Trump = Winning

And then...

New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman on Friday said Trump Organization employees were secretly celebrating Donald Trump’s indictment amid an investigation into hush money paid to a porn actor.

“They were texting me, and there is a long trail of people who feel burned, in one way or another, by Donald Trump,” Haberman said on CNN, referring to workers at the former president’s company.

“We certainly saw that in the White House. This was a pattern that existed for decades in The Trump Organization,” she continued. “And the number of people I heard from yesterday who worked for his company who were really happy — one person texted with the words, ‘Wonderful news.’”

Haberman added, “That really sort of tells you something about where these folks’ heads are.”

Stormy Daniels must pay $122,000 in Trump legal bills

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Stormy Daniels must pay nearly $122,000 of Donald Trump’s legal fees that were racked up in connection with the porn actor’s failed defamation lawsuit, an appeals court ruled Tuesday.

The decision in California came at about the same time that that Trump became the only ex-president to be charged with a crime. Trump pleaded not guilty in a New York City courtroom to a 34-count felony indictment accusing him falsifying business records in a scheme to hush up allegations of extramarital affairs with Daniels and Playboy model Karen McDougal that broke during his first White House run.

Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, alleges she had an affair with Trump in 2006 and was paid $130,000 as part of a nondisclosure agreement days before the 2016 presidential election.

She sued him for defamation after he dismissed her claims of being threatened to keep quiet about the tryst as a “total con job.” A judge threw out the case in 2018.

On Tuesday, a commissioner for the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Trump’s attorneys “reasonably spent” more than 183 hours on an appeal of the case but denied a request for another $5,150 in other fees because it wasn’t itemized.

In all, Daniels has been ordered to pay more than $600,000 in Trump’s legal fees, tweeted Harmeet Dillon, one of his attorneys in the case.

That includes some $300,000 in attorney’s fees that Daniels previously was ordered to pay.

After a federal appeals court upheld that award last year, Daniels stated: “I will go to jail before I pay a penny.”

Messages seeking comment from her attorney, Oklahoma lawyer Clark Brewster, weren’t immediately returned after hours Tuesday.

#Winning.   

Someone gets it.  It's what the Trumpturds on here have been told over and over by myself and others, but can't pull their heads out of the orange ass long enough to listen. 

It's ok though.  We really know that Barr is the bad guy here.  Send Trumpy  more money, it will help.

Barr slams Trump as weak candidate, makes bold prediction for 2024 election

Former Attorney General Bill Barr slammed former President Donald Trump as "the weakest of the Republican candidates," predicting that Trump will ultimately lose to President Joe Biden in the 2024 presidential election.

"I think ultimately the savvy Democratic strategists know [the Manhattan District Attorney's Office probe] is going to help Trump, and they want him to be the nominee because he is the weakest of the Republican candidates, the most likely to lose again to Biden," Barr said on ABC's "This Week" on Sunday.

Barr's comments came the week after Trump pleaded not guilty in a New York City courtroom to 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree. The former president and leading Republican presidential candidate for 2024 was indicted on March 30 as part of the Manhattan DA's years-long investigation into hush-money payments made during the 2016 election.

"I don't think anything's going to happen before a nomination is made and even perhaps until the election, the 2024 election," Barr said when asked about the likelihood of Trump being convicted and sent to prison. "This stuff is going to drag out through '24, and it's going to stymie and disrupt the whole Republican primary process."

"I also think, though, as far as the general election is concerned, it will gravely weaken Trump," Barr said. "He's already, I think, a weak candidate that would lose, but I think this sort of assures it."

Barr also said he would be most concerned about the Mar-a-Lago document case, saying Trump has "dug himself into a hole" given his "reckless and self-destructive behavior."

"In many respects, he's his own worst enemy," Barr said.

The #winning just never seems to stop.  Trumpy promised "so much winning that you will be sick of it".   And here we are!   

His attorney is confident the case will be dismissed.......   how many times have we heard that one before?   

The funny thing is that Trumpy and his team got all upset because the courts rejected an offer of his DNA to match against what was found on her clothes.  He only had YEARS to do so.  He could have submitted his DNA, won his case, sued her to the moon and back and been done with it by this time.  Unless he had something to hide.

