The Official Former President Trump thread

Every time you think the United States can't f**k itself up any more, you get shit like this. 

As a resident of the neighbouring country it's really starting to get concerning.  For the longest time I've satisfied myself with the fact that they have always been a bit fucked down there, but now they are really fucked

Presidents have immunity. Americans love a gun. Can't Biden just officially fatally shoot the Donald in the face at their next debate? 

Obviously there are questions about his ability to point a gun the right way etc, but the strategists need to think outside the box here.

Agnostic polling of policies returns favorable ratings of Democratic policies averaging 20%+ more favorable than Trump’s. When they don’t identify the party, most respondents like Democratic polices significantly more…it’s just that people vote party over policy, many can’t even identify their party’s policies correctly. Thank goodness that Democrats and Republicans are mired at about 30-35% and 35-40% of the electorate, and the independents effectively make the decision. At least they sometimes look at policy.

Is this immunity stuff mentioned in the Constitution somewhere because I thought these conservative originalists were all about what the constitution says about a matter. Abortion not mentioned overturn Roe states decide, Presidential immunity not mentioned lets make a set of rules with no legislative backing for them. Seems a bit hypocritical no? 

39 dead presidents will be birling in their graves. Well, not FDR - the polio and all - but the rest of them will be thinking about what they could have done if they'd known this at the time.

Trump wants the hush money conviction overturned in light of the SCOTUS immunity ruling.

Aye man baby, falsifying business records to cover up a hush money payment to a porn star definitely falls within the scope of an official Presidential act.

If they had a decent Presidential candidate, or policies that helped the working class they would have trounced Trump.

They had in Sanders but were happy to let Trump win over any shift to the left. It's like the Old Firm, 2 rotten to the core sides.

The identified issue is the use of statements (tweets, or truths, or whatever) that might now be inadmissible in both the Hush Money and Fraud cases. (money autocorrected to mommy…maybe Apple knows something?)

With Biden's apparent slide into senility and the Supreme Court deciding that what America really needs is a monarchy, I've given up any hope of the Duck being kept out of the White House.  There's nobody who seems willing to replace Biden, so that, as they say, is that.

Rumours swirling, only person polled that has better numbers than Biden against Trump is….Michelle Obama. I don’t see how that would even potentially happen, but some strange s**t is going down. Now also rumours RFK Jr is facing sexual assault charges…

I’ve only seen polls that show support for various other Dem candidates, based on the opinions of Dem supporters. I haven’t seen much in terms of cross-party support for Dem candidates…though haven’t done much searching tbh.

 

I recall seeing a poll taken about a month ago that showed a third of Republican supporters had an appreciation for Shapiro. With that in mind, I can see no other obvious candidate for the Dems.

 

Edit to add: only took one search. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/ Good lord TX, that Michelle v Trump poll is astonishing. Shapiro also loses against Trump.

 

Michelle it is, lads.

I (sadly) don’t believe the poll, simply because too many racists would lie to pollsters about their absolute willingness to vote for an African-American (let alone a female) over a white (let alone a male).

That might be it. I’m also aware there is a widespread conspiracy theory that she’s actually a man. So that at least gets rid of half the distaste for republican voters.

Maybe some but not sure people getting polled are so organised for mass lying.

No, but there are plenty who will lie to your face about not being racist. After all, they have black friends.
