Post-Trump: Biden President Elect II (Trump tantrums, riots etc)

But Yank. is there not an argument that he was decompensating from.. or before.. Day One of his 'presidency' ?
To all sane persons...the man was in Cloud Cuckoo Land from way before his Presidency.

Given Trump's majority at the time.. How were the Dems supposed to orchestrate such a thing?

Surely leaving him to destroy his own credibility. (such as it ever was..) was the least dangerous way forward?


I agree that he was nutso all along, but he was a high-functioning nutso. I think he could have been pushed to the breaking point.
 
In my view one of the greatest acts of political malpractice in recent years is the failure of the Democratic Party to run a psy-ops campaign to take advantage of Trump's Narcissistic Personality Disorder and push him into totally decompensating.
Which is what the Lincoln Project tried to do - use GOP tactics on the GOP.
 
He's probably too chicken to take the stand. It would not be a good look, taking the 5th or refusing to answer on 'executive privilege' to everything, and I don't think he could pull that off anyway. Best for him if he stays chicken. In a real court, if you're subpoenaed to testify and don't go, it's contempt of court. Don't know if they could or would try 'contempt of Congress' on Trump in such case. Probably take a firefight to arrest him....

My guess is that Trump is too much of a grandstander not to take the stand, however smart it would be to stay away. It appears that he wants to focus his defence on his belief that the election was fraudulent, which places the GOP in an awkward situation. It's one thing for the GOP to refuse to impeach Trump on the technical grounds that, as he is an ex-President, impeachment would be unconstitutional. It's quite another to have Trump state that he is still President.

When have the GOP ever been guided by what's right or moral? They will simply look away or find some way to avoid confronting the elephant in the room - Trump
 
There's much I cannot grasp about the USA's legal system, but surely, Trump and the GOP can't have it both ways; if they're saying he can't be impeached and prosecuted by the senate because he's no longer a president, he can then be prosecuted in the courts for his crimes?
 
Well, yes. Actually, the non-Trump GOPers should agree with Trump that he is still President, then tell him that, accordingly, he can't run for a third term in 2024.

Yes, as he's no longer President he no longer has Executive Privilege and can be tried in court. State prosecutors are probably getting their cases prepared right now.
 
Trump taking the stand, bring it on. Something in there about the lawyer defending himself having a fool for a client.

Trump went one better with Rudi and the Kraken woman; a fool with two fools as lawyers. Both of whom are now being sued.
 
She's been out-weirded by Marjorie Taylor Greene, with her 'Jewish lasers from space caused forest fires' theory.
 
Remember the point for most of the GOP Senators is to avoid having a vote against Trump on their record and a potential future primary from the right. Which is doubly annoying because the whole point of the Senate and six year terms is they are meant to be above this sort of thing.
 
There's clearly a competition going on Stateside to find the wackiest weirdo:

'The Wisconsin pharmacist accused of tampering with almost 600 doses of Moderna's coronavirus vaccine, thus rendering them ineffective, appears to be a prolific conspiracy theorist, the Daily Beast reported on Sunday.

Information included in a search warrant application filed by personnel at the FBI—which was recently unsealed—suggested that 46-year-old Steven Brandenburg readily communicated his beliefs to at least one colleague at Advocate Aurora Health Systems in Grafton, a small town located roughly 25 miles north of Milwaukee.

The documents identified Brandenburg's colleague as Sarah Sticker, a pharmacy technician who found a box of unrefrigerated Moderna COVID-19 vaccines during her early morning shift on December 26 and later reported the incident to a supervisor. The COVID-19 immunizations, which protect against infections with the novel respiratory disease, become spoiled when storage environments rise above a certain temperature.

FBI authorities paraphrased Sticker's comments during an interview pertaining to Brandenburg's case in the unsealed warrant application. The technician reportedly told interviewers that "Brandenburg was very engaged in conspiracy theories."

"Some of the conspiracy theories Brandenburg told Sticker about included: the earth is flat; the sky is not real, rather it is a shield put up by the Government to prevent individuals from seeing God; and Judgement Day is coming," the document read. "Sticker advised Brandenburg communicated his conspiracy theories to Sticker via text message."

People carrying a lethal virus and others carrying a lethal ideology. Now watch as millions of dollars pour in for his legal defence. We are already ****ed.

Ivanka thinks so.
