Trump unfit to be Commander in Chief

[Billiejeens]

Convicted felon and ex president Donald Trump is even more unfit for office now in 2024 than he was in 2016 or 2020.
He is now a convicted felon and will be (most likely) for the rest of his life.
Even if he does appeal these latest convictions he only has a slim chance of success and the process is likely to take years to resolve.
In the meantime he is still a convicted felon.
A common criminal.
Untrustworthy.
Smarmy.
Dishonest.
Desperate.
In more sane times the GOP would have already dropped a person like convicted felon Trump from the ballot. There USED to be certain standards, or lines that a politician could not cross and still be considered POTUS and CIC material. The most basic of these would be a felony conviction.
And now we have that.
It is time to disqualify convicted felon Trump from running for office.
"On what basis?" You ask.
How about "you are a national embarassment and a joke and we have higher standards for our party's nominee than an unqualified, incompetent clown who has already been convicted of 34 felonies IN ADDITION to still having more unresolved felony cases pending INCLUDING charges related to espionage and staging a coup d' etat against the very country you want to swear allegiance to.....AGAIN!"
How about just telling Trump he didn't honor his oath of office the first time around....so now he doesn't get a second chance?
Imagine THAT!
A GOP with an actual SPINE!

Here is a thoughtful opinion piece from U.S.A. Today explaining the issues with such a morally compromised, ethically challenged POTUS trying to lead our armed forces. Worth the read.

Trump's lack of ethical standards and integrity goes against everything the U.S. military stands for. He has proved that under pressure, he will crack. If he were to become commander in chief again, he might well compromise our country by giving in to coercion or revealing secrets that could get Americans killed.

A felon serving as both leader of the free world and commander in chief would disrupt the military's culture and institutional structure as we know it.

National security keeps our military members alive. Heck, it keeps us all alive. Allowing someone who flagrantly disregards the law and authority of any manner to lead our armed services would not keep our nation secure.

Cybersecurity and international espionage are a dangerous game, and for someone like Trump to have the cheat codes would be like showing your child how to use one tap to make in-app purchases, then telling them not to buy any games. America’s adversaries are watching and taking notes. They would welcome the former president's tarnished moral compass because it could be used to weaken America's national security.

Former military leaders, such as retired Marine Corps Gen. John Kelly, who served during the Trump administration have called him dangerous and unfit. Trump has injured relationships between the United States and its allies, and his actions on the international stage were seen as weak and unstable, directly harming diplomatic relations.

And with Trump back in the White House, our nation's global reputation and credibility would be hurt at a time when threats from China, Iran and Russia appear to be growing.

As both a felon and the commander in chief, Trump's lack of character would undercut morale in our armed services, leading to greater problems with retention. In Bob Woodard's book "Rage," Trump told a former adviser, “My f---ing generals are a bunch of p---ies.” It wasn’t the first or the last time he berated our military’s most revered leaders.

Why do you hate Democracy?

 

[Billiejeens]

Oh he's a felon for sure!
He became a felon from the first "guilty" verdict.
The appeals process does not negate the jury verdict or put it on hold in any way.
He's a registered felon unless and until he receives a win on appeal...which he probably won't. At any rate that isn't even going to be on the table until most likely early 2026.
Better get used to Trump being a felon.
It's here to stay.

As is his Presidency.

 

[two_iron]

Not the best day for a TDS thread considering their thought leader shit its pants in public again.

But I get it, the OP needs that dollar for the effort, and I don't begrudge that.

This thread is about convicted felon Trump.
Interesting that you can't talk about him.
You have to talk about Biden.

Its called deflection/distraction/misdirection.

 

[Godboy]

The appeals process does not negate the jury verdict

Ummmmm, what? Thats literally what they do. Are you ******* retarded or something? Bro, think before you type.

Biden is our failing president, and is in position to do far more harm than a potential future president.

You must have missed the word "process" in my words when I said "the appeals process does not negate the jury verdict."
Try to keep up here ok.
The issue here is that MAGAt cultists are trying to say that Trump isn't a felon yet because he is appealing his conviction.
I am pointing out that be that as it may he is still a felon for now, especially since any appeal has such a slim chance of succeeding and will likely take years to play out.
Again, try to keep up with the adults here.

 

[Godboy]

You must have missed the word "process" in my words when I said "the appeals process does not negate the jury verdict."

Ummm, yes it does when the case was fraudulent from the start. The jurys verdict will be negated, which means that Trump isnt a felon. He is merely the victim of an illegal court case against him.

 

[BluesLegend]

Joe Biden is 10x more unfit, well that pretty much destroyed the OP.

 

[JohnDB]

Ummm, yes it does when the case was fraudulent from the start. The jurys verdict will be negated, which means that Trump isnt a felon. He is merely the victim of an illegal court case against him.

When the conviction process was improper creating a fraudulent conviction....

That's what I believe that you are trying to say.
We don't accuse the jury of impropriety or negate their opinion based upon the facts presented to them. Especially when Trump's lawyers were not allowed to bring out substantial evidence plus the specially appointed judge has a CLEAR conflict of interest plus the inflammatory evidence allowed plus the instructions given plus the multiple choice verdict allowed.
THESE are ALL grounds for vacating the "conviction".

 

[Catsnmeters]

Convicted felon?!! This hasnt even gone to the appeals court yet, or the Supreme Court. Trump isnt a felon. This case never survives.

Yes. Trump is a convicted felon.

On what grounds do you think it would win appeal?

 

[BluesLegend]

People just STOP responding to Dems 'convicted felon' BS. Dems want the election to be about that, obviously they can't win on any of the issues they SUCK!

All that typing and not a single unique or independent thought expressed. Everything you said is what every irrational contrarian anti trump person says on a constant daily basis over and over and over again.

Yes, Joe Bribem is definitely a felon and now that ex president can be indicted, you can bet your bottom dollar there are a bunch of state AG's lining up to bring the charges.

 

[HikerGuy83]

Richard Nixon was 100 times the man Trump is.

But at the end of the day, Republican Leaders realized that his position was untenable.

No, the SCOTUS locked him up 9-0 on his tapes. He knew he was screwed and rightly so.

And why isn't this in the "Conspiracy Theories for leftist assholes" Forum ?

Seriously......what revered leaders. The military couldn't beat South Africa the way it is now with the woke pussies at the helm.

And since when does their opinion matter. All they do is opine. They have very little to go on as Trump was pretty good up until Covid.

Our global reputation ? As what. The biggest tit on the globe ? Yeah, China is growing. We can't graduate literate kids from high schools (and let's not even talk how that distributes across racial lines), and we cancel people because we feel "uncomfortable" or "we don't feel safe" or "we are having anxiety" (lets send those pussies from the Columbia Law Review to war behind our revered leaders). Hell, a 12-year old soccer team could take out an entire company as they try to figure out what pronouns to use.
