D.L. Gardner: Trump is the Only Issue in '24

 Former President Donald Trump is the only issue voters will vote on in the 2024 presidential election. Some might object that he has to win the GOP nomination first, and technically that’s true. The Republican party has attracted some solid conservative candidates for president, but Trump’s base overwhelms support for any other candidate.

On the other hand the Biden administration, complicit legacy media, and #NeverTrumpers have worked diligently to keep Trump front and center in every 24-hour news cycle. Remember when Hillary, the DNC, and establishment wanted Trump to be the GOP candidate in 2016? Be careful what you ask for.

Consider that Joe Biden defeated Trump in a close, divisive, and problematic contest. Biden has a relatively small percentage of voters. His record as president is dismal. The only chance Biden has of winning in 2024 is to convince voters Trump will undoubtedly destroy the United States of America.

When Trump was president he was besieged daily by the usual suspects. Ironically Trump has demonstrated he can unify large groups of influencers and voters more than any other person or policy in American history. He unifies and evokes pure hatred from his opposition. 

What can an incumbent candidate do when he or she doesn’t have a good record to run on? When his opponent’s record on the economy, credit rating, inflation rate, gas prices, minority unemployment numbers, and border control were so much better than the incumbent’s? Weaponize the DOJ, FBI, and all the other bureaucracies. 

In the past few months former president Trump has been indicted three times, and a fourth indictment is pending in Georgia. Trump is the only president who has ever been indicted, and coincidentally, some polls have him leading President Biden in the 2024 race for president. In fact his poll numbers appear to rise every time he’s indicted. 

March 30, New York County District Attorney indicted Trump on 34 felony accounts about business records, including allegations about paying Stormy Daniels hush money to cover up a reported affair seven years ago. A trial date has not yet been set.

June 9, the DOJ indicted Trump on 37 felony counts of mishandling classified documents. July 27 three more felony counts were added to the initial charges. The trial on these charges is scheduled to begin May 20, 2024. 

Last week Special Counsel Jack Smith announced four felony charges against Trump for conspiracy to defraud the United States; conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding; conspiracy against rights and obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding. All four charges revolve around statements Trump made in challenging results of the 2020 presidential election as well as his speech on January 6, 2021, to a large gathering of supporters.

Outside the news, Hunter Biden has been defending himself from two tax evasion charges and a gun charge. His lawyers had struck a plea agreement with prosecutors who asked U. S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika to sign it. Hidden deep within the diversion agreement, Noreika read, “the United States agrees not to criminally prosecute Biden, outside of the terms of this Agreement, for any federal crimes encompassed by the attached State of Facts.” Judge Noreika asked whether this stipulation granted Hunter immunity from other related charges. Yep! That’s when the deal fell apart. Oops!

There are over 80 witnesses for the prosecution of Trump and none of them are democrats .
It’s funny now that the prosecutor in the Biden Case has been made an Independent Prosecutor, republicans are mad!

Articles of Impeachment filed against Joey The Sniffer today, perhaps a few minutes too early. Of course Senate will not find him guilty of House Charges.

Meanwhile Obama is presumably setting up Gov Nuisance to replace Biden as DNC POTUS candidate, provided Nuisance agrees to be Obama's boyfriend on the down low. Who will Obama pick for the VP? Susan Rice so she can be Obama's spy in the WH?

Since the beginning of the republic there have been those who doubt its ultimate survival, at least without a monarch or lifetime ruler at it's head. With the ascent of the egotist Trump now proclaimed by himself and millions of others as the only hope for a nation of 350 million semi-literate human beings, it seems we have reached a tipping point. We have never had a win-or-else scenario in our presidential elections, but after the last Trump loss we may face such a crisis. Whether we know it or not, this is thin ice.

The whole country knows these repetitive are jokes. Whatever witnesses are trotted out are at least as dependable/credible as those who testified against Cavanaugh's nomination.

"Consider that Joe Biden defeated Trump in a close, divisive, and problematic contest. " Well let's see.

Close? Trump lost the 2020 popular vote by 7 million. He lost the Electoral College 306 to 232. He also lost the 2016 popular vote to Hillary, the most unlikeable presidential candidate prior to DeSantis, by almost 3 million. But, close? Sure, in your warped world I guess.

Problematic? Because trump is a spoiled child that can't stand to lose. Remember the 2016 Iowa caucus when child trump accused Ted Cruz of stealing the caucus? {“Ted Cruz didn’t win Iowa, he illegally stole it. That is why all of the polls were so wrong any [sic] why he got more votes than anticipated. Bad!” Trump tweeted Wednesday morning.} Same song different verse in 2020 and his lap dogs lap up his lunatic ravings.

Republicans continue to whine about Hunter Biden’s gun charge potentially being dropped but fail to acknowledge that the Supreme Court’s Bruen opinion (written by their champion Justice Thomas) has left nearly every federal gun crime in limbo. Just this week the Fifth Circuit threw out a conviction under the same statutory provision Hunter was charged under because the court found the provision violated the 2nd Amendment (Bruen). Maybe the unfettered gun rights so many Republicans clamor for is coming back to bite them. Not everything is a grand conspiracy. Plea deals get made every day. Maybe DOJ is weary of charging people under that provision at this time.

