In the wild world of Donald Trump, the ex-president recently stole the spotlight in Derry, New Hampshire, giving a performance that had people bouncing between laughter and disbelief. According to The Associated Press, Trump’s rally was filled with his usual mix of bold statements and, well, let’s say, not-so-true facts.
First, he threw a curveball about his connection with lawyer Sidney Powell. Even though he’d admitted she was part of his legal team before, Trump now says, “Nope, she wasn’t.” And to top it off, he claimed he “was never indicted.” Hold up – he’s been indicted four times! In his words, “We did nothing wrong. It is all Biden’s stuff. I was never indicted. You practically never heard the word.”
The rally got even weirder when Trump told his supporters to keep an eye on other voters but casually dropped, “You don’t have to vote; don’t worry about voting. The voting, we got plenty of votes.” That’s not your typical democratic advice.
Then, Trump showed off his word skills, pointing out that “U.S.” and “us” have the exact spelling. He asked the crowd, “Did anyone ever think of that?” Classic Trump – going from deep thoughts to random observations in seconds.
Getting all mixed up, Trump praised Hungary’s prime minister but seemed to confuse him with Turkey’s president. No biggie for Trump, though – he called the guy “one of the strongest leaders anywhere in the world.” It’s like a geopolitical mix-up game at a Trump rally.
On immigration, Trump promised to keep out folks who “don’t like our religion,” forgetting that the First Amendment doesn’t pick a state religion in America.
And just when you thought it was over, Trump justified challenging the 2020 election by saying he doesn’t mind “being Nelson Mandela because I’m doing it for a reason.” That’s a head-scratcher.
This rally, packed with Trump’s usual bold talk and not-so-true statements, followed his claim that his Mar-a-Lago estate is the “most expensive house probably in the world” – a share that doesn’t check out.
But the Trump saga doesn’t stop with rallies and strange comments. In another story, exacting Solicitor General Neal Katyal predicts rough times for Trump in his Georgia election case. Two key players, Sidney Powell and Kenneth Chesebro, recently admitted to trying shady moves to flip the 2020 election. Katyal thinks more folks might spill the beans, leaving Trump alone.
Michael Cohen, a past lawyer for Donald Trump, spilled the beans, saying Trump told him to pump up the numbers on his assets. Cohen spilled this tea during a trial led by New York Attorney General Letitia James, who’s pointing fingers at Trump for beefing up his wealth.
Trump fired back, calling Cohen a “proven liar” and swearing he’s done nothing wrong. But Cohen, being a big player in this courtroom drama, holds a key role in how things play out.
The trial, led by New York’s legal boss, Letitia James, throws a bunch of accusations at Trump and his company. Think conspiracy, insurance fraud, and faking business records – it’s a legal buffet. The goal? To check out if the claims against the ex-president and his business hold water.
Now, Trump’s legal squad hit the brakes, asking for a timeout in the trial. Why? Blame it on the ongoing COVID-19 chaos. It’s a challenge juggling justice and health concerns in these wild times.
Seth Meyers, the funny guy from “Late Night,” adds his two cents, saying it’s bad news for Trump when a white-collar guy like Chesebro flips. Meyers jokes that Trump must be thinking, ‘Oh no,’ because when Giuliani’s in trouble, it’s all part of the plan, but a Harvard guy turning snitch? That’s a surprise.
Drama, confusion, and surprises are just part of the deal in Trump’s world. Whether you love him or not, one thing’s for sure – the Trump show isn’t done. Every rally, every legal twist, and every unexpected turn keeps us on our toes. So, get ready because Donald Trump remains the headline-grabbing force in the political arena, whether it’s bold claims, random observations, or surprising legal moves.
