Judicial Delays and Political Plays: The Strategy to Prevent Trump’s Presidency

“We just have to demonstrate that he will not take power if he does run, making sure he — under legitimate efforts of our Constitution — does not become the next president again.” This ominous statement came from President Joe Biden when asked by a CNN reporter what Biden could do to reassure the world that Trump would not return to the White House and “take power.”

Biden’s response alarmed many people at the time and was made just as Trump had teased that he was in fact going to announce running again for the presidency. Many concluded this statement implied that the Democrats were not going to let the people decide and were going to somehow “make sure” Trump was stopped. Biden revealed his own awareness of the nature of what he was saying by adding in almost as an aside “under legitimate efforts of our Constitution,” but that simply reinforced how the remark could be frighteningly interpreted.

Now two years later, we can say we learned exactly what Biden meant. Democrats have implemented an obscene and reckless campaign of lawfare against Trump resulting in dozens of felony indictments and multiple trials in a clear effort to destroy his public support and to take him off the field through imprisonment or some kind of confinement.

But this week, two judges who could have delivered the Democrats their fever dream of confining Trump and putting him on trial again in the weeks leading up to the election, blinked.

Federal Judge Tanya Chutkan postponed Jack Smith’s January 6th case against Trump until November 7, after election day. Just a day later Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan delayed the sentencing of Donald Trump in the aftermath of the so-called “hush money” verdict in New York. In delaying the sentencing also after the election from September 18 to November 26 the New York Post reported, “In a four-page decision, Merchan wrote he was delaying the sentencing in a bid to combat “unwarranted” claims that his decision on Trump’s punishment could be based on politics rather than the law, so close to the election.”

What Merchan ignores is that the entire effort has been based on politics. But something happened none of them expected—by refusing to leave Trump’s side, the American people said enough is enough.

From the start I have contended that there was one meaning to Biden’s words and we saw multiple legal efforts geared toward imprisoning Donald Trump. Everything involved in the federal case, as an example, like the absurd and dangerous raid on Mar-a-Lago, was designed for public consumption as propaganda meant to destroy Donald Trump’s appeal and support.

But Americans began to see this calculated and organized effort against a political opponent as deeply unfair. It was and is, as many have described it, a witch hunt. Too many Americans themselves have experienced a justice system that is biased, unfair, and political at its root. But unlike the super-majority of Americans, Trump had the money with which to fight. And thank goodness he did.

Trump had the financial and legal resources to confront every effort against him, appealing at every level, including to the US Supreme Court on the issue of presidential immunity, on which he prevailed. All of his actions, while they did not stop the rabid obsession of the establishment to “make sure” he does not become president again, delayed their kangaroo courts and forced the federal government, in particular, to have to rework their scheme in light of that Supreme Court ruling.

The Democrats and their enforcers in New York, Georgia, and the Department of Justice, also severely underestimated the American character and our distaste for overgrown bullies sucker punching not only Trump, but the country itself, in the face every day. The only explanation for the brazen abuse of our legal system in an attempt to destroy a political leader in this country is the belief by the Democrats that they could get away with it because they’ve gotten away with so much more.

Trump’s polls began to rise after each contrived legal case against him making it clear that once again the Democrats had underestimated the American people.

Every single court case contrived against Donald Trump was designed to remove him from public life. Many people during this process couldn’t believe that the courts would imprison the most popular American politician on the scene today. But my answer is, if they were thinking reasonably and logically at all, none of this would be happening in the first place.

With the decisions this week from Chutkan and Merchan the Democrats and the left have had a very bad week. Their golden ring dreams of taking out Trump before the election have failed, but only because his public support increased and he easily became the GOP’s presidential nominee for the third time.

Keep in mind, their expectation of having Trump in jail also explained their continued support of Biden, despite his obvious cognitive decline, until it became obvious Trump wasn’t going anywhere. After all, in their imaginations, if Trump was off the field, then they could install anyone into the Oval Office, including a confused Biden. Then, suddenly, the Democrats decided to throw Jill Biden’s suffering husband under the bus.

The November 5th election has been recognized as an inflection point for this nation. The last four years have made the choice very clear. If you love the impact of inflation, crime, an open border, and a world at war, vote for Kamala, and you’ll get more of the same on steroids. If you want a return to law and order, a better economy, a secure nation, and an America that keeps the world at peace through strength, vote for Donald Trump.

Like with so many banana republics, if Donald Trump loses on November 5th, the establishment will imprison him one way or another. As long as he can talk and be seen he is a threat to the establishment because he encourages regular Americans to have faith and to trust in themselves. He encourages us to never back down and to fight, fight, fight for what is right. As a result, November 5th is now going to be the biggest jury verdict in the history of the country. All of us with our vote will be sending a message to our corrupt system about what is acceptable and who we are as a people.