Most thrived with Trump in WH. Trump may have a NY dockworker's boastful, cocky personality that's gruff and off-putting to the pretentiously genteel, and threatening to grifting swamp critters, but he loved America and helped create opportunity for all but the cockroaches.

I will be pleased to have him or DeSantis for President.

Trump won’t win in 2024. Republicans need to get their heads out of their asses
and smell the coffee! We best roll with DeSantis or someone else.

Even CNN is reporting the average American household is spending $709 more a month now. If CNN is saying it’s $709, then it’s probably double that. Voters are absolute morons if they vote for the puppet President and against their own wallets.

I will be voting for Donald J. Trump even if I have to write his name in.

Tell me you don’t know how Presidential election works without telling me you don’t know. It was ~50,000 votes in 5 states those cost Trump the Presidency.

I’ve got bad news for you.
Donald Trump isn’t “far right” and you are a delusional democrat.
No democrat candidate, or even Republican for that matter, can fill enormous stadiums the way President Trump can!

Voltaire said, “If someone can convince you to believe absurdities, he can convince you to commit atrocities.”

Exhibit A: Trump tells his cult for months that the election was stolen. Then, his cult (which BACKS THE BLUE) sent 150 cops to the hospital in a violent attack on Congress & our Constitution.

It’s not difficult to see, if you don’t get your news from Alex Jones and Joe Rogan.

Also: There’s a reason Trump proudly crowed, “I LOVE the poorly educated!”

Remember what you posted when it’s announced that Mark Meadows is cooperating under a grant of immunity.

Rudy’s gonna flip, too. He doesn’t want to die in prison.

Then you’ll call them “Deep State,” too.

I think you meant to say Tucker Carlson instead of Alex Jones.
Tucker got 200 million views within a week when his Twitter (now X) "chat" video debuted.

Tucker's interview with the former DC police chief and the subsequent exposé proving how the Feds orchestrated Jan 6 "riot" has surpassed 200 million views as well.

Alex Jones just gets drunk and sells overpriced supplements for 3 hours a day to an audience of less than 200,000.

Deep State (military-industrial-intelligence complex, billionaires, news media, etc.) will make sure Biden and Victoria Nuland have a second term. No one who questions the warmongering of the last 70 years like RFK Jr. and Trump (who unfortunately gave prominent positions in his administration to neocons Mike Pompeo, John Bolton, and Nikki Haley and unfortunately reversed two of the only good things Obama did - Iran nuclear deal, better relations with Cuba) can be elected. Mississippians love the wars too, though this will all come to an end in 15 to 20 years when this country can no longer support the massive debt that all this military spending and supply side tax cuts have caused.

Anyone who praises Obama's Nuclear Deal with Iran is clearly an anti-Semite who, at best, wants to see Israel nuked and, at worst, wants to see the entire planet destroyed by Israel's Samson Orbital Defense System.

Kingfish said...

um, what warmongering did Trump do?

Because Kristol, Boot, et all hate his guts because he wouldn't go for their war schemed.

Fired Bolton too because he never saw a war he didn't like .

@1:52 -

You think Tucker Carlson’s target audience is intelligent?

Have you seen the text messages? Where he talks among colleagues about “hating Trump passionately,” then goes on air saying the opposite for his audience of morons? They’re so stupid, they think the heir to the Swanson’s frozen dinner fortune is looking out for the blue collar common man.

You people truly are stupid.

You’re in a cult.

Gullible rube, can you prove 150 cops were injured on Jan.6, or are you spreading manure?

Anonymous said...

@4:03
It isn't about going on the air and loving or hating Trump. It is about exposing the traitors in DC. Even Joe Rogan openly calls Trump a clown. That doesn't stop him from calling out all the traitorous bullshit used against Trump and the American people during the Scamdemic. You assume everyone supporting Trump by calling out Pelosi and Bennie T for their false flag should be just like Jon Oliver gushing over Obama, because you lack critical thinking skills.

Trump supporter calls someone else a gullible rube. It’s always projection with you cultists, just like your orange pagan god.

It was all ANTIFA anyway, right? And Ray Epps? And THE DEEP STATE DOING A FALSE FLAG!!!!!!11!!!!

Have you ever, in a moment of quiet reflection, asked yourself, “Why does Trump love the poorly educated?”

HAHA! Kidding! That would require critical thinking skills and basic reasoning.

You people are so, so stupid. And you wear it as a badge of honor.

Gullible rube, what makes you think I'm a Trump supporter? Your assumption causes you to reveal yourself as the ass you are. I have never voted for Trump, and don't have intentions to vote for him in the future.

I asked for proof of the 150 cops being hospitalized, and to hide your lie you resorted to personal attacks. Where's the proof, manure spreader?

The fact you called other's cultist reveals your lack of self awareness. If Trump supporters are cultist, they are no more cultist than you and the rest of the Democratic Party devotees. Where's your proof?

Yes, show us the proof!

DeSantis in 2024!

There should be an age limit on becomeing president, and that age limit should be 35-65. Anyone older or younger should not be in Congress nor President of the USA. This country will never move forward as long as old people are running it. Of course, that's just my opinion.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
