WHY They Want Him To Win June 19, 2024June 18, 2024 But first . . . Glenn Price: “Clarence Thomas’s majority opinion elevates dogma and the dictionary over a commonsense interpretation of the Second Amendment. Originalism? Originally, bump stocks didn’t exist. Watch this video showing how a bump stock works and tell me it is not a machine gun.” Thomas and Alito are embarrassments to the Court and the nation. If Trump wins, they would be induced to step down, replaced by equally partisan right-wingers 30 years younger . . . extending their minority views beyond 2050. (Surely it is a minority view that abortion should be illegal and bump stocks, legal.) And now . . . PUTIN wants Trump to win so he can subjugate Ukraine and then move on to conquer adjacent states. THE KLAN wants Trump to win because they believe America should be a white Christian nation. CARL wants him to win because he believes trans women are “ruining women’s sports.” And because he is rightly distraught over the border crisis – though not so distraught as to favor the bi-partisan bill Trump killed that would have ENDED the crisis. TRUMP, a convicted felon surrounded by other convicted felons, wants to win so he can be the world’s strongest strongman — like Putin, Orban, and Kim Jong Un, only stronger — and because it’s his only way to beat the raps for attempting to overturn the election and for lying to the FBI about documents he claimed not to have and then took pains to conceal. TENS OF MILLIONS OF OTHERS want him to win because they have been misled into believing the country is going to hell when, in fact, unemployment is low; the stock market, at record highs; infrastructure, at long last being revitalized; manufacturing jobs, coming home; violent crime, down (murder, “plunging”); and the border in crisis — this bears repeating — only because Trump killed the deal to fix it. And inflation? His followers have been misled into believing that the sharp two-year spike in the cost of living was Biden’s fault, when it was largely the result of COVID’s supply-chain disruptions. Prices and interest rates are painfully high; but no longer rising as fast as wages. And even as Biden continues to make progress on inflation, Trump has vowed to impose huge tariffs, making imported goods more expensive; and to deport millions of workers, tightening an already tight labor market, driving up wages and prices. “In our nation’s 247-year history, there has never been an individual who is greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump.” — Dick Cheney, Sep. 7, 2023
