Blue Cities Do Not Want to Host Trump rallies – especially El Paso

Besides of the obvious reasons that the city government under Democratic control would not want to host Donald Trump in their city for one of his rallies. Why? Because Donald J. Trump just doesn’t pay his bills.

Trump held a rally on February 11, 2019 at the El Paso County Coliseum.

During the re-election campaign while president 4 years ago, he drummed up a $500K bill with the city for the El Paso rally that he held. He has yet to pay up. So, the city of El Paso has just added a delinquency charge of $98,757.58 cents to his bill. Trump’s original bill was $470,417.05. That’s a 21% premium added to his bill.

The ‘law and order candidate’ stiffed the city for the following costs…

$60,630.84 – Fire Department Costs

$6,286.57 – Department of Aviation Costs

$528 – Health Department costs

$15,577.52 – Mass transit costs

$380,942.12 – Police Department costs

In May 2019 the city wrote the following statement was delivered with a delinquent invoice which reads the following:

“We are contacting you regarding the past due invoices(s) listed above. We realize this may have been an oversight on your part; however, your account with the city of El Paso is extremely past due.”

Another city he owes money to is Bozeman, Montana, which he still owes nearly $13,000. It was for police salaries and owes for officer pay of another $45,000. In 2019, all in total, ““Trump owed various municipalities “at least” $841,219 for services provided.””

Donald Trump continues to show why he is the most corrupt  person to ever run for President of the United States, including when he actually was President.

In November, Donald Trump will be responsible for many things. Right at the moment, he is charged for hijacking the Republican Party, as they proudly and openly want a convicted felon to be their party’s nominee in the upcoming election, and it looks as if they are getting their wish. Trump will eventually be responsible for the massive loss that the Republican Party will have across the ticket, including with elections in the House and Senate. Kamala Harris, if elected president, she may have a total majority in both the House and Senate, because Donald Trump will surely affect the down-ballot races.

Continue to see more hate and division by Donald Trump and the Republican Party. Continue to see the Vice-President and Governor Tim Walz continue to pull away from Trump in the polls. Be sure to watch how Kamila Harris takes Donald Trump apart at the upcoming debate(s). Also, be sure to watch how J.D. Vance is taken to town by Tim Walz in the Vice-Presidential debates to occur soon.

Realization still has not set in for the Republican Party, as they still have their ‘blinders’ on. The last midterm election should have been ample proof that their path at the time regarding who they supported earned them a terrific loss in the Senate, and they barely were able to gain the House. They were Trump supported candidates. This time around, because of Donald J. Trump, it is my belief that both the House and Senate will go down in flames for the Republicans, and after her election, President-Elect Harris will have an easy path to get her bills passed in Congress with the majority that she will inherit, thanks to Trump.

Vance Treading of Water after Comments about Governor Tim Walz

It’s been less than a month and a lot has been happening on the political front concerning Donald Trump. This article is about the record of Donald J. Trump and his running mate J.D. Vance for vice-president. It’s also kind of a diary of the candidates.

Donald Trump was shot in Butler, Pennsylvania during a rally speech. A bullet glazed his right ear. He recovers quickly.

Donald Trump attends the Republican National Convention a week later and is confirmed to be the Republican Party candidate for the Presidency, to run against Joe Biden. He formally named J.D. Vance, from Ohio, as his Vice-President.

Donald Trump polls pulled way ahead of President Joe Biden, either in sympathy for Trump getting shot, or for the lack of Joe Biden’s support from the Democratic Party after a failed debate that made Donald Trump the true leader nationwide by the electorate in most all polls.

President Joe Biden decides to pull out of the race for the betterment of the country before being confirmed at the DNC, because of his lackluster performance and the acknowledgement that he doesn’t have enough time to recoil from the bad debate, no matter how much he wanted to run a second term. He would have been the oldest person to ever run for the presidency if he continued to run. He came down with Covid just prior to announcing he was not going to run.

Trump takes advantage of Joe Biden’s dropping out of the presidential race and claims that he beat Joe Biden and that the Dems do not have a viable candidate to run against him.

But then, Joe Biden passes the baton to his Vice-President, Kamala Harris to run for Vice-President of the United States, and polls in just a few short weeks turn around.

The story continues here, with Donald Trump, now the oldest candidate to run against a Democratic Candidate for President of the United States.

Donald Trump refused to accept in his mind that Kamal Harris, the Vice President of the United States, was going to run against him, let alone beat him in the election. Then, Trump doubles down on his doubt when the Vice-President chooses her running mate, Tim Walz, the sitting governor of Minnesota.

During this time, Donald Trump only took on a couple of debates, and mostly watched from the comforts of his Mar-a-Lago residence, the rise of Kamal Harris and Tim Walz, as poll after poll leads are changed into the Democrats column, including battleground states.

Trump continues his denial and claims that he is so far ahead of Kamala, that he doesn’t need to rally in earnest because he still believes he can win without debating so much. He originally turns down a debate date of September 10, 2024, because he claimed that it was to be held on the ABC network, and he now wanted the first debate on Fox News. He was willing to debate Biden, but he has no gut to debate a woman, especially Kamala Harris.

Kamal Harris refuses to accept a September 4, 2024, debate date proposed by Donald Trump, and she claimed she would attend a September 10th town hall even if Trump did not show up to debate, with an empty lectern with Trump’s name on it, and discuss her views for 90 minutes without Trump on that night.

