Donald Trump used tear gas and beatings to clear a public park so he could stage a photo op. #UsefulIdiot

amzn.to/3hLT7ze Image
He flouted federal law holding the RNC convention at the White House. He tried to extort a foreign power to win re-election.
What’s he going to do when he knows he never has to face the voters again? And do Americans really want to find out?

The #UsefulIdiot, available for pre-order now.

NEW -- Trump went to Valdosta days after Helene hit and claimed he had brought truckloads of food, water and gasoline.

Turns out the only thing he brought that day was traffic from his motorcade, which pulled dozens of cops away from storm cleanup.
huffpost.com/entry/donald-t…
“Today I’ve come to Valdosta with large semi-trucks, many of them filled with relief aid, and a tanker truck filled up with gasoline," the coup-attempting former president said, wearing his campaign hat in front of a wrecked furniture store.
Trump’s campaign later sent out a press release headlined, “President Trump Delivers Relief, Support To Hurricane-Ravaged South,” which stated: “President Trump delivered relief supplies to aid in the hurricane’s devastating aftermath."

The coup-attempting criminal former president is laser focused on the economy, as his campaign aides want, as he talked about Gov. Tim Walz and tampons in boys bathrooms. Image
And then claims that VP Harris "crackled" while inflation increased.

(Ed note: He's talking about her laugh, so maybe he meant "cackle.")
Now he's claiming that all of his favorite dictators (Putin! Xi! Kim!) are laughing at us.

If this actually is a news conference, in that he takes questions, rather than just ramble on endlessly and leave, here are some the reporters down there should be asking: Image
1) Given that your campaign is attacking Gov. Walz's military record, can you explain your choice to fake bone spurs to avoid the Vietnam War?

1a) Was it appropriate to compare your having unprotected sex with random women to what US soldiers were facing overseas?
2) You keep complaining about being called a "threat to democracy." Does that mean you regret lying endlessly about the 2020 election and inciting a violent assault on the Capitol and then doing nothing about it for three hours?

The coup-attempting former president, who is also a court-adjudicated sexual abuser*, did not get two minutes into his speech before he introduced a new lie: That he had won Minnesota in 2020.

(Fact check: Uh, yeah. No.)

*Rape, in the common parlance, per a federal judge. Image
Trump is claiming that inflation was high only because of higher oil costs, which he blamed on Biden.

No.

Do people really believe this?
The number reason we had high inflation:

PEOPLE CONTINUED GETTING PAID DURING THE PANDEMIC EVEN THOUGH THEY WEREN'T WORKING, ALL PAID FOR BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.

If Trump is elected, why do people believe he will ever leave?

This time he goes in having learned his lessons from Jan 6 — that he needs to fill the top military and nat sec positions with people personally loyal to him from the start, not just in the final weeks.
Reminder that if Trump wins, there is a 99 pct chance he will have a GOP run Senate.

Which will confirm whomever he wants for whatever job he wants. Count on it.
And if by chance the Senate refuses to confirm, say, Stephen Miller as attorney general or Steve Bannon as head of CIA, what’s to stop him from just letting them run those agencies as “acting”?

NEW -- Biden's running against a guy who tried to end our democracy last time and talks about ruling as an autocrat next time, so why isn't that the message all day, every day?

Well ... maybe because a scary number of Americans would be okay with that?

huffpost.com/entry/biden-tr…
Per Pew:

26% of Americans believe that an autocracy is a “very good” or “somewhat good” form of government, while another 28% think it’s only “somewhat bad.”
15% surveyed said they think military rule would be good, and another 23% believe it would be only “somewhat bad.”
Of course, Biden has devoted some half dozen speeches specifically to Trump's ongoing threat to democracy.

At the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2022. Independence Hall that September. Valley Forge this January.
