For someone who can't name a verse from the Bible, Donald Trump lecturing people about their religion seems ridiculous www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/03/18/donald-trump-jewish-voters/Trump says Jewish Democrats ‘hate’ their religion and Israel By Mariana Alfaro Updated March 18, 2024 Former president Donald Trump again claimed that the Democratic Party “hates Israel” and that Jewish Americans who vote for Democrats “hate” their religion, echoing previous attacks he has made about Jewish Democrats.
“I think they hate Israel,” Trump said of Democrats. He then said that Democrats “see a lot of votes” among Americans who oppose the Israel-Gaza war. The comments were part of a lengthy interview with far-right former adviser Sebastian Gorka that was posted online Monday.
“Any Jewish person that votes for Democrats hates their religion,” Trump added.

The Left: We dishonestly clipped off Trump's words that debunk our claim that "Trump called for violence" but he really called for violence. Trust us.
The Left: Now that we got caught, yes we lied, but Trump really meant it since, THIS hoax is real because it agrees with our other hoaxes.
The Left: Yes we lied, and yes it was another hoax, but he really meant it because, he's speaking in some magical code.

Ha ha. The idea of Trump spending any of his own money on his campaign is ridiculous. He doesn't even pay his own legal bills, why would he donate money to his campaign? I think he spent about $50 million on his 2016 campaign, but the RNC paid that much illegal fees for him last year.
For someone who claims to be a billionaire, he sure is having a hard time coming up with the cash for his fraud case. He's broke but just 3 weeks ago, he was bragging about how much money he had. Earlier today, he bragged that Mar-a-Lago was worth 1, 2 billion, who knows? If Mar-a-Lago was worth even remotely close to what he's claiming, it wouldn't be that hard for him to get a loan to pay the bond. The only thing that is consistent with him is that he lies, especially about his personal finances.

I agree that the “bloodbath” comment was said when he was talking about the auto industry and not just a general comment…HOWEVER if you think that when he said it he was only speaking about the auto industry and that he was not trying to insinuate anything else than I have a bridge to sell you.Listen to his comments: "Now, if I don't get elected, it's gonna be a bloodbath for the whole -- that's gonna to be the least of it -- it's gonna be a bloodbath for the country. That'll be the least of it," he said.
for the whole??? Industry ? That is what he knew he should say but purposely made it a comment that is not just talking about the car industry. And anyone paying attention or who knows Trump’s m.o. will have a hard time denying that…or at least they should. 😉 |

Trump's unhinged rantIn this one post:
- Donald Trump calls NY AG Letitia James a racial slur.
- Trump calls the NY AG a fraud.
- Trump implies Judge Engoron is a fake judge.
- Trump falsely claims the judge invented the valuation of his Mar-a-Lago property and again lies about the valuation of his property, exactly the kind of fraud he was found liable for in his trial.
- Trump accuses the AG and the judge of criminal acts.
- Trump fear mongers about businesses leaving the city and state.
- Trump fear mongers about migrants and calls them criminals (crime is way down in NY).
- Trump calls being prosecuted for fraud a “witch hunt.”

He was talking about the auto industry but then zoomed out and said "bloodbath for the country". That'll be the least of it refers to the auto industry. If he was still talking about the auto industry when he said bloodbath, he would have phrased it differently. I get that bloodbath can be used in an economic sense. But, bloodbath in terms of higher tarrifs that he was proposing vs. the current levels, if Biden is re-elected, does not make sense. Cars from China currently have a 27% tariff. |

