2024 US Presidential Election

Hopefully, the entire party will be so wrought with grief, they commit mass suicide.

I guess it is curious that Jared and Ivanka don't pay the bond. They could give him some of the money from the $2 billion they got from the Saudis. I guess they think he is not worth it.

[The Grand Nudger]

They're also broke.  I doubt they'd bail him out if they could...but, at the end of the day, they couldn't even if they wanted to.  Javanka didn't go hat in hand to Mo bin Sawin because they were flush....and Mo bin Sawin didn't exactly give that money to javanka, either.

No one trusts any of these people with anything.

In a world where money is sadly valued to elect a leader, perhaps it is a benefit in this case to ensure Trump cannot be reelected.

Yeah, the financials aren’t looking good at the moment. I read that Biden has $153 million cash-on-hand (more than any Democratic presidential candidate ever at this point), Trump has $36 million.

Mind, it’s early days yet.

I would reckon most of that $36m is already gone up in smoke. Remember his 2016 election fundraising was run like it was the early days of the Iraqi "reconstruction" efforts all over again. Pallets of money were literally walking out the building.

The difference this time is that we know where the pallets are going.

Further to above:

Former President Trump is lagging far behind President Biden in fundraising, potentially putting him at a significant disadvantage as the general election race kicks into gear.

Trump saw an uptick in his February fundraising compared to January, but his monthly haul, as well as his cash on hand entering March, was far surpassed by the Biden operation.

Election filings made public Wednesday showed Trump’s 2024 campaign brought in $10.9 million last month, while his joint fundraising committee raised nearly $11 million. His operation overall had about $42 million in cash on hand entering March.

Those figures lagged far behind Biden’s campaign operation, which raised roughly $53 million in February, giving it $155 million in cash on hand entering March.

So, I wish to say something. You know about Taylor Swift, right? That celebrity? Not only is she pro-Biden, but she is against the likes of Trump and his supporters and has been fighting to prevent the likes of them to not control the USA. Because of this, though, many people who are MAGAts, support Trump, or are religious like those evangelists have wanted to go after her and target her in a not so good way, and even FOX News called her "public enemy number one" for what she has been doing, which is BS, but still...

I am sure some of those people would like to kill her, but I have to ask; what would they achieve that would be good by doing so and isn't based on self-centered reasons that will only satisfy themselves and not everyone else and will just make them look bad, if they care or not? I mean, what good can come out of killing anyone like Taylor Swift? I mean, people like her are doing a lot for this country and are fighting oppression, like many have before in this country. In fact, those who were killed for fighting for what they believe in ended up leaving their mark in history, and have been remembered for their actions.

Take Martin Luther King Jr., for example. He did a lot as a civil rights activists, and fought for the many African Americans who were being oppressed, in a peaceful way. In fact, even after he was assassinated, he is still celebrated, has a day that honors him, and is seen as a historical, big time figure in the United States, while those like the person who killed Martian Luther King Jr. was not as well remembered, seen as a full time bad guy and, if I recall correctly, ended up being punished. Either way, he did not achieve much by killing Martian Luther King Jr.

My point is that killing people who have done a lot of work for things like this country such as Taylor Swift and Martian Luther King Jr. are more remembered for their actions compared to those who kill or come after them. In fact, those MAGAts and evangelists have not done anything meaningful or good for this country outside of the members of the very kind they are part of that they try to please. Trump has not been remembered for being a good president, at all. In fact, so far, he has been seen as more of a bad guy, in spite of his supporters. Bad is not looked well upon like how good has been well looked upon, and I doubt these guys know what good is, or know what it is anymore. Either way, they are not going to do any beneficial for themselves, the other members of the groups they are part of, or even the country as a whole, and no, doing things for one's self interests like those of the MAGAts and evangelists won't do much for the country. They may delay the inevitable in some way, but they will be seen as bad guys for killing people who have done more good and done more work for this country, like Taylor and Martian. In fact, they are hypocritical because they are only breaking the law if they try to kill such people, which, may I add, are laws made long ago by mostly Christians, if I recall correctly. Sure, the United States has supposed to have a separation between church and state, but the United States did not always exist, and their laws are still based on those religious people made long ago, even when the United States was known as the 13 colonies, or when the 13 colonies had begun to be formed by people who came from Europe back then, so those who would try to kill people like Martian or Taylor are going against what their ancestors made as rules long ago, even if there was still corruption and discrimination back then, but religion is heavily flawed, anyway, and those religious people like Christians try to make exceptions, only to look hypocritical.

But yes, those people like the MAGAt and evangelists, and maybe some others, whether they care or not, won't change the fact that they will be bad guys and will not be remembered much, or at all compared to those who do political work or fight for the good of this country. In fact, they most likely have done nothing good themselves, the ones who want to kill the good guys, and chances are, killing someone who has done much more and fights for good is not going to make you a good guy, especially if the killer or would-be killer has not done anything like the ones they target and the only thing they have done is just killed a good person or one fighting for good like Martian Luther King Jr. or Taylor Swift.

In fact, it will just make things worse for themselves and people like them, and anything that may come out of it that is "good" for them will be short-lived (if it lives at all), be good for the bad guys only and won't change the fact that they are bad guys. I mean, two wrongs don't make a right, they always say.

That's what I have to say about this.
