Book goes on sale 7/20/21...

Lots of discussion on talk shows about this book.... reportedly Donald initially gleeful what his people would do for him..... then as hours passed, hit him exactly what he had done by not stopping insurrection.... Ivanka had  numerous discussions--- had to twist his arm to get him to tweet any response..

Trump’s Catastrophic Final Year.” Part two (The inside story of Trumps defiance and inaction on Jan 6th)  can be found here.   Carol Leonnig and Philip Rucker will discuss this book during a Washington Post Live event on July 20.

I realized 1 year ago how Trump starting talking" fraudulent election" if he lost was setting up his followers for the Big Lie.
 
One can see how FOX News calling Arizona for Biden helped foil this plan.

Indeed.  

Trump was talking election fraud nonsense as early as April of 2020, if I'm not mistaken.  Lies about election integrity are the go to strategy for despots and dictators.  Trump is not creative...he follows the recipe as well as an undisciplined narcissist is able to.

Brilliant 

I am frequently around wealthy, supposedly intelligent, successful people and it is probably me but I judge intelligent people by their interests, curiosity and conversations. 90% of the time their conversations centre around their usage of their money in relation to comfort and life quality displays (showing off). 

They use their money to navigate life without actually knowing much about anything except how they make their money. 

Trump is about grifting! That's my contribution!

It's a study in gullibility that Trump supporters give Trump money because he wants to fight "election fraud" or some other emotional trigger to separate fools from their money and their self interests...and Trump uses that money to maintain his grifter lifestyle...not to tackle the triggers used to get the money.

Since leaving office, Trump has repeatedly pushed for various states to overturn the election results, sending out a blizzard of statements with unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud. He has consulted with state officials in Arizona, Pennsylvania and Georgia, and has described state ballot reviews as the key to prove he won the 2020 election. And his political group has repeatedly urged donors to give by claiming that Trump is working to protect their vote — fundraising pitches that his advisers say remain the most lucrative.
“We need you to join the fight to SECURE OUR ELECTIONS!” reads one facebook ad.

Correct, the fraudit in Arizona is being paid by the taxpayers of Arizona.  So sadly, all Arizonans are footing the bill for the racist cult followers of Donald J Trump and for the crazies and nut jobs who support the Trump supporting GOP that are hopeful that the results of the fraud will put that complete and total LOSER/dictator wannabe and white nationalist back into office.  It is unconstitutional, but that is OK with them; they are no different than our nation state enemies! 

They are the supporters of the Trump terrorist who assaulted the Capitol on January 6.  They are also the same group that prefer an autocracy for our country rather than a democracy.  So, we need to continue the fight.

The most damning evidence against Trump

It's going to be more and more difficult for Trumpublicans to ignore the pattern of corrupt behavior that is etched into the history of his corrupt presidency.  Journalists are motivated to expose Trump.

Yes. There are a number of republican figures that should keep their heads down and hope that their names don't feature as prominently as Meadows will in the exposure of these unamerican pursuits for Trump. Remember when Mulvaney said that quid pro quo was everyday business in the Trump administration?
