Do you seriously think any one of those assholes gives a two bit shit whether or not my deli oven roast cold cut turkey breast is now $14.99/lb instead of $11.99?

People who doubt Trump's ability to get elected ignore the fact that the man is extremely popular today compared to 2016 and 2020, almost folk-hero status. At the Miami Grand Prix, it is not a paid appearance or a political rally, yet he can generate huge enthusiasm in any event anywhere, anytime.

How much longer are they going to stretch out this farce? Trump strikes me as someone who learns from his mistakes, hasn’t he dug up all the dirt on these backstabbing lawyers? When is he going to level them? "Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor.” Robert A.

Merchan is a leftist judge, threatening Trump with jail time. He wants to but won't, because throwing Trump in jail would be a mistake, as it would only increase his chance of being re-elected POTUS. Merchan is pretty damn sure aware of this, imo. Trump says jail time to defend free speech is 'sacrifice' he's willing to make By Emma Colton | Fox News Published May 6, 2024 5:20pm EDT Former President Trump said he'd make the "sacrifice" of going to jail to defend free speech amid his trial in Manhattan where the 45th president is under a gag order that he has slammed as "unconstitutional." "I have to watch every word I tell you people. You ask me a question, a simple question I'd like to give it, but I can't talk about it because this judge has given me a gag order and [says] you'll go to jail if you violate it," Trump said in remarks outside the courtroom Monday afternoon. "And frankly, you know what? Our Constitution is much more important than jail. It's not even close. I'll do that sacrifice any day." Earlier Monday, presiding Judge Juan Merchan said he will consider a jail sentence for Trump if he continues to violate the gag order. The gag order prevents Trump from making or directing others to make public statements about witnesses and their potential participation or remarks about court staff, DA staff or family members of staff. The DA's office argued that Trump violated the order more than a dozen times, with the judge ruling last week that Trump violated the order nine times, resulting in a combined $9,000 fine. Merchan fined the former president another $1,000 for an additional violation on Monday, arguing that it's "clear" the $1,000 fines for each violation are not effective. "The last thing I want to consider is jail," Merchan said. "You are [the] former president and possibly the next president." In the judge’s initial gag order ruling last Tuesday, he threatened Trump with jail time if he continued to violate the order, lamenting not being able to fine Trump more than $1,000 for each violation. Merchan wrote in the Tuesday order that if Trump carries out "continued willful violations" of the gag order, he could face "incarceratory punishment" if "necessary and appropriate." In the text of his order, Merchan said the fines' costs "unfortunately will not achieve the desired result in those instances where the contemnor can easily afford such a fine." Merchan continued in the order last week that it would be "preferable" if the court "could impose a fine more commensurate with the wealth of the contemnor." "In some cases that might be a $2,500 fine, in other cases it might be a fine of $150,000. Because this Court is not cloaked with such discretion, it must therefore consider whether in some instances, jail may be a necessary punishment," he wrote, highlighting again that Trump could face time behind bars if he continues to violate the order. Trump, who is standing trial over 34 felony counts of falsifying business records, has railed against the gag order as "unconstitutional" and accused Merchan of "election interference" while slamming the case overall as a "scam" promoted by the Biden administration. Trump said in his remarks Monday that the trial will last an additional two to three weeks, which he said delighted Merchan because it will keep Trump away from the presidential campaign trail. "So, we just found out the government just said that they want two to three more weeks. That means they want to keep me off the trail for two to three more weeks. Now, anybody in there would realize there's no case. They don't have a case. Every legal scholar says they don't have a case. This is just a political witch hunt. It's election interference. And this is really truly election interference. And it's a disgrace," Trump said, noting his high poll numbers. "The judge is so happy about two to three more weeks because they all want to keep me off the campaign trail. That's all this is about. This is about election interference." Monday marked the beginning of the fourth week of the trial in which Trump is facing 34 counts of falsifying business records. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges. The case focuses on Trump’s former attorney, Michael Cohen, paying former pornographic actor Stormy Daniels $130,000 to allegedly quiet her claims of an alleged extramarital affair she had with the then-real estate tycoon in 2006. Trump has denied having an affair with Daniels. Prosecutors allege that the Trump Organization reimbursed Cohen and fraudulently logged the payments as legal expenses. Prosecutors are working to prove that Trump falsified records with the intent to commit or conceal a second crime, which is a felony. Q | |||

