I think he believes if there is some violence by the extreme right, a lot of the folks who are following along (i.e. the Fatties of the world who are one issue voters) will be so disgusted that they start realizing how fucked up Trump and his supporters really are.  At least that is what I think he meant.

Good. Let them get violent. 

Because it'll come up... When political violence becomes more normal and regular, can we talk about it in DT? Since terrorism is normally considered a "current event" and all that. Likewise as well when chuckleheads try to #bothsides things with feckless comparisons ala @clapclapclap, I think it may soon be time for an updated official policy that's clearly stated. 

At least, it'll give y'all some cover if the conservatives ever repeal section 230 so they can attack messages boards and social media for their moderation action

I tend to think of him as a pale reflection of Henry VIII (in Trump's mind of course), except Henry's Navy was far far superior to Trump Boats.

I do enjoy the commercial with the lady in the shower... in bra and panties... shaving her panty line.

Here's the thing. Maybe turning a small portion of your base into angry, violent or crying bitches is good for fundraising. Maybe it's not sustainable. But Newton's Third Law of Motion is a real thing and when it comes to outright support for fascism the opposite reaction seems like a strong negative hit to the GQP's need to win elections. They have over-reached. They got their asses kicked in a Kansas abortion vote and again last night in 2 special elections. If you, however, "got it" I'm sure you'd have explained it.

“She’s racist!”

Quote

 

“In New York City tonight. Seeing racist N.Y.S. Attorney General tomorrow, for a continuation of the greatest Witch Hunt in U.S. history!” Trump wrote beforehand on Truth Social, invoking his oft-repeated claims about James, who is Black, and the investigation.

“My great company, and myself, are being attacked from all sides,”Trump wrote beforehand on Truth Social, the social media platform he founded. “Banana Republic!”

You seem to think things like 'facts' and 'truth' matter at all. They don't. You need to recognize that we live in a post-truth world. What that means is there is no shared reality.

The idea that a court of law would present facts and that the evidence would be so damning that it would convince the right to see the truth assumes that there is a notion of 'truth'. There isn't, we've moved past that quaint idea.

I know there’s a photo album thread somewhere, but beyond the disgusting actions it took for Trump to be able to take this photo that day…him holding the Bible in a staged, awkward way with a scowl on his face really seems to sum up his exploitative personality in general.  
 

Now contrast that with this Souza photo, taken off the cuff in the Oval Office. 

 

When I think of who I want leading my country, I value character and accessibility…not tear gassing protestors to pave the way to a church.

I said the opposite of what you ascribe. What I said was, the extreme-right's fascist eco-system does not seem like the recipe you want when it comes to winning elections. They've walled off their supporters from reality and they're making lots of money off the dumbfucks, but winning some elections they used to be able to count on is going to be a problem. (There's also the problems they're going to have when they continue to lose national popular votes by many millions but that's a different story).

Didn’t answer a single question and invoked the fifth? How is that not bad faith?

For example, depositions have tons of boring questions like “what’s your business address- what’s your role at the company” Answering those questions in no way incriminates him as to anything. Ballsy- especially after the contempt order in that case. I’d move for sanctions and a new deposition

Shit even Mark Fuhrman answered a question when he was recalled. I mean the question was “is it your intention to assert your fifth amendment privilege with regards to any question I may ask you?” But still, he answered it.

So?

How much harm to my country am I to accept in order to avoid whatever consequences there are in creating martyrs?

How close do we allow Ashli Babbitt to get to the vice president? What if lethal force had been the only way to stop the Proud Boys raiding the Capitol?

If there is violence commited by Trumpists, I'm not the least concerned by the political/PR implications of the police or Army turning them into red mush martyrs.

I don't prefer the use of violence, but when it's called for, I'm not shy about thorough application of it.

I'm digging all of this.  While Trump is a veteran of civil cases, many or most of which he initiated, I'm relatively certain he's never been under the gun like this before.  His insecurity and ego have to be absolutely wilding out about now.

I actually get it.  It makes sense if you want to ignore reality.  They can make up anything in their brains that will exonerate him because he is their cult leader.  Anything he does that would normally be seen as "wrong" or "guilty" or whatever can be explained away because IT'S ALL A CONSPIRACY AGAINST HIM!

They had to make room for the giant pool table in the middle of the furniture which disallows both comfortable conversation and playing pool because of similarly tight space.

I'm assuming off screen a tiger sleeps in an undersized cage beneath an enormous gold-framed painting of newly arrived Africans in chains being auctioned off to pasty white men in expensive clothes.
