I am of the opinion that the pee tapes are not real. But, the Russian disinformation machine is doing its best to spread the rumor that they are.
What better way to feed into one man’s paranoid delusions than to manufacture a scenario that he knows is fake? That just makes him double down on being defiant, and not trusting anyone.
Trump, without using Reyes’ name, called her “a crazed lunatic whose courthouse tapes will reveal, may be insane?”
Ok, so Trump’s brain may be pudding, but one thing I can guarantee is that the thing about “tapes” didn’t come out of nowhere. He’s simply not creative enough to make shit up like that. Someone must have told him they feel there is something actionable in the court transcripts. In a few weeks we’re going to see Republicans complaining about something in the transcript that they can use as a bullshit technical point to blow the whole ruling up.
Remember when he went on and on about Fani Willis’s “boyfriend”, and we all thought he was nuts, then they used it to scuttle that investigation?
A key part of Trumpism is taking advantage of the fact that he is allowed to lie and cheat with impunity, while even an appearance of anything untoward by people working against him is routinely used to Trump’s advantage.
Haha, I’ve seen this shit from Nate before

What will that matter, if a President can ignore the law and do whatever he wants? The President’s power (when exercising his core Constitutional duties) is only limited by his imagination. The SCOTUS said so!
Law School Graduate says it’s unknown if she’ll ever get to practice law…
Masterson added “Then she turned me into a newt! But I got better…”
Cool! We just need 16 more Republican Senators and then we can impeach him. But if we can’t get that, then these protests have no practical effect.
He’s just upset she didn’t give him a cut
If Vance was plotting this, the 25th is not the way to go. He would need to get half the Cabinet on board, and then when Trump inevitably challenges it it would take 2/3 vote in both houses to toss Trump out.
It would be much better if Vance simply built up support for an impeachment vote. Trump is doing a ton of things that would have gotten anyone else booted by now. And then all that’s needed of a simple majority in the House with no Cabinet input. Still 2/3 of the Senate, but that might end up being only about 15 Republicans after the elections.
I’m sure the feeling is mutual, and Zelenskyy thinks America should get a new President…
Didn’t FIFA already do this?
Isn’t this the sort of thing that should be done in a court? He’s acting like he never has to worry about ever leaving office and having a “committee of inquiry” set up to look into all his stuff
Are we talking about Gavin Newsom’s ex-wife? Or Donald Trump Jr’s ex-girlfriend?
Trump has done this before. I wouldn’t be surprised if Republican politicians buy a burner phone just to give the number to Trump, so that if Trump blabs it like this it doesn’t swamp the numbers they actually use to get shit done
Kaleb, @ys0ser10us on TikTok, talked about the issue in a video that also made waves on the platform. “How is Gen-Z supposed to climb the corporate ladder if Boomers and Millennials won’t retire?” he asked.
Gen-X being ignored again, just the way we like it. We were the last feral generation, whose moms kicked us out of the house on most Summer mornings and expected us to entertain ourselves until dinnertime.
Why are we pretending that Kalshi matters? Unless there are insiders betting, which has its own separate problems
The common US voter just has to rely on their common sense and critical thinking skills…
Uh oh
I think the issue the last times was that Democrats took Omar’s advice too closely – “If you come at the King, you’d best not miss”, so they tried to focus their efforts on particular things they thought they could build a compelling story about: the Ukraine/Russia stuff in the first impeachment, and Jan 6 in the second. They didn’t fathom how Republicans would just ignore it all.
I used to be in the camp that if given a House majority, Democrats shouldn’t go there again. But I’ve changed my mind. They should definitely go there but this time put it all in. Every single thing that we all shook our heads and said “They wouldn’t have let anyone else getaway with it”. Send over 150 counts individually cited, with receipts.
If nothing else, if Republicans are in charge and summarily dismiss it, all the crazy shit they let him get away with will be on the record. And, if somehow Democrats gain control of the Senate, too, I’m sure Chuck (or whoever else is running things) will have no problem forcing a vote on each charge individually. Call it "Infrastructure Month " in the Senate…
Well yeah, as Trump’s mind dissolves he will start forgetting anything that happened in the past 40 years or so. But he remembers porn on Betamax, at least.
