Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[kaelleria]

So how much damage can Trump do in the next few months?

Like seriously... because he's already starting his farewell tour.

How does Biden lead in Pennsylvania Polls when he is against Fracking (JOBS!), 2nd Amendment and Religion? Fake Polls. I will win Pennsylvania!

Yes, Biden, the Catholic, is against religion.

Someone take Twitter away from Trump.

[Thepersona]

Someone take Twitter away from Trump.

This is either:

a) Steroids Talking
b) An aide trying to sound like Dear Leader

Guess whose account got locked on twitter for breaking doxxing rules:

Twitter locked President Trump’s account after he shared NY Post columnist’s email

Wait wait wait WHAT....

Oh, they locked it until the post was removed. Eugh, false alarm.

[Felya]

Seems active to me.

Yeah, they removed the post and he is back.

Yeah, they removed the post and he is back.

Ahh...they should have locked it for like a week.

Regarding Regeneron:
*Their CEO is a Trump supporter. Trump has held their stock.
*Regen-Cov2 uses cultures from an aborted fetus. The Antichoice Brigade really, really hates this and would like to see it banned.
*Trump’s research advisory board is stocked with loony toons who routinely block stem cell research which is slowing down Covid research.

I could’ve posted this from other sources but I figure this requires some seething contempt.

I guess if Trump can’t even hold the Bible upright he probably won’t mind if a few babies die to save his life.

Twitter locked President Trump’s account

Holy shit. Trump is out of warning shots. The next one's going to draw blood. Trump is gasping for air and barely able to stand --

"Prove it."

Hey remember I asked for a picture of Trump taken today and nobody found one?

"...continue."

Trump is incapable of attending a rally. His events are all covered by Pence or apparently Lara Trump. He doesn't seem up to photo ops or videos for proof of life for some reason. And ain't nobody entering the White House to interview him, even without a camera.

If he loses Twitter, he loses everything. He'll be in a bunker of his own making.

[Cthulhu 2020]

And here I thought, the commemorative coin would be a joke... People pay 100 Dollar for that piece of crap? REALLY?!

You might be amazed to find that little pieces of trash with the Trump label on them are selling for hundreds of dollars on Trump's presidential merchandise store. Fools and their money are soon parted.

IRS Investigating NRA’s Wayne LaPierre for Possible Tax Fraud

The Internal Revenue Service is investigating longtime National Rifle Association CEO Wayne LaPierre for possible criminal tax fraud related to his personal taxes, according to people familiar with the matter.

Mr. LaPierre was paid $2.2 million by the NRA in 2018, the most recent year available, the nonprofit group’s public filings show. His total reported pay from 2014 to 2018 was $11.2 million.

In August, he was charged in a civil suit by New York Attorney GeneralLetitia James with taking millions of dollars of allegedly undisclosed compensation from the NRA and its vendors, in the form of free yacht trips, private jet flights for his family, exotic safaris and other benefits.

Asked at a news conference announcing the lawsuit whether she believed Mr. LaPierre had evaded personal taxes, Ms. James declined to comment but said she was referring the matter to the IRS.

The AG lawsuit claimed the NRA’s failure to include certain personal benefits in Mr. LaPierre’s W-2 annual-compensation forms “permitted him to file false personal tax returns with the IRS.”

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh shit. This sounds a little beyond "whoops I deducted $70,000 on haircuts" to me.

I would be seriously surprised if Trump cared in the slightest about the abortion issue beyond using it to rile up the GOP's voting base... Whether or not they actually care about it remains to be seen, but since Trump is involved I'm going to go with "no, of course not."

[Breccia]

Collins and Murkowski are having second thoughts, but it's too late. They both came out against Trump's unilateral ending of negotiations.

Too bad they're both Republican. Too bad that new TNC statement is "We support Trump". It's a little late to say "I like Trump except for all the bad stuff he does".

They had their chance. They had four years of chances. Put them up against the electoral wall, and see if they're ballotproof.

[DarkTZeratul]

"What would you like to accomplish in your next four years" is an attack? Time to put the pipe down, friend.

You think you don't need a sarcasm tag, and then you realize, "no, there are people who ACTUALLY think that way and someone might take you seriously."

Well, the New York Times has another anti-Trump article out, detailing how gleefully evil the administration was in pursuing the kidnapping scheme at the border. The headline of the article is "We need to take away children, no matter how young, Justice Department officials said".

It's about as enraging as it sounds.

One snippet that is particularly enraging:

Government prosecutors reacted with alarm at the separation of children from their parents during a secret 2017 pilot program along the Mexican border in Texas. “We have now heard of us taking breastfeeding defendant moms away from their infants,” one government prosecutor wrote to his superiors. “I did not believe this until I looked at the duty log.”

And remember how Jefferson Davis Sessions said at the time how it wasn't deliberate policy to take kids away from their parents? He lied, big surprise. /s

“It is the hope that this separation will act as a deterrent to parents bringing their children into the harsh circumstances that are present when trying to enter the United States illegally,” a Border Patrol official wrote on Oct. 28, 2017, to the U.S. attorney in New Mexico, according to the draft report.

There's one salient quote in there for me -

“We need to take away children,” Mr. Sessions told the prosecutors...

Also, when Trump says he doesn't know who the Proud Boys are...they're on Fox a lot. He knows exactly who they are.

He is also friends with Roger Stone, who hangs out with Proud Boys, I think every time he leaves his house. Even had them at his trial where he was found guilty.

[Breccia]

Likely sighing in defeat, DHS finally releases a long-delayed report saying, yes, white supremacy is the most dangerous threat to the Homeland.

In August, a whistleblower said this report was being stalled, because it would make Trump look bad. I guess after Trump personally and directly told the Proud Boys to stand by, there was no longer any reason to worry about that.
