Donald Trump is our most indicted president ever, and it looks like he’s about to increase his lead!
The Menace of Mar-a-Lago recently received a so-called target letter in connection with the federal investigation into his efforts to overthrow the election on Jan. 6, he announced Tuesday. Target letters usually indicate that criminal charges are imminent.
Already this year, Trump has been indicted for his alleged brazen mishandling of classified docs and allegations he made hush money payments to Stormy Daniels during the 2016 campaign.
Georgia officials are also investigating his attempted interference in their 2020 presidential election.
No wonder why Ivanka and Melania can’t distance themselves from this mess fast enough. Trump’s Truth Social missive about his newest target letter is completely unhinged!

There have been signs in recent weeks that special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation is getting closer to the disgraced ex-president. Last week, it was reported that Jared Kushner spoke to prosecutors.
The special counsel’s office has also subpoenaed Ivanka, who testified last year in front of the January 6 House committee. (Ivanka spoke to committee members for eight hours, and helped “fill in a lot of gaps,” Rep. Bennie Thompson said at the time.)
Trump is reportedly upset about his eldest daughter’s cooperation with investigators.
Smith and his team are scrutinizing Trump’s conduct leading into Jan. 6, trying to pinpoint his involvement in multiple schemes to overturn the election, including the Capitol Insurrection.
Trump is the only person involved in the investigation to publicly say he’s received a target letter.
It’s been a brutal spring and summer for Trump’s legal fortunes. Up to this point, probably his lowest moment came when he was arraigned in Miami federal court…and hardly anyone showed up.
Neither Melania nor Ivanka issued public statements, either. Sad!
😂😂😂 The small amount of protestors at the Trump arrest & arraignment is pretty pathetic. I’ve been to backyard parties with more people in attendance than this pitiful little protest. pic.twitter.com/zGKMj6Fcmk

More people showed up to protest the closing of the Tasty in Harvard Square than have showed up to this Trump arraignment protest.

Despite Trump’s legal woes, he remains the clear front-runner in the GOP presidential race, and his lead keeps growing (meanwhile, Ron “Don’t Say Gay” DeSantis is falling further behind and cutting staff).
On Tuesday, House Majority leader Kevin McCarthy embarrassingly said Trump received his target letter because he “went up in the polls.”
…Or maybe it’s because he committed a lot of crimes? That seems more likely.

Helluva time to be sober. I had so promised myself a big margarita on Insurrection Indictment Day. Oh well. Still celebrating. Huzzah, everybody.

My day was looking gloomy, and then Jack Smith thrust the curtains of despair to each side to let the most glorious sunshine permeate my wretched heart. Thank you.

With all his shooting himself in the foot, his feet have to be killing him.
The Jan 6th indictment will most likely be the last straw for a bevy of republican Trump supporters.

His feet…..ew, now there’s a thought. He’s a bag of fat.

Relentless. Even after he’s imprisoned and Biden wins 2024 by a landslide, one dark and stormy night someone will discover a tiny, severed hand slowly crawling up Pennsylvania Avenue in DC – Failure 45’s desperate final bid to wrest control of the White House and destroy American democracy.

He TURNED DOWN Merrick Garland for the Supreme Court?! He wasn’t even president then! The man is a raving psychotic.

In his mind he still IS the president. Lot’s to unpack here…..

Istinka and Jared are grifting pieces of sh*t. Donald must be crapping his pants. I hope he gets horny Leroy for his cell mate.

They were and are willing to overthrow the decisions of Michigan’s voters and throw their lives away on behalf of the Orange Ogre. It’s stupid, frankly, but then so is the MAGA cult.

Trump, the traitor, is decompensating in real time. A fate the Donald richly deserves. He should be indicted for treason and pay the capital forfeit provided in our laws therefor.
