Trump: Tiny D sucks and nobody should vote for him
DeSantis: I will do everything in my power to defend the great Donald J. Trump I'm expecting it won't be long before DeSantis decides he has unfinished business in FL or needs to spend time with his young kids or something else that will explain away why he isn't running in 2024.

trump has said that his indictment is "an attack on this country, the likes of which has never been seen before"
There you have it. trump being indicted is bigger than Pearl Harbor and 9/11. Bigger than the sinking of the Lusitania. Bigger than literally anything, ever in the history of the country. Not that we're feeling hyperbolic or anything. It's REAL.

These MAGA idiots may have an actual argument for this case if they hadn't been chanting "lock her up" for 7 years.

Just stunning how many GOPers want to be rid of him but are still volunteering to dive onto the hand grenade to protect him.

I wonder how many would go back to the first impeachment and get rid of him when they had the chance?
I really is wild how he has destroyed the party. Go against him and lose your primary, go with him and lose the general. Other than through attrition I'm not sure how they get past that cycle. |

The GOP establishment knows how to get rid of politicians it actually wants to get rid of. See, e.g., Madison Cawthorn.
They like Trump. They agree with Trump. They want Trump in charge. If they didn't, he'd be out of the picture by now. They just keep leaking to the media that they don't like him in order to try and keep moderate voters in their camp. Last edited by albionmoonlight : 03-31-2023 at 08:01 AM. |

We live in a world where a former president and the leading candidate of one of the two major parties is referencing a twitter poll from someone named Catturd. And people wonder why we are a laughing stock. Oh, and the thing about the Central Park Five! WTF. He is totally unhinged

I think there are plenty of GOPer electeds that would love to be rid of Trump, DeSantis chief among them, but they all worry that being even slightly anti-Trump is a Cheney-like death sentence for their political careers. None of them, though, can take over until they are rid of Trump.

I think the reasoning has changed a bit, though. At first, I think they were scared he had so much influence over most of the party that to cross him meant certain political death from blowback. Now, I think the calculus is more likely that he still holds enough sway with a certain number of voters that they are afraid those voters won't turn out at all if they go against Trump. Most of the party is fine with someone else, but you've got this diehard Trump group who just won't show up to vote if you're a "trader."

Speaking of Trumpers, I see that Lauren Boebert has said she's not going to "nitpick" the Bible about right and wrong after her 17 year old son got his GF pregnant. Funny how that works.

I would like to see a profile of the voter that wasn't going to vote for Trump in the general election but will now because he is soon to be indicted.

I'm impressed DeSantis went straight to anti-Semitism in defending Trump since there's a sizeable Jewish population in Florida.

See, I don't think there's much of anybody that wouldn't have voted Trump in 2024 that now will. The voter that is motivated by indictments is a voter already clearly in the MAGA box.
Now I get how this helps him in the primary, but felony indictment isn't a positive for the general.

Don't have a link yet but the judge in the Dominion vs Fox case basically threw out everything Fox wanted, sided with Dominion on Fox pushing false election results, and sent the "malice" part to Trial.

It is a 130 page order, so there is a huge amount there. Looks like your summary is the gist. Fox did knowingly lie, now whether it was malice or not is all that is left to adjudicate.

Looking forward to hearing key Fox personalities testify (and squirm under oath). The lawsuit is for $1.6B in damages. Fox 2022 net income was $1.5B.

I don't know shit about such law but I read it suggested by some rando that this lawsuit could also lead to punitive damages that could potentially multiply that judgment.

That would be great.
My guess is Fox will be found guilty. I'm just not sure Dominion could show (or the jury would award) $1.6B in damages. Last edited by Edward64 : 03-31-2023 at 10:10 PM. |

Get some of those dot com bros who convince VCs to give them hundreds of millions of dollars to gin up what Dominion could have made, and they could be looking at 12 figures in damages.

It won't happen, and it would be silly of him to do it.
But if Trump snuck into Russia right now for asylum, would that be the biggest political story in American history? |

I agree, not gonna happen. But the documents case is pretty serious. Even Barr seems to think he's likely fucked on that one. I can't imagine the hell his defense attorneys go through. Hannity threw him a softball question to lead Trump into defending himself and instead of taking it he admitted to the crime. Putting him on the stand to defend himself is completely off the table. |

His best defense in the documents case, after Pence and Biden had documents, was going go be that it's wrong but not outside the norm. Trump is doing everything in his power to destroy that defense. He's doubled down on him having every right to those documents and admitted to Hannity that he purposely took them. If they have video and testimony that he went through the documents after the subpoena to separate and hide what he wanted to keep then he has no defense other than trying to frame the Presidential Records Act as something that it is clearly not. |

Him having the documents isn't the story. It is him refusing to give them back. That is the difference between the Trump case and Biden/Pence. However his cult followers won't see it that way.
They will truly defend him no matter how obvious it is he committed the crime. |

dola- I still stand by the statement that nothing will happen to him. By the time any of these cases could actually go to trial he will likely be the party nominee for President and nothing will happen to him. I get the need for accuracy but at some point you also have to realize you're up against a clock. I don't get what is taking so long in Georgie especially. He said what he said, hasn't denied it. So either charge him or don't.
