Re: All Things Trump: the story continues...
Trump wishes he'd brought in active duty military to stomp on Black Lives Matter protests. Likely that would have violated the US Constitution and the Posse Comitatus Act. Somewhat ironic, given the origins of that law.
'Trump Says His Only Regret as President Was Not Deploying the US Military to Attack Black Lives Matter Protestors'
'Trump Says His Only Regret as President Was Not Deploying the US Military to Attack Black Lives Matter Protestors'
Donald Trump, the twice-impeached, one-term Republican president who lost the popular vote twice and the Electoral College once says he has but a single regret for his time as Commander in Chief: not deploying the U.S. Military to attack Black Lives Matter protestors during the summer of 2020 – an act that at the very least would have been met with massive resistance nationwide and some say would have violated the Constitution.
In a lengthy excerpt published at Vanity Fair from their new book, “I Alone Can Fix It,” Carol Leonnig and Philip Rucker focus on their hours-long interview with the former president at Mar-a-Lago, just 70 days after Joe Biden was sworn in as president.
...
“Over the years,” Leonnig and Rucker write, “Trump rarely has expressed misgivings. But he regrets his response to protests last summer in Minneapolis, Portland, Seattle, and other cities. ‘I think if I had it to do again, I would have brought in the military immediately,’ he said.”
As it is, Amnesty International in August of 2020 says it “Recorded 125 Separate Incidents of Police Violence Against Protesters, Medics, Journalists and Legal Observers in 40 States and D.C. During May and June Protests.”
Trump regrets not violating the civil rights of protestors even more.
In fact, as Georgetown law professor Rosa Brooks wrote in The Washington Post in June of last year, “Past presidents used the Insurrection Act to protect civil rights — not to send troops to silence dissent.”

Good job making him look dignified and presidential though. Shame that the highly skilled artist picked the wrong team.

Re: All Things Trump: the story continues...
The most obvious target Trump has in 2022 is Cheney. She is the sole congresswoman from Wyoming. So it is a state wide referendum. That election and the vote on Boebert in 2022 will be the signals of where we are going. If Trump loses with his candidates in 2022, then we can dismiss from any real influence in 2024. He will draw some crowds in a few places still, both 2022 and 2014. I think he will not run in 2024. His troubles are mounting and getting costly.

July 22 (Reuters) - One of the Pennsylvania counties targeted in a Republican lawmaker's "forensic investigation" into the 2020 election has beefed up security around its courthouse following threatening posts on social media, one of its commissioners told Reuters.
The incendiary Facebook posts appeared targeted at members of Tioga County's all-Republican board of commissioners after they decided not to comply with the lawmaker's request to turn over their voting machines, Commissioner Erick Coolidge said.
One individual, in an apparent reference to the county's three commissioners, called them traitors and said there were "plenty of trees" in a nearby gorge to "hang ropes from," according to a post viewed by Reuters on a Facebook page.

Get a boring, neutral electoral commission like Oz, and don't let politicians anywhere near it...

Trump has not spent a penny on election fraudits. All the money he raised since election day went to "travel" and "expenses" and got stashed away.

No BBQ for RINOs:
The smell of BBQ food filled Krause Park in Muskegon Saturday afternoon, but none of the food was for 'RINOs,' according to signs posted at the local Republican party event," Fox 17 reports.
"Those literal signs are among other things showing the former president's continuing influence on local Republicans, who at the Muskegon County GOP BBQ bash Saturday echoed concerns that the 2020 election was in some way 'stolen' from Trump, despite a Republican state senate report that found no evidence of widespread voter fraud in Michigan," correspondent Aaron Parseghian explained.
