215lbs is hilarious. He’d need a build like Stephen merchant to be that weight for his height.[emoji23]Quote:

The NFL quarterback comparison doesn't seem relevant as they are presumably 100 kg of muscle (making them technically overweight for their height in BMI terms – normal weight metrics don't really make sense for those kind of athletes).
Am I miles off here? What weight do you think he really is?
215 lbs, but some of those are alternative pounds.Quote:

Donald Trump vows to lock up political enemies if he returns to White House
Former president tells Glenn Beck he would have ‘no choice’ but to lock up opponents ‘because they’re doing it to us
I saw clips of Mitch McConnell looking extremely unwell where he simply stops functioning for a long spell at a press conference. Wouldn't surprise me if Trump took the piss out of him.
Just saw that. Definite need for an age limit for public office in the US.Quote:

My guess that he is senile, or more accurately has 'dementia' (accepting that I may be wrong) , is based largely on my experience of family members that have gone through similar phases where they appear to be lucid, then suddenly change to appear confused/disoriented
This a good article that describes typical symptoms.
https://alzheimer.ca/en/about-dement...signs-dementia
You might be right; we don't know. I suppose I was being a bit pedantic about him 'clearly' looking senile. It's a possible explanation for the kind of 'absences' that he's been suffering, but there are other possibilities. My first thought was that he's suffering after effects of a stroke.Quote:

Anyway, whether dementia or something else, I think we're both agreed that it's time for him to call it a day.
It is but there is a simple answer - he retires. No one is forcing him up there.Quote:

Maybe he's just one of those people who cling on because they think they're indispensable. Maybe he genuinely thinks he can rein in the lunatics.
He's one of the lunatics though. He believes the same things as Trump. He just goes about it with a little more tact but the end result is the same.Quote:

He's somebody who apparently hates Trump, knows exactly who he is and the dangers he presents to the country, has publicly blamed him for the Jan 6 riot, could have stopped him in his tracks and didn't. Twice.Quote:

Even if you somehow actually do believe Biden would auto pardon Trump (personally I struggle to understand that narrative) the President can only pardon those that have been found guilty of federal offences.Quote:

Former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly finally goes on the record about his former boss. It should be devastating.
https://edition.cnn.com/2023/10/02/p...ans/index.html
Quote:
“What can I add that has not already been said?” Kelly said, when asked if he wanted to weigh in on his former boss in light of recent comments made by other former Trump officials. “A person that thinks those who defend their country in uniform, or are shot down or seriously wounded in combat, or spend years being tortured as POWs are all ‘suckers’ because ‘there is nothing in it for them.’ A person that did not want to be seen in the presence of military amputees because ‘it doesn’t look good for me.’ A person who demonstrated open contempt for a Gold Star family – for all Gold Star families – on TV during the 2016 campaign, and rants that our most precious heroes who gave their lives in America’s defense are ‘losers’ and wouldn’t visit their graves in France.
“A person who is not truthful regarding his position on the protection of unborn life, on women, on minorities, on evangelical Christians, on Jews, on working men and women,” Kelly continued. “A person that has no idea what America stands for and has no idea what America is all about. A person who cavalierly suggests that a selfless warrior who has served his country for 40 years in peacetime and war should lose his life for treason – in expectation that someone will take action. A person who admires autocrats and murderous dictators. A person that has nothing but contempt for our democratic institutions, our Constitution, and the rule of law.
“There is nothing more that can be said,” Kelly concluded. “God help us.”
well said De Niro :agree: Robert De Niro Rips Donald Trump: He’s “Evil” | The New Republic
I’ve spent a lot of time studying bad men. I’ve examined their characteristics, their mannerisms, the utter banality of their cruelty. Yet there’s something different about Donald Trump. When I look at him, I don’t see a bad man. Truly.
I see an evil one.
Over the years, I’ve met gangsters here and there. This guy tries to be one, but he can’t quite pull it off. There’s such a thing as “honor among thieves.” Yes, even criminals usually have a sense of right and wrong. Whether they do the right thing or not is a different story—but—they have a moral code, however warped.
Donald Trump does not. He’s a wannabe tough guy with no morals or ethics. No sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself—not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them.
It's sad to watch. Someone, his family, friends, should step in.

