    Trump's been quiet about the abortion issue on the campaign trail, although in interviews he has talked proudly about his three appointments to the Supreme Court that made it possible to overturn Roe v. Wade. Trump has also said they he's supportive of federal regulations restricting abortion.

    Trump's home state of FL is going through legislative and legal wrangling on the abortion issue.


    The Biggest Abortion Vote Since Dobbs

    excerpt:

    "Starting next month, Florida will ban nearly all abortions. Women in Florida, the second-largest provider of abortion care in the nation — just behind California, according to advocates — will be subject to stringent restrictions that resemble those in states like Texas. The South will lose one of its few remaining safe havens for abortion care. A woman in Miami, for example, may have to travel as far as North Carolina for the procedure."

    Rosanne Barr was at a fundraiser for Kari Lake at Mar-a-Lago.


    Roseanne Barr Urged Students to 'Drop Out of College' at Mar-a-Lago Fundraiser?

    excerpt:

    "Hey, Old Row, how are you doing? I'm here at Mar-a-Lago supporting Kari Lake, and it was a fantastic evening. And our Trump is here being the DJ, and I've just danced and everyone's amazed. So I'm just going to say to you, please drop out of college, because it's going to ruin your lives. Do me a favor, drop out, they don't teach you nothing good. Email me or Twitter me or whatever you [want], call me and I'll help you with your life but you gotta get out of college 'cause it isn't nothing but devil-worshiping, baby-blood-drinking Democrat donors. Love ya."

    How Trump’s story about Ruby Garcia’s family went horribly awry

    excerpt:

    "First, if you’re exploiting someone’s murder to score cheap political points in an election, stop.

    Second, if you’re exploiting someone’s murder and you reference the victim’s relatives, keep in mind that they can speak for themselves, too.

    Third, if you’re planning to exploit someone’s murder, try to get the details right. As my MSNBC colleague Clarissa-Jan Lim noted, Trump not only appears to have pointed to family interactions that did not occur, he also made incorrect claims about the alleged killer and misstated the victim’s age."

    How Trump’s story about Ruby Garcia’s family went horribly awry

    excerpt:

    "And finally, I’m trying to imagine what the reaction might be if President Joe Biden publicly declared that he’d spoken to a murder victim’s family members, only to have evidence emerge soon after that those interactions hadn’t happened.

    I have a hunch it’d lead to another round of intense scrutiny about the Democratic incumbent’s age and cognitive abilities. So why isn’t the presumptive GOP nominee facing similar questions now?"

    Because Trump commits so many egregious violations that people have come to expect it and are too inundated to counter his plethora of offenses. Instead, they focus on what they perceive are faults of Biden.

    Trump is the bully at elementary school who causes so much trouble that he usually gets away with it, while others who are ethical but are perceived as occasionally stepping out of line a smidgen are punished severely for it.

    In December 2023, Ohio became the first state GOP to endorse Trump for president in 2024.


    https://ohiocapitaljournal.com/2023...icians-betraying-the-voters-and-the-republic/

    exceprt:

    "State Republicans promoting awful legislation, the public is dead set against, are intoxicated with power and willing to throw principle to the wind. The same debasement is evident in the Ohio Republican Party, the first state party in the nation to endorse Trump for president in 2024 dismissing his seditious conspiracy to overthrow the last presidential election."

    Cornell expert says Trump’s frequent phonemic paraphasia ‘are signs of early dementia’ | Cornell Chronicle

    excerpt:

    “Objectively, Donald Trump has a documented history of lying that is so marked as to be considered 'pathological.' Politicians often say untrue things, but the frequency of Trump’s lying is so extreme as to meet criteria for sociopathic behavior, since he tells falsehoods across all life domains, from his personal relationships to business dealings and finally to politics. Recently, several clinicians have noted the ways he has begun to mistake words, lose his train of thought, confuse Biden with Obama, particularly during long rallies held in the evening. There are examples of phonemic paraphasia – swapping parts of words for others that sound similar; these are signs of early dementia, even though they are intermittent.

    Trump boasts about eclipse and shows video of his head blocking the sun and casting the U.S. into darkness.


    Trump posts bizarre solar eclipse ad – with his head plunging US into darkness

    excerpt:

    "The footage moves between the awestruck crowds and the sun where a huge silhouette begins to slowly move across it.

    But, it’s not the moon causing the rare phenomenon. It’s the outline of Mr Trump’s head – complete with quiff, bushy eyebrows and long neck.

    As his head covers the entirety of the sun – creating its own solar eclipse – a phrase flashes across the screen: “We will save America. And make it great again.”

    Some social media users were somewhat baffled by the message in the campaign ad: that Mr Trump will block out the sun and plunge the entire Earth into darkness."

    During the 2017 solar eclipse, Trump was repeatedly looking at it with naked eyes.


    Trump posts bizarre solar eclipse ad – with his head plunging US into darkness

    excerpt:

    "While Melania and Barron both sported eclipse glasses, the former president was seen staring repeatedly at the eclipse without proper eye protection.

    At one point, an aide was heard shouting “don’t look” while Melania also appeared to encourage her husband to put on the protective eyewear. Looking directly at an eclipse without protective glasses can lead to severe eye damage and even blindness."

    Trump scaring his guests at Mar-a-Lago about groups he doesn't like by saying some of them are here right now.


    Trump, at Fund-Raiser, Says He Wants Immigrants From ‘Nice’ Countries

    excerpt:

    "At the dinner, Mr. Trump also lamented the surge of migrants, particularly from Latin America, saying that gang members “make the Hells Angels look like extremely nice people.”

    “They’ve been shipped in, brought in, deposited in our country, and they’re with us tonight,” Mr. Trump said.

    “In fact, I don’t think they’re on this island, but I know they’re on that island right there. That’s West Palm,” Mr. Trump said, gesturing across the water, according to the attendee. “Congratulations over there. But they’ll be here. Eventually, they’ll be here.”"

    Trump's words, commie rats and bloodbaths, are heard in the tune from 1966:

    The Fugs - Kill For Peace
