    i hear he got a surprisingly small crowd to hear him speak in support of another sex offender 

    Reports are his neo-fascist rally crowds of worshippers have been getting smaller

    The “protesters” that caused $2 billion+ in insurance claims probably should have been shot according to the law

    “Can't you just shoot them? Just shoot them in the legs or something?” Esper quotes Trump saying.

     

    The then president allegedly made the remark as protesters descended on Washington, D.C., following the murder of George Floyd on May 25, 2020, by a Minneapolis police officer.


    The quote was first reported by Axios.

    President Donald Trump wanted U.S. troops to shoot protesters during racial justice demonstrations in 2020, according to a new book from Trump's former Defense Secretary Mark Esper.  

     

    what the hell ????  confused

    “Can't you just shoot them? Just shoot them in the legs or something?” Esper quotes Trump saying.

     

    The then president allegedly made the remark as protesters descended on Washington, D.C., following the murder of George Floyd on May 25, 2020, by a Minneapolis police officer.


    The quote was first reported by Axios.

    Good governance  or  petty vengeance?

     

    According to a copy of trump's ex-Secretary of Defense Mark Esper’s memoir, A Sacred Oath, obtained by TPM, trump demanded that former Gen. Stan McChrystal and former Navy Admiral William H. McRaven be recalled into active duty so that they could be court-martialed for correctly criticizing the the neo-fascist, twice-impeached, Putin ally.

    Russia Expert Analyst Fiona Hill Explains


    Russia’s invasion of Ukraine would have played out very differently
    had Donald Trump succeeded in his coup attempt on Jan. 6, 2021,
    says former Trump National Security Council analyst, Fiona Hill.

    Russian President Vladimir Putin would have been massively emboldened
    and “would have probably just driven right into Ukraine himself,” said Hill,
    an expert on Russian affairs, in an interview with Bloomberg released Friday.

    Had former Vice President Mike Pence not blocked Trump’s plan

    United States as completely finished from a leadership perspective
    because we would be no different from any other country
    in the world that had just had a coup,”  explained Hill.

    But the attack by Trump supporters on the U.S. Capitol was still
    “a particular moment” that helped inspire the Russian leader to
    order the military invasion of Ukraine, agreed Hill.

    Trump's ex-defense chief says he won't back Trump in 2024

    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Former Defense Secretary Mark Esper said on Tuesday he would not vote for Donald Trump in 2024 if the Republican former president runs again, saying Trump lacked integrity and would not put the United States ahead of his own personal interests.

    Asked if he would vote for Trump in 2024, Esper told MSNBC, "No" 

    Esper added:

    "Any elected official needs to meet some basic criteria: They need to be able to put country over self. They need to have a certain level of integrity and principle. They need to be able to reach across the aisle and bring people together and unite the country. Donald Trump doesn't meet those marks," he said.

    Esper said that during the ceremony, he felt relief that Trump — whom he was highly critical of in his memoir — would be replaced with a new leader.

    "I sat at home, watching carefully, eagerly,
    and finally, both pleased and relieved that
    we had made it — the nation made it," he wrote.
    "We had a NEW commander in chief!" an_cheers