She continued to hold her rally marathon in several key battleground states.

In the meanwhile, neither Trump nor Vance knows how to counterpunch against the very popular Democratic Candidates.

Last weekend, on August 10th and 11th, finally J.D. Vance comes out to defend himself and Donald Trump.

But instead of sticking to the script, he decided to try and take the news story and raise his concerns mainly against Tim Walz. As a veteran, he talked against the record of Tim Walz, who was in the Army National Guard for 24 years. Since when would a comrad service person talk against another? Only in the era of Donald Trump.

Just under a month before George H.W. Bush decided to draft the National Guard in a foreign war, Tim Walz decided to step down, not because of the Iraq war on the forefront, but because he wanted to after 24 years of service. He stepped down about a month prior to President Bush recruiting the National Guard into a foreign war, so Walz did not know his unit may be going into battle.

Before I go on here, let this be CLEAR. The Army National Guard was not instituted to send its people to foreign wars. They are to help protect this country, IN THIS COUNTRY. What happened was that President Bush knew that the draft would be very unpopular if he instituted it again, so he did in his mind was the next best thing, to deploy our Army National Guard to a foreign war. That meant that our home soil was now being less guarded for national issues that may arise in the country where troops would be needed, i.e. helping with hurricanes, flooding, etc. and even to defend our southern border with Mexico if necessary. You don’t have to believe what I say, as I never served in the Army, Air Force, Army or Marines. But here is a transcript of a conversation with Jessie “the body’ Ventura, a prior Governor of Minnesota, elected in 1998. Here what he had to say about Governor Tim Walz, and the U.S. National Guard.

“First and foremost, any point after 20 years you can retire when you want to. Second, Vance is missing the point. What he ought to be asking is this… Why is the National Guard being shipped out and fighting in foreign wars and other lands that isn’t their role? Their role is to be here in our nation, protecting us inside our own country. That’s why they are called the National Guard. What happened was that George Bush and Dick Cheney, when they started their folly with the Iraq war, they needed bodies. They couldn’t bring back the draft. It would be political suicide. So what did they do? Bush signed an executive order now sending our National Guard over in the world combat zones. That is ridiculous. That is for the regular military to be doing. That’s for the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, not the National Guard, and besides, that Governor Walz already had 24 years in. He’s an E9 and and E9 doesn’t go out on patrol. An E9 doesn’t lead a demolition raid. E9’s are the highest enlisted belonging to that particular unit. They come out with the commanding officer, and they have a rapport with the CEO and the head enlisted. It’s a relatively honor position, more than it is any else. So Walt’s deploying and Vance is worried about that? I think Vance is doing a disservice to the United States Marine Corps, because I know a lot of great Marines, and Marines show respect. That’s the one thing you get out of a Marine, is respect. And Vance ought to look in the mirror and behave like a Marine.”

And again, if you do not believe me, watch two videos that can be watched right here… and you won’t find this truth on FOX NEWS.

Governor  Jessie “the body” Ventura VIDEO on MSNBC

Governor Jessie “the body” Ventura VIDEO #2 on CNN

Like Walz, Vance enlisted right out of high school. He served four years in the Marine Corps and was deployed to Iraq for about six months in 2005 and 2006. I praise him for his service.  But, he worked in public affairs and was never in combat, though that does not mean he was never in danger. So Vance is trying to proclaim here that his 6 months of service to his country is a better record than Governor Walz’s record because the Governor never served in a war.

But then, Vance could not leave it alone. He had to further attack Walz’s relationship with his wife, when he shook the hand of his wife after one of his speeches at a rally instead of giving her a kiss. Vance claims that he shouldn’t be called weird, that Tim Walz should be labeled as weird. That’s the best J.D. Vance can do at the moment.

Wow. Now it becomes personal for Tim Walz, and Vance truly doesn’t know what going to head his way. He’s got a VP debate coming up with Governor Walz. Actually Donald Trump’s decisions, which is what this website is all about is proof that although Vance does not like some actions by Governor Walz, he now runs with a failed prior president, who refused to kiss his wife at the Republican National Convention just a few weeks ago, and at that time, just about a month ago, Trump shook her hand at that time, instead of kissing her in front of the entire RNC convention and national TV. DO YOU REMEMBER THAT, SHADY VANCE?

Trump was found liable for sexual assault.

Trump is on video about sexually assaulting women.

Trump has filed for bankruptcy many times in the past

Donald Trump has been convicted of Fraud  by Justice Author Engoron and must pay a $355 million suit against him in a no jury case because of Trump’s attorneys failed to file motions in time for a jury case.

He is facing another sentancing by Judge Merchan in a conviction of 34 counts around September 16, a week after the debate with Kamal Harris.

Trump has been charged in another case, but it has been thrown out in the election subversion case against him the night before the RNC by Aileen Cannon in Florida. Donald Trump feels vindicated and claimed he was unjustly accused, but as soon as the election is over and if Trump does not win the election, he will be back in court with a different judge.

In Fulton County, Georgia, which includes most of Atlanta, District Attorney Fani Willis brought a huge racketeering case against Trump and 18 others, alleging a conspiracy that spread across weeks and states with the aim of stealing the 2020 election. This case is indefinitely postponed, as with the Immunity decision, making Donald J. Trump above the law while acting in his office as president, as now he believed he may not get charged at all. The case against him may get reduced because of the Supreme Court’s recent decision on Immunity of a president, but he still will be charged in Georgia for a substantial amount of crimes.

