Trump thread part 2 (Or anything else we want to talk about that's ridiculous in politics today)

[Morcheeba*]

When we see politicians labeling judges as renegade and passing legislation that would enable them to eject judges then the basis of the constitution having three separate branches of government is broken. The judicial system proved this concept worked as Chump attempted to corrupt our election system and courts one after another, shot him down. States banning abortion and threatening their citizens as well as neighboring states for cooperating is one more front where the constitution is threatened.

It seems just a matter of time before the republican party shreds the constitution creating the split that becomes civil war. It may not be violent, but it is well under way.

politicians Appoint Federal & Supreme Court Justices and when a person is given a life-time appointment by a political party and that person is not experienced enough or qualified to be in that position then IMO they are beholden to that Party.

Judicial Appointees should be appointed by a vote and those entitled to vote to fill a vacancy would be current and former Judges. These are the only qualified people to make the decision on who should fill a vacancy because they know whats needed.

this change is only a pipe dream b/c politicians dont like giving up power but it would be nice to halt All Judicial Appointments and implement a system to allow Judges to vote to fill vacancies. Once all current vacancies were filled then term out those Judges who were appointed by politicians and let the new system fill those vacancies.


peace

Judges appointed by either party should be beholden to the constitution above all. Every ruling should be made knowing that it will fully comply constitutionally at the highest level without partiality. Supreme Court judges should have a proven record under the highest level of scruitany and serve with term limits. Any tolerance of partiality in the court system defeats the purpose.

judges USED to be confirmed pretty much by a largely bipartisan vote. that seems so long ago now...

Yes our system is broken and yes it's mostly because of the Republican party trying to bring down the system so that they can gain and keep power and continue to force their will on the people. There is a very simple way they can fix all that, all the need to do is start listening to the people the represent and make sincere efforts to fix the things people tell them need fixing. That's not what they do, instead they listen to the donors that line their pockets with money and do everything the can to help those people and to hell with everyone else. The common people, the voters, they ignore their complaints and give them some scapegoat to distract them and blame their problems on so that they can continue to serve there true masters.

So the only real way for things to get fixed is for the voters to become more educated, more involved, stop buying into all the lies, the scapegoating and excuses. Demand they tell you what they're going to do to make things better before you elect them and then if they don't make an honest and sincere effort to do those things but instead continue to enrich people that don't need enriching then vote them out the next election cycle.

Until the entire public starts getting involved, start acting like the right to vote is one of the most important rights they have and turn out consistently election after election then the system will remain broken because to not turn out to votes leaves cracks in the system by which corrupt politicians can exploit the system.

From what I saw, there were more people supporting his arrest and reporters than there were his supporters.

That's how it looked to me as well but according to most every report I heard that day they had the two groups as either even or slight more for Trump then against. To me all that doesn't really matter though because if you take everyone combined the numbers were far below how many turned out on Jan. 6th and far below how many turn out for a typical Trump rally. Which tells me that whether Trump or his supporters will admit it or not, Trumps core base is shrinking and there were some recent favorability polls that seem to support this with the number of people who view Trump favorably at 25% which is a historic low for him. However I do not put much stock in polls because I know they can be manipulated. When they can be corrobrated though by real events, well that's something hard to ignore.

[Zeez]

So Chump wants the court to have sympathy and mercy on him because his criminal behaviors exceed his ability to defend himself.

Yeah right, I hope the judge sees fit to tell him to go fuck himself.

Back in the real world the Cohen suit is called witness tampering.

 

[armedoldhippy]

The Chump still hasn't figured out that nobody is afraid of him any longer. not really sure why they EVER thought he was "dangerous." oh, sure...he's gotten LOTS of his own lawyers hammered. not positive why any but the most relentless ambulance chasers would try to work with him. do none of those morons ever read a newspaper?

 

[GOT_BUD?]

I'm calling it right now - Trump is going to be charged with treason and dissemination of state's secrets.

Showing maps he shouldn't have had to people who shouldn't have seen them. Oh my.

Like the blind man once said....

 

[armedoldhippy]

Trump is going to be charged with treason

isn't treason punishable by death? preferably hanging? could this be done pay per view, and maybe sell pulls on a BIG board for the right to smack the horse on the ass? you could drum up some Chump-worthy cash like that..."What a spectacle, folks! the BIGGEST, the best attended, and the most anticipated execution ever aired...look at that crowd!"

See? This is a perfect example of what i mean when I say Trump is a moron, I mean here he is pulling one of his usual tricks of trying to intimidate a witness in a legal matter he's facing by threatening him with a massive lawsuit. Only problem for Trump is this is the guy who for years helped him to perfect and use this tactic on people and yet Trump thinks it's going to work? Or worse yet Does Trump really think that Cohen has 500 Million to give him if by some miracle Trump won this lawsuit?

 

[armedoldhippy]

Does Trump really think that Cohen has 500 Million

these numbers (like his evaluations of property) are figments of his overactive imagination, just like all of the other ignorant shit he spews...he might as well have asked for a quadrillion with the odds he has of winning and collecting...

Yeah I saw Beau's video on this story line too. For those that might not know, the Special Investigator is pursuing 2 new lines of questioning related to the documents case. He's calling in Trump staff and asking them if Trump ever discussed anything to do with General Milley and if so, in connection with that discussion did he show them a particular map that is highly classified. If the answers to those questions are yes then Trump will have succeeded in moving the case from obstruction to full on Espionage/Treason which happens to be one of the variations of the charges he's facing with those classified documents that not only could land him behind bars (even if only at a Club Fed) but can also bar him from holding public office ever again. Way to go Stable Genius.

Wouldn't that be a funny bit of irony?

Firing Squad would be appropriate. Guillotine would be even better hearing the thud in the bucket.

even worse yet...

If Mr Trump ends up being asked for giving a deposition in the case, Mr Cohen argues, “he cannot take the fifth”.

“This will be a civil suit that’s brought by him, with a countersuit. So, could you imagine, in a case that you’re the plaintiff on, despite the fact that you’ll be technically a defendant in the countersuit, that you’re now not going to answer questions?”

Michael Cohen says he may file countersuit to Trump’s $500m case: ‘I can’t believe how stupid he was’​

Trump will use the same old excuse..

"I HAVE THE RIGHT TO DECLASSIFY ANYTHING BY MY JEDI POWERS"
The maps I showed had already been declassified in my mind.
