Thread 4: Donald Trump Did Not Invent Trumpism

It was Fox. Fox created a Maga Nation (without that name) and promised their maga god Messiah would come some day. In 2015 when Trump came down that escallator, FOX proclaimed Trump as their dude

Trump didn't even know the lyrics

The Ballad of Larry, Moe & Curly

The Three Trump Attorneys

Let's talk about Michael Cohen, Rudy Giuliani & Chris Christie

Michael Cohen served as Trump's personal attorney for about a decade PRIOR to Trump coming to the White House

And whatever bad image you have of attorneys, to call Michael Cohen a lawyer, is unfair to attorneys. He acted like the worst thug, a despicable monster of a human being

Michael Cohen's 'method' was to bully and to threaten to sue and then to sue. And then to behave in all sorts of unethical ways. He acted ALWAYS like a monster.

It tells us enough, that Michael Cohen was BLOCKED from joining Trump in White House, as BEING TOO TOXIC

Even so, for first 15 months, Trump would use Michael Cohen (worked for 'free' ie paid by Trump organization, not Trump personally) - in GOVERNMENT matters. Trump would call Michael Cohen on the speaker phone - to JOIN the discussions (knowing Cohen would RECORD that discussion)

Michael Cohen's lawyer's office was raided by FBI in April of 2018. That RAID destroyed Trump's freedom, because the FBI got all the evidence it ever wanted, to put Trump away for LIFE. They have been patiently waiting for Trump to become Citizen Trump - to process those crimes

Rudy Insurance Thread 1/

America's Vampire, the notorious serial butt-dialer and former attorney, Rudy Colludy once threatened the sitting US President with his 'insurance' files. Giuliani clearly thought Trump fears his evidence. Let's explore this 'tremendous' legal gambit

Rudy Insurance Thread 2/

Yesterday, Friday the retired judge who was acting as 'Special Master' finished reviewing files that FBI took from Giuliani raiding his office last April. Near 28,000 files, text messages, emails, pics, videos & sound files were handed to Fed prosecutors

Rudy Insurance Thread 3/

Like when same Special Master finished reviewing the files FBI took from raid of Trump attorney Michael Cohen's office, we can now expect Rudy Giuliani arrest is imminent

We know he'd committed a slew of crimes, he's even been confessing to many of them

Rudy Insurance Thread 4/

Can Rudy escape prison by bargaining with his notorious 'insurance' file? Ah... that is where this gets interesting

A normal criminal could well perhaps manage to do that. Negotiate a deal, and use the evidence in that bargaining. But not Giuliani

Rudy Insurance Thread 5/

The NORMAL criminal negotiates with prosecutors, telling them in a 'proffer' session what kinds of crimes the perp can confess to, & specifically, who else they can implicate as partners in that crime. It only really works if they can give someone 'big'

Many do not know what crime is 'Sanctions Busting' (Weisselberg 3, Giuliani 3) because is so rare. I believe only one conviction of it in USA in past century

It is a crime against the United States of America

It is INCREDIBLY serious, federal life remaining. Life without parole

Sanctions are imposed by USA against a foreign government. Because USA is world financial center, that is VERY damaging to foreign payments. Because US dollar is most used international payment currency, it limits any other country's financial activity enormously

Current Iranian sanctions were imposed by USA in 1987 (Reagan) when Iran supported terrorism against shipping. Were expanded in 1995 (Clinton) & in 2006 (W Bush). Trump has circumvented these with Turkish bank, and Trump properties in USA It is money laundering crime for a NATION

When Putin invaded Ukraine in 2014 and annexed Crimea, Obama slapped biggest sanctions in US history against Russia. Trump then worked with Putin to circumvent these, partly with Putin's bank with offices conveniently in Trump Tower.

Sanctions busting is a financial activity where a US citizen helps a sanctioned country bypass the sanctions. So it is a crime against the Unted States of America

Legally, it is not 'treason' but is a 'treasonous' crime, somewhat similar. Assisting America's enemies illegally

Sept Update Path 4 Roger Stone 1/

Ukraine war interrupted my regular updates to my 'Paths' but it is high time to do update to this, 4th Path to take Trump to prison for life (out of 6 Paths). I call this Roger Stone path, but you know this as a happy Republican picnick of Jan 6

Sept Update Roger Stone Path 2/

Donald Trump faces 6 paths that EACH take him to prison for life

1. Weisselberg (NY taxes)
2. Giuliani (Ukraine)
3. Matt Gaetz (selling Presidential pardons)
4. Roger Stone (Jan 6th)
5. Tom Barrack (UAE & Qatar)
6. Mark Meadows (Espionage-A-Lago)

Sept Update Roger Stone Path 3/

Note, in my Trump path 3 to prison for life, Matt Gaetz (selling Presidential Pardons) a key criminal is Roger Stone

This 4th path to take Trump to prison for life I call 'Roger Stone' is SEPARATE. This is about January 6th and includes ALL Jan 6

Sept Update Roger Stone Path 4/

Jan 6th insurrection was a terrorist attack on America & an attempted coup d'etat. It was to overturn the election, deny vote of 81 million Americans & have Trump declared King Donald the Worst. Is the most evil plot by a US President against USA

Sept Update Roger Stone Path 5/

I was here with you when Jan 6th terrorist attack, insurrection (legally: sedition) & attempted coup d'etat happened on Jan 6. We tracked the upcoming event from before, and knew what they were up to. We have tracked this investigation since on TW

Here’s the thing, Trump & his lawyers aren’t really trying to overturn the results of the election. They know that they don’t have a path to victory. These lawsuits were all supposed to fail, all of the fillings were intentionally sloppy and unsustainable, the “proof” is garbage

Guilani’s entire shtick, along with Powell’s utterly fabricated explanations are only meant to distract. The only people convinced by their so called evidence are Trump cultists who want to be fooled. They’re so ignorant that they have no idea just how ignorant they actually are.

The court cases have all failed because they were meant to fail. Because Trump’s people all know their evidence was fabricated and all the witnesses far from credible. Given the sheer level of incompetence Trump’s legal team has shown so far, their failures are intentional.

So, instead of trying to actually overturn the results of the general election, what are these people up to? The answer is two-fold: One. The attempts, rhetoric and ultimate failures are meant to shed doubt on the overall electoral process and to cast doubt on the legitimacy...

Of a Biden/Harris presidential term. Trump and his lawyers have used racially charged accusations to discredit the legitimacy of Black voters. Given that Trump earned votes in the same process that they’re trying to discredit, it’s systematic racism, hypocrisy and cynicism...

NEW: Before he left office, Trump filed his final financial disclosures with @OfficeGovEthics. I’ve had a read through them. The income he is claiming in respect of his Scottish resorts is entirely divorced from the reality set out in black in white in his UK accounts. Thread 👇

Firstly, Trump lists his income from ‘golf related revenue’ at Turnberry as $9.8m. Which is interesting, given the latest UK accounts for Turnberry's parent company registered losses of £2.3m ($3.1m) for the 12 months to 31 Dec 2019.

Even the turnover in the UK accounts - listed as £19.6m ($26.8m) is a country mile off that income figure listed in Trump's OGE filings. Comparing like for like, even accounting for that weird 'golf related revenue' descriptor, it's not even close.

If you drill down in more detail, and subtract the administrative expenses at Turnberry's parent firm from its turnover in order to get closer to whatever that 'income' figure entails, the number is still £12.5m ($17.2m).

And if you go deeper, and account for the gains the company made in foreign exchanges, and deduct depreciation and amortisation costs, the figure is £9.9m ($13.6m). Still a way off the OGE number.
