    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?

    Didn’t Trump claim that Harris should be disqualified because she was using AI images (she wasn’t)? This isn’t the first time he’s reposted these types of fake images, either.

     
    Well, this field office opening didn’t go as planned. Behind a paywall, but I can see the first 2 paragraphs.

    “An altercation broke out at a recent Donald Trump campaign office opening in Valdosta when a conservative activist confronted a Republican state legislator who sponsored changes to the state’s election laws, according to interviews and a police report.

    The scuffle took place near the end of the campaign’s office opening on July 29, an otherwise celebratory event that drew dozens of attendees and several Republican state legislators. No charges were filed, though authorities say the confrontation turned physical.”

    Update from Neil Vigdor

    What other president has sold stuff while on the campaign trail?

    “Donald Trump on Wednesday promoted the upcoming release of a coffee table book titled, “Save America,” that features photos from his presidency and his current campaign. ”

    This is Trump circumventing campaign finance laws. He can't personally use or keep donations to his campaign, but he can personally use and keep any revenue from the sell of campaign related items.

    The kicker: I bet all of the products he sells are produced outside of the US and most likely in China, even if they have a "Made in USA" stamp on them.
     
    Putting this here because Trump has often expressed his admiration for Xi - how he rules his people with an iron fist. This is what Trump would like to do:

     
    McMaster’s book details the hold Putin has on Trump, from an article in The Guardian:

    “Vladimir Putin exploited Donald Trump’s “ego and insecurities” to exert an almost mesmeric hold over the former US president, who refused to entertain any negative evaluation of the autocratic Russian leader from his own staff, and ultimately fired his national security adviser, HR McMaster, over it.”

    When Putin poisoned 2 UK citizens in March 2018, McMaster writes this:

    “While other western leaders were beginning to formulate a strong response to the assassination attempt, McMaster says, Trump sat in the White House fawning over a New York Post article with the headline: “Putin heaps praise on Trump, pans US politics”. Trump, according to the book, wrote an appreciative note on the article with a black Sharpie and asked McMaster “to get the clipping to Putin”.”

    McMaster eventually retrieved the note from an aide and it didn’t get sent. The book goes on to describe how Putin flattered Trump constantly to manipulate him, and Trump wouldn’t listen to McMaster’s warnings.

    Wish McMaster would tell this story on stage at the DNC during prime time.
