NBC News spoke to more than a half-dozen Iowa voters turned off by Trump — but some were anxious about talking on the record out of fear of being shunned by friends or family.“

If you would say something negative about Trump, we had one person that would just go bang for your throat,” said Barbra Spencer, 83, a former Trump voter describing her experience living in senior apartments in Spillville, Iowa.“

I don’t talk about Donald Trump a lot because I’m afraid of the backlash,” said Jody Sears, 66, a registered Republican from Grimes, Iowa.

More evidence of what Trump has in store for us if he’s reelected.

In November, on Truth Social, Trump congratulated Javier Milei on his election to Argentina’s presidency.

"The whole world was watching!” Trump wrote. “I am very proud of you. You will turn your Country around and truly Make Argentina Great Again!"

​

Milei got straight to work. He devalued the peso and took other measures, which, while they may make investors happy, and are intended to help the most vulnerable, sent prices spiraling upwards. Unions were among those who were concerned, fearing layoffs, inflation, and salary cuts.

Of course, these major policy changes meant protests were inevitable. They triggered an entire series of threats to freedom from Milei. He announced what commentator David Adler called “a total crackdown on Argentine civil society.” That includes calling on Argentina’s armed forcesto break strikes and arrest protestors. The security minister said federal forces would intervene in any protests or street blockades conducted without a permit and the use of force would escalate until streets were cleared.

Like Milei, who he has publicly admired, Trump has a built-in trigger for unleashing unprecedented control on protests in the U.S. They are sure to emerge, as they did during his first term in office if he is reelected. Trump could impose measures akin to those being explored in Argentina, using the Insurrection Act to circumvent legal prohibitions against using the military in the domestic United States.

We discussed this in early November in Frogs Boiled: What Trump is Planning for a Second Term, after the Washington Post reported on some of the specifics of Trump’s plans. They wrote that among the ideas Trump and his allies had floated, were the following:

• Have DOJ investigate former Trump administration officials and allies who have become critics of the former president
• Prosecute DOJ and FBI officials
• Appoint a special prosecutor to “go after” President Biden and his family, based on unsupported allegations of corruption that Trump’s allies in the House are already moving forward with
• End the separation between the White House and DOJ that prevents presidents from using prosecutions as a tool for political advantage or personal revenge
• Draft an executive order to permit the military to be deployed in the United States pursuant to the Insurrection Act. That would permit soldiers to be used against the protests that would be certain to break out if Trump were reelected

That reporting comes into sharper focus as we see Trump cheering on a man who has similar plans in another country. The most important takeaway, for our purposes, from Milei’s efforts to preemptively curb protests is Trump’s approval of them. Does Trump intend to impose the same sort of “order” on civil society here? What follows next? Mass arrests? Suspension of the First Amendment? Full on Gilead?

Yes, it sounds alarmist, but unfortunately, it’s all too real. Trump has a habit of saying the quiet part out loud. He’s doing that here. Are we paying attention? We had better be.

What Trump wants to do to America

The civil war is getting closer and closer.....

The decision by Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows (D) is sure to be appealed. The Colorado Supreme Court last week found Trump could not appear on the ballot in that state under a part of the U.S. Constitution that prevents insurrectionists from holding office. The Colorado Republican Party has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review the case, which could resolve for all states whether Trump can run again.

Both states have temporarily put their decisions on hold so Trump can pursue appeals.

In California, the nation’s most populous state, the secretary of state certified Trump’s name on Thursday, despite a request from the state’s lieutenant governor to consider excluding him on constitutional grounds. Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) had pushed back on the idea, saying Trump should be defeated at the ballot box.

We can officially say that recruitment into capitalist elites and ensuring "stability" of the elites is based on luring and blackmailing pedophiles of status.

It is not yet official to say that, apart from pedophilia, there are more nefarious things behind the circular vouching, but I think 2024 will be the year of discovery.

BREAKING: New documents show Donald received up to $7.8 million dollars from foreign governments when he was in the White House in direct VIOLATION of the Constitution. And we can do something about it.Read on
​

Knowing Donald as I do, I knew there was more to it when he said he’d reject the presidential salary paid by Americans. Now we know why he did: He was already bought and paid for by over 20 foreign governments.

Republicans want to talk about corruption? Great… Let’s break down the sordid details just released today of every foreign payment Donald received (that we now know of) while he was still in office.

I’ll save the biggest for last.

Kuwait
​

Kuwait paid Donald’s businesses totaling more than $300,000. They moved their annual Washington party to Donald’s hotel in December 2016. In 2017, he released a statement about how proud he was to expedite a $5B sale of American F/A-18 Super Hornet fighting jets to them.

But it gets more egregious.

Qatar
​

In 2017, Donald denounced corrupt and authoritarian government of Qatar as a “funder of terrorism”.

But in April of 2018, the Qatari Permanent Mission to the United Nations bought a fourth apartment at Trump World Tower for $6.5 million, and then in the SAME MONTH, Donald welcomed its monarch to the Oval Office and labeled Qatar as a partner in the “stopping the funding of terrorism.”

The report estimates that Qatar paid $465,744 in charges for all its properties in Trump World Tower.

The checks and favors kept rolling in:

Saudi Arabia
​

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia paid Donald’s business entities at least $615,422 while Donald was in office, including, according to a report by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee, “more than $212,000 in emoluments through the country’s ownership of the 45th floor of the Trump World Tower and a week-long stay in March 2018 at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C.”

NOT-SO FUN FACTS: Donald chose Saudi Arabia for his first overseas trip, an unusual move that raised many eyebrows. And who can forget that Donald appeared to have defended Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman after allegations emerged about the brutal murder of American resident journalist Jamal Khashoggi?

Who was the biggest?
​

Donald took the largest total payments from China, with businesses spending more than $5.5 million at Trump Tower in New York, and at two of Donald’s hotels in Washington and Las Vegas.

But it’s not just Chinese businesses:

Millions of dollars came directly from China’s Embassy in the United States, and a state-owned Chinese bank that the DOJ accused of helping North Korea evade sanctions.

In a 2017 trip to China, Donald showered Chinese President Xi Jinping with praise, telling the dictator, “my feeling toward you is an incredibly warm one.”

BIG: Donald Took Foreign Cash In WH

Guess who gave him the most
