Did I hear that Trump says his people won't allow

[malaise]

his tax crimes to be investigated and that the court should examine the election crimes against him, He also believes that he is still president?
When will they institutionalize this fascist lunatic?

Does anyone have a link to his latest rant?

2. Thanks - I heard Rachel with some of it

He's beyond sick

[intheflow]

14. That statement is suspiciously coherent and grammatically correct.

NOT A SINGLE ALL-CAP SENTENCE!!! I suspect Miller or another of his minions wrote it based on whatever he was ranting about at the time.

Edited to add: coherent, as in logically put together. The ideas are, of course, absolutely delusional.

24. Being he can't Tweet anymore,

he probably dictated that and someone else typed it. I cannot imagine Trump sitting at a computer and actually typing anything. The tone and language sounds like him, though someone else might have polished it a tad.

3. This is what rump does. He implies he has people that will physically harm courts by mob or mafia.

If it actually happens and people call him out for legal punishment he will say "his people" was a term for legal and political means to block the court. His open threats are made stronger by his vague statements and plausible deniability. Putin does this. He is a wannabe dictator. We are lucky he is out of office and he needs to be punished to the full extent of the law.

4. "His people" are probably the SC justices.

I don't think he has the ability to understand that the 3 he appointed may not always do as he orders them to do. He believes he owns those 3 justices.

[sarge43]

25. To his dying day he'll believe that a president owns the government

That boy ain't right in the head.

[snowybirdie]

5. At this point

he's becoming rather pathetic. Sitting on the side lines, ranting to the clouds.

6. Just send in the guys with the nets...

7. At this point Trump is, at best, a raving, old coot yelling at kids to get off the lawn.

So he'll probably be the GOP nominee next time around.

[BSdetect]

8. He's the biggest menace in the USA/ A complete nutjob capable of any crime.

He will likely try to increase his base to attempt a bigger more violent coup.

That he can incite so many idiots is troubling.

11. Vanity Fair excerpt from what he calls "The Continuing Political Persecution of

Donald Trump".

Trump's statement:

[This] is all Democrat-inspired in a totally Democrat location, New York City and State, completely controlled and dominated by a heavily reported enemy of mine, Governor Andrew Cuomo. These are attacks by Democrats willing to do anything to stop the almost 75 million people (the most votes, by far, ever gotten by a sitting president) who voted for me in the election—an election which many people, and experts, feel that I won. I agree!

The new phenomenon of “headhunting” prosecutors and AGs—who try to take down their political opponents using the law as a weapon—is a threat to the very foundation of our liberty. That’s what is done in third world countries. Even worse are those who run for prosecutorial or attorney general offices in far-left states and jurisdictions pledging to take out a political opponent. That’s fascism, not justice—and that is exactly what they are trying to do with respect to me, except that the people of our Country won’t stand for it.

In the meantime, murders and violent crime are up in New York City by record numbers, and nothing is done about it. Our elected officials don’t care. All they focus on is the persecution of President Donald J. Trump. I will fight on, just as I have, for the last five years (even before I was successfully elected), despite all of the election crimes that were committed against me. We will win!

Vanity Fair's take:

...Trump—a person who incited a violent riot in the hopes of overturning the election—believes that crimes have been committed against him, and, despite the fact that he literally tried to use the Justice Department to investigate enemies, that he is the victim of political “persecution.”

So now he is employing the word fascism to describe Democrats. He probably finally got his head on straight about what antifa means and wants to re-invent this boogeyman to deflect back onto the ruling party, posing as some revolutionary in exile. And of course, the sedition caucus wants to help him.

[alfredo]

12. Him calling us Fascist, that's rich.

[ancianita]

16. Not only that, he's likely going to take this word & revolutionary scenario to CPAC.

This is their historically used "Flip Strategy." (not a real term, I just invented it).
It's similar to the one they used back when their racist demographic left the Democratic Party of the South to join the Republican Party -- the whole shift was over LBJ's Civil Rights Act. And so the racists previously of the Civil War Democratic Party became the racist demographic of the Republican Party and have remained ever since.

This time, with the flip of a word back on his opponents, he might force a shift that results in a newly proposed party or or dominant wing, unless Biden's AG successfully presses charges against the sedition caucus, undermining their legal credibility.

I'm not putting money on my hunch yet, but I believe that's where he's going.

We should be ready to demolish this move in the press.

[alfredo]

18. I agree

[empedocles]

19. trump sees cpac, most likely, as his last best chance. From traitortrump point of

view, no real limits on what he might try.

[ancianita]

22. Can't agree. He's got McCarthy & the sedition caucus on board & sees CPAC as his launch pad.

He's not just "trying."

How we keep losing is that we think they're using losing strategies.

This CPAC event has to be taken seriously.

We can't keep mocking and joking about these opponents. They have a lot of corporate $$ and PR backing, and will use the victim card to great effect unless Biden can prove he's really helped all Americans. Even then they'll deny all the help Democrats give this country.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

26. He's counting on the MSM to get his message out to the faithful.

Fox, NewsMax and OANN will run any speech live in its entirety, and the other cable channels will devote enough time to it so his presence will dominate the news cycle. Trump knows he's like catnip to the MSM -- they can't get enough of him.

[Tommymac]

21. I don't see it. He is going to be laughed out of town in the long run.

Frump is a cooked goose.

Trumpism is not - it will be renamed and it will persist.

White Supremacy is the real danger to The People in the next generation to come.

As the 2030's approach the day will come where people of color will become the majority in the USA. It's inevitable.

That is why We must shine the light on this authoritarian 'neo-conservative' political minority rat colony.

[ancianita]

23. I hear you. But he won't be laughed out of town by the 74 million who will buy into his new

strategy, which includes all kinds of rebranding lingo. Not only do they now use "Radical Left," they'll start using "Radical Left Press" and fascism to describe the whole legal onslaught Trump faces.

Yes, we must shine a fact-based light on them. But we mustn't present them as laughable or mockable because that is how our side becomes complacent.

Regardless of a future Black majority, we must, in the meantime, stay vigilant against them until they're indicted and either expelled or jailed.

For as long as we see their activities as a game, we also have to see that it still works.

[Retrograde]

28. "He is going to be laughed out of town"

I said that back in 2015. I'm a lousy prophet.

Donnie is as resilient as a cockroach. As long as the MSM think he's good for ratings and hence bringing in the ad revenue he's not going to go away. He's the diversion, something people watch while the oligarchs behind him empty our wallets.

[Celerity]

35. 'White Supremacy is the real danger to The People in the next generation to come.'

Trump IS the number one power projection entity for white power, atm. He is a hugely effective con man and psychological manipulator. He breathes a continental-wide (global even due to the internet) breath into it as an animating force that drives the RW.

17. Lock her up! Lock her up! Lock her up!

The new phenomenon of “headhunting” prosecutors and AGs—who try to take down their political opponents using the law as a weapon—is a threat to the very foundation of our liberty.

CLINTON: … it’s just awfully good that someone with the temperament of Donald Trump is not in charge of the law in our country.

TRUMP: Because you’d be in jail.

... an election which many people, and experts, feel that I won. I agree!

13. Republican/Nazi's say, ignore the crimes and listen to our lies.

voting white power lone wolf types and deep cells.)
