Richard, your POV is almost completely inaccurate because you limit your information intake.

Getting the Trump DOJ to approve problematic FISAs months into the Trump Admin seems like a bad way to "prevent the election" of Trump."

 WATCH: Trump explains VIRAL ramp descent, water sipping moments during Tulsa rally

During a rally in Tulsa, OK, President Trump explained his viral moments during his speech at West Point involving descending a ramp and sipping water from a glass.

If the arguments by Trump's lawyers to a three judge DC appeals court panel on Tuesday were successful and subsequently confirmed by a SCOTUS majority, explain what prudent options President Biden would have, other than to order the assasssination of his political rival, and resign the presidency under a pardon protection by his successor, Kamala Harris, as Nixon did?

Would it not then be incumbent on Harris to devote her presidency, using the new found Trump Court immunity decision to taking steps necessary in preventing anyone other than a Democrat from succeeding her as POTUS?

What is with the endless random links?  Try to have a discussion.  This is simple.  Is Biden exhibiting signs of dementia or not?  Has the Biden administration attempted to imprison political opponents, raid their homes, and made efforts to keep them off the ballot?  Are those actions consistent with democracy or a totalitarian state?

I think the problem is they sort of HAVE to believe him, because there are only two plausible explanations for why this guy has been hit with dozens of indictments and adverse civil judgments. One is it’s all a big conspiracy. The other is that he’s a massive fraud & criminal.

The amazing thing isn't that Trump says false things like this--in this case, that Biden is behind every legal case, civil and criminal, filed against him, and it's all politics.  That's who he is. The amazing part is that so many Americans believe him.

Can't you have a conversation without linking a thousand random webpages?  Do you think Biden is exhibiting symptoms of dementia?   Do you think it sets a good precedent for the incoming party to charge the outgoing president for poltiical crimes?   Did Trump prosecute any of his political opponents, raid their homes in predawn raids. and censor speech?  All common acts of dictators.

My post was in simple English and does not contain a rambling pasting of website links to make some indecipherable point.  What is with posting endless links instead of having a normal conversation?   It's like conversing with an AI machine that is glitching.   Among these ramblings, you have posted a link about Trump having a town hall after Melania's mother died.  What point are you making?  That Trump is heartless.  LOL.  How do you or anyone know what Trump is doing in his private family affairs?  Trump is running for president.  Trump has his own plane.  He can be at a town hall and a couple of hours later be anywhere in the world.  Maybe do some more research:

 "Mr Trump proposes to spend January 17 and 18 traveling to and attending the funeral, which the family has scheduled for January 18, 2024 in Florida."

If you are concerned with politicians being heartless, how about Old Joe denying the existence of his own granddaughter?  Putting up Christmas stocking for all his grandkids and even the dog but not one for her.  Why?  Because she is a political liability to him as Dirty Hunter's love child.  So she doesn't matter.   That is cold blooded.  Of course, in his state of advanced dementia, he probably doesn't remember he has any grandchildren. 

I'll try to simplify.  Biden - does he have dementia or not?   Trump - did he have his justice department prosecute political opponents and make efforts to keep them off the ballot like Putin or some third world dictator?  Or was that Old Joe?  No links are necessary.

You're endorsing a pro-Putin, dictator wannabe who proudly touts the endorsement of a mafia executioner, "Sammy the Bull," who admitted to murdering 19 people.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sammy_Gravano

You either totally missed that Trump did not attend the first civil trial in the E. Jean Carroll litigation and is lying now to the court to manipulate you and the rest of his cult into thinking the civil trial judge Trump is attacking is being unfair to him, denying Trump relief from an obligation to be present at this trial, or you are attempting to misinform readers. Cult deprogrammer Ted Patrick would not be able to recover you!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Patrick

How many ways can you confirm you fully buy into Trump's invented, complete exemption from any accountability for anything because he is a victim of a vast conspiracy to portray him as the personality of an anti Ameican federal republic, cult of personality?

Compared to Trump, Biden exhibits little to no cognitive age impairment. Biden has no influence on Trump's invented bull poop claim of political prosecution in the state of Georgia indictment that resulted from consensus of two grand juries drawn from members of the public, likewise in the NY County, NY grand jury indictment.

You're parroting of the Trump fairy tale of two politically motivated federal indictments is ridiculous, as well. Atty General Garland appointed Trump appointee Robert Hur to investigate Biden himself and Trump appointee David Weiss to prosecute Biden's son, Hunter. Your arguments are incoherent.

A magnificent and historic landslide victory last night for Trump.  The first of fifty.   Meanwhile Old Joe hit even new lows for him in the recent polls.  State sponsored MSNBC refused to even carry all of Trump's magnificent victory speech.  They are running scared.  Nothing can stop him.  They have tried intimidation, misuse of the legal process, censorship, and control of the media.  And his poll numbers go further up with each passing day.
