POTUS 45.65: I'm Just Here For The Lincoln Project Ads

[Handyman]

He was on the call...

 

[ScoobyDoo]

In other news, Meadows may have opened himself up to perjury charges today. He was testifying in a hearing where he's requesting his Georgia charges be removed to the Feds, and for reasons I don't understand, took the stand himself. And then he said - repeatedly and in a number of ways - that he had no idea that the Trump Campaign (for which the Hatch Act forbids him from working with) was contesting the Georgia election results.


I mean, perhaps he was smart enough never to write it down or otherwise indicate to anyone that he was aware of it, but...

So, he's also an idiot.

I think he's trying to weasel out of his Hatch Act violation admission by trying to thread the needle that he couldn't have been acting 'politically' because he didn't know that the 'campaign' was working to change the election result. He was on the call, yes, but that was with the president and his other advisors, "acting in his official government capacity". It couldn't have been political, cause that's the 'campaign'. and he never knew they were also working to overturn the election.

But that ain't gonna fly, because just last week, he said he wasn't guilty, because he was just doing 'politics'. And then he said he was immune from prosecution because he was acting as part of his official government duties. But as an official of government, he's legally barred from doing 'politics'.

So, if he wants to be immune from the charges, or get tried in federal court, he has to have been performing official duties. But he's already said everything he was doing was political. So he's screwed himself, and he's trying to wiggle his way out of it.

"The call is coming from inside the house!!"

Y'know, it's cute how you folks cheer each other up in hopes that, this time, things are sure to be different (LOL)!!!

 

[LynahFan]

Yeah, I know what you mean, Chuck. Wth all those numerous examples of other ex-presidents being indicted with dozens of crimes and getting off scot-free, it makes sense. There's just nothing new and different about Trump's situation at all.

 

[WeAreNDHockey]

I have Chuckie on ignore but based on the comments from the other that don't, all I can say is that if he actually believes 5% of what he posts I find it amazing his brain functions well enough to remind his lungs to breathe and his heart to beat, and that I truly feel sorry if there are people in his life who are still tethered to reality and have to put up with him.

I suspect his only hope is challenging the constitutionality of the Hatch Act under the first amendment. Has anyone tried that before?

Only thing "different" is your side weaponized the DOJ and is now officially running a banana republic. Congrats.

You do realize all this is doing is disclosing how deranged your side is, and alienating lots of independents, right?

Oh - you don't then?!? Well, by all means, keep doubling down, as DJT is polling at least even with Magoo ...

Daily Presidential Tracking Poll - Rasmussen Reports?

He tries so hard.

I do now, too. It was the same old accusations without evidence.

Again, how can the “law and order” party not know how the system works? If you have actual evidence for the facts, go to a court and prosecute. It’s pretty simple, especially when it’s the third, and separate, branch of the government- and it’s stacked with conservative judges.

Court of law, not court of public opinion.

It’s even outlined in the Constitution. Although that does require reading ability.

Hunter has even gone to court to face the laws, and has pleaded to get sentenced. It’s really not that hard.

Don’t forget that these people are now home schooling their kids.

 

[French Rage]

He tries so hard.

I dunno, posting polls that show Biden up and Trump down since last August when the raids and indictments started is pretty piss-poor trying.

Nothing limits a child's potential like homeschooling. I'm also not entirely convinced that homeschooling isn't actually a worse predictor for success than limited or even no schooling.

I was homeschooled from 7th to 10th grade.

Fell way behind in math because Mom had no clue and the curriculum was conservative Christian.

By the time I was enrolled in public school for Junior and Senior, I was lost. I graduated in 2000 with a 3.0 and ran.

Homeschooling is the scene in Catch-22 with the patient with two jars. One is attached to his groin and the other is draining into an IV. When the groin jar is full, the nurse switches them.

I strongly dislike Trump but did see a nice picture on twitter of him handing out food and water to folks in Florida. Our country needs more of that and good on him for doing it.

And it was a fake picture...
