The Donald Trump Score Card

Trump endorsed her for governor of AZ right after she said Trump should be added to Mr. Rushmore.


Trump endorsed a candidate for Arizona governor right after she called for him to to be added to Mount Rushmore

 

Trump is upset with the current GOP governor of AZ, Ducey, because he put his phone ringer on mute as Trump tried to interrupt him from signing the certification of the AZ electoral count, as seen on video.

The call was from Trump. Ducey's phone was playing the ringtone Hail To The Chief which Ducey had previously proudly said he put on his phone to identify his buddy Trump ((before he got in bad with Trump for not overthrowing the AZ election).

 

It's as if Trump was watching a live feed of Ducey ready to sign the paper for the electoral count. Trump called Ducey as he had his pen and was about to sign the document.

 

Trump has an uncanny ability to know when and where to use an underhanded approach to interfere with the law.and accepted procedure.

Another example is Trump canceling the military flight of the secret bipartisan Congressional delegation that was to visit U.S. troops in Afghanistan while they were on their way to the airport.

Trump did it to retaliate against Pelosi who indicated that she might not permit Trump to do an on-schedule State Of The Union Address because it would look bad to do so during the government shutdown that Trump started.

Trump shut down the government (the longest one in U.S. history) because the Republicans wouldn't give him billions of dollars of U.S. taxpayer money for his border wall (which he later funded by declaring a fake national emergency which permitted him to bypass Congress and re-purpose U.S. military money to fund it at taxpayer expense).

 

Pelosi should have seen that one coming considering all of her political experience and knowing Trump's retaliatory behavior.

She made a remark to the press a couple days earlier while smiling and saying that she hadn't yet heard of Trump's response to the possibility of her denying him an on-schedule SOTU address which she knew upset Trump.

 

Various politicians in DC were caught off-guard in that manner, probably due to no one of Trump's nature being president in recent decades.

The other faulty perception in DC was that Trump had learned his lesson. Two impeachments and a Capitol riot didn't teach him any lessons. Nearly a year after the 2020 election, he seems to have dug his trench even deeper.

 

She would receive even more support from Trump is she said the four faces on Mt. Rushmore should be replaced with four faces of Trump.

 

Trump accrued an ego boost by such behavior, but such acts likely chipped away at his veteran constituents. Various polls show his support from veterans gradually and consistently declining during his term. Even his support from the infantry dropped later in his term, which had been his strongest support.

In a relatively close election in swing states in 2020, such a loss is significant. Trump, however, blames it on selective voter fraud in regions where Biden had a margin over Trump.

excerpt:

"At roughly the same time that Trump was gathering and unleashing his goons to intimidate members of Congress on Jan. 6, he was pressuring Justice Department leaders to provide legal cover for his effort to prevent certification of the election. When they refused, Trump conspired with a lower-level loyalist to take over the department and run it according to the president’s dictates. Under the threat of mass resignations, Trump eventually backed off.

This led to one of the lamest excuses in the long history of lame political excuses. Trump defenders such as Brit Hume want to award Trump kudos for desisting in the end. “Trump decided against it,” Hume tweeted. “It is not to his credit that he even considered it, but his rejection should be part of any story on it.” But this retrenchment, on Trump’s part, was a recognition of positional weakness, not a display of public virtue. The thing that matters most is this: The current front-runner for the 2024 Republican nomination would have broken the constitutional order if he could have broken the constitutional order.

Meanwhile, it is clear that this same lawless, reckless man has a perfectly realistic path back to power. The GOP is a garbage scow of the corrupt, the seditious and their enablers, yet the short- and medium-term political currents are in its favor.

This is not simply a problem of the Biden administration’s messaging. It reflects deeper political challenges, recently and vividly described by Ezra Klein and David Shor. In my woefully condensed version of Klein’s column based on his interviews with the data analyst: American voters are increasingly polarized by education (which is really a proxy for complex issues of class and race). Whites with a college education have lurched Democratic. Whites without a college education have lurched Republican.

This presents Democrats with disadvantages. Significantly more voters lack a college education than have one. And voters with a college education tend to be located in urban areas, which centralizes and thus diminishes their influence. Both the electoral college and the constitutional method of Senate representation reward those who control wide open spaces.

What does this mean in practice? It means Democrats need to significantly outperform Republicans in national matchups to obtain even mediocre results in presidential and Senate races. It means that Democrats, to remain competitive, need to win in places they don’t currently win, draw from groups they don’t currently draw and speak in cultural dialects they don’t currently speak."

 

Brit Hume is trying to portray Trump as benevolent because he 'decided against' his own Saturday Night Massacre that would have left him crippled and embarrassed and potentially vulnerable to criminal charges (using the DOJ to coerce state officials to overturn an election, charges that he could still face as a result of conspiring with others to commit such an act even though he didn't actually commit it in full).

Nixon decided for such an event and was later run out of office because of it.

 

There was also another guy from Rochester Dominic Pezzola, who argued that jail conditions violate his human rights.

Imagine if every prisoner made that argument.....lol...

Grassley changes his mind about Trump.

At age 88, Grassley feels he needs Trump's endorsement to run for an 8th U.S. Senate term.


Grassley's embrace of Trump shakes GOP landscape

excerpt:

"Sen. Chuck Grassley’s (R-Iowa) enthusiastic appearance at a Trump event in Iowa over the weekend shows that the former president has further strengthened his grip on the GOP following the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

The Iowa senator’s eagerness to stand next to former President Trump at a boisterous rally in Des Moines only days after Trump repeatedly trashed Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) — a friend and ally of Grassley's — served as a wakeup call to some Republicans that Trump is back and very much in charge of the party.

Grassley, 88, has worked carefully over his four decades in the Senate to cultivate a reputation as a politician completely in step with Iowans who cherish family values, hard work, ethical behavior and integrity.

A few months ago, Grassley criticized Trump for refusing to accept the results of the 2020 election, accusing him of “poor leadership” and “extreme, aggressive and irresponsible” language."

 

NOBODY should be in any public office 8 terms, and certainly nobody 88 years old... He openly criticizes Trumph of poor leadership, but there Grassley is with his head up Trumph's ass again. Cherishes ethical behavior my ass. The dems better wake the fuck up and start throwing some money around.

 

Hey Donny (and others) do a little research before you jump on the bandwagon!
