Trump (@realDonaldTrump) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1342830505163706369?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 26, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\nTrump is attacking the Supreme Court on which three of his appointees sit, along with three other conservative justices. But because they they had the audacity to rule according to the law, rather than his whims, they are deemed <em>&#8220;totally incompetent and weak.&#8221;<\/em> And if Trump has <em>&#8220;absolute proof&#8221;<\/em> of election fraud, why hasn&#8217;t he presented it in any of the nearly sixty cases he has already lost?<\/p>\n<p><strong>TWEET #2: The Executive Branch<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The \u201cJustice\u201d Department and the FBI have done nothing about the 2020 Presidential Election Voter Fraud, the biggest SCAM in our nation\u2019s history, despite overwhelming evidence. They should be ashamed. History will remember. Never give up. See everyone in D.C. on January 6th.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1342821189077622792?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 26, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\nHere Trump is attacking his own cabinet and administration officials. It&#8217;s false to say that none of them have done anything. They actually did investigate Trump&#8217;s bizarre election fraud claims &#8211; the few he bothered to submit &#8211; and found them all meritless. But Trump is right that <em>&#8220;history will remember.&#8217;<\/em> Just not what he thinks will be remembered.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TWEET #3: The Legislative Branch<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">If a Democrat Presidential Candidate had an Election Rigged &amp; Stolen, with proof of such acts at a level never seen before, the Democrat Senators would consider it an act of war, and fight to the death. Mitch &amp; the Republicans do NOTHING, just want to let it pass. NO FIGHT!<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1342817496924086278?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 26, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\nFirst of all, a Democratic candidate did have an election that was stolen. Hillary Clinton&#8217;s election was documented to have been marred by interference from Russia with the knowledge and complicity of the Trump campaign. We could also throw in Al Gore&#8217;s election where the Supreme Court halted recounts that would prove errors that resulted in Florida handing the race to George Bush.<\/p>\n<p>More to the point, Trump is attacking his fellow Republicans in the Senate for not bending to his demands to unconstitutionally overturn the election results and the will of the people. But even more troubling is that Trump is raising the specter of violence with his apparent approval of a <em>&#8220;fight to the death&#8221;<\/em> in order to secure his bid to become president-for-life.<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time that Trump has tested a violent solution to his electoral humiliation. Earlier this month Trump spoke about a move to <em>&#8220;<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=47861\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">escalate dramatically<\/a><\/strong>&#8220;<\/em> the opposition to Joe Biden&#8217;s victory and inauguration. It&#8217;s a theme he&#8217;s adopting more frequently as his time is running out.<\/p>\n<p>For good measure, Trump also tweeted a ludicrous batch of nonsense about how states are managing the coronavirus pandemic. Since his negligence and incompetence have resulted in making everything worse, he&#8217;s attacking the states with lies to shift the blame to others:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The lockdowns in Democrat run states are absolutely ruining the lives of so many people &#8211; Far more than the damage that would be caused by the China Virus. Cases in California have risen despite the lockdown, yet Florida &amp; others are open &amp; doing well. Common sense please!<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1342908782934958081?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 26, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Does Trump really think that lockdowns will result in <em>&#8220;Far more than the damage that would be caused by the [Trump] Virus&#8221;<\/em>? That would mean the lockdowns would have killed more than the 330,000 Americans who have already died due to COVID-19. And his assertion that cases in California have risen since the lockdown is a flagrant lie. The new restrictions were imposed <em>because<\/em> of the rise in cases, hospitalizations and deaths. Furthermore, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/health-shots\/2020\/09\/01\/816707182\/map-tracking-the-spread-of-the-coronavirus-in-the-u-s\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Florida is doing much worse than California<\/a><\/strong> per capita. California just recorded about 61 deaths per hundred thousand residents. In Florida the number is 98 deaths per hundred thousand.<\/p>\n<p>So as usual, Trump is wrong about literally everything. And his tendency toward hostility and violence is the sort of thing that inspires the domestic terrorists that idolize Trump (i.e. the KKK, Proud Boys, etc.). He is inflaming these extremists deliberately in a futile, though dangerous, quest for power. And his purposefully reckless and irresponsible behavior is something that history will remember as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color:blue;\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> Twitter recently suspended the News Corpse account after 11 years without giving a reason.