Donald J. Trump gave a speech to young republicans in New York that the bravest thing he ever did as was told to him by a military general was bragging that when he bragged about sexually assaulting women that it was locker room talk. He actually claimed that it was courageous to call that sexually assaulting women locker room talk.

Now on the lighter side if you consider this lighter, how about these  decisions of Donald J. Trump.

He has marriages with three separate women. His first wife, Ivana, accused him of sexually assaulting her. She later retracted her statement, but was she forced to retract the statement or not? Just the idea that she would even state it the first time raises questions about Donald Trump. Of course, he denies everything and lies about most everything, as no other president candidate for the highest office in the land has ever been a confirmed liar more than Donald Trump.

A book has been written by Ivana who is now deceased has retracted her statement about being raped by Donald Trump after an argument. She fell down the steps at one of Donald Trump’s golf courses and died. She’s buried at the gulf course, in a grave site that is overgrown with grass and weeds.

Is this the kind of person you want as your next President of the United States, someone who promotes Project 2025 even though he lies about that.

To get back on topic, let’s now hear in a video posted by MeidasTouch with the commentator who is also an attorney, published in a video about J.D. Vance and Donald J. Trump. Instead of having I transcribe it for you, it is important that you hear it for yourselves.

Here is the video in its entirety. View it and form your own opinion about J. D. (Shady) Vance and Donald Trump, as stated by Ben Meiselas who moderates the video.


redirect=’https://trumpdecisionpoints.com’
Over the weekend in a CNN interview, which spurred the MeidasTouch video, this is what Vance said:

“I had just been announced as a VP nominee. I gave my big speech, and I saw my wife, and I gave her a big hug and a kiss, because I love my wife, and I think that’s what a normal person does. Tim Walz gave his wife a nice, firm Midwestern handshake, and then tried to sort of awkwardly correct for it. So, I think that what it is, two people, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, who aren’t comfortable in their own skin because they aren’t comfortable with their policy positions for the American people, and so they’re name calling instead of actually telling the American people how they’re going to make their lives better. I think that’s weird. Dana, but like that, they can call me whatever they want to.”

It is obvious to me that J.D. Vance did not really watch a single complete rally by Kamala and Tim. I would be ignorant to think that, as he watched them of course, but in order to be Trump’s gofer VP pick, he has to lie as much as he does. I hope he has time to watch the Democratic National Convention that conveines from August 19th through the 22nd.   At every rally, Tim Walz and Kamala Harris proclaim their records of service, and they have fun doing it, because it’s all true. J.D. Vance doesn’t have a record like theirs.  Vance never governed and never was a Vice-President, and in my opinion, is too young with his lack of a resume in public service to be one step away from the presidency.

But I give J.D. Vance one plus regarding his updated resume, if that’s what you call it, as he is building it every day he runs with the disgraced ex-president. He’s trying to catch up to Donald Trump’s lie telling. He will get called out on it, especially on this website. The more Trump and Vance lies about Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, the further down they will fall in the polls. The American electorate has their number.

The Fight is ON to Reverse the Supreme Court Immunity Ruling

 

The Supreme Court has decided that Presidents are above the law by issuing their immunity decision that allows presidents to break laws in office and as long as it was an official act, he cannot be prosecuted for it.  The ruling stems from a very Conservative Supreme Court, where there are 6 Republican elected justices and only 3 from the Democrats. The court also ruled that a woman no longer has control over her own body when it comes to reproductive rights, that the states can now decide the fate if a woman can have an abortion or not, even when the pregnancy was due to a rape.

Representative Joseph Moselle, who is a Democrat from the state of New York, introduced a constitutional amendment on July 24th, 2024 that will undue the high court’s decision that former presidents enjoy a presumption of criminal immunity for official acts.

No one, whether you are in high office, the highest office or a citizen of the United States, should have absolute immunity for actions that fall within the core responsibilities of their office and are “presumptively immune” for all other acts that are deemed official.

Only Donald Trump would have ever filed a suit regarding his federal election subversion case in Washington, D.C. because he is corrupt and is trying to save himself of crimes he committed in office. As a convicted felon, he will now try and have those convictions overturned, but in the State Case where he was convicted, that may prove more difficult. In a few months, Trump will face a judge that will sentence him on his crimes.

Since the Supreme Court made a ruling on a constitutional issue, their decisions are final and cannot be challenged unless a constitutional amendment is introduced that the high court will visit again.

This country runs with the idea that NO person is above the law, and that is to include presidents. This country never had a person such as Trump as our president.

The bottom line here, Moselle said “Presidents are not monarchy, they are not tyrants, and shall not be immune”.

 

 

Supreme Court Grants Trump Broad Immunity for Official Acts, Placing Presidents Above the Law

Case: Trump v. United States
Affiliate: ACLU of Washington, D.C.
July 1, 2024 11:45 am

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court today ruled that former President Trump is at least presumptively immune from criminal liability for his official acts, and is absolutely immune for some “core” of them — including his attempts to use the Justice Department to obstruct the results of the election. With respect to Trump’s other actions, the court left to the lower courts much of the work required to determine which are immune and which are not. At bottom, though, the court’s 6-3 majority freed presidents to use their official powers to engage in criminal acts substantially free of accountability.

