Anxiety surges as Donald Trump may be indicted soon: Why 2024 is 'the final battle' and 'the big one'​


WASHINGTON – It looks like American politics is entering a new age of anxiety, triggered by an unprecedented legal development: The potential indictment of a former president and current presidential candidate.

Donald Trump's many legal problems – and calls for protests by his followers – have generated new fears of political violence and anxiety about the unknowable impact all this will have on the already-tense 2024 presidential election


I’ll reframe this is a more accurate way, Are Presidents above the law? This new age was spurred into existence when home grown dummies elected a corrupt, mentally ill, anti-democratic, would be dictator as President and don’t bother to hold him responsible for his crimes, don’t want to because in the ensuing mayhem and destruction, they think they will be better off. The man is actually advocating violence (not the first time). And btw, screw democracy too. If this feeling spreads, we are In deep shirt.

This goes beyond one treasonous Peice of work and out to all his minions. This is on you or should we be sympathetic to the idea of they can’t help being selfish suckers to the Nation’s detriment? Donald Trump is the single largest individual threat to our democracy and it‘s all going to boil down to will the majority of the GOP return to his embrace and start slinging his excrement to support him?
 
After he was elected president in 2016, Donald Trump applied a rather scattershot approach to his efforts to effect his promised policy changes. This was in part a function of the resistance some efforts faced from Congress (like repealing the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare) or from the courts (like his ban on immigration from Muslim countries) and in part because they weren’t practical in the first place (having Mexico pay for a wall on the border).

Were he to win election again this year, those factors are likely to still be in play. Yes, he knows better how government works and would probably be less concerned about having more ambitious efforts challenged in court, but Congress will still be narrowly divided, and bad ideas are still bad ideas.

That said, though, some of what Trump has said he’d enforce should he win a second term is likely to end up being attempted. New polling from YouGov, shared exclusively with The Washington Post, indicates that most Americans won’t be very happy when they are. On 30 policy ideas presented to a national pool of respondents, 22 saw a majority oppose the idea. Only four had majority approval.

Among those four are two centered on transgender Americans. The policy that fared best, with 57 percent of adults offering at least some support, was banning hormonal or surgical treatments for transgender minors. The third most popular policy was Trump’s proposal to legally limit the number of recognized genders in the United States.

The other two that received majority support were related to immigration. One, reflecting other recent YouGov polling, indicated majority support for the policy known as “remain in Mexico.” The other saw a narrow majority of Americans express support for deporting thousands of immigrants in the country illegally.

That was it. While a majority of Republicans generally supported the other proposals — and a majority of those who said they planned to support Trump in the Republican primary backed all but four, no other policies saw the support of a majority of respondents.............



 
This is the talk of a desperate man. I wonder what his internal polling is telling him, as opposed to the polls they release to the public?

 
This isn’t the first time he has suggested that if he gets elected again, he will be president longer than 4 years.

 
Here is where Trump tries to act like a tough guy - without saying that of course the judge won’t do anything to him if he skips the trial. He never showed up at the first one anyway, his presence isn’t required. Which is why the judge wouldn’t allow him to delay the trial for his MIL funeral in the first place.

 
This is why we need fact checkers. Ask yourself, who benefits if fact checkers are denigrated? It’s not America, that’s for sure.