The political reasons for delaying the sentencing by these two leftist judges is, they know if they did any sentencing before the election it would probably give Trump a boost in the polls. They know too many Americans see the whole thing for what it is, a political prosecution, so they will bide their time. Even if he wins, they may sentence him to prison and then a bunch of democrats will get together and devise some way to say he can’t be president if he’s in prison and a felon. I wouldn’t put any low life deed past anything deep state democrats would do to keep him out. They’ve already tried to kill him once and it very well may happen again before or after he wins!

Everyone hates the middle man and now I can see why! The half of what you said that I agree with is all on the right, from which we have already moved too far from. The other half is the Left Side which has done nothing but weaken our country in myriad ways. The time has come to get off the fence and support the side trying to save our country from the ruin inflicted on it by the left!

Cancel Culture – one step closer to a police state. Hard to believe this is happening in America. The outcome of this election is critical. Praying Trump survives but it is an uphill battle, and will continue to be even if he manages to pull a win. I have seen reports of some states cleaning up their voter rolls but who knows what else will be pulled out of the hat to rig the results. Again, hard to believe this is happening in America.
Just a reminder that government is not eternal, but God is. He knows. He is the ultimate hope in life, regardless of the outcome of this election. But it would be nice to have a return to a more civil society, if that is even possible now. The ones who scream “intolerance” the loudest are the very ones who are intolerant of the conservative right.

Biden also warned there would be no “peaceful turnover of power” if Trump wins too. Trial after trial, indictment after indictments: ronic they charge Trump with “election interference”? And if Trump dies win, get ready for more impeachments assuming the Republican wave fizzles again.

How can anyone equate MAGA and the Progressive Left as being equally extremist? MAGA supports all that our country fully embraced in far better times than these! The Left has foisted irreversible gender surgeries on minors, allowed foreign gangs and terrorists into our country and keeps trying to override amendments of our constitutional rights! There is no comparison whatsoever!

I guess you meant to say ‘are’… ‘are moving the country backward.’ That’s YOUR opinion. You can have your opinion in America – so far. If ‘Partisanship’ is for a ‘good cause’ that’s ‘reasonable and ethical’, there’s NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. It just represents a ‘different opinion’ – which you seem to be in favor of having, unless it disagrees with YOU.
There is no Law that says what you just said there. What HAS moved this nation BACKWARD in time, is the last two Dem Presidencies that have tended toward ‘dictatorship’ and unlawful abuse of power, and collusion with paid actors misrepresenting facts and indoctrinating our children (schools) and impregnating our Judiciary and Govt. with Dem agendas that defy our Constitution, our Laws, and our People! and the Best Interests of this Nation and our Security, in EVERY WAY KNOWN TO MAN.

How can you have reasonable compromise from communists that want to destroy our Constitutional rights? If the communist democrats were reasonable, they would want factual debates. These people only want what is good for the globalist agenda.

“Steeping down”? Biden didn’t step down, he was forced out…… the man who supposedly received the most votes of ANY President was forced out by the Democratic Elites and replaced by a woman who was on the Primary Ballot as a “tag along” She was “installed” by the Party that claims to want to save Democracy ????‍♂️…… from insider reports, Biden is pissed how they did him and Queen Jill is beside herself …… do you think, Harris is a better choice ?

Biden has never done the honorable thing and was forced out of the race. Who are you trying to kid? If you think the Harris/Walz ticket is a good choice than you have already shown which side you are working for. Not only would Trump stepping down give the Left what it needs in it’s deconstruction of truth, justice and the American way (apologies to Superman) it would be the most dishonorable thing to do to his supporters! We are looking forward to having the Honor of voting for Trump for the third time! You like to represent yourself as 50/50 but clearly you are 100% in the Leftist Camp and are deliberately misrepresenting yourself to the AMAC membership!

Romney turns whatever direction the wind blows and is without integrity of any kind. A large part of the reason Obama won the first time was that the Republican Party insisted on running McCain who was always more interested in attacking his own party than opposing anything terrible by the Democrats. Which is why Republican voters did not support him. Many of us wanted to send the GOP a message to not run their worst! They didn’t learn their lesson and repeated their mistake in running Romney. And people wonder why the populism movement has taken the Republican Party by storm? The secret is give the voters what they have been asking for and we have not been asking for the RINOs only listing you portray as being the best Republicans. As his deceptive betrayal on the Obamacare vote revealed, McCain did not work with the Democrats, he was really working for them!

