Trump- the Disaster Years

They say the best offense is a good defense. One thing I despise about Trump is his extreme dishonesty and abuse of the court system. He has a history of suing people, entities, companies and organizations as a weapon (not for legitimate legal purposes). The infamous Epstein 50th birthday card is a fact. When the Wall Street Journal reported on it (which has since been released in response to a congressional subpoena since the story), he sued them. Trump sued the Wall Street journal for defamation over this truth (truth is a defense and will set you free) for $10 billion dollars. As Ronald Collins reported, "When it comes to civil litigation, Trump is in a league of his own. By one account, Trump has been involved in more than 4,000 civil lawsuits over the years, ranging from business disputes to defamation and other actions. Even for someone like Trump, who has been involved in a variety of complex business ventures, that is a remarkable number of civil actions. One lesson ...

For a list of 73 things Trump has said about women please read here . Trump says he wants more female support, but has not changed how he talks about women on so many levels. Back in October of 2016, the Washington Post published the infamous tape where Donald Trump bragged to Access Hollywood anchorman Billy Bush “I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it, you can do anything… grab them by the pussy.” J ean Carroll sued Trump. A jury verdict in May 2023 found Trump liable for sexually abusing and defaming Carroll. Here is a story on 20 ways in which the Trump Administration has harmed women and families. Congress has yet to relase the Epstein files but this we know: Epstein sent his girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell an email reading, "“i want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is trump. [Victim] spent hours at my house with him , he has never once been mentioned,” (victim’s name redacted.) Time to release the Epstein files: ALL of them. It is sca...

How is this happening? Trump announces cheaper prices for pharmaceuticals on Trump RX. Why is it called Trump RX? Obamacare is not a real name. It is the ACA (Affordable Care Act)- Marketplace Exchange. Republicans came up with the term Obamacare for derogatory purposes. No government website should have Trump's name on it. According to NPR, "The website deals would only be accessible for patients not using their health insurance, according to one of the government officials briefing reporters anonymously. And even then, the discounted medicines might not be affordable because they're based on high drug list prices." This news comes out as the Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF), nonprofit organization that provides nonpartisan information on health policy, estmates 22 million Americans who get Obamacare tax credits will see their monthly premiums more than double on average. Oh- have to mention Trump pardoned his partner in crime, attorney (and former New York may...

The people rose up yesterday and there was a referendum on Trump. Trump does not represent the best interests of the country. He has made it clear, he only helps Republicans. Well, yesterday the people went to the polls and overwhelmingly voted Democrat (from Prop 50 in California to electing 2 Democrat governors in New Jersay and Virginia). All people matter. No post today. The election results are enough!

Trump has threatened to withhold SNAP benefits (supplemental nutrition assistance program) until the government shutdown has ended. This is harsh. A decent human being does not jeopardize the nutrition and health of children and impoverished people to get his way. 2024 numbers show approximately 1 in 8 Americans receiving SNAP benefits. A federal judge ordered the Trump administration to pay the SNAP benefits. Despite the Court's order, Trump wrote on Truth Social (Tuesday) that SNAP "will be given only when those Radical Left Democrats open up the government, which they can easily do, and not before!" After the post, the White House now says it will comply with the judge's order. Why is the government shutdown? Why is Trump telling Republicans not to talk to Democrats? Both sides must agree to a budget bill. The Republicans do not have enough votes in the Senate to pass a budget bill without working with Democrats. The big issue preventing a negotiation is th...

No surprise. Donors to Trump's White House ballroom have $279 billion in federal contracts. Some donors are being investigated by the feds. The donors were given an opportunity to remain anonymous (does not mean Trump doesn't know who they are). Among donors whose identity have not been released to the public are: health care companies Vantive and Extremity Care (seeking to shape Medicare reimbursement rates for their products), Wall Street powerhouse BlackRock (bidding to acquire a stake in Panama Canal ports & supported by Trump), and Jeff Yass, a major investor in TikTok’s parent company (who could benefit from a Trump-backed deal to keep Tik Tok running in the US). Building the ballroom (while destroying the East wing in its entirety without Congressional approval) is just another way to buy influence from Trump, the ultimate grifter (check out his lawsuits for not paying folks ). May history remember while Americans are suffering the second longest government shutd...

Trump just wrapped up his Asia tour. While visiting Japan, he declared Toyota would be looking to invest $10 billion in the United States. Amidst his disastrous tariffs ( on Nov. 5 the Supreme Court will determine if he can legally make these tariffs ), it is important to go back to the basics. The Constitution gives Congress the power to regulate foreign commerce, impose tariffs, and collect revenue. It is one thing for Congress to pass legislation allowing Presidential intervention in certain circumstancs, quite another to allow the President to unilaterally decide what impacts the commerce of this country. What next, despite the Constitution, is Trump going to decide to overtake the Judicial branch and make his own decisions and not the courts? The Supreme Court better watch out, if they don't draw clear lines they are next. One way or another, he will unilaterally attempt to decide cases himself (Hasn't he already? Pardoning and commuting the sentences of violent Janua...
