âHeâs more delusional than I thoughtâ: Libertarians jeer Trump during convention speech
"You should nominate me or at least vote for me," Trump told the audience. "Only do that if you want to win," he continued.
'Go for the win instead of holding to your ideals' is not really the message I'd expect would win over the libertarians. It's not like they aren't comfortable losing elections.
âHappy Memorial Day to All, including the Human Scum that is working so hard to destroy our Once Great Country,â the former president wrote on Truth Social today
âHeâs more delusional than I thoughtâ: Libertarians jeer Trump during convention speech
If Donald Trump came to the Libertarian National Convention to make peace on Saturday, it could hardly have gone worse.
Within minutes of beginning speaking âand after enduring sustained jeering and boos â the former president turned on the third party, mocking its poor electoral record in presidential elections even as he appealed to them for their endorsement.
Biden needs to act fast while EVERYTHING a President does is legal.
Stand over the body with his shades and a smoking machine gun and growl, âAnyone else got any questions?â
I was wondering why seal team 6 was on the Mar-a-Lago raid.
The moment Biden has him killed... the value is gonna skyrocket! Act fast!
(aside: He's losing his mind, and the MAGAverse just keeps ignoring, projecting, and excusing. Another serious WTF moment)

I only have until June 14 to accept my exclusive offer to purchase a commemorative Donald Trump coin (99.9% silver plated!). This exclusive offer arrived in yesterdayâs mail.
I need to act now. I already missed out on the Trump Bible and the Trump gold sneakers.

I believe Supreme Court justices (perhaps not the current bunch) have already indicated that the President cannot pardon himself. The DOJ has already issued an opinion on this.
If that option had been available to Nixon, an accomplished lawyer in his youth, he would have jumped at the chance.
The only things the current Supreme Court has in common with the one that decided Roe v. Wade are the robes and the office space.
Thomas and Alito would both have resigned in the early 1970s, something they refuse to consider in this partisan court. Look at how they are dragging their feet on the "immunity" case... which is solely to prevent Trump from going to trial before November.
I agree with the notion that no one should be allowed to decide their case, but it's not something I'd trust the current SCOTUS with.
Let's assume the NY one is settled either way, that leaves 3. The 2 Jack Smith cases could theoretically be pardoned, but the GA case can't.
There is a lot of discussion about whether a President can pardon themselves, but let's assume the SCOTUS allows it.
The GA case would have to wait until he's out of office.... which would give him good reason to want to stay in office beyond 2028.
His losing in November would be a lot easier for everyone... minus one.

As for Trump's base: if they riot because of a Trump conviction, let it happen. As Dubya said, "Bring it." It's past time for law-abiding Americans to stand up to this cult which seems to love criminals "fighting for them." Not sure how Trump was fighting for the little guy by hoarding classified documents in a spare MAL bathroom but maybe I'm looking for logic from people who don't hold with such things.

Except that many of his minions will riot and there will be no end to the rigged election conspiracies. November looks quite terrifying.
If Trump wins in November, he'll appoint an Attorney General who will drop all the cases against him. At that point, you can say that American democracy is dead.
So... Not all of the cases are the same.

No defense was presented. The guy who they wanted to use for defense made Michael Cohen sound reasonable and honest... which is hard to do.
We can argue all day about the decision to charge him... but the reality is that he's guilty of the charges. The defense seems to think they have seated at least one person who will defend Trump and force a mistrial.
"...the reality is that he's guilty of the charges."
That pretty much sums up the four major cases against Trump. No one in their right mind is contending that he's innocent. Instead, there's a collective breath-holding to see whether Trump can escape the consequences of his crimes, like you'd do while watching "The Sopranos" or "Breaking Bad."

Well, any of you who have been on juries before know that the decision isnât made logically. Makes me incredibly afraid of ever being put on trial when innocent.
I would bet that Trump insisted that his lawyers put Costello on the stand. And Costelloâs testimony/performance yesterday was meant for Trumpâs eyes and ears. It hurt his defense.
Agreed.
