The Donald Trump Score Card

Sooner the better....

 

The people he interviewed might be the fringe among the fringe but it still shows how ignorant and delusional the remaining Trump supporters are!

 

goddamn, these people are fucking stupid. This country is doomed.

 

Trump told Sen. Tommy Tuberville to 'protect yourself' right before the riot on January 6

excerpt:

"It was the former college football coach’s first full day in the Senate, and already he was being called off the sidelines. Earlier on Jan. 6, Trump had wanted to talk to Tuberville but called Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) by mistake; Lee had handed Tuberville a cellphone in the Senate chamber. Tuberville said he didn’t have time to find out exactly what Trump wanted. Vice President Mike Pence had been whisked to a secure location, and Tuberville and his colleagues had to get moving, too. “I know we’ve got problems,” Tuberville recalled the president saying before the call ended. “Protect yourself.”

Inside the storage closet, a bunker within a bunker, surrounded by stacked furniture, the senators weighed whether the mob’s demonstration of loyalty to Trump that day might affect their own.

“There were 12 of us gathered to talk about what happens now [and] where do things go from here,” said Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.).

The mood was “very heavy,” remembered Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.).

“I do remember saying we have to pull the country together,” said Lankford, “We are so exceptionally divided that it’s spilling into the building.”"

 

Trump told Sen. Tommy Tuberville to 'protect yourself' right before the riot on January 6

excerpt:

""I didn't really listen to them," Tuberville told the Post, though he did recall other details. "One thing that was brought up was that people were hurt," he said.

"Do we want to continue this," he said the senators contemplated, "if there's not going to be a result we are looking for anyway?"

"I wasn't voting for me, I was voting for the people of Alabama," Tuberville told The Post. "President Trump has an 80-percent approval there. I told them, 'I'm going to vote how you want me to vote.'"

The former Auburn University football coach has taken a surprisingly different path in the months since he was elected, seeking to build relationships across the aisle. He's also called Trump's pre-January 6 rhetoric a "mistake" and has said he's not convinced that voter fraud was responsible for Trump's defeat. Even so, Tuberville isn't sorry for his vote on the day of the Capitol riot.

"I have no regrets," Tuberville told the Post."

and how is that working out for them?

 

Don't that sound just like a used car salesman?

 

He really is going to be the subject of a few thousand master's thesis projects in so many colleges. The field of criminal psychology will never be the same.

 

Understatement of the century. This is delusions. This is straight up truth denial and fantasies. That cameraman recorded nothing less than a total mass psychosis in action. God help America.

 

The water in Iowa must be contaminated by some powerful substance?

 

God help us!

 

Its not a crime when you're a billionaire, and criminal psychology is for poor people.

 

Trump is missing an opportunity to say he would have thrown his body in front of Ashli Babbitt and taken the bullet for her.

Trump made a statement that he would go into a school unarmed and take down a mass shooter himself.

Trump reportedly came 'incredibly close' to naming Ivanka Trump as World Bank chief

excerpt:

""It came incredibly close to happening," one well-placed source told The Intercept.

It isn't news that Trump wanted to pick his daughter and senior adviser to head the World Bank. He told The Atlantic in April 2019 that he had "thought of Ivanka for the World Bank" and "she would've been great at that because she's very good with numbers." In the end, it was controversial enough that she helped pick Malpass, alongside Mnuchin and then-White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows.

White House spokeswoman Jessica Ditto explained at the time that Ivanka was qualified to be on the selection team because "she's worked closely with the World Bank's leadership for the past two years," a nod to the World Bank's Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative, which she helped launch. Not many other people seemed to believe that made her qualified, and certainly not to lead the World Bank. Representatives for Mnuchin, Ivanka Trump, the World Bank, and the Trump Organization did not respond to The Intercept's requests for comment on the report."

 

Whitehouse admits Trump may not be mastermind behind DOJ scheme to overturn election

excerpt:

"But the Rhode Island Democrat said the question of who actually masterminded the DOJ "scheme" remains unclear, and he pondered how it was funded.

"What we don't know is who was really behind this," Whitehouse said. "The text of the transcript and the body English of the witnesses suggests that they had very little regard for this character Jeffrey Clark, who was nominally going to be the new attorney general. They doubted his qualifications to even have that role."

"So, it's a possibility, I suppose, that he saw this moment and grabbed it, but it's an equally real possibility that he was a cog in a larger machine, and we've got a lot of work to do to figure out how that machine ran through this period, who was behind it, where the money came from, and what's been going on," he added.

Todd pressed this point, asking, "And you think it's somebody other than Donald Trump? I mean — you know, when I hear that, you're essentially saying you believe there's somebody else involved, somebody else was pulling the strings. Who could that be besides Donald Trump?"

Whitehouse said Senate investigators, who are cooperating with the House Jan. 6 Select Committee, don't yet have a clear view on that subject.

"We don't know yet, but, you know, this guy jumped to a dark money enterprise. So, he's been taken care of, Jeffrey Clark. There was a lot of activity around this with members of Congress. There's just a lot left to be learned," he added."

 

House January 6 committee unanimously votes to hold Steve Bannon in criminal contempt

excerpt:

"The House select committee investigating the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol voted unanimously Tuesday night to hold former President Trump's adviser Steve Bannon in criminal contempt for defying a subpoena to appear and produce records.

Bannon was ordered to appear before the committee last week, but his attorney said he was following the direction of the former president's legal team to not provide documents or testify. The committee recommended Monday night that he be held in criminal contempt. All Democrats on the committee and the two Republicans on the committee, Representatives Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, voted in favor of holding Bannon in criminal contempt.

"We believe Mr. Bannon has information relevant to our probe, and we'll use the tools at our disposal to get that information," Chairman Bennie Thompson said ahead of the vote. "I expect that the House will quickly adopt this referral to the Justice Department and that the U.S. Attorney will do his duty and prosecute Mr. Bannon for criminal contempt of Congress.""

Trump’s Pentagon Chief Quashed Idea to Send 250,000 Troops to the Border

excerpt

"WASHINGTON — President Trump’s defense secretary thought the idea was outrageous.

In the spring of 2020, Mark T. Esper, the defense secretary, was alarmed to learn of an idea under discussion at a top military command and at the Department of Homeland Security to send as many as 250,000 troops — more than half the active U.S. Army, and a sixth of all American forces — to the southern border in what would have been the largest use of the military inside the United States since the Civil War.

With the coronavirus pandemic raging, Stephen Miller, the architect of Mr. Trump’s immigration agenda, had urged the Homeland Security Department to develop a plan for the number of troops that would be needed to seal the entire 2,000-mile border with Mexico. It is not clear whether it was officials in homeland security or the Pentagon who concluded that a quarter of a million troops would be required.

The concept was relayed to officials at the Defense Department’s Northern Command, which is responsible for all military operations in the United States and on its borders, according to several former senior administration officials. Officials said the idea was never presented formally to Mr. Trump for approval, but it was discussed in meetings at the White House as they debated other options for closing the border to illegal immigration."

 

McCarthy accused Pelosi of being too partisan with the select committee after he blocked the formation of a bipartisan commission, which forced the formation of the select committee.

McCarthy said the GOP would conduct its own investigation about Trump's riot, but little has occurred.