The court granted absolute immunity to President Trump’s use of the Justice Department for fraudulent purposes. With respect to other allegations in the indictment, it sent the case back to the lower courts to determine whether actions for which former President Trump has been charged were official acts or personal acts, and whether the government can rebut the presumption that former President Trump is immune for those official acts. The court did reject former President Trump’s claim to absolute immunity for all acts unless convicted after an impeachment trial, characterizing its ruling as endorsing a “far broader immunity than the limited one” the court “recognized” today.

The American Civil Liberties Union and ACLU of the District of Columbia filed a friend-of-the-court brief arguing that the U.S. Constitution and decades of Supreme Court precedent support the principle that nobody is above the law — even the president. While the court found that a president’s actions as a private individual are not immune to criminal prosecution, it held that presidents do have substantial immunity for their official actions – even when undertaken for personal ends and criminal purposes.

“On purely partisan lines, the Supreme Court today for the first time in history places presidents substantially above the law. It ruled that former President Trump cannot be prosecuted for deploying Justice Department officials to pursue his own criminal ends. And with respect to other presidential actions, it announces ‘presumptive immunity,’ and offers only a vague and unworkable standard that is likely to mire the case against former President Trump in years of litigation without holding him accountable for his criminal conduct in resisting the peaceful transfer of power,” said ACLU National Legal Director David Cole. “The opinion also sits like a loaded weapon for Trump to abuse in the pursuit of criminal ends if he is reelected.”

While the court rejected President Trump’s most expansive and categorical claim of absolute immunity, it granted him substantial immunity for criminal conduct, including all crimes he committed by attempting to enlist Justice Department officials. And it leaves open many questions about when and for what conduct presidents will be immune from criminal prosecutions, in this case and into the future. The decision sets a dangerous precedent by giving presidents legal cover to break the law when even arguably using their formal powers to do it. And by concluding that former President Trump’s alleged directions to the Department of Justice are absolutely immune, and that his conversations with former Vice President Pence are presumptively immune, the court has not only obstructed accountability for Trump, but freed future presidents to act above the law when using their official powers.

The ACLU’s brief argued that while it has long been recognized that presidents cannot be prosecuted criminally in office, even presidents themselves have recognized that they can be prosecuted after leaving office. That is why President Gerald Ford deemed it necessary to pardon President Richard Nixon in 1974 following the Watergate scandal – a pardon that would have been unnecessary were Nixon immune from criminal prosecution.

“Our nation, including the District of Columbia, is governed by the rule of law, not kings,” said Monica Hopkins, executive director of the ACLU of the District of Columbia. “As we stated in our brief, there are few propositions more dangerous in a democracy than the notion that an elected head of state is above the law. Upholding the rule of law protects individual rights and prevents abuse of power by ensuring equal treatment and accountability. The Constitution does not give the President a special license to violate criminal law. Today’s ruling substantially undermines the ability to hold elected officials accountable and threatens longstanding principles undergirding our democracy.”

The ACLU’s brief warned that there are “few propositions more dangerous” in a democracy than the notion that an elected head of state is above the law, and urged the Supreme Court to reject this extraordinary assertion.

“The President’s accountability to the law is an integral part of the separation of powers and the rule of law. If the President is free, as counsel for the former President argued below, to order the assassination of his political opponents and escape all criminal accountability even after he leaves office, both of these fundamental principles of our system would have a fatal Achilles’ heel,” the brief reads.

The ACLU’s brief in Trump v. United States is part of the ACLU’s Joan and Irwin Jacobs Supreme Court Docket.

Donald J. Trump CONVICTED on all 34 Felony Counts

It seems to be an eternity since Donald J. Trump attended his trial on the Hush Money Case in where he falsified business records through his personal attorney, Michael Cohen.

Within the last hour, President Donald J. Trump has now been convicted of ALL 34 felony counts in the borough of Manhattan in New York. President Trump has been known in the past as ‘Teflon Don’. Now he has been transformed from ‘Teflon Don’, to ‘Felon Don’.  The rule of law has survived.

Eighty hours of trial time.

Twenty-Three Witnesses.

The final nail in the coffin for Donald Trump will come on November 5, 2024, when the American people will vote on their President for the next 4 years.

The sentencing of Donald J. Trump will be on July 11, 2024. Will it be probation, jail time, home confinement or something else? One thing is for sure, Donald J. Trump will receive a sentence for his 34 felony charges he has been found guilty of committing. He stands to lose significant support because he is now a convicted felon.

At the same time, he has been charged with low-level felonies, and the chances that Judge Merchan will jail President Trump seem to be very slim. The judge had several chances in the past during the trial when Trump violated a gag order at least a dozen times.  The judge had every right to jail Trump then, and Judge Merchan now has Trumps’ immediate future in his hands.

Regardless of what happens now, Donald J. Trump can add the following words to his resume – “CONVICTED FELON”.

What does Trump plan to do from now until his sentencing? Obviously, he will continue to run for the office of the 47th President of the United States because he can. The Supreme Court to this point has decided to qualify Trump to run for the President, and he will be on the ballot as a convicted felon.  How much will this felony conviction affect the election? The Republicans now have a convicted felon as their candidate. Will they pick him formally to be their candidate at the Republican conviction?

The sentencing will be just 4 days before the Republican Convention. But what would normally happen is that Donald J. Trump would be handcuffed after the sentencing. It has always been the case.