A great summary of support for Trump, his finances, Navarro and January 6. And there might be another embarrassing hearing for the Republicans. I love that Jamie Raskin and other Democrats have finally figured out how to counter Republican “investigations”. heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/march-19-2024In Florida, Kansas, Ohio, Illinois, and Arizona, Republican voters chose their presidential candidate today. The results highlight the weaknesses former president Trump is bringing to the 2024 presidential contest.
Trump, who is the only person still in the Republican race, won all five of today’s Republican races. But the results showed that his support is soft. Results are still coming in, but as I write this, former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley, who has suspended her campaign, received between 13% and 20% of the vote, Florida governor Ron DeSantis—who has also suspended his campaign—picked up votes, and “none of the names shown” got more than 5% in Kansas.
Even in Ohio, where Trump’s preferred Senate candidate won, Trump received less than 80% of the Republican vote. After NBC News conducted an exit poll in Ohio, MSNBC producer Kyle Griffin reported that of Ohio Republican primary voters—who are typically the most committed party members—11% said they would vote for Biden in November and another 8% said they wouldn’t vote for either Trump or Biden.
Trump has money problems, too. This morning, Brian Schwartz of CNBC reported that while Trump has pushed Haley voters away, Biden’s team has courted both voters and Haley donors to help Biden defeat Trump. Schwartz said that at least a half dozen former Haley fundraisers have decided to help Biden.
Aside from the Haley supporters who are moving to Biden, Trump’s campaign faces a money crunch. As Schwartz reported yesterday, small donors have slowed down their financial support for Trump considerably, possibly because of fatigue after 9 years of Trump’s supercharged fundraising pitches. Big donors have also been holding back funds out of concern that they will not go toward electing Republicans, but rather will be used to pay Trump’s legal fees.
On March 14, Trump’s people organized a new joint fundraising committee, called the Trump 47 Committee. It is designed to split the money it gets between state Republican parties, the Republican National Committee, and Trump’s Save America Political Action Committee (PAC). As Schwartz notes, Save America spent $24 million on Trump’s legal bills in the last six months of 2023.
While running for president is pricey, so is breaking the law. The former president continues to rail against the law that he must deposit either money or a bond to cover the court-ordered $454 million he owes in penalties, disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, and interest, after he and the Trump Organization were found liable for fraud. “I would be forced to mortgage or sell Great Assets, perhaps at Fire Sale prices, and if and when I win the Appeal, they would be gone. Does that make sense? WITCH HUNT. ELECTION INTERFERENCE!” Trump posted on his social media channel.
Lisa Mascaro, Mary Clare Jalonick, and Jill Colvin of the Associated Press wrote today that Trump is putting the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol at the heart of his presidential campaign, rewriting the five deaths and the destruction to claim that the rioters were “unbelievable patriots” whom he will pardon as soon as he takes office again. His new hires at the Republican National Committee to replace staff he fired are strengthening the idea that Biden stole the 2020 election.
He’s being helped by loyalists in Congress who are trying to rewrite the history of that day to claim that Trump and the rioters have been persecuted by the Department of Justice. They are attacking the testimony of witnesses like Cassidy Hutchinson, former aide to former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, about what she saw that day, although she testified under oath and they are not similarly bound to tell the truth. Trump has said former Wyoming representative Liz Cheney, a Republican who served as vice chair of the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol, “should go to Jail along with the rest of the Unselect Committee!”
But while Trump’s supporters are willing to sing along to a recording of incarcerated participants in the riots singing their version of the national anthem—the song lyrics are credited to “Donald J. Trump and J6 Prison Choir”—the fact that more than 1,200 people have been charged for their actions that day and many of them have been sentenced to prison seems likely to dampen enthusiasm for trying something like that again.
Today, former Trump advisor Peter Navarro also had to report to prison, in his case a federal prison in Miami, for refusing to comply with a subpoena from the January 6th committee for documents and testimony. Last September, a jury found Navarro guilty of contempt of Congress, rejecting his insistence that he didn’t have to answer to Congress because Trump had invoked executive privilege over their conversations about overturning the 2020 presidential election.
Navarro vowed to take the case all the way to the Supreme Court, but a federal appeals court agreed with the verdict, and yesterday, for the Supreme Court, Chief Justice John Roberts rejected Navarro’s plea to stay his sentence. “I am pissed—that’s what I am feeling right now,” Navarro told reporters just before he reported to prison for his four-month sentence.
Trump is also facing renewed scrutiny on his past behavior. With the election interference case in Manhattan heating up, Trump sought to block his former fixer Michael Cohen, adult film actress Stormy Daniels, and former model Karen McDougal from testifying. All of them say Trump paid to keep voters from hearing negative stories about him before the 2016 election. Judge Juan Merchan denied those motions.
And there was a surprise announcement today. Tomorrow, the House Oversight Committee will hold another hearing in the Republicans’ ongoing attempt to impeach President Joe Biden. Today the Democrats on the committee announced they have invited Lev Parnas as their witness. The Ukrainian-born Parnas was an associate of Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani and was deeply involved in the effort to create dirt to smear Biden before the 2020 election.
In 2022, Parnas was convicted of wire fraud, false statements, and breaking campaign finance laws by funneling money illegally to Trump and other Republican lawmakers. Since he broke with Giuliani, he has been eager to explain what happened and how. He will likely bring up stories that Trump would prefer that voters forget.
Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD), the top Democrat on the Oversight Committee, told reporters: “Lev Parnas can debunk the bogus claims at the heart of the impeachment probe and, in the process, explain how the GOP ended up in this degraded and embarrassing place.” |

I'm wondering ifTrump made some of his comments on Saturday. knowing that they would get a lot of attention. Hoping would be a distraction and there would be less attention on his inability to pay his bond? I'm assuming he knew on Saturday that his lawyers would be filing an affidavit to that effect today. www.npr.org/2024/03/18/1239242523/trump-bond-civil-fraud-caseTrump unable to post $450M bond in New York fraud case, his lawyers say MARCH 18, 2024 By Andrea Bernstein Lawyers for former president and presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump say coming up with the bond on roughly half a billion dollars while he appeals his New York fraud judgment is a "practical impossibility."
Trump's lawyers say they've approached 30 companies through four brokers and none will accept his real estate holdings as a guarantee on the bond for $454 million and argue the judgment is unconstitutionally high. They filed an affidavit from an insurance broker saying it is "not possible" to find a bond that big. The broker was an expert witness for Trump during the trial.I don’t think he is that smart. His thoughts/speech just “flows” as someone here put it recently. When he said “if I don’t win” his thoughts went to the bloodbath that he wants/expects from the country, dand all thoughts of the auto industry were lost. That’s what it sounded like. He got sidetracked for a moment then went back to his former train of thought, the auto industry. No matter what he knows saying stuff like this will attract some of his followers and they hear that snd will then take it to heart. He loses we must do this. Just like the 1/6 people. |

I ask earlier and was wondering if you agreed with Trump’s thoughts on Cheney that he posted: SHE SHOULD BE PROSECUTED FOR WHAT SHE HAS DONE TO OUR COUNTRY! SHE ILLEGALLY DESTROYED THE EVIDENCE. UNREAL!!!” Do you believe this to be true? |
