One Year Ago Today I Ruined My Life

I hate to say it, but I'm glad we got the 2024 Trump instead of the 2020 one. The 2020 one wouldn't have made the corrections needed to get where we are now.

Absolutely! Many on the right just don't realize what a blessing it was for Trump to lose in 2020 and win in 2024. God works in mysterious ways.

And you don't know of any?

Probably all other candidates other than Lindsey.

The court ruled that the charges he was found guilty of doing were justified.

more courts to come, and two the judges would have ordered a re-trail but just vacated the verdict so a higher appeals court could rule on the case.

The Dems chose the form of their destructor by not letting him just go out quietly. They had to go after him with lawfare, and it backfired on them.

Bingo! I seriously doubt we would have ever heard from Trump again after 2020 but for democrats weaponizing law enforcment against him and taking the term "dirty tricks" to an entirely new level, including trying to take Trump off ballots. CNN did a poll shortly after the election which showed that out of the voters whose number one reason for voting was to save democracy, 58% of those voters voted for Trump. On election night Kamala Harris was begging people in Pennsylvania to stay in long lines and not get out in order to save our democracy, not realizing that a majority of those people were actually voting for Trump.

vacated the penalty.

Not all of it and not even close to vacating the verdict. They actually backed the verdict.

Apparently the voters didn't believe that. The best you could argue is that this encouraged Trump voters to be energized to get out to vote while Kamala Harris couldn't come up with anything but "Orange man bad" and her voters just weren't energized to go out and vote for her. Even with that scenario, democrats screwed up and continue doing so to this day. It's still nothing but orange man bad.

They split on the verdict, but in the interest of not delaying the remaining appeals process, punted on it to the next higher court.

I am glad he is doing a lot of Executive Orders to get things done. Glad all the DEI crap was done away with by Executive Orders.

I'm actually in favor of, after 2028, eliminating most executive orders to maybe about 12 per year, one per month. Both parties are getting carried away with it.

politics knows no bounds where hypocrisy is concerned.

How about on the blue team?

They ruled for finality.

I think many people misunderstand what EO's can or cannot do. When done properly all they do is direct parts of the executive government to perform certain tasks based on laws that have been passed by congress, and are referenced in the EO.

A good example is Trump's EO saying Title IX applies to sex, not to the gender constructs created by the left, and bases that on the words of Title IX itself.

Bottom line, Democrats made Trump who he is.

Well there really have been very few. They had a mental acuity above a 12 year old but still lousy candidates.

There is no finality, there is another court in NY higher than the appellate division of the NY supreme Court.

That is the NY Court of Appeals, which is the highest court in NY State.

Trump is who he has always been. Calling people names like a 12 year old.

That doesn't dispute what I said.

What actually makes a good candidate? I mean, one could argue that since Trump won twice, that makes him a good candidate. If you lose, then you're not a good candidate. If Kamala Harris would have won, would that have made her a good candidate? Can a good candidate lose and a bad candidate win?
