Well, neo-con Bill Kristol isn't in the LP, and I'm glad. I do think Mace's fearmongering discrimination against Ms. McBride isn't justified by empirical evidence & it is appalling that the public sector itself violates equal protection under the law.https://t.co/1MjOZnoG8R pic.twitter.com/l9iHcb2jQn

Well, there are certain reasons to be wary of Chris Christie, especially the bridge kerfuffle. but the fact is Christie is a past US attorney and infinitely better qualified to serve as AG than Gaetz or Bondi. Trump has a history of bad hires, but he never takes responsibility.

We are still waiting on the appeals court to reverse Judge Cannon's unlawful dismissal of the classified documents case. I would expect Smith to move that case is also dismissed without prejudice.

Why did Jack Smith motion to dismiss the J6 case against criminal Trump in the J6 case? I'm not a lawyer, but NBC indicated that it's Justice Dept policy not to prosecute a sitting POTUS. The case is dismissed without prejudice meaning it can be refiled in Jan. 2029.

Actually the falsified business records case is criminal, not civil. The Carroll case is civil. I don't think the presidential immunity ruling applies to Trump's falsification of business records, not a Presidential duty. I do think the charges should be reduced to misdemeanors.

The cases aren't fake. Trump is a criminal. The civil cases in New York state have not been dismissed.

The OP troll is an idiot. The Trumpkin Judge Cannon unlawfully dismissed Trump's classified docs case which will be reversed. The J6 case is being dismissed without prejudice.
Okay, dumbass. You do realize "without prejudice" means files can be refiled when Criminal Trump leaves office, right? Smith just won't prosecute while Trump is in office.
— raguillemette (@raguillemette) November 26, 2024
No , dismissing a case doesn't imply criminal Trump has been exonerated. The case was dismissed so Trump is not prosecuted during his term. It can be refiled in Jan. 2029.

Trump is ignorantly continuing to scapegoat immigrants for problems. In fact, returning American tourists contribute to fentanyl imports. Immigrants commit proportionately fewer crimes than born citizenshttps://t.co/vOg8yQ3Tk9

You are an economic illiterate. Tariffs are essentially American taxes on foreign goods and materials. Trump is corrupt, robbing Peter to pay Paul. Much imports go into American products, keeping prices low and globally competitive. Canada and Mexico will reciprocate tariffs.

I didn't vote for Trump or Harris. I don't think the reason Harris lost was because of no Rogan interview. Trump had decades of media experience.

The AP has called 2 more Congressional races. CA-45 was a late vote flip to D, and Miller-Meeks (R) won her second squeaker in a row for IA-1. That makes the House total 220 R-214 D. I think that leaves CA-13 uncalled but it's another race where a Dem has taken a late lead.

Trump's "majority" had been trending down from 50.2% with late-counted ballots. A more current is from Cook's Political Report where Trump's 77,108,788 is 49.83% of 154,734,028 votes. Harris' 74,709,131 had 48.28%. The rest were third-party.https://t.co/HlOeeOlMT7

It's more complex. During the USSR days, Russians migrated to Ukraine and Crimea was reassigned to Ukraine. After dissolution of the USSR, the US committed to non-expansion of NATO. Then in 2014 Obama supported the overthrow of the pro-Russian government. (1/3)

Half of the payroll tax (employer half) is untaxed. So, NO, Trump is WRONG. The limited tax revenue from higher-income senior citizens contributes to the current cash flow in social security funding already in the red needing funds from dwindling reserves due to deplete by 2034.

I don't think Trumpkins know what a real landslide is like: LBJ in 1964, Nixon in 1972, Reagan in 1980, 1984. Trump got less than 50% of the vote & beat Harris by 1.6 pts. Harris had the lowest VP job approval only in the race since July. He had no coattails, 4 Senate seat losses

At least Congressmen Mike Waltz and Elise Stefanik are joining the Trump Administration, Matt Gaetz earlier resigned his House seat and the GOP only has a 220-seat caucus, behind in the last uncalled race.
— raguillemette (@raguillemette) November 30, 2024
Trump has a very narrow Congressional majority and really can't claim a mandate. He couldn't get Gaetz through the Senate. If he overplays his hand, the paper-thin House majority will almost certainly flip in 2026 like it did in 2018, costing him 2 impeachments