Twelve people, the jury that convicted Donald Trump will eventually become known and will make the history books. The story of Donald Trump may be just about over, but don’t ever count on it.

The final silencing of Donald J. Trump will come in November, when the people of the United States elect their President.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trump Criminal Trial – DAY 1

TRUMP TRIAL DAY # 1

1) Trump made a montion to recuse, but the Judge denied the motion.

2) Evidence of Trump Catch and Kill Allowed, but without video evidence.

3) The Trump Subpoena Backfires

4) Manhattan District Attorney Wants Trump in Contempt

5) Judge expedites contempt hearing to April 23rd.

6) Trump falls asleep

7) Judge orders Trump to submit his exhibits in 24 hours.

8) The jurors arrive.

9) Trump fell asleep again in court.

10) Judge Merchan rejected Trumps request to be excused for trial next week.

Day 1 is finally here. Trump is now going to trial. He is charged with making fraudulent business records to interfere with the 2016 Presidential Election.

Trump must attend every proceeding, except for Wednesdays, when there will be no court. But on the other days throughout the week, he will have to be present all day in the courtroom, and he will have to sit there and listen.

He received a warning from Judge Merchan that if Trump doesn’t show up, he will be thrown in jail. He told him that he would issue a warrant for his arrest if he doesn’t show up. Trump was also told if he misbehaves, there will be serious ramifications, and while he gave him those orders, he called him “Mr. Trump” instead of Mr. President.

The first order came from the judge even before a jury was selected.

Per the courthouse pool of reporters, Donald Trump had requested that he be excused from the court next week so that he could attend Supreme Court arguments on his claim for absolute presidential immunity in the Washington, D.C. criminal case.  Justice Juan Merchan refused the order. Donald Trump is now stuck in the courtroom for as long as the trial takes, which could be up to 2 months.

Trump is said to be unable to handle the stress he is now feeling as he must be in court and has no control over the judge, as instead the judge now has complete control over him.

Trump appears to also be exhausted with no sleep, as he has taken the opportunity to fall asleep while sitting in the courtroom. He fell asleep during the morning session and then kicked back to life when he heard his name and started to fall asleep in the afternoon as the selection of the jury pool was under way. The jury was witness to it all.

Being that it is a criminal case and not a civil case, Donald Trump must be in the courtroom at all times, and cannot leave. But after the first day, he held a press conference outside the courtroom.

Now that the trial has been concluded, Trump was found GUILTY today, May 30th, 2024 of 34 counts of Fraud. He will be sentenced later in the summer. The date of sentencing is not known at this time.

Jury Selection Week in the Criminal Trial of Donald J. Trump

One of the most important trials of modern time is finally here. It is about the hush money payments made to Stormy Daniels, a porn star. She was paid to keep quiet in order to keep a sexual encounter she had with President Trump back in 2006 that came to light just before the 2016 Presidential election.

It begins back then when the National Inquirer tips off Trump and Michael Cowen, Trump’s attorney and fixer. Stormy Daniels had a story she was going to publish about a 2006 sexual encounter that she had with Donald Trump.  Michael Cowen pays her $130,000 to stay quiet. This was the beginning of the ‘Catch and Kill’ scheme of Donald Trump, in an attempt to have the National Enquirer ‘Catch and Kill’ any story that could impact the election.  Cowen’s part was to pay her off to keep her quiet. So the National Enquirer would acquire negative stories and Trump would pay the National Enquirer to not publish them. Michael Cohen also paid off Karen McDougal, to not share her story or interaction with Donald Trump. Karen McDougal was paid $150,000 to keep quiet.

But how did Michael Cohen pay off these women? Did Trump give Cohen the money up front? Of course not. As cheap as Donald Trump is, Cohen acquired the money through a personal home equity loan to pay off Stormy Daniels.  He did this for his stand-up boss, Donald J. Trump. In a cover-up in a payback scheme, Donald Trump paid the money back to Michael Cohen in 12 monthly installments, but in Trump’s business records, the transactions were considered ‘legal fees’ in the Trump business organization. They were not legal fees. Trump was paying back Michael Cohen for the hush money payments that he made for his boss. And the main reason for the felony charges now, Trump attempted to cover the National Enquirer stories with another crime using his business as the payments being for ‘legal services to Cohen’, which is a felony. Talk about a ‘cooked goose’. That’s the definition of Donald Trump, when all this gets proven in court.

As the story goes, in 2018, the Wall Street Journal broke the story of the hush money payments. At first, Cohen’s house was searched, and then Cohen takes the fall for Trump. According to Cohen, he took the fall for Trump to protect his wife, who prosecutors said they would also attack but would leave his wife alone if Cohen pleads. Cohen pleads guilty to 8 Federal charges of tax evasion, fraud, and campaign financing violations related to the payments to Daniels and McDougal. McDougal was paid $150,000 to keep quient, but since then has come out and told her story and will testify in court. Michael Cohen also looses his law license and can no longer practice because of his boss, Donald J. Trump.

Trump is a scumbag. He ruined so many people’s lives. Many people hold Trump responsible for many of the lives lost due to Covid-19 on his watch. Now he thinks he’s going to be president again, now running as the Republican nominee. He may be the nominee, but it is my opinion that Trump will not ever get close to the White House ever again, and he is now on the way of becoming successfully prosecuted in this criminal case.  The Republicans are in for a severe thumping in the next election in November. Not only will they not gain the White House, they will lose more seats in the Senate and lose the House of Representatives by a very wide margin. Let’s just see if I’m right.

