The Donald Trump Score Card

‘Don Poorleone’: Trump memes explode as deadline approaches for $464m bond payment

excerpt:

“His lawyers say he can’t get the money in time, he’s getting on Truth Social — his social media platform — and saying he can,” Mr Katyal continued.

“You know, these things don’t make much sense together. It’s a microcosm of what got Trump in trouble in the first place: Lying about his assets. And now he’s kind of doing the same thing.”

Trump and Judge Cannon are conflating one code with another.

It's like saying that because a particular statute that addresses the rules for customers at a bank doesn't explicitly state that it's criminal to rob a bank, that it's not criminal to rob a bank (even though other statutes say that it's criminal).

 

Trump said this week that Melania will start joining him on his campaign stops at an appropriate time (the same remark he gave a reporter when asked when he would finally tell the public what he was doing for hours while the insurrection at the Capitol ensued).

Melanis hasn't been seen with Trump at any of his arrests or criminal court appearances. She has also avoided his civil cases.

Trump claims she stands by him very faithfully, but she hasn't shown it in public since he left office.

Trump's latest line is that she's taking care of Barron. Before that, she was taking care of her mother.

Ivanka and Jared disappeared after Trump left office. They've been replaced with his daughter-in-law Lara and his son Eric. Trump doesn't seem to have offered any explanation about why they disappeared.

Trump-loyalist, never-surrender, election results denialist, sore loser, and now loser to a defamation case by her own choosing, Kari Lake won't fight defamation suit against her by Richer that she caused with her baseless accusations.


Kari Lake Won’t Fight Arizona Election Official’s Defamation Suit

excerpt:

"On Tuesday, Lake, a Trump protégé currently running a campaign for Senate in Arizona, formally petitioned the court to hold a default judgment hearing, motioning to skip straight to the process of determining whether Richer is owed damages, and if so, how much.

Richer said in an interview with The Daily Beast that a request for a default judgment was “certainly not what we expected” from Lake, calling the highly unusual move “peculiar.”

“This might shock you, but I have no great insight into the mind of Kari Lake,” he remarked.

Still, Richer celebrated it as a victory. “For a person who both says she never surrenders, and who claims she has all the evidence at her disposal—I think it’s fairly telling,” he said."

 

Trump and many of his supporters make empty, bluster statements like Kari Lake.

Giuliani and Lindell are now crying crocodile tears about how they needlessly wrecked their own lives in the name of supporting Trump's lies.

Sportswriter Who Golfed With Trump Reveals Exactly How He Cheats At The Game

excerpt:

"Reilly, who wrote an entire book on how Trump cheats at golf, said the former president even confessed one of his methods: When he buys a golf course, he plays the first round alone and declares himself the course champion.

And that’s not the only trick up Trump’s sleeve.

Reilly said golfers have to trust each other because of the vast distances on the course and the fact that there are no referees keeping watch ― and Trump takes full advantage of that.

The former president “always gets a turbo-charged golf cart that goes three times as fast as yours so he’s always 200 yards ahead, and that gives him time to cheat.”

Trump moves his own ball to better spots, and kicks his opponents’ balls into the bunker.

“One time in LA, he was playing $50 a hole with these three guys, he hits it in the pond. They see the splash,” Reilly said. “By the time they get there, it’s in the middle of the fairway and they’re like, ‘What the F, Donald?’ And he goes, ‘It must’ve been the tide.’”"

Trump seemed to think the American public would simply accept his overturning of a fair election.

Jeffrey Clark reportedly said that the Insurrection Act could be used to put down unrest if Trump overturned the 2020 election.

Clark is now one of Trump's 18 co-defendants in GA.

excerpt:

"So Philbin called Clark, a colleague from their days in private practice dating back to the 1990s and tried to talk him out of it.

“I tried to explain to him that it was a bad idea for multiple reasons,” Philbin recalled Tuesday at a long-delayed disbarment hearing for Clark. “He would be starting down a path of assured failure … If by some miracle somehow, it worked, there’d be riots in every major city in the country and it was not an outcome the country would accept.":

 

GOP could lose control of House before 2024 election due to members quitting because of being frustrated by the increasingly narrow acceptance cone of the Trump MAGA mentality.


https://www.salon.com/2024/03/26/fe...er-reveals-gopers-eyeing-exit-for-big-payday/

excerpt:

"The early departures of Reps. Ken Buck, R-Colo., and Mike Gallagher, R-Wis., dropped the Republican majority’s margin to just one vote. Gallagher’s planned departure on April 19 is immediately after a date that would trigger a special election to fill his seat, meaning it is expected to stay empty until in the election.

But “other Republicans are angling to get out as soon as they can,” Fox News’ Chad Pergram reported. “A big payday in the private sector could lure some members to cash in their voting card early.”

Pergram reported that some House Republicans are “fed up” and “just exasperated.”

“Control of the House has never changed in the middle of a Congress. But if it’s going to happen, the 118th Congress is as ripe for that possibility,” Pergram added."

excerpt:

"Rep. Claudia Tenney, R-N.Y., expressed concerns about such a possibility on Fox Business Monday, urging Gallagher to “stay.”

“We can get a special election. It’s a very safe Republican seat. We’ll add to our majority. We don’t have the other special [election] to fill Kevin McCarthy’s seat until April 30th. And we’re perilous. We could end up being– having a Speaker Hakeem Jeffries in the interim here while we’re waiting for special elections,” Tenney said.

“Personally, if you’re going to make a commitment to the people that elect you, that you’re going to serve for two years unless you have a really good reason not to serve, then why would you do that? And aren’t we team Republican?” she asked."
