If that’s how you deal with reality, it explains a lot…

Perhaps you could explain the issue ?

Trump is alleging that the White House leaned on Mark Zuckerberg to suppress a scandal about Hunter Biden (Joe Biden’s son). He is alleging that this means the 2020 election was rigged.

The only problem is, Trump was in the White House in 2020. Anything the Biden White House may or may not have done to take the heat off Hunter took place in 2021 or later and can have had nothing whatsoever to do with the 2020 election.

However, Trump seems to have it fixed in his head that the White House might have been doing things to rig the 2020 election. If so, it was the Trump administration that was doing the rigging. Trump is frequently observed to be accusing other people of doing what he himself has done. This tweet may be rather revealing, and not in the way Trump hoped.

Sorry, I’m having a blonde moment ( misogyny, no doubt Cooper will send the cops round)

What does your “point of information” have to do with that statement from Trump?

Oh OK, thanks. “White House” another mis-step from Trump. I think the Hunter Biden Lap Top issue, it has been pretty much common knowledge that sympathetic Democrats in the FBI/ CIA leant on Facebook and the MSM (not that they needed leaning on) not to run with the Hunter Biden story.

Not really.

Did someone mention Trump and the 2020 election?

Donald Trump hit with fresh criminal indictment in 2020 election case

US prosecutors attempt to tailor charges to reflect Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity

US prosecutors have filed a revised set of charges against Donald Trump over his alleged attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election, thrusting his legal woes back into the spotlight with just over two months to go in the White House race.

The superseding indictment, filed by special counsel Jack Smith in Washington federal court on Tuesday, is an attempt to comply with the Supreme Court decision that recognised broad immunity from criminal prosecution for presidents.

Smith’s move comes weeks after the high court ruled that the case would have to be examined by a federal judge to determine what elements were “official acts” for which Trump could not be charged.

It contains the same four core charges for which Smith charged the former president last year in connection with the aftermath of the 2020 election and the lead-up to the January 6 2021 attack on the US Capitol by a mob of his supporters.

However, the indictment no longer includes certain allegations that Trump instructed his Department of Justice to declare the election results corrupt, or his conversations with DoJ official Jeffrey Clark, whom Trump tried to make attorney-general...

Separately, a New York appeals court is set to hear arguments next month over whether Trump must pay more than $450mn after being found liable for fraud in a civil trial brought by the state’s attorney-general.

Trump visit to Arlington Cemetery sparks alleged altercation with aides

An NPR source said a cemetery official was pushed and verbally accosted as they tried to block campaign aides from photographing.

Arlington National Cemetery officials on Tuesday acknowledged an unspecified “incident” during Donald Trump’s visit on Monday on the third anniversary of the Afghanistan withdrawal, as dueling allegations of misbehavior overshadowed an event to honor American war dead.

An NPR report on Tuesday cited an unidentified source with knowledge of the incident who said Trump campaign staff pushed and verbally attacked a cemetery official who tried to stop them from taking photos and video in an area of the cemetery called Section 60, where many U.S. service members who died in recent conflicts are buried. The cemetery said in a statement that federal law bars photography for political campaign purposes at the site.

But Trump campaign communications director Steven Cheung said that “there was no physical altercation as described,” that the campaign was given permission to bring a photographer, and that it is “prepared to release footage” to defend against “defamatory claims.”

Cheung also claimed, without providing evidence or details, that “an unnamed individual, clearly suffering from a mental health episode, decided to physically block members of President Trump’s team during a very solemn ceremony.”

Responding to an inquiry about an alleged altercation during Trump’s visit, Arlington National Cemetery issued a statement that read: “We can confirm there was an incident, and a report was filed.” The organization did not share more details. It was not immediately clear to whom the report was filed, but the incident occurred on U.S. Army property. Army headquarters and the service’s criminal investigation division did not immediately respond to requests Tuesday night for clarification.

Visitors have long taken graveside photographs in Arlington National Cemetery, including in Section 60. But in a statement released on Tuesday, defense officials drew a distinction between Trump’s actions and those of typical visitors.

“Federal law prohibits political campaign or election-related activities within Army National Military Cemeteries, to include photographers, content creators or any other persons attending for purposes, or in direct support of a partisan political candidate’s campaign,” the cemetery’s statement said. “Arlington National Cemetery reinforced and widely shared this law and its prohibitions with all participants.”

On Tuesday night, the campaign shared a statement from five relatives of slain U.S. service members who said they gave permission for Trump’s official photographer and videographer to join the cemetery visit on Monday and wanted the event to be “respectfully captured.”

The families can’t "give permission" for campaign photos/video at Arlington.

btw, here’s one of those "respectful" photos.

It’s not a question of prosecuting him for lack of respect - using the cemetery for political campaigning is illegal and he ought to be investigated for that.

Trump-commissioned report undercut his claims of dead and double voters

A report commissioned by the former president’s campaign and obtained by The Post did not back up his claims of fraud and did not provide evidence to overturn the 2020 election

Re: Trump’s Troubles

This might be the final nail for Trump.

Or perhaps the next Cable Forum jolly boys' outing. Mick or Pierre can introduce the film. :D

Re: Trump’s Troubles

The problem here, and always has been, is the report in Hugh's post plus whatever is depicted in that film will simply infuriate Trumpanzees even more into voting for him. They don't care he's a crook, a sex offender, and a fraud. They just want to see his detractors lose, even if it means putting a senile old fraudulent woman-groper back in the White House for 4 years.
