Trump's trade wars are an example. He used them to try to retaliate against every country that he thought treated him or the U.S. unfairly.

That includes retaliating on the U.S. itself, such as threatening U.S. companies with fines and taxes for what Trump perceives as behavior that is not loyal to him and his trade wars, such as a U.S. company moving some of its operations overseas to avoid the retaliatory tariffs of other countries that were caused by Trump starting trade wars.

 

Good luck, LOL!!

 

Trump's drive-by lies.


CNBC invited Trump on its air. The network didn’t even try to stop his lies | CNN Business

excerpt:

"Watching the CNBC interview felt like being transported in time to 2015, back when news outlets allowed Trump to phone in to news shows and deliver a drive-by of lies to their audiences. Even after the interview aired, CNBC waited hours to do the bare minimum and publish digital stories fact-checking some of Trump’s claims. Instead, the outlet quickly spliced Trump’s comments into a handful of clips and posted them online, amplifying his comments further."

Trump tried to move assets to Florida, NY officials complain in fraud-judgment filing

excerpt:

""Defendants attempted that relocation even as they claim to this Court that those assets 'cannot be summarily disposed of or secreted out of the jurisdiction,'" the attorney general's lawyers wrote, quoting Trump's own past assurances in their new filing, which totals 132 pages.

The filing asks a Manhattan-based appellate court to order Trump to post an appeal bond for the entirety of what he owes New York in fraud penalties.

Under last month's verdict, Trump now owes the state more than $456 million in fraud penalties, a number that rises by $1 million in additional interest every nine days."

 

Followup.

It's been anticipated that Trump might use an advice-of-counsel defense ploy just before his criminal trials begin as a way to further delay them.

Jack Smith requested that Trump be asked whether he will try to use such a tactic. He wanted to know in advance in order to prepare for Trump delaying the documents criminal trial at the last minute.

Trump reportedly is considering using the advice-of-counsel approach in the NY hush money criminal case.


Trump plans to blame attorneys’ advice for hush money scheme

excerpt:

"Donald Trump has notified the judge overseeing his imminent criminal trial in New York City that he intends to rely on a legal strategy that pins responsibility for allegedly criminal acts on the advice of his attorneys.

The former president is expected to argue, at least in part, that he can’t be held responsible for allegedly falsifying business records to conceal hush money payments to an adult film star because he was acting on the advice of his lawyers."

 

The video portraying Trump as if he's the same as a great American farmer is nauseating, particularly when the face of his son is shown, portraying him like like he is the son of the son of God (who supposedly created Donald Trump to save America).

It's an insult to the late Paul Harvey.

Trump's defense in hush money trial to stop short of blaming his lawyers

excerpt:

"NEW YORK (Reuters) - Donald Trump will stop short of blaming his lawyers for the conduct at issue in his upcoming trial on charges stemming from hush money paid to a porn star, the former president's current defense lawyers said in a filing made public on Tuesday.

He will not formally assert a so-called advice-of-counsel defense at the first-ever trial of a former U.S. president, due to begin March 25, Trump's lawyers said. But Trump's team does plan to argue that the involvement of his prior lawyers in the matter showed that he lacked criminal intent, they added."

 

Putin Recalls Trump Acting Like Jealous GF in Private

excerpt:

"Reiterating Moscow’s oft-repeated claim that the Kremlin is not interfering in American elections “in any way,” Putin said that Trump, “in the last year of his work as president… admonished me for the fact that I like Biden.”

“This was more than four years ago. He told me that in one conversation: ‘You want him to win.’ Excuse me, I’ll say it like he did, it’s just direct speech, ‘for Sleepy Joe to win.’ He told me this when he was still president,” he said."

 

Judge throws out 6 counts of Trump's Georgia election interference indictment

excerpt:

"The order from Judge Scott McAfee dismissed six counts related to a specific charge: Solicitation of Violation of Oath by a Public Officer.

Of the 13 counts Trump faced, three of them were tossed by the judge's order. Trump now faces 10 counts in the case."

excerpt:

"Musk, the world’s second-richest man, has increasingly voiced support for conservative ideology on X, including echoing Trump’s unverified claims that the Biden administration is, as Musk wrote last week, “importing voters and creating a national security threat from unvetted illegal immigrants.”"

 

Trump vows to 'free' Jan. 6 defendants as one of his first acts if elected

excerpt:

"My first acts as your next President will be to Close the Border, DRILL, BABY, DRILL, and Free the January 6 Hostages being wrongfully imprisoned!" Trump wrote on his Truth Social account.

It appeared to be the first time that he has definitively referred to releasing the Jan. 6 defendants as a Day One priority.

 

In the documents case, Judge Cannon denied Smith's request to know if Trump would use an advice-of-counsel tactic at the last minute. She said it could be determined later at an appropriate time.

Cannon also hasn't set a trial date for the documents trial. Smith requested July 8, 2024. Trump's team requested August. Yet Cannon didn't set a date even though both sides seemed to be in reasonable agreement to the date of the start of the trial..

A date of March 5, 2024 had been set but was removed after Trump used his 'absolute immunity' claim at the last minute. The documents trial was delayed when the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear Trump's claim after he lost badly in the federal appeals court, It could delay it until after the November 2024 election.

 

Trump's total felony charges are now 88 instead of 91.

The way the U.S. voting public thinks, that may give him a boost to beat Biden who has no criminal charges.

 

What Biden needs is 91 felony charges against him and 10 thrown out later to reduce it to 81.

That would boost his perception by the voting public and perhaps enough to win reelection.
