The Trump Presidency : Year IV
There’s a rumor that Pence’s campaign is about to come to an end, as is his political career. Supposedly a gay male prostitute is claiming to have had a multi-year relationship with him and claims to have proof. Of course this is the internet, so who knows?

Who else is ready for the GOP to declare Trump the candidate and cancel the rest of the garbage debates. He's the clear winner by vast margins in most states and he's what they people want. It's ridiculous at this point.

Donald Trump indictment: Jack Smith flags Glock stunt to federal judge as possible violation of release

https://www.washingtonexaminer...ck-smith-glock-stunt

Special counsel Jack Smith is calling on the federal judge overseeing former President Donald Trump's 2020 election subversion case to urgently install a gag order, flagging several social media incidents he believes warrant restrictions on the former president.

Smith said in a court filing on Friday to U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan that Trump should not be permitted to "obtain the benefits of his incendiary public states" and then "avoid accountability" through "feign[ed] retraction." He was referring to Trump's appearance at a gun store in South Carolina on Monday, during which he was videotaped holding a custom Glock.



Trump's spokesman Steven Cheung posted a video to X, formerly Twitter, saying, "President Trump purchases a @Glock Inc. in South Carolina." However, Cheung later deleted the post and said in a statement to the Washington Examiner that Trump "wanted to buy one" but did not confirm the purchase.

However, Smith believes the video caught Trump "potentially violating his conditions of release, and tried to walk that back in a similar fashion." While under a federal indictment, Trump is allowed to possess existing firearms but may not receive new ones.

"The defendant either purchased a gun in violation of the law and his conditions of release, or seeks to benefit from his supporters' mistaken belief that he did so," Smith wrote.

Smith also stated that Trump's attacks on Gen. Mark Milley, outgoing chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and a prosecutor in Smith's office, are evidence to support imposing a gag order.

"In sum, the Court may enter an order in this case restricting the parties' extrajudicial statements if the statements present a 'substantial likelihood of material prejudice' as long as the Court's order is narrowly tailored to the objections of preventing comments that are likely to influence the actual outcome of trial or are likely to prejudice the venire," Smith said.

Chutkan scheduled a hearing for 10 a.m. on Oct. 16 to hear arguments on the gag order request. The trial is scheduled to begin on March 4, 2024, the day before Super Tuesday, a fact that the defense says is a reason to dismiss the gag order, arguing it would censor a presidential candidate during the 2024 election.

Trump's team has pushed back against Smith's claims that Trump's statements have intimidated potential witnesses and "it is absurd to suggest the prosecution and the Court are ‘intimidated’ by critical social media posts.” The former president is known for posting inflammatory remarks on social media, including calling out prosecutors and judges in his indictments for being politically motivated or "radical" liberals.

Donald Trump: Shoot Shoplifters
quote:
Trump said that if elected, he would do everything in his power — "including sending as many federal assets as required to restore safety and peace" — for cities that have seen what he called a breakdown of law and order.

"We will immediately stop all of the pillaging and theft," Trump said. "Very simply, if you rob a store, you can fully expect to be shot as you are leaving that store. Shot!"

The former president also said "we have the greatest law enforcement in the world" and that they "know what to do, but they aren't allowed to do anything because of incompetent politicians."

"The word that ‘they shoot you’ will get out within minutes, and our nation within one day will be an entirely different place," Trump said.

"There must be retribution for theft, and destruction, and the ruination of our country," he added.

A friend of mine grew up in Jerusalem. He said the penalties for crime were very severe. He stated that no one locked their doors, because that type of crime was extremely rare due to the penalties.

Later he became a policeman in San Francisco, where he arrested some persons who had 35 felonies on their record. Minimal penalties, well why not do more crime?

Yesterday, former Fox News correspondent Tucker Carlson posted a deadly serious interview with constitutional scholar Victor Davis Hanson, and sparks flew.

CLIP: Tucker Carlson and Victor Davis Hanson (33:50).

The two men framed their discussion around the first day yesterday in Trump’s trial in the New York “Business Fraud” Case. It was presided over by Judge Engoran, who last week issued a remarkable summary judgment order finding that, as a matter of law, Trump committed fraud by “overstating” the value of his very-difficult-to-estimate real estate properties on financial documents Trump used to obtain bank loans.

Loans that were all paid back, on time, with interest.

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

above interview w Victor Davis Hanson should be wide spread. Hanson, as usual, is right on

I agree, excellent interview. A must view for all.

And Hanson is correct, next year is a watershed, make-or-break moment in American history. I agree with Hanson- not only does Trump need to have a solid victory in 2024, but the House and Senate need to be overwhelmingly won by Republicans so that reversing the damage, and pushing forward a sound U.S. policy can proceed without pushback from Democrats

This could go in several threads,

https://www.breitbart.com/clip...f-maga-cult-members/

Hillary Clinton:

"so many of those extremists, those MAGA extremists, take their marching orders from Donald Trump, who has no credibility left by any measure. He’s only in it for himself. He’s now defending himself in civil actions and criminal actions.

When do they break with him? You know, because at some point, you know, maybe there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the cult members . But something needs to happen.”

DEMs are drunk w power. You think of all the terrible things governments have done to their citizens over the last hundred years, and we are experiencing terrible abuses of power right now.

This is what I think is the most interesting part of the CNN, Hillary Deprogramming interview:

"Whatever the reason, you know, make America great again was a bid for nostalgia to return to a place where people could be in charge of their lives, feel empowered, say what they want, insult whoever came in their way. And that was really attractive to a significant portion of the Republican base. So, it is like a cult.
And somebody has to break that momentum."

She actually said that, and wonders why Trump won the election over her!