Finally, Donald J. Trump will be gone. He already is known as the worst president ever in U.S. history. No president has ever been despised more than him. He makes President Richard Nixon look like a saint. He makes George W. Bush to be such a stand-up guy. But like I said, no-one else represents the definition of scum than Donald J. Trump. No president except Donald J. Trump has gone so far out of his way, not considering his constituents, to protect himself. He’s only running for president to save himself from being incarcerated.  He never cared that the Democrats could beat the Republicans if he were their nominee, so he’s running anyway. If he happens to win, Democracy loses and the country is in for some very dark moments. If he loses, Democracy wins and the country can move forward, and forever put behind them such a man, the 45th President of the United States, who failed his country.

Michael Cohen was sentenced to 3 years in Federal prison. In 2019, Cowan testified before the House Oversight Committee and stated that Trump knew about the payments and directed him to pay the two women. Of course, as the liar that Trump is, he denied that at first. In 2021, Michael Cohen was released from prison, as he was then sentenced to the last half of his sentance in home confinement. Ultimately, he was sent back to jail by Trump for another week in solitary confinement because Cohen was writing a book while in prison for the first year or so of his sentence. He refused to stop writing it and vowed to publish it, so Trump jailed him again to keep Cohen silent. Here is Trump again, trying to cover up a story that was not favorable to him. Trump felt that no one would ever believe a convicted felon. Now in the Stormy Daniels case, Cohen will testify, as would a bunch of others. The extended jail time was eventually overturned in about a weeks’ time, and Cohen then served the remainder of his sentence at home, during the height of the COVID-19 spread. He was safer at home than in jail.

But finally, what goes around, comes around. Trump received his 1st indictment out of 4 in this case a year ago. It was about hush money payments in his attempt to cover it up through his business, which turned into a slew of felony charges because he used his business to cover up the payments. Everything is backfiring on Trump. Cohen will testify, and he is one of the main credible witnesses of the case, along with Pecker of the National Enquirer and others who will ‘spill the beans’ on Trump.

Donald J. Trump’s hardships are just beginning. Last Monday on Tax Day, April 15th, Donald Trump was ordered to be in court during the start of a jury selection of a 12 panel jury and 6 alternates for the hush money payments case. The jury alternates will stand by just in case one of the main jurors vacates their spot or is removed from their position as a juror for any reason. This process took 4 days last week to complete.   Opening Arguments by the prosecuting attorneys will take place on Monday, April 22nd, which just a few hours from now.

Trump has yet to pay for his crimes in this case, and will now have daily ‘come to Jesus’ prayers while he sits in the courtroom.  On another sick note, Trump has been farting out loud while sleeping in court in a very disgusting display of his very sick ignorance to be considerate of any people around him, including his attorneys that must sit near by.  He is already making enemies with the jury, the most important people in the courtroom. They will decide his fate, not Judge Juan Merchan.  Everybody seems to respect the jurors except Donald Trump. Getting on the wrong side of the jurors can be the beginning of the end for Donald Trump. If found guilty, by a jury of his peers, citizen Trump should be in jail before the 2024 election. And yes, he is no president. He has absolutely no more power than you or I, and should be treated as such.

It will be another first. The election will still go on, even with Donald J. Trump convicted of a felony. If Trump loses the election, he faces the continued prosecution of this court finding, plus he will then have to face more felony charges that have come his way since the initial charges in this case. If Trump wins, everyone knows what will happen. Trump will pardon himself and prosecute anyone who was against him.

Prior and during the jury selection process, Trump kept filing stays to ask Judge Juan Merchan to stop the trial. He posted at least a dozen requests in a weeks time. He also at one time asked permission to be away from the courtroom because of a Supreme Court immunity ruling that is about to take place that he wants to witness. But Judge Juan Merchan will not let Trump out of the courtroom. Trump is now stuck and must appear every day because the case is not a civil one, but a criminal one. The judge told him if he doesn’t show up for any of the days of the trial, there will be an immediate warrant for his arrest.

While this is all happening, the New York Attorney General Letitia James has filed papers to ask a judge if she can continue with seizing Trumps assets to cover the $464 million dollar judgment. She plans to collect because the bondsman that he had acquired to post the $175 million bond reduction is now found to not be worth the paper it’s written on.

The bonding company does not have $175 million in cash, but maybe less than 10% of the money in cash. This prompted Letitia James to move forward to get ready to seize Trump’s bank accounts, and his properties. Even Mar-a-Lago Club is at risk, even if it’s not in New York State. But the chances may be slim in that case, though, as it has a number of primary property restrictions that would appear to make seizure by a creditor, a government or private entity unrealistic. But what about his Trump Tower in New York City. How about his place of residence there. This can become very interesting. Donald Trump is surely to have many more bad days in front of him. When this is all over, Trump may be broke, his children’s futures dashed.

If ruled in Letitia James’s favor. Trump will come out of court every day to find more and more of his assets seized. He claimed to be the greatest businessman of all time. In actuality, he has been the worst.

Including money from his bank accounts, properties, possibly like Trump Tower, his golf course and anything she can get her hands on to almost anything to get back monies that Trump owes the State of New York after loosing his last court case.

As for Joe Biden, he just barrels along raising money and is out there campaigning every day, while Donald Trump will be stuck in court.

