Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 28 May 23 - 08:20 AM Trump thinks he grows taller by cutting the head off others. Like a monopoly he thinks "I don't care because I don't have to". Well, it looks like he will be learning to care. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 28 May 23 - 05:50 PM It's like watching a slow-moving chess game, which government prosecutor, county, state, or federal, is going to take a shot at Trump next, and ultimately, which one is going to disqualify him from holding public office. (The analogy is a chess game but it has more than two players, unless someone can name some other slow-moving game with lots of players.) |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Helen Date: 28 May 23 - 06:50 PM SRS, another slow-moving (in my opinion) game with lots of players that I can think of is Monopoly, which is kinda relevant because that's what Trump tries to achieve in everything he does. Coincidentally, this week I saw a UK TV quiz show host state that his family used to bend the rules of Monopoly so that each game would go on for days. Bending the rules is also one of Trump's key features. And the aim of Monopoly is to monopolise all the money and resources to gain the most power over other people in the game. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 28 May 23 - 07:17 PM Even after writing eleven books and winning several awards, Maya Angelou couldn't escape the self-doubt that she hadn't earned her accomplishments. This feeling of fraudulence is extremely common. Why can't so many of us shake feelings that our ideas and skills aren't worthy of others. “I feel compelled to think of myself as an involuntary swindler.” - Albert Einstein in 1955, shortly before his death. Impostor Syndrome is a psychological ...You can check Tom Hanks yourself. The gears of justice grind slowly but a grand pause after the capitol invasion I BELIEVE WAS NEEDED. Appeasing the Confederates lasted 150 years. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Steve Shaw Date: 28 May 23 - 08:32 PM Slow-moving is exactly right. The democratic part of the world outside the US has watched with dismay how the yanks have allowed someone who is clearly criminal to weave his way through what you laughingly call your justice system into a position of being a realistic presidential candidate (let alone a rock-solid cert to win if and when he becomes that candidate). If he wins, that's the end of democracy, and America has sleepwalked its way into this position. You have powerful vested right-wing interests and you have frightened politicians who are allowing this to happen. I said on this forum many years ago that your politics is infantile. We are now reaping the whirlwind of that. Meet Trump, your next president. Or I'll eat my bloody hat. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 28 May 23 - 09:16 PM There are several charges that if he is convicted will prohibit him from running. Sedition is one. If he is found guilty of sharing those classified documents at Mar-a-lago (have they checked the phones of frequent guests? I'd bet they snapped a few pix) he's toast as far as the espionage act. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: MaJoC the Filk Date: 29 May 23 - 10:00 AM > We'll settle for Ron then. *NOOOOO* .... He reminds me of the I CLAVDIVS scene where Claudius's two advisers are discussing potential brides for Claudius. One suggests Agrippinilla, and the other retorts: "It'll be like the Lady Messalina all over again --- worse, the Lady Messalina with brains." |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Lighter Date: 29 May 23 - 12:07 PM Of course Trump can run for President from a jail cell. It's been done before. And if he wins, he's President. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/04/06/trump-running-for-president-prison-00090931 But at the rate the process is going, he may not even stand trial on federal charges before November, 2024. |

But his luck has run out. Who knows, maybe the GOP in Texas tossing out their Attorney General will give the national party some ideas. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 29 May 23 - 02:09 PM Stilly is right BUT he is not indicted or convicted of sedition. I hope Steve's hat is made of cake. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 29 May 23 - 02:19 PM Like Ron, I. Claudius said "let all the evil in the mud hatch out" Believe me Florida is muddy. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Steve Shaw Date: 29 May 23 - 07:28 PM I'd far sooner eat a hat than see Trump back in power. I call that GOOD taste. All I ask is that I get to choose the material. Last time I ate a felt hat I bloody near choked... |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Steve Shaw Date: 29 May 23 - 07:36 PM By the way, an elephant trainer in Ontario had his Tilley hat snatched from him and eaten by elephants three times. It was still wearable. As it happens, I've had a Tilley hat for 22 years. I'm trying to work out whether I can get it down in one as I'd still like to wear it afterwards. There wouldn't be any other takers. This looks a bit off-topic, though let's remember that elephants make TRUMPeting noises... |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 31 May 23 - 07:10 AM In a nutshell, the wreckage that remains from Trump is threefold. 1. The conservative Supream Court 2. A historic 8 Trillion dollar debt (not taxing the rich) 3. A race war, extra death in the pandemic and a US Isis insurrection. Some would include his crimes or global US humiliation. The Republican Party works to establish a permanent minority rule by voter suppression and gerrymandering representative districts. A shift toward fascism goes together with abject lying. The world moves on and new issues have emerged like AI and Ukraine war presenting new dangers. This is only my perspective but I hope others have sharper vision. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 31 May 23 - 04:15 PM Even Rolling Stone is in the Trump news reporting business: Trump’s Lawyers Warn Him: Get Ready to Be Indicted by the Feds The former president has angrily complained in response to predictions that if the Justice Department is going to charge him, then “What about Joe Biden?” This month, several legal and political counselors to Trump have bluntly informed him that they expect the Justice Department to charge him in the criminal investigation into his hoarding of highly classified documents following the end of his presidency, two sources familiar with the matter tell Rolling Stone. The feds have also been probing whether or not Trump tried to obstruct the investigation prior to last year’s FBI raid of the ex-president’s Florida estate. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 01 Jun 23 - 05:48 AM The Trump Supreme Court ruled that one half of all US wetlands may now be polluted. Only wetlands directly adjacent to a flowing waterway may be protected now. In some circles Trump's MAGA means makes attorneys get attorneys. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 01 Jun 23 - 07:15 AM A petite young lady named Reality released only one document to the press It was about Russian bots in our elections That was called espionage and she served 5 years in prison. If the words espionage are in his indictment Trump is in deep feces. One stolen document was our Iran attack plans Even if he merely intended to sell it to Iran Donald could be charged with treason. |

