"Donald Trump has vowed he would 'never drop out' of next year’s presidential race, even if he is convicted on criminal charges...."

"'I’d never drop out,' Trump told Carlson yesterday. 'It’s not my thing. I wouldn’t do it'" (London Times).
The former president claimed staff and officers at the lower Manhattan courthouse where he was booked were visibly emotional. 
“They were incredible,” said Trump. “When I went to the courthouse, which is also a prison in a sense, they signed me in and I’ll tell you people were crying, people that . . . professionally work there, that have no problems putting in murderers and they see everybody.”

And he had this to say about Macron's trip to China: “You got this crazy world, it’s blowing up and the United States has absolutely no say. And Macron, who’s a friend of mine, is over with China, kissing his ass. ‘OK, in China!’ I said. ‘France is now going to China!’”

It was an impressive interview.

Within a day the NYT will have “reports” that the NYPD booking officials were cheering and smiling. Fake News.

As much as I love Trump and think he would do a great job in a second term, he can’t win. He’s been demonized. And women hate him.

@Dave Begley "And women hate him."

That's the root cause and the reason why many freely attack Trump with no fear of retribution. Many women indeed passionately hate him and it's easy enough to buy off / bribe others to push an opponent to victory. Men would reelect him no problem, but I don't see a 2nd Trump term in the cards.

Echoes of Bush vs. Clinton. vs. Perot in 1992.

Bu...but...Trump said pussy! Arrgh why do people still like him so much!? Didn't they get the memo about what he said!?

Mommy mommy...WHY DO THEY STILL LIKE HIM?

They’re also the most malleable. By the time the primaries start we’re going to have a very serious reality. Those same women vote out of fear. They are probably gonna fear the Biden administration and its trail of death, violence, corruption and blood thirsty war mongering a lot more than Donald Trump.

And women hate him.

Then they deserve to bury their sons, killed in whatever war Biden and the establishment drag us into next.

Jamie म्हणाले...

Oh, for heaven's sake.

I voted for the guy twice, knowing full well that he's a tireless self-promoter - but in politics many if not most people either are or get that way as their public profile rises. That in itself isn't a barrier, to me, to his election. But it is very enervating, and we can be sure that (even on Fox) instances of his self-promotion will be primarily what will be reported on, rather than anything resembling substance.

It's no wonder those who hate him hate him so much. They're barraged with stuff like this rather than reportage dealing with what he actually does or did, often in contrast to what he says or said (something that used to be part of the diplomatic and political skillsets - say what you must to keep things calm, do what is necessary and proper to further the aims of the country). He wasn't a perfect president (his own opinion no doubt notwithstanding), but he was very far from the mendacious buffoon those who hate him think he is.

And Biden is very much closer.

Look at Trump's vitality.

Compare/contrast to Biden.

This is a good juxtaposition for America as we debate age limits for elected office.

Biden is too 'old', Trump is not.

What's FJB in French?

Both our "allies" and our adversaries are reading the current US gang correctly. But what if it's not an unintended consequence, and that gang wants our decline?

Gunner म्हणाले...

It is obvious by now that the vast majority of Gary Johnson voters in 2016 would have voted Hillary if he had not been on the ballot. Can some EverTrumper tell me how he wins without a somewhat competent third party candidate in 2024? The Dems will not allow that again.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...

Some men love Trump. It's powerful emotional love.... from men.


Trump craps all over the very people he needs to help him win. Trump is an inarticulate televangelist buffoon. That's not hate - (If I hated him - I wouldn't defend him against the corrupt "RUSSIA RUSSIA MUELLER MADDOW! NBC Lying Liars who Lie)

At least some folks are realizing that with Trump as the nominee - we get 4 more years of old drooling dithering puppet above-the-law - FBI approved Deep State Crook Biden.

I'd be satisfied to simply know the names of each of the court officers, NYPD officers, and courthouse staffers who were crying, with tears streaming down their cheeks, and urging Trump to win in 2024.

Then we'd know what was fake.

rcocean म्हणाले...

I bet they were emotional. Because everyone knows this is a political abuse of power, and has ZERO To do with criminal justice.

Its something a bannana republic would do.

You expect it from the Democrats, who have no patriotism, no class, and no morals. but the silence from the GOP establishment is deafening. that's why you don't elect assholes like Romney, Ryan, Bush, cheney, and McConnell. They don't care about the country and they don't care about the republican party. They're globalists out for themselves and the uniparty.

I fail to believe that NYC Criminal Courts employees would cry over anyone being arraigned for any crime. More of Trump's compulsive self-aggrandizing non-stop wordstream.

"And Macron, who’s a friend of mine, is over with China, kissing his ass."

