So tRump "welcomes/begs" visitors such as billionaires Jeff Yass and Elon Musk down to MAL for a tire-kicking session..."I'm in a cash crunch, boys, what can you do for me? Here's what I can do for you...". Transactional tRumpism in action, folks, a preview of a tRump MarkII presidency.
The whole concept of "conservative colorblindness" is a prime example of confusing the ideal with the reality. The result is buying into our country's slogans, meant to be inspiring but only TO BE achieved, and thinking that THAT means being patriotic.
Can you imagine being a "regular Joe" handling boxes containing documents that, just a short time earlier, required US Generals and other high-ranking Gov’t officials entering high-security rooms to have top-level security clearances just to peek inside?
TRUMP: At first I wanted to ban Tik Tok to look tough on China. Now I DON'T wanna ban Tik Tok cause my rich buddy would lose some money.
BIDEN: In spite of the negative optics in the election, I ask Congress to have the highly popular app Tik Tok restructured ASAP for National Security purposes and for the good of the United States.
the undeniable fact that when given the opportunity to return these items without any consequences, he doubled down, denying he had them and taking intentional steps to avoid returning them when the government subpoenaed them.
This has always scared the crap out of me, because it shows these documents were never just trophies, but had value to t***p, most likely monetary.
Re Atlanta: based on my reading of it at TPM, the victory looks like a fairly minor, easily correctable one, which is to say that at least as of now a minor one. I’m not going to agree that it’s significant til I see a good explanation why it is. Or, I should say, as a cynical retired litigator, I have a pretty good understanding how this stuff works. Too, I’d like to believe that McAfee, with all the delaying he’s doing here and with the disqualification is actually helping by ensuring that successes on appeal are unlikely because, you know, we should want any and all convictions to stick.
And, of course, I’m well on record preferring that none of the four cases get finally resolved before the election instead of giving BLOTUS an acquittal which, in practice, would be vindicating. (Yes, I know, that puts Smith’s cases at huge risk but he can always do the superseding indictment thing if he can show dissemination of any of the retained materials by BLOTUS IYKWIM.
I sent my welcome Khaya email to look out for True the Vote; they and their SCOTUS strategy are the Stop the Steal 2.0 so the rich don’t have to pay taxes!
Welcome, Khaya!!
"I have to resist the temptation" no! Voters need to hear the exact same message in the exact same way 1000 times before it sinks in...
