    In a Manhattan Court, a Jury Is Picked to Judge a President

    excerpt:

    "Inside a chilly courtroom on Thursday, as lawyers on both sides scrutinized a new round of prospective jurors, Mr. Trump stared intently at the jury box and appeared to press his lawyers to voice objections. But when Mr. Trump poked one of the lawyers, Todd Blanche, Mr. Blanche shook his head at his client."

    https://www.politico.com/news/2024/04/17/trump-jan-6-capitol-riot-national-guard-00152757

    excerpt:

    "The testimony is the latest addition to a complicated picture of the military’s response to the violence, which raged for hours on Jan. 6 until the D.C. police and National Guard helped the Capitol Police contain it that evening. The riot select committee found that Trump made no calls to senior leaders of the Justice Department, Pentagon or Department of Homeland Security while the violence raged — nor did he reach out to his vice president, Mike Pence, who was sheltering from the mob at the Capitol.

    Rather, Trump watched the riot unfold on TV and made phone calls to lawmakers who he hoped would support his bid to block President Joe Biden’s victory."

    During an interview when asked why he didn't call Pence during the riot, Trump's excuse was that he figured Pence was safe with the Secret Service.

    Trump showed a collection of news clipping of conservative op-eds to the media at the end of day three of the trial that say the trial is unfair to Trump. He claimed Biden orchestrated his criminal case in NY and that Biden should be the one on trial.


    Trump Whines About ‘Freezing’ Court, Waves Around Fox Op-Eds

    excerpt:

    "Slowly shuffling out of the courthouse a little after 5 p.m. local time, Trump carried a bundle of color printouts of various op-eds and immediately began unsurprisingly whining about the impact the trial was having on his presidential campaign.

    “I am supposed to be in Georgia; in North Carolina, South Carolina. I’m supposed to be in a lot of different places campaigning, but I’ve been here all day,” he groused before turning to his stack of papers.

    “It’s a whopping outrage and it is an outrage. Everybody is outraged by it,” he continued while thumbing through the pages."

    Trump has used the stack of papers ploy before.

    He had stacks of unidentified papers on a table during a press gathering early in his presidency that supposedly proved he had divested from his businesses and that they wouldn't affect his behavior in the White House.

    The two Trump aides charged in federal documents case lose bid to have case dismissed.


    Trump aides lose bid to dismiss charges related to classified documents hoarded at Mar-a-Lago

    excerpt;

    "A Florida judge has denied motions from two former Donald Trump aides to have charges relating to the classified documents found at the former president’s Mar-a-Lago home dismissed.

    Carlos De Oliveira
    and Walt Nauta were charged with multiple counts of the obstruction of justice alongside Mr Trump last year."

    Constitutional Sheriffs Group Plans To Insert Itself Into More Aspects Of The Voting Process In 2024

    excerpt:

    "Lindell was only one of many election deniers who spoke at this week’s 12 and a half hour event, regaling the, in reality, sparse crowd in attendance with tales of dangerous voting machines and debunked conspiracy theories about a stolen 2020 election. The conference included speakers like failed Arizona Secretary of State candidate Mark Finchem, ex-Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne, and former Trump administration officials-turned MAGA personalities Steve Bannon, and Michael Flynn, among others."

    Constitutional Sheriffs Group Plans To Insert Itself Into More Aspects Of The Voting Process In 2024

    excerpt:

    "The movement — which stands on principles that Mary McCord, executive director of the Institute for Constitutional Advocacy and Protection and professor of law at Georgetown University Law Center, described as “really sort of made up” — maintains that sheriffs hold supreme law enforcement authority in the country, and that sheriffs, not federal or state law enforcement, have the ultimate authority to reject enforcement of federal law."

    The same mentality as Trump. They think they are an ultimate absolute authority answerable to nobody.

    Trump tries to put NY city on trial.


    Trump 'trying to instil culture of violence, lawlessness and mob rule'

    excerpt:

    "Dr Lee explains: "This is how he spreads his symptoms, especially his fixed false beliefs since he will not be able to win followers through rational persuasion, or "win" any election legitimately. He is also countering his criminal charges with more criminality, and so far it has worked.

    "What he says about others is a good indication about himself: he fixated on Joe Biden's nonexistent "cognitive problems," because of his need to project (attribute to others one's own symptoms as a form of denial). Trump's compulsive drive to overcompensate for his weaknesses has been mistaken for "strength" (especially since his emotional compulsion pressures others to adopt his beliefs)," added the psychiatrist.

    "Furthermore, he has not only shown himself to be dangerous but is dangerous to the greatest degree," continued Lee, referring to petitions on the World Mental Health Coalition website. Prior to his arrival, Trump's campaign handed out leaflets to journalists criticizing Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg for his handling of the bodega case. Bragg is currently overseeing the office prosecuting Trump."

    Trump is stuck in criminal trial in NYC probably for the next six weeks. He's faced with doing one campaign stop after another at a convenience store in Manhattan trying to cherry-pick a crime that involved an immigrant and blame it on Judge Merchan or prosecutor Alvin Bragg.

    Trump is saying that he thinks he will win NY state in the 2024 election because he says the people of NY are angry.

    The last presidential candidate to win NY was Reagan in 1980 and 1984.

    Comments by Trump supporters.

    As much as Trump's supporters say they hate Biden, some can't state even one attribute about him that they don't like, similar to Trump not being able to recite a simple passage from the Bible which he claims to know more about that anyone.
