It is not rhetorical "Kamala-Jitsu" slight of hand that makes it reasonable to regard Trump as if he is an incumbent. It is the facts of Trump's words and deeds since the 2020 election that make it possible to do so. Donald Trump has trampled upon our political traditions that have, until now, been followed by presidents who were voted out of office. At least in my lifetime, three of them, Ford, Carter and George H. W. Bush, conceded their respective elections and proudly participated in peaceful transitions of power by willingly handing over all the power and authority of the office to their successors. But not Donald Trump. All of them, as I remember, did not interfere with or attack the new President as he went about his work. But, again, not Donald Trump. Recently, Donald Trump scuttled a bill in Congress that would have addressed problems at our southern border. If he has such great authority, then he should answer for how he uses it. If Donald Trump denies that he was voted out and by so doing retains presidential power at least in the minds of his supporters and then actually wields that power to interfere with the operations our duly elected government, it is only reasonable that we regard him, when it suits our purposes, as if he is an incumbent.
I feel his behavior as a private citizen interfering with the legislation pending in our Capitol and State Houses is pretty treasonous. He should also be prosecuted under the Logan Act for his interference with Netanyahu and Putin (and who knows who else? Xi? Kim? Orban?). He is a menace and should be held accountable.
Correct, amigo. Also recently reported that he reached out to Netanyahu to tamper with US efforts to broker a deal. Plus he claimed to exert influence over hostages held by Putin.
Truly wrong to believe he has some right to damage American national interests just to suit his "big man" fantasies. Low character.