Yes, it's clear to me that Donald Trump is goading the judge to fish or cut bait. Trump knows that his being jailed even for half a day would be to his benefit. The potential fines- up to 150,000 dollars if I understand correctly- wouldn't make Trump bat an eye. Jail him, help him. Fine him, fuck it. On top of that, from all I can see, the D.A. has no case, and can only hope that all 12 jurors hate Donald Trump so much that they will ignore the evidence and testimony and find the man guilty anyway, in which case, the verdict should be overturned on appeal, and if it is not, well, there's gonna be Hell to pay. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||

If Trump ends up in Rikers, I hope we have something approaching the storming of the Bastille. I doubt it could happen in NYC. But it should. | |||

Forever. This is the tyrannical way leftists plan to rule America and Trump’s sham trial is a small taste of what the progressives have planned for us all. We must defeat them at the ballot box; they plan to utterly destroy our country and use the justice system as their weapon. | |||

Assuming everything that Stormy says is true, she has no knowledge, direct or otherwise, on the intent behind the payments. Catch and kill money to avoid embarrassing Melania is not campaign or records fraud. Celebrities buy stories to avoid unfavorable reports. It's not a crime to do that. Also, the judge is on the verge of putting himself into a corner where he has to jail Trump for contempt. He's threatened it before but always imposed a fine. Well, the fines aren't working and while the judge can increase them, on the scale of escalation, all he has left is incarceration. That works in Donald's favor and IIRC, a contempt citation is immediately appealable and doesn't require a case to be at a final judgment before doing so. | |||

Make America Great Again |
I keep wondering just how damned stupid Dems can get, and especially a few who already have IQs in the low 2-digit range. Along comes Maxine Waters... again, to prove she can get much worse! Maxine Waters Claims Trump Supporters Training "In the Hills" for Massive Attack! California sure has a way of finding the worst possible candidates to represent them in Congress. Many are the most extreme kind of leftists who saw Donald Trump’s presidency as the second coming of Adolf Hitler. Like, Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters, who, in a recent interview on MSNBC, spouted an unhinged conspiracy theory about evil Trump supporters. As seen in a clip shared to the social media platform X by RNC Research, Waters spoke to Jonathan Capehart on his show, “The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart.” Democrat Rep. Maxine Waters floats a completely unhinged conspiracy theory that “right-wing organizations” are “training up in the hills somewhere” pic.twitter.com/EIDQgoeA9h According to Mediaite, Waters’ unhinged rant was prompted by a question from Capehart regarding Trump’s recent Time interview. In that interview, according to Capehart, Trump said, “He would not seek to overturn or ignore the Constitution’s prohibition on a third term.” “Should the American people believe that? Do you believe that?” Capehart asked. Waters answered, “No! Absolutely not. As I said, you can’t believe anything that Donald Trump has to say. Donald Trump will do any and everything that he can possibly get away with.” Not a promising start, but, as seen in the video, it got worse. Waters continued her fear-mongering, saying, “This is a man who we better be careful about. And I tell you what I’m going to do, I’m going to ask the Justice Department, and I’m going to ask the president, to tell us what they are going to do protect this country against violence if he loses.” Considering the violence of the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020 and the violence of the protests currently raging on college campuses against Jewish students, perhaps Waters should be more concerned about violence coming from her own party. Regardless, Waters pressed forward, apparently getting carried away by her imagination the more she allowed herself to spout this shameless, panic-inducing rhetoric. She told Capehart, “I want to know about all of those right-wing organizations that he’s connected with, who are training up in the hills somewhere and targeting … what communities they are going to attack.” Once upon a time, Waters’ delusions might have landed her in an asylum. First off, training camps up in the hills? Where did she get that idea? Second, in accusing the right of threatening violence if they didn’t get their way, Waters had absolutely no place to talk. As The Daily Wire reminded their readers, Waters herself has been guilty of encouraging violence and harassment against members of the former president’s cabinet. Back in 2018, Waters, spreading the false claim that Trump was inciting violence, said, “Let’s make sure we show up wherever we have to show up and if you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them, and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere.” Finally, there was absolutely no proof for what Waters’ said, in any context. Trump has always condemned violence against his political opponents. Even with the whole Jan. 6 insurrection, no honest observer could truly say he incited violence or anything remotely resembling a coup. Waters, ignoring her own history of encouraging harassment, was merely engaged in a baseless attempt to whip up voters against Trump. That said, there was probably no amount of proof that could be presented to Waters that would make her change her mind. Like the rest of the liberal establishment, she has decided that Trump and his supporters are a bunch of feral monsters. Waters and her Democrat friends know they can’t convince voters to vote for Biden on his merits, so they must dissuade them from voting for Trump with lies and fear. _____________________________ Bill R.