The Republican Party really pulled off a crazy stunt that has now backfired in their laps. Trump cannot campaign. He’s stuck in a courtroom and may find himself in a jail cell fairly soon, as he is already in contempt of court. A hearing on that will be coming up in court as soon as Tuesday that will explain the contempt charges.

 

 

British Writer Pens the Best Description of Trump I’ve Read

The following is an article I read on ‘X’ and also found on the Internet, published by a very notable British writer.

Nate White, a British writer penned the best description of Donald Trump I’ve ever read:

“Why do some British people not like Donald Trump?”

A few things spring to mind. Trump lacks certain qualities which the British traditionally esteem. For instance, he has no class, no charm, no coolness, no credibility, no compassion, no wit, no warmth, no wisdom, no subtlety, no sensitivity, no self-awareness, no humility, no honour and no grace – all qualities, funnily enough, with which his predecessor Mr. Obama was generously blessed. So for us, the stark contrast does rather throw Trump’s limitations into embarrassingly sharp relief.

Plus, we like a laugh. And while Trump may be laughable, he has never once said anything wry, witty or even faintly amusing – not once, ever. I don’t say that rhetorically, I mean it quite literally: not once, not ever. And that fact is particularly disturbing to the British sensibility – for us, to lack humour is almost inhuman. But with Trump, it’s a fact. He doesn’t even seem to understand what a joke is – his idea of a joke is a crass comment, an illiterate insult, a casual act of cruelty.

Trump is a troll. And like all trolls, he is never funny and he never laughs; he only crows or jeers. And scarily, he doesn’t just talk in crude, witless insults – he actually thinks in them. His mind is a simple bot-like algorithm of petty prejudices and knee-jerk nastiness.

There is never any under-layer of irony, complexity, nuance or depth. It’s all surface. Some Americans might see this as refreshingly upfront. Well, we don’t. We see it as having no inner world, no soul. And in Britain we traditionally side with David, not Goliath. All our heroes are plucky underdogs: Robin Hood, Dick Whittington, Oliver Twist. Trump is neither plucky, nor an underdog. He is the exact opposite of that. He’s not even a spoiled rich-boy, or a greedy fat-cat. He’s more a fat white slug. A Jabba the Hutt of privilege.

And worse, he is that most unforgivable of all things to the British: a bully. That is, except when he is among bullies; then he suddenly transforms into a snivelling sidekick instead. There are unspoken rules to this stuff – the Queensberry rules of basic decency – and he breaks them all. He punches downwards – which a gentleman should, would, could never do – and every blow he aims is below the belt. He particularly likes to kick the vulnerable or voiceless – and he kicks them when they are down.

So the fact that a significant minority – perhaps a third – of Americans look at what he does, listen to what he says, and then think ‘Yeah, he seems like my kind of guy’ is a matter of some confusion and no little distress to British people, given that:

• Americans are supposed to be nicer than us, and mostly are.

• You don’t need a particularly keen eye for detail to spot a few flaws in the man.

This last point is what especially confuses and dismays British people, and many other people too; his faults seem pretty bloody hard to miss. After all, it’s impossible to read a single tweet, or hear him speak a sentence or two, without staring deep into the abyss. He turns being artless into an art form; he is a Picasso of pettiness; a Shakespeare of shit. His faults are fractal: even his flaws have flaws, and so on ad infinitum.

God knows there have always been stupid people in the world, and plenty of nasty people too. But rarely has stupidity been so nasty, or nastiness so stupid. He makes Nixon look trustworthy and George W look smart. In fact, if Frankenstein decided to make a monster assembled entirely from human flaws – he would make a Trump.

And a remorseful Doctor Frankenstein would clutch out big clumpfuls of hair and scream in anguish: ‘My God… what… have… I… created?’ If being a twat was a TV show, Trump would be the boxed set.”

Election Interference Cover-up Case and Trump’s Future

Now that Trump must finally by now realize that he will be going to his first criminal trial, what will he do to stay out of jail if convicted?

First, you must know of what he can be convicted of. Will he gets convicted of a lesser crime of a misdemeanor of just falsifying business records under New York law, or will he get convicted of a felony by using the business record fraud in furtherance of another crime.   The case is a little complicated and may take some time to sort out in a courtroom, time that Trump claims that he doesn’t have because he needs to run for President.

For a misdemeanor crime, Trump would stay out of jail, but if he is convicted of a felony by using the business record fraud in furtherance of another crime, he qualifies for jail time.

Up to this point in his life, Trump has lost more cases than he won. He’s burned through millions of dollars to defend himself. But now he finally reached a case that is out of his control. He may have one more thing up his sleeve though that can derail the trial for a certain period of time, because Trump is the master of delay. Presently, he has potentially 4 felony trials at his doorstep, and he managed to delay or stall the other cases except for the Stormy Daniels/Business records cover up case that he now must sit in a courtroom for, right in the middle of campaign season which he will be absent for. Now his sins are coming back to haunt him.

Yet, the Republican Party claims that this is the best man to represent them in the upcoming election. He is their top candidate, now the only candidate that doesn’t sport his successes as the reason why he should be elected, but instead is having his donors give money so he can use their money for his personal interests. He is using his own supporters to give money to him, not knowing in many cases that the money will not be used for his reelection cause, but for his own personal benefit.  Yes, I may have said the same thing twice, but what is it going to take to get the die-hard supporters of Donald Trump have a ‘Come-to-Jesues’ moment to finally realize how much Trump is using them.

