Shouldn't have said what you said about DeSantis/Gillum race, Trump.

Lawyer for @AndrewGillum cites Donald Trump statement on @GovRonDeSantis as more cause for hearing and document discovery in his federal public corruption case.

The posts "raise serious questions about how exactly Trump 'fixed' DeSantis' campaign and what Trump directed the FBI and the U.S. Attorney's Office to do, and whether there is any connection to the FBI's investigation and later prosecution of Gillum," Miami lawyer David Markus.

1. I have the same questions.

Gee, if Tiffany Cross were on MSNBC, we would get the low down on all this as it happens.

2. Trump is a fuck-up.

He can't help himself.

[democratsruletheday]

3. The Orange POS is on a roll....

just can't help himself. Keep digging asshole.

10. He can, he just needs the law applied to him like a regular citizen... It's not being done so right

20. Actually this might have been intentional.

He knows he's in hot water legally. He knows many Republicans are ready to move on given how badly his candidates performed. He's extremely angry about how DeSantis is perceived as the rising star. He also knows that he made DeSantis by endorsing him in the 2018 republican primary.

He could be staying here "if I go down I'm taking the rest of you with me."

4. This 2018 race is being investigated by the Fed's in their Greenberg and other

Florida GOP. We are just not sure what all the investigations are about but this could well be part of it. Not exactly as Trump relates it but does include Stone and his Proud Boys militia. There is a good article at EW.

6. THANK YOU for that link!

Excellent journalism.

5. What's to say DeSantis didn't rig Florida this time

[IronLionZion]

7. Florida is the only state that saw a red wave

DeSantis and Rubio saw landslides when polling showed much closer races. Very suspicious.

[nycbos]

18. What polls?

Every pole I saw had both Rubio and DeSantis way ahead. In fact Florida might be the only state with the pollsters actually got it right.

Now if you want to say both of them are sleazy assholes I agree with you 100%

[dchill]

8. He did. Right out in the open.

He illegally redristricted 5 Dem seats. Gerrymandered to Republican. Right Wing judges wouldn't reject the maps.

11. omfg, we REALLY. REALLY need voting reform!!!!

12. No smelly excretions!

13. When it comes to the Dumpster, no one really knows what he means. He could have ordered the FBI to

do something clearly illegal, they might have said "yes sir" and proceeded to do nothing. Dump would be none the wiser. His understanding of government and elections is so vague, nothing he says about them is guaranteed to mean anything. Sometimes he just makes stuff up to sound cool or powerful. No one knows.

14. I like it

[FakeNoose]

15. Somebody please forward this to Merrick Garland

I believe he's looking for evidence of Chump's crimes and this might be helpful.

[nycbos]

16. I think it was intentional.

Even Trump may realize he might have backed himself into a corner that he can't get out of. Trump might've said what he said to say "if I go down I am taking all of you with me."

17. Biden will need a resignation PDQ is this is true

[Polybius]

19. So if they both get arrested, who gets the nomination in 2024?

Tucker Carlson?

22. I posted about this the other day. Stinks to high heaven

23. TFG doesn't believe in "records." Nothing matters but what he says in the moment

H4's an even bigger liar than Putin is, although for a different reason. He just says whatever will gain him attention in the moment, none of it means a damned thing and never will.

[progressoid]

25. Yeah, his words hold no value.

Didn't they chart over 30 thousand lies during his 4 years?

[diehardblue]

24. This makes me wonder if Gillum was surveilled when he was encouraging people in

Florida to vote in a campaign after the Governor's race. Then he was identified as a member of the LGBTQ Community and a convenient person was there to take pictures, post them and end any future hopes he would have for a political office. Just wondering.
