Re: Trump Trump Trump

There is no doubt that a payment was made so it is never going to be a Trump v. Daniels debate. The issue, insofar as I can see is: Was the payment he made for legal fees, or was it stated to be for...

Re: Trump Trump Trump

Not NI, although I was there, insurrections in which the UK was attempting to overthrow the then government. As I am sure you are aware, it isn't only the US that becomes involved in such things.

Re: Trump Trump Trump

I accept that disrupting the confirmation may have been a motive. That is a far cry from overthrowing the government.

I've listened to all 70 minutes of his speech and, as I am not a MAGA hat...

Re: Trump Trump Trump

I would suggest that the authorities do not have enough evidence to charge Trump at this time, or they would have done so.

I agree that Trumpists will do all that they can to delay the obtaining...

Re: Trump Trump Trump

I will agree that people stormed the Capitol. For what reason only they can explain as, unlike some posters, I don't intend to speak for them.

I accept that the US justice system has tried, and...

Re: Trump Trump Trump

OK. It appears that I need to make my position clear:

I don't believe that the storming of the Capitol was an attempt to "overthrow the government." Firstly, because the actions taken did not, in...

Re: Trump Trump Trump

FFS, I don't believe that it was an attempt to overthrow the government for the reasons I first referred to, looking at the totality of what happened. In the land where lots of people have firearms,...

Re: Trump Trump Trump

I believe that 4 deaths, sometime after the event, were suicide. On the day, I believe one person was shot (by police), one died as a result of drugs they took, and the other 3, as you have stated,...

Re: Trump Trump Trump

I didn't mention Trump's authority.

I have no idea what the VP's powers were to stop the process on that particular day. Nor, it appears, did Trump.

Re: Trump Trump Trump

It appeared to me that most of it was simply him spouting about how he believed the vote was not a valid. Which I accept was bullshit.

Very little of it was about any form of specific action and...

Re: Trump Trump Trump

Once again, you demonstrate why the words in my signature are correct and why I usually don't engage with you. I simply stated that I didn't believe that the events of that day were an attempt to...

Not really. I simply read his words as a sensible, non-partisan, person would. I think that Trump was a poor loser but I don't believe he wanted anyone to storm the Capitol or that anyone would...

OK. I suggest you look at the casualties from the US Civil War as an indication of the number of lives that may need to have been taken to attempt such a change. Of course, the actual numbers would...

"Sufficient amount of injuries for what?" Where have I ever stated that there would be a "sufficient amount of injuries"?

Re: Trump Trump Trump

Possibly. It will be interesting to see if the investigation turns up anything concrete in support of such an opinion or if if turns into as much of a damp squib as the previous investigation into...

Well, I am not an expert on overthrowing governments but, if one's intent was to overthrow the US government, I would have been expecting to hear about far more injuries than have been posted above...

I don't know what you mean by "how many injuries would be appropriate?" I don't recall stating that any injuries would have been "appropriate."

I would think that, if overthrowing the government...

Re: Trump Trump Trump

Is there any dispute that Iran has attacked US interests in the region? He has all the evidence he needs.

One can argue that his reaction is incorrect but his justification is just as plausible...

I have to admit that I find the wall to wall news regarding Trump somewhat tedious so I simply rely upon the BBC to keep me informed of current events in the US. Is Trump being accused of...

I know that, in Canada, sexual assault is used in the criminal code to cover a large range of "offences" from touching someone to penetration. IIRC, rape was a specific offence in the UK. I don't...