The lesser included offense, a misdemeanor, is buried in the felony prosecution. But to examine this further, Trump has been indicted of 34 counts of business record fraud that has been ratcheted up to a felony because in New York, if you combine business record fraud, a misdemeanor, with the reasoning a person falsified the record to cover up or conceal to promote another crime, it now is no longer a misdemeanor. It could be election fraud or to cover up the hush money payment to Stormy Daniels just prior to the election to mislead voters to keep them from knowing that he did something sexual which would have turned into a scandal that could have derailed his possible election win.

Trump has attempted to convince Judge Juan Manuel Merchan who is presiding in his case, to postpone his case until after the election or kill the case altogether, and has tried his tactic at least a dozen times in one week. Trump is desperate to keep himself out of court, but with jury selection to start on April 15, there now is virtually nothing he can do to delay the trial any longer. Or, is there something else he can do.

As the self professed smart person that he claims he is, he can now fire his attorneys. That would delay the case until he found new attorneys, and they would need time to get up to speed in the case.  After all, he has money to burn, or does he? He couldn’t even find a reputable bondsman to come up with a reduced amount of $175 million to keep the New York Attorney General Leticia James from seising his money from banks or the properties he has in New York. Firing attorneys may buy him another month. So then, what is his next move. He’s already tried to convince Judge Merchan that he couldn’t be tried fairly in New York, because too many people now have already created an opinion of him in the case.

Jury selection is tedious, but the attorneys of his defense and of the prosecution will have to agree on the jurors selected. That will take time, but everyone that knows how the jury selection process works in New York has confidence that a non-biased jury can be found.

So here we go. Now going into an election season, Joe Biden is pursuing his re-election bid, unabated by Donald Trump that must fight for his freedom in a New York court, who is going up against Judge Merchan after he tried to sue the judge, then go after his daughter Loren Merchan who is a senior executive at “a Super Liberal Democrat firm” says Trump, that has worked with top Democrats, including President Joe Biden.  So What!?! Why attack the Judge’s daughter, the same judge that may put you in the slammer? That’s really smart Donald!

Actually, I know why. It’s because Trump thinks that everything he does makes his followers happy. He’s Mr. TUFF guy. Really. !?.@/$? Let’s see how resilient he can be when he has to go to a courtroom every day. Let’s see how strong he is, if he is actually convicted of a felony. Will he still run for office if convicted. Of course, he will. Even if he must do it from a jail cell. He has no shame.

This year, I am predicting the largest, one-sided presidential victory of all time. Donald Trump will lose the election, this time not by just 80,000 votes he lost by in the last election, but by a super majority of states that finally will realize he is not the future of the Republican Party. Trump will eliminate himself so that the Republican Party can finally be rid of Trump. But now, they have their own ghosts to scare off, because the party has evolved in the MAGA party, which is the Trump brand. Where do the Republicans go from here? Can they reinvent themselves, or will they cease to exist? That’s the unknown factor at this time. But for Donald Trump, it will be a very bad year for him.

 

D-Day is April 15 for Donald Trump

The time has come. Ex-President Donald J Trump is about to embark on a journey in his life that he never has done before. Finally, Trump’s corruption has caught up with him. He will be a defendant in his first of four criminal trials. The beginning of the end is on the horizon for Donald J. Trump.

For the last several years, people heard about Trump’s affair with Stormy Daniels, a porn star, before the 2016 election while he was married to Melania Trump. At a time before the 2016 Presidential election, Trump re-paid his former lawyer Michael Cohen a $130,000 hush money payment to conceal from the American people that Michael Cohen paid to the porn star for Trump.  Not only did Trump pay back Michael Cohen, both Trump and Cohen covered up the payment. It eventually costed Michael Cohen his freedom as he went to jail. The conviction also cost Michael Cohen his bar license, as he now can never serve as an attorney for the rest of his life.

But since then, Michal Cohen has come clean. He now has ‘spilled the beans’ on Trump. Michael Cohen has written two books to highlight his experience as Trump’s attorney and even before that. The first book was named ‘Disloyal’ which was a true story of the former personal attorney to President Trump. Then he wrote a second book called ‘Revenge’ which explained how Donald Trump Weaponized the US Department of Justice against his critics.

Michael Cohen paid the price for Trump, but up until now, Trump has never been accountable for his own dirty deeds. But he is about to go on a whirlwind criminal trial, the first for any U.S. President in American History. All this is happening during the buildup of the 2024 general Presidential election. But now that the trial is beginning, Trump will not be able to campaign during the court proceedings, because he must be present every day at every minute during the trial itself, and he stands to become a convicted felon.

During Trump’s presidency, no prosecuting attorney would even attempt to accuse Trump of any wrongdoing, although evidence was continuing to grow, and it would be a matter of time before he would be indicted. Trump knew he could stay safe if he was elected to a second term, but unfortunately he lost to Joe Biden. Trump lost by a mere 80,000 votes.  In a gross dereliction of duty after he lost the election, he caused the death and destruction that January when he tried to overturn a valid Presidential election and stop the transfer of power.

On April 15, jury selection will start, and most like will run at least a week, with the criminal trial to start immediately after the jurors are sworn to secrecy.

Updates to the trial of Trump will appear here on Trumpdecisionpoints.com.