Flip-side Inga (HBTPFH): "What a poorly stated 2nd grade sentence. ugh."

A sentence that perfectly and accurately sums up precisely what Macron did.

I suspect, given Flip-side Inga's (HBTPFH) history at Althouse blog, Flip-side Inga is always immediately and viscerally repelled by concise statements that reflect undeniable reality.

All you have to do is provide a candidate that will deliver the Trump policies without the Trump drama.

It seems so tantalizingly simple! Yet, so strangely difficult to do.

I wonder why that might be?

boatbuilder म्हणाले...

Perhaps what Trump is trying to do is to convey to those whose primary motivation is fear that there are some very real things to fear. He's trying to harness that.

Unfortunately the response of most people to overwhelming fear is to run away from the source, or pretend that it doesn't exist, and listen to the soothing words of those who tell them that they will be "safe" if they vote for them.

Hooker: "And Macron, who’s a friend of mine, is over with China, kissing his ass. "

"What a poorly stated 2nd grade sentence. ugh."

Did you understand what was being conveyed? Would you have preferred a position paper? Perhaps something that the media could chew up, break down and tell us what he really meant?

He is far from smooth, but he is very articulate in making his point.

Flip-side Inga (HBTPFH): "Trump likes Gavin Newsom now.

It comes as no surprise to anyone that has paid at least minimal attention over the last 4 decades that Trump has gotten along well on a personal level with people of all stripes over that entire time period.

Of course, the group of people that have paid at least minimal attention necessarily excludes Flip-side Inga (HBTPFH)...obviously.

And yes GOPe-er, I believe Trump's ability to get along with people of all types to be a positive characteristic.

Drago म्हणाले...

We ought to start a fun game of "Guess The Author: HBTPFH or LLR-democratical Chuck?"

Limited Blogger- 1st thing I noticed.
I heard a snippet of Biden on the radio talking in Ireland. Wow- he’s almost intelligible. I had to listen closely as his words aren’t enunciated well, I man- at all.

Leader of the Free World.
Groping for his marbles &litte girls.
How lucky are we?

How do you know that, exactly? I’m seriously curious.

Once the shit gets real, Trump will be the go-to guy.

Rosalyn C. म्हणाले...

I just read that Trump is suing Cohen for $500 million and any profits Cohen makes peddling his stories about Trump. Trump fights back, he doesn't quit. Somehow I think it's because he was raised at a church where the pastor taught the power of positive thinking. (Marble Collegiate church, led by the Reverend Norman Vincent Peale). That's the energy Trump exudes and what this country needs, and why so many people love him. That's what attracted me to him.

As far as whether there was anyone in NYC who got teary-eyed about Trump being booked and humiliated for political purposes, I bet there was at least one person there who was grieved about doing that. Just like I bet there were some officers at the Capitol on 1/6 and afterwards who were appalled by the corruption and deliberate incompetence of their bosses and how the American people were being gaslighted and duped by the powerful, and how the police were forced to do the dirty work for them. Might account for all the suicides afterwards, but I don't know.

"Donald Trump has vowed he would 'never drop out' of next year’s presidential race, even if he is convicted on criminal charges...."

Well, I was told Trump could kill someone on a prominent Manhattan street and everyone would still vote for him, so he has some basis for his claim.

When we point that out about you it immediately becomes one your big "whine-meister" complaints to Althouse.

People say a lot of things about Trump.

But they never say he's selling the country out to a foreign power.

It'a a glaring omission.

Some classic Biden "stuttering" in that Easter interview with journalist Al Roker.
But hey, Joementia's vital enough to Zombie sign his way through all those groovy executive orders like they were fan autographs.
But still, give Team Juice credit for their efforts to keep him upright...aside from those pesky stairs.

And there it is. The complete and utter merging of Flip-side Inga's stupidity with our regular Inga's.

I suppose this Flip-side Inga emotional and unthinking lashing out and descent into irretrievable idiocy was always going to be inevitable, but its still something to behold when you see it happen in real time.

From this point on, Flip-side Inga will always be known as the moron that claims Trump and his supporters are actually democrats.

Congrats Flip-side Inga (HBTPFH). You didnt just jump the shark, you just "jumped" the entire shiver of sharks.

Haha. Hahaha.

Pretty sure you’re reading the room- wrongly. Idk whatall Trump did that the taste in your mouth is so bad, I used to think you believed in free thinking and e/person allowed to hold opinions. It’s a strange thing to hear you like this- when I remember when… back then- you were as pleased as we. Were.

Be best.
America 1st.

Flip-side Inga (HBTPFH) is reresentative of the very target audience for the combined left/dem/GOPe talking point brigade because they know she is an exceedingly easy mark.
