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

    Donald Trump's many legal problems – and calls for protests – have generated new fears of political violence and anxiety about the 2024 election.

    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?

    This trial is evidently a shirt show with Trump acting up and mouthing off to the judge.

     
    Total disrespect for the law and the justice system.

    Obviously not everyone who voted for Trump is a MAGA extremist. It’s not an honest framing of what Biden said.

    "Kinda right about NATO...Kinda right about China...Kinda right about immigration...."


    Kinda how?

    Good grief. This whole "speaking half terms without commitment of facts" is endemic now.

    Let one of Dimons executives answer his question with "yes sir we kinda understand" and see how he takes it. Sigh.

    Figured out why Dimon is pissed:



    From Bloomberg:

    “JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s overdraft revenue climbed last year even as the company instituted a raft of changes designed to limit it, a sign that customers are once again having trouble keeping their accounts flush with cash.

    The largest U.S. bank collected $1.25 billion in overdraft-fee revenue, a 3% increase from 2021, according to data filed with regulators. That revenue dropped 65% for rival Bank of America Corp. and 9.3% for Wells Fargo & Co.”

    Context is key, lol. Shouldn’t a super good “journalist” been able to provide that context? Nah, he’d rather just insinuate there’s something about Biden that’s untoward.

    I could have sworn I was around for the Trump years, but maybe I was wrong. Everywhere I went in Iowa — even to the rallies of people who were actively trying to stop Donald Trump from being the next president — and everywhere I look on TV now, I keep hearing how wonderful the Trump years were.

    “The best president of the 21st century,” said Vivek Ramaswamy.


    “I think President Trump was the right president at the right time,” Nikki Haley said.


    The first few times, I thought it was a mistake. Then I thought maybe they were talking about a different Donald Trump. Then I thought maybe I was the last refugee from another timeline in which things went completely differently…..

    In the Trump presidency I kept getting told about, everything was completely different than I remembered. The sky was bluer then. The grass was greener, of course. People were really patriots.

    Men were stronger, right out of central casting, and their teeth were whiter, and they all wept and said, “Sir, sir, we will give you everything you want — not just at the border, where we have finished construction on a beautiful wall, but with the economy, too, and abroad.”

    Flags flew everywhere. You could go down to the corner store and get a cherry phosphate for a nickel, and God loved the country more than He has ever loved it before or since.


    I’m sorry, what year was this, again?


    “2017.”


    Who did you say this wonderful president was?


    Donald Trump?….

    If anything, the Trump campaign is better organized than before. And people are striding up enthusiastically to endorse him. Vivek Ramaswamy, Doug Burgum, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio!

    Don’t they know that this is Donald Trump? Donald Trump, twice impeached, who encouraged a mob to descend upon the Capitol “peacefully and patriotically” to intimidate Congress into overturning the election results? Am I the only one who remembers?

    I saw a baby at the caucuses. The baby was well-behaved and then at the end of the evening was gently bundled into its carrier by a parent in a Trump hat. Now, I can see why a baby would caucus for Donald Trump.

    The baby would hear Donald Trump say things like, “Under me, everything was good, nothing was bad. We were respected abroad and secure at home. I am very good at governing and I am excited to do more of it” and be like, “Maybe! I wasn’t alive for that. It could very well be the case! Also, I don’t understand language yet and I have no sense of object permanence. Every time I see Donald Trump it is a miracle, and I don’t know where he goes when he disappears. I hope he isn’t gone forever!”

    I understand this from a baby. But what’s everyone else’s excuse?……

    I remember three years of chaos, and then the fourth year was complete insanity. The pandemic obviously had a big part of why 2020 was a complete shirt show, but that administration seemed to make everything worse. It was like putting arsonists in charge of putting out fires, when the only thing they know how to do is throw gasoline on the flames.

    Trump’s a sexist oaf – so why does he appeal to so many women?

    Donald Trump is known to promote tough women into senior positions, yet he also has a rep as a boorish alpha male and has been back in court this week after being found liable last year for sexual abuse. Alex Hannaford unpicks the complicated ‘women problem’ of the man who would be president – again

    Trump‘s not an alpha male, he just plays one on TV. He’s a classic bully, craven and sniveling if you stand up to him.