Subject: RE: WOKE WAR 3 WW3 From: Donuel Date: 01 Jun 23 - 07:43 AM The war on Woke is going violent. Brandishing AR 15s people are destroying 'Pride merchandise', and harassing employees. Boycotting Chic Fillet for their diversity employee requirement is their message. BOMB THREATS and intimidation are being reported. Book bans are part of their strategy. The perpetrators are a small group and 75% of Americans are fine with gays but violence magnifies the woke war. D Santis is pleased with a wuke war. |

|
Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 01 Jun 23 - 11:42 AM It was reported this week on MSNBC that Trump has started asking his people to make lists of individuals to fire or otherwise abuse. The special prosecutor and others are working to shield jury members and staff who work on these Trump cases so that should the most awful scenario of Trump in the White House happen again, he can't purge everyone who ever worked on his case. That seems to count as narcissistic awareness. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 01 Jun 23 - 12:14 PM Trump pledged, "If I am the next President the prosecutors will be fired/removed, outta here". . |

Jean Carroll case because Trump is a persecuted 'white Christian' Judge Lewis Kaplan dismissed a motion from a Donald Trump ally to dismiss E. Jean Carroll's 2019 defamation case because he's being persecuted for being a white Christian. No surprise that Kaplan makes it clear that Brady has no standing to intervene. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 03 Jun 23 - 05:28 AM What next, will he make a motion that he is a God and is immune to prosecution? Ceasar tried that one but the Senate had an answer to that one. Christian fascism and antisemitism are bringing people together but perhaps not enough to save their leader. If he thinks he can replace Christ, he is going to have to be tortured to death first and be resurrected, which is not that hard with a big lie. ah Oh... there goes my satire alarm. It tells me when the truth crosses the line and might cause someone pain. Oh well, its 5 in the morning so I am likely to be honest. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 03 Jun 23 - 02:29 PM Sometimes releasing documents can get you a medal and not a prison sentence. Daniel Ellsberg released the Pentagon Papers to the NYT. Julian Assange and Snowden got a raw deal. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 03 Jun 23 - 06:27 PM While Trump isn't religious he wishes people were more like the Duggar family well beyond his base. The Family Research Council is all in for Trump. After all, perversion is not a problem for Trumpers, it's a blessing. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 04 Jun 23 - 08:13 AM The US is subject to the same danger of religious rule as Afghanistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and other nations, except it is by Christianity and not Islam. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 07 Jun 23 - 06:14 AM Mark Meadows, Trump's chief of staff, TESTIFIED in the documents case. We don't know what he said yet. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 07 Jun 23 - 06:40 PM The Trump cases are circling the drain now, any time these things are going to go down (sorry about the mixed metaphors). But I like the image of Trump being flushed or ending up in the sewer. That extra grand jury in Florida we just learned about seems to be for those Trump staffers at Mar-a-lago who were never in D.C., so the appropriate place to examine their participation in Trump crimes is in Florida. And this is the place where they may be able to make deals - testimony for leniency or no charges in return for telling what they know about Trump and Giuliani and a few of the other Trump lieutenants. Meanwhile, I knew there wouldn't be many breaths drawn between the breaking account of the PGA merger with the LIV Saudi golf league and news of Trump's gloating about it. The golfers who didn't take the Saudi money have good reason to be pissed that management took the bucks. And Trump just makes like a bandit. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Helen Date: 08 Jun 23 - 12:15 AM I read this article about Jeffrey Epstein in prison, holding his hands over his ears because a faulty toilet was making too much noise in his cell and he was trapped and couldn't get away from it. I thought of Trump, when he gets his just desserts and goes to prison, with extremely limited facilities and no staff at his beck and call. How to drive a sociopath nuts. Documents reveal new details about lead-up and aftermath to Jeffrey Epstein's death "Two weeks before ending his life, Jeffrey Epstein sat in the corner of his Manhattan jail cell with his hands over his ears, desperate to muffle the sound of a toilet that would not stop running." |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Steve Shaw Date: 08 Jun 23 - 04:02 AM For it is written: “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, says the Lord.” Fantasising about the prospect of a miserable existence for Trump in prison is futile. There is just one urgent matter, and that is to get him out of the way so that he can no longer influence events, specifically stopping him from becoming president again. The clock is ticking. |
