He meant Ronny Jackson, currently serving as a Texas Congressman (who was demoted by the US Navy in July 2022, following a damaging Pentagon inspector general’s report that substantiated allegations about his inappropriate behaviour as a White House physician).

It isn’t even hard to spot the lies he’s telling, is it. Whatever he’s accusing his opponents of being/doing, that’s exactly what Trump’s trying to cover up (while getting it hilariously wrong).

NEW YORK (AP) — New York’s top court on Tuesday declined to hear Donald Trump’s gag order appeal in his hush money case, leaving the restrictions in place following his felony conviction last month. The Court of Appeals found that the order does not raise “substantial” constitutional issues that would warrant an immediate intervention.

Re: Trump’s Troubles
I see we are at the "Trump is an antisemite" phase of stopping him at all costs.

Re: Trump’s Troubles
Or more Trumped up charges.
Edit: having seen some of the footage that wouldn't be enough. It's over.

They’ll have to, two more debates are scheduled. Two more repeats of that and it’s over, it’s already over. Only the most hardcore of hardcore will vote for a man who is evidently incapacitated.
I knew it happen around the debates, they can’t run cover for him when he’s up there by himself

Re: Trump’s Troubles
The “good news” for Trump is that the optics of simultaneously trying to prosecute him for anything and everything while scrambling around for a candidate to beat him are that bad that the Democrats won’t be stupid enough to pursue it. It’s one or the other.
An election where neither candidate won their nomination in the primaries would be the stuff of banana republics.

Re: Trump’s Troubles
Apparently, only Biden himself can decide to stop down. The only people he's likely to listen to on this are his family and not his political advisers.

The prosecutions are happening anyway. The documents one won't go away unless he wins the Presidency.

I don't see the prosecution against Trump and a search for a new candidate as being linked in any way. And presumably Harris is a shoe-in unless someone wants to be the one Democrat preventing someone from her demographic progressing to the top.

Re: Trump’s Troubles
Harris is really unpopular.
They need a fresh face. A generic, working class (ish), democrat I think. Someone who is bland that people are happy is good enough so long as they are not Trump. Trump is very unpopular, they just need an excuse not to vote for him.
They need their own Starmer.