He has problems in Georgia too where Sidney Powell his mad lawyer has plead guilty on a plea deal to trying to overturn the election result in that state, she has been given 6 years probation and will be compelled to testify against Trump if called by the prosecution, but given their strong case that might not have to happen.
It is crazy that he is the republican's front runner for 2024, he could literally be in jail whist contesting the presidency. It would of course test the US legal system as to whether he could become President again but there is precedent for a candidate campaigning from jail before. If he does manage to get into power again it will be a scary world, the worlds largest military machine in the hands of a want-to-be dictator!!
don't just threaten, freakin do it the big orange radge just can't keep his big gub shut Judge threatens to jail Trump for 'blatant' gag order violation - BBC News and do it before someone is killed
A New York judge has threatened Donald Trump with jail for a "blatant violation" of a gag order in his civil fraud trial.
Judge Arthur Engoron said in court that the former president had failed to remove a social media post mocking a clerk at the court.
Judge Engoron demanded Mr Trump take down the "untrue and disparaging" post about the clerk earlier this month.
He said the post was deleted on social media, but remained on his website.
"Incendiary untruths can and have led to serious physical harm," Judge Engoron said on Friday.
Is it just me that thinks he will never see jail because the fallout would be so seismic that the government would struggle to control it?

Surely he’s playing for time so he can get elected then pardon himself?
He had the chance to pardon himself before but knew how the optics would look so pleaded innocence. Now he’s portraying it as a witch hunt which is seeing him leading in the polls.
I must say, I hate him. I hate what he did in Scotland. I think he is an absolute buffoon but there is so many cases against him, it’s hard to not believe it is a bit of a witch hunt.
He is facing charges in Georgia where it’s a mandatory 5 years. He can’t pardon himself from that. And even if Georgia elects a friendly governor, he has no pardon power.Quote:

But…things like over inflating his wealth to get loans etc. I’m sure many do that. If he defaulted on a loan and the bank investigated and he was found to have given false statements then yes I can understand the charges.
But no one is bringing a case against him apart from the state.
I think it would be better to have 3-4 absolutely solid cases against him and nail him. Instead you have so many cases that it gives his supporters a cause to fight against.
The state is bringing charges because he undervalued his properties for the purpose of paying less tax on them as well.Quote:

This case refers to a section of the 14th Amendment which states anyone involved in an insurrection or rebellion, or who gives aid or comfort to those who carry out an insurrection, cannot run for president. He has moved to dismiss twice now and the judge has just chucked out the second movement to dismiss which should mean this will now move to trial, his first application to dismiss was based on the 1st amendment and that was chucked out last week, that was more likely to succeed. The 2nd motion to dismiss was based on the 'fact' that the presidential oath doesn't require the President to 'support' the constitution but to 'protect and defend' it, which his legal team says it means he is not under any obligation to follow the constitution. Which is mental and never likely to succeed. If this goes against him at trial, he will not be able to run for President in 2024.Quote:

There are a few saying that he would force through new laws to allow him to pardon himself at state level too but lets be clear, if he wins a second term the laws and constitution of the USA will become pretty irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.

A but like someone saying they shouldn’t pay a parking ticket because they don’t need to adhere to double yellows, then when that fails, they’ve essentially said they were parked on the lines.
His acceptance will never be forthcoming, that comes from his narcissism, he can do not wrong in his own eyes, even if it is clear as day to everyone else, I believe Trump will still think it is a stitch up when everything goes breasts skywards. The fact is his lawyers are no longer 'top' lawyers, they are pretty low grade, he has gone downhill since he employed Sidney Powell who is likely to be disbarred in the coming months. So almost everything he will try from now on will be outlandish to say the least! The fact his lawyers actually had to write down the phrase "the presidential oath doesn't require the President to 'support' the constitution but to 'protect and defend' it" and submit it to a judge tells you almost everything you need to know about what level lawyers the man is down to now, his propensity to not pay lawyers is well known and will usually relieve you of not just the top layer of lawyers but the majority of them immediately and the rest will want payment up front will hinder all his dealing in court. It would all be really funny if there was not so much riding on it all.Quote:

Trump is a moron, racist, fascist, rapist who can barely string a sentence together. If you vote for him you are trash.

Democrats would come back and say yes but look how stupid he is. Many swing voters thought it was middle class sneering and looking down.
We probably get the same with brexit. The less educated on average and the lower your household income the more likely you were to vote for brexit. 60% of households earning under 20k voted brexit 35% of over 60k.
It's easy to call them stupid, I prefer to think better of them and say they were manipulated and lied to by a very well oiled machine.
