These people aren't sociopaths like hardline Trumpistas. They aren't out to vanquish anyone. They just believe Trump is incompetent and an embarrassment to the country.So who is their candidate, and what is their plan to vanquish the Democrats?They want the return of a small government party. Trump has turned the repubs socialist with all his deficits and bailouts.Whither the GOP? Who do the Never Trumper Lincoln Project support, and how do they achieve victory?
Anne Applebaum: revenge of the Never-Trumpers | Financial Times
Ahead of the November election, disenchanted Republicans are taking to social media to make their case against the presidentwww.ft.com
Normal People saw initially that Trump was very impropriate person to be President. they initially held fears that US would have it's institutions would be eroded and US would be unprepared to defend itself in case of attack.
Trump has spent 4 years eroding institutions especially in Justice. The GOP has been corrupted to the point you have to be Trump supporter or considered disloyal and gone... Hyper support for Trump is rewarded especially if that support ignores allegiance to US.
The US was attacked and was woefully undefended. The enemy is a virus and Trump weakened the defence to this attack, first by assigning an unqualified guy to lead(Redfield) the CDC, this led to cutting the pandemic CDC team. The CDC also messed up testing under him too... Redfield is a Trump loyalist.
Normal People now that Trump will get worse when backed into a corner. He is under serious pressure with what is going on New York investigation. Trump is going into a serious financial investigation when his Presidency comes to an end.
Let's be clear. Obama did not direct an investigation for Bush for war crimes (especially starting one), he felt this would divide the country and dominate his first term. It was a smart move. Trump is totally different, mainly it is a state leading the investigating. If a federal investigation started it would be because he didn't stop it rather than direct it.
If Trump looses in November he will be investigated and he will not enjoy the protection he had as President. No kicking a can around the courts for 3-4 years... The DA is a democrat and no amount of Trump grand standing will help him. No bitching and complaining, gag orders will issued quickly...
Oh FFS. Your arguments are all CT nonsense and desire to see the enemy frog marched in handcuffs. It's idiocy. Your New York Prosecutor will spend half the annual budget trying to prosecute Trump, and still come up short. Because Trump will have a hundred high priced defense attorneys who are tearing every piece of evidence to shreds. Best case scenario for the Prosecution is hung jury in all honesty.
It is the same idiocy that the RW screams they want to see with Hillary or Obama locked up. It is the same idiocy that the LW wanted to see Cheney or Bush marched out of the White House in cuffs. It was and is nonsense.
You know, there are a lot of good an common sense reasons to oppose what Trump has done here or there. But the problem is that for you Hate Trump idiots is that you oppose everything. No matter what. For you all, if he walked into a Hospital, and healed people by placing his hands upon them, you idiots would demand he be arrested for practicing Medicine without a License.
The CDC went with a different test than Europe had. They didn't like the European one. Whatever? I bet you a dime to a dollar that they can defend that choice. They made a mistake and went with a flawed one at first. OK, mistakes happen. The trick is to admit it and move on as quickly as possible after you see the mistake.
The CDC is full of people who are doing the best job that they can, but now nobody will listen to them because they technically work for Trump. Well ignore him. Think about the positions the Left has taken since Trump has taken office. Just recently. Brady Rule Violations are so common as to be ignored by the courts. That was the position the LW took with Flynn. The desire to see him in prison is so great that you are willing to rewrite judicial procedures and rules to get him. Fuck the Constitution, and the sixty year old Brady Rule. We have to get Trump and his Allies.. So what if that means that the Prosecution is free to cheat and lie to get people convicted. It doesn't matter. The new Flynn Rule will imprison tens of thousands of wrongfully convicted, and that won't matter either. It is all about getting Trump and his allies.
Want to win in November? Here's a clue how to win an overwhelming majority. Clue? Hell it is a blueprint. Run on issues. Ignore Trump. That will drive him insane. Just run on issues. If you do that, you're going to win in November. If you don't, you make the election a coin toss. Heads he wins, tails he loses. Take your pick which of the candidates is the "he" in that sentence.
Run on the Constitution. Run on defending the Constitution. Run on defending Civil Rights, and individual liberties. Hey, try this. It worked for Obama in 2008. Run on revoking the PATRIOT ACT. That was part of the reason I voted for Obama. That and getting us out of Afghanistan. Neither of which happened by the way.
Run on the issues, and then govern the way you ran. Democrats would be unbeatable for decades if they did that just once.
You have a very funny look at the law but you seemed to be misinformed.
Trump lost the SC to not release his tax returns. Since the DA has got the tax returns he expanded his investigation to financial crimes. It was commonly suspected (actually stronger than that) that Trump had wide variations in between Tax and Bank evaluations....
He had businesses gone bankrupt on Deutche Bank. The question is why did they keep lending money to him, he was over valuing his properties and he had defaulted. This is pretty unheard of behaviour.
As for the Brady Rule... It doesn't apply when the client pleads guilty. Brady Rule is pretrial discovery, plead guilty and there is no trial.
"One traditionally trial-based right that has not been extended to plea bargaining is Brady disclosure.."
Redfield is in charge of the CDC... The buck stops there... Sorry, he wanted the job, the job is tough... I find the testing as a bit unlucky but you make your own luck... But Redfield has been powerless to control the President. His inaction cost lives...
The issue in November is to put adults back in charge...