No shield for Trump in rape accuser's case as court declines to rule

A Washington, D.C., appeals court on Thursday declined to shield Donald Trump from the first of two civil defamation lawsuits by E. Jean Carroll, a writer who said the former U.S. president raped her nearly three decades ago.

The district's highest local court, the Court of Appeals, said it did not have enough facts to decide whether Trump deserved immunity, after he accused the former Elle magazine columnist in June 2019 of lying about the alleged encounter.

A ruling that Trump was acting as president, and not in his personal capacity, would have immunized him and doomed Carroll's first lawsuit because the government could substitute itself as the defendant, and the government cannot be sued for defamation.

The court sent the case back to the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan, which had last September asked the Washington court for guidance on local law.

Thursday's decision does not affect Carroll's second lawsuit, where an April 25 trial is scheduled in Manhattan federal court.

That case also includes a battery claim under a New York law that lets sexual abuse survivors sue their alleged attackers even if statutes of limitations have run out.

Trump wants to postpone that trial at least until May 23, saying "prejudicial media coverage" of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's recent criminal case against him would leave that case "top of mind" for most prospective jurors.

Mr Trump - at his  rally in Oshkosh Wisconsin in August of 2020:

    “We are going to win four more years, And then after that, we’ll go for another four years because they spied on my campaign. We should get a redo of four years.”

Pretty much sums up his knowledge of politics

Why so worried?

“cherished and massive MAGA vote” lol. Obviously not massive enough to win an election.

Freshly indicted Trump has gone from mocking DeSantis to begging him not to run. SAD!

Remember in 2015 when then-candidate Donald Trump unfairly blasted Republican Sen. John McCain?

“He’s not a war hero,” Trump said. “He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people that weren’t captured.”

Republicans should take a cue from the former president and send him the following message: They like presidential candidates who haven’t been indicted (and throw in lying about losing an election).

Following Trump’s recent New York charges on allegedly falsifying business records in conjunction with a 2016 hush money payout to a porn star, he has been acting extra defensive.

Despite the nonstop news coverage and the drama which Trump thrives on, the publicity doesn’t seem to be rallying Republicans to him like some had predicted.

While Trump is mired in his legal troubles, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is traveling to key states around the country, boasting about what he has accomplished as governor and how Florida could serve as a model for the country. He was in my state of Michigan last week.

For the most part, DeSantis has ignored Trump – and Trump’s incessant attacks against him. It’s driving the former president nuts.

This week, Trump seems to have shifted his messaging about his likely GOP presidential competition. Rather than lobbing lazy name-calling DeSantis’ way, he’s outright pleading for the governor not to run. At least that’s what it sounds like.

“Ron DeSantis is a young man who is not doing well against me in the polls, to put it mildly,” Trump wrote Monday on Truth Social. “I believe that if he decides to run for President, which will only hurt and somewhat divide the Republican Party, he will lose the cherished and massive MAGA vote, and never be able to successfully run for office again. If he remains Governor, which is what Florida voters assumed, it would be a whole different story…JUST SAYIN’ – But who knows?”

Later that day, Trump sent out a news release doubling down on previous accusations that DeSantis should resign as governor if he runs for president.
Trump's looking nervous

Trump’s doing everything he can think of to dissuade DeSantis from getting in the race.

Why? Because Trump obviously realizes DeSantis poses the biggest threat to him. And nothing scares Trump more than the prospect of losing (2020 anyone?).

Several recent polls point to troubles ahead for Trump. One from ABC/Ipsos found Trump's favorability rating at only 25%.

And while Trump still has a fairly consistent lead over DeSantis (who still hasn’t declared his candidacy) in national polls, that advantage appears to be shrinking. In some individual states, DeSantis is leading.

Trump wants you to think he's the victim: Maybe he's just a bad dude
DeSantis doesn't have the baggage

A recent survey from Issues & Insights and the pollster TIPP found that in the past month, Trump has lost support among Republicans and right-leaning independents. He still has a healthy lead among GOP presidential contenders with 47%, but that has dropped from 51%. During the same timeframe, support for DeSantis grew to 23% from 22%.

No other declared or likely GOP candidate is even close at this point. That’s clearly enough to make Trump fret about his fellow Floridian.

With other indictments possible on the horizon for Trump, it’s hard to know how this will all play out with the Republican base.

Regardless of how politicized most of these investigations have been, it seems voters on the right are increasingly ready for a fresh candidate – and one who hasn’t been indicted.
