IS THE GRAND OLD PARTY DEAD? WHAT WE ARE LEARNING FROM REPUBLICAN VOTERS

I have an update on the latest political news, and as promised, I will share some of the article by Dana Milbank for The Washington Post, "The last remnants of the Republican Party died in Iowa."

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/01/15/2024-iowa-caucuses-gop-candidates-trump/

In one section, Milbank describes some of Trump's only speech in Iowa. It begins with a Campaign Video that proclaims that Trump is "God's" Candidate and that he was created to fix our country.

Here is an excerpt from the article. 

“We’ve got a crooked country,” run by “stupid people,” “corrupt,” “incompetent,” “the worst.”

Trump, in the gospel according to Trump, was the victim of “hoaxes,” “witch hunts,” “lies,” “fake indictments,” “fake trials,” judges who “are animals,” a “rigged election,” “rigged indictments,” and a “rigged Department of Justice where we have radical left, bad people, lunatics.

The nation’s capital, Washington, D.C., “is a rat-infested, graffiti-infested shithole,” he said, with swastikas all over the national monuments.

His opponents, the prophet Trump continued, are “Marxists,” “communists,” “fascists,” “liars, cheaters, thugs, perverts, frauds, crooks, freaks, creeps,” “warmongers” and “globalists.”

Immigrants are like a “vicious snake,” whose “bite is poisonous,” he told them, and there is an “invasion” at the border by “terrorists,” “jailbirds,” and “drug lords.”

“Our country is dying,” he informed them. And, by the way, “You’re very close to World War III.”

Have a nice day!" 

End quote

Since Milbank wrote the article, DeSantis has dropped out, and even though Nikki Haley may be a bump up from this, more and more Republicans are publicly supporting the MAGA Candidate, Donald Trump.

ALLEGATIONS and DRAMA IN THE TRUMP GEORGIA RICO CASE

One of Trump's co-defendants in the massive Georgia Racketeering Case is accusing Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis of engaging in an "Inappropriate" relationship with Special Prosecutor Nathan Wade, whom Willis hired. 

The co-defendant, Mike Roman, wants the charges against him dismissed. 

Judge Scott McAfee has scheduled a February 15 hearing on that Motion for Dismissal. That Motion to dismiss offered "No Proof" of wrongdoing.

Trump quickly seized on the allegations and sent out a fundraising e-mail. 

And while Willis has not yet responded directly to the allegations, she did talk about the burdens of the case and the constant threats to her life and the lives of her family members. 

The Fulton County District Attorney's Office has until Feb. 2 to respond to the Motion to Dismiss.

E. Jean Carroll Testifies As Trump Complains and Fights with Judge Kaplan

For the second time in the last nine months, Writer E. Jean Carroll Testified before a jury about being sexually assaulted by Donald Trump. But this time, she was telling her story in front of the former President, who has been found liable for attacking, harassing, and defaming her.

The Jury will determine how much money to award E. Jean because Trump has already been found guilty. 

There was another twist to this Hearing: Trump, loudly and with flourishes of hostile "body language, made it clear how unhappy he was with the trial and the testimony. 

The Judge, Lewis Kaplan, made it clear that Trump needed to quiet down, or he would be thrown out of the courtroom. 

The trial continues tomorrow. And Trump has said he will testify himself next week.

AN "ANONYMOUS" JURY FOR E. JEAN CARROLL v. TRUMP and WHY I LOVE IOWA

AN "ANONYMOUS" JURY FOR E. JEAN CARROLL v. TRUMP and WHY I LOVE IOWA. The judge in the E. Jean Carroll Case is taking extra security precautions to protect jurors from possible harassment from Trump "Trolls." 

We still don't have a Budget, and we will miss another deadline. 

And I explain why I love Iowa. 

Iowa Caucuses Almost Over - Thank God!

Ironically, the Iowa Caucuses are falling on the Day we all need to remember Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., A man who fought and died for racial equality and voting rights for all.  

All the media attention on Iowa is focused on Republicans. White Republicans. Donald Trump fans. 

President Biden changed how the Democratic Party holds its Primary and the Iowa Caucus. 

Why? He thought it would be better for the Country to focus on states representing a diverse group of Americans instead of predominately White Iowa. 

Biden is campaigning in South Carolina. Black voters in South Carolina helped him win the Presidency in 2020. 

Like it or not, Iowa is a predominately white, Christian, fundamentalist State. 

Iowa is 84.5 percent White. Please take a look at the link below.

THE TRUMP TRIALS 2024

THE TRUMP TRIALS 2024 - Donald Trump is gearing up for a year of multi-tasking in 2024. He is running for President, and he is running away from 91 Felony Counts in various State and Federal Courts. 

In addition to the Criminal Charges, Trump is fighting to keep control of his business empire in the State of New York, and trying to defend himself in the E. Jean Carroll Defamation Case - Part Two. 

There are some key dates in this month alone, including a DC Appeals Court hearing on his Election Interference Case, where he claims he has immunity and has asked that the charges be dismissed. 

And hanging over all this is whether the United States Supreme Court is going to step in and rule on the 14th Amendment, Section Three. The States of Colorado and Maine want Trump's name off their Primary Ballots. 

Whew! And this is just a short overview. I'll have more in the days to come. And I'm posting everything on gloriamoraga.com.

Repeating and Openly Embracing Nazi Reherotic - Trump Marches into 2024

Repeating and Openly Embracing Nazi Rhetoric - Trump Marches into 2024 as millions of his followers applaud him. And Republicans remain Silent! 

Former President Donald Trump repeated his Immigrants are "Poisoning our Blood" mantra as he tries to scare voters into supporting him. The phrase is directly from Hitler's autobiography.

And it worked for that short, mustachioed, psychotic dictator in Germany in the 1930s.

IS A TRUMP DICTATORSHIP INEVITABLE?

The Headlines are everywhere:

The Washington Post: "A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable. We should stop pretending."

The Nation: "This is How Trump Becomes a Dictator."

The Guardian: "The US could be under a rightwing dictator."

Vanity Fair: "Trump Makes it Clear He'd be an Out and Out Dictator if Reelected in 2024."

The Atlantic, The New York Times, and, of course, TV News have all written and produced stories that lay out how Trump's people plan to Hijack our Republic and chang our form of Government from Democratic to Dictatorship.

Today, some of Trump's allies pushed back on social media. Senator JD Vance wrote, "Everyone needs to take a chill pill."

Those seven words aren't comforting when all you have to do is log on to the PROJECT 2025 website.

You can find a visible step-by-step plan to reshape the executive branch of the US Federal Government if Republicans/Trump wins the Presidential Election.

The plan includes consolidating the power now shared by three branches of Government into a stronger Executive Branch.

Hmmm? Rewriting the Constitution to destroy "Separation of Powers?" It sounds very "Dictator-leaning" to me.

For this Political Woman Podcast Episode, I share parts of the 6,000-word plus Opinion Essay by Robert Kagan. "A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable. We should stop pretending."