Once again you’re wrong. Both parties have NOT abused the system! And ‘centrists’ NEVER MAKE any decisions! except bad ones because they’re not BASED on having ‘principles’ or ‘outcomes’, but just ‘good intentions and feelings’. And you’re comparing ‘apples’ with ‘bananas’ here. Trump was ATTACKED by first Clinton/Dems, then Biden/Dems. He only DEFENDED himself and his positions! The Clintons and Bidens criminalized and abused their high govt. positions. Trump didn’t. All the cases against Trump the Dems have lodged are FALLING APART – because THEY were Unlawful.

The Clinton/Obiden crime family is FULL OF CRIMES! left and right! Trump is NOT, and he carried out his Presidential duties with aplomb, expertise, decisiveness and class. Biden made a fool of himself everywhere he went! which was SELDOM! Name ONE of Trump’s policies he succeeded in providing to America that was irresponsible or wrong. Dems tried impeaching him twice over NOTHING REAL, and failed both times. Trump was a GREAT President that our press gave no credit to. They didn’t even provide a picture of him for school classrooms across America like they do for EVERY President! nor one of he and Melania AFTER their Presidency ended! as all Presidents and First Ladies receive!

No, that’s the best way to have ‘stagnation’ and ‘stalemates’ in our Govt. – that we’ve already HAD many a time! and have NOW. It’s a good way to help STOP an out-of-control Govt. somewhat, but it’s NOT a good way to ‘get anything DONE that needs to get DONE’ when a corrupt Political Party stands in the way of getting anything DONE that is NEEDED, simply because it doesn’t WANT the ‘other Party’ to get any Credit for DOING anything that is GOOD for the Nation, or anything that The People WANT DONE. ALL simply because that ‘other Party’ doesn’t WANT THE PEOPLE to KNOW that the ‘other Party’ is working FOR THE PEOPLE, not THEM (so they PREVENT it from happening!)
But if you take YOUR approach to everything – NOTHING WILL EVER GET DONE! And SOME THINGS NEED to get DONE, as we’re seeing RIGHT NOW!

Most all of your positions are NOT ‘middle’ at all, but very Republican. Certainly NOT Dem. Most Middles vote with Dems – so they’re not ‘middle’ either. Most Republicans are ALREADY fairly compromising with their personal ‘belief’ system just to go ‘middle’ which Republicans embrace. There are ‘far extremes’ for EVERY position.
I think Repubs do a better job than Dems at ‘compromising’ – but there comes a ‘point’, as you described, when you HAVE to ‘draw the line’ and say ‘no further!’ – like legalizing Men in Women’s public private areas! or in Women’s Sports! So I don’t get what your beef is… no one but Dems disagree with most those points.
But when it comes to McCain (who I used to like and voted for…) HE CHANGED, and turned against the Repub. Party PLATFORM with his ‘Gang of 8’. (Who wants a GANG in our Congress???) and LOTS has TURNED on that one issue of ‘the Border’. It’s a simple answer: Close it! And only Trump actually DID IT, and the Wall was almost FINISHED that the People have been being Promised for 5-6 Decades, but Dems wouldn’t do it, and Repubs wouldn’t even bring it up! So Trump just DID IT! on his own! with NO HELP from Dems or Repubs! in power positions!
And now, after Obiden/Harris, our whole Nation is IN BIG TROUBLE, and we NEED HIM BACK in OFFICE to finish what he started and didn’t get to finish! And, if you hadn’t noticed, The People WANT HIM BACK! And whether you vote for him or not, he’s going to WIN BIG, so get over it that he won’t miss your vote! And if Dems attempt to steal it AGAIN, they’re going to have their hands full, and their feet will be in stocks by the time it’s all said and done! Count on it!
A little Compromise is ok, until it’s not and it’s time to TAKE A STAND for SOMETHING! That’s why never have we ever had a middle-grounder, wishy-washy candidate WIN for President. Leaders are Decisive and Driven by Principles. Wishy-washy people who can always compromise with evil have few principles they stand on. Who are YOU to say who the People can vote to represent them if they want?! I’ve read all your comments here. You just went DOWN from here…

AMAC – you published TWELVE in a row posts by ’50/50′ we had to read through, but you censored FOUR of my ‘replies’ to him. Why? He was advocating for very adverse positions, and I merely pointed out what was wrong with them. I wasn’t disrespectful or discourteous, and didn’t use any crude language. Why would you censor ME and NOT HIM??? I am a MEMBER of AMAC because we believe the same things! I don’t get it. I had to go through several double-proofs that I’m not a Robot! Why did you do that? I see disagreeing replies on here all the time from others. Can someone there contact me and tell me what I did wrong that you wouldn’t print my posts, but only HIS?

I wish these views WOULD reflect the AMAC because it is right. The Democrats, at the hands of the Left, are conducting a witch-hunt and the election is the most important election in years. God is in charge and I’m praying He will hears our prayers and deliver Trump as the President. Praise His Holy Name!
