Nice overview from VDH of the multiple lawfare attacks against Trump and how all of them are simultaneously going nowhere.

“Moreover, had Trump not run for the presidency, or had he been of the same party as most of the four prosecutors, he would have never been indicted by any of them.”

I have been saying that all along.

Which is why the left are now resorting to over-the-tep hysteria, claiming g that Trump is gonna go on an unhinged rampage the second he gets sworn in. The left are hoping that their low info, low iq base will fall for the hysteria

VDH has such a knack of putting into writing that which all of us realize and understand but lack the wordsmith skills to express so succinctly.

The problem is that the leftists have burned to the ground whatever credibility remained of the legal system. That is how they roll... the end justifies the means... and they hate Trump so much that they are willing to bend or break the law to achieve their goals. Scorched earth. The 2020 election is a perfect example of this.

Your average American, me included, used to believe that the legal system was fair and just. We were fools, apparently.

Yet now they are in a doom loop of discovering

Doom Loop: Definition, Causes, and Examples
By NEAL MCGRATH

What Is a Doom Loop?

A doom loop describes a situation in which one negative action or factor triggers another, which in turn triggers another negative action or causes the first negative factor to worsen, continuing the cycle. It is equivalent to a vicious cycle in which a downward trend becomes self-reinforcing. The term was popularized in the 2001 management book Good to Great by Jim Collins.

In economics, a doom loop describes a situation in which one negative economic condition creates a second negative condition, which in turn creates a third negative condition or reinforces the first, resulting in a self-reinforcing downward spiral.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Doom loop describes a scenario in which one negative factor creates another negative factor, which in turn worsens the first or creates a third, similar to a vicious cycle.
Excess government debt can trigger an economic doom loop, as happened in Greece in 2010.
1

A weak banking system (or one overexposed to risk) can also trigger a doom loop, as happened in the 2008 global financial crisis.

Intervention in the form of a bailout is usually needed to break a doom loop.


doom loop seems to be the word of the day. look for it.

It will be interesting the counter suits by Trump against this crowd and how many billions he will ask in court.

That post makes zero cents. The left orchestrated these attacks to generate sympathy for Trump?

“Doom loop” I think it used to be called ‘collapse’.

Today is the Iowa vote. Trump will dominate.

The criminal cases against Trump are stuck, and now the election is active.

Trump has the momentum.

66 cents these days ... or buy the Chinese knock-offs sold all over the internet for 29 cents.

Does Xao Baiden get a kickback on these? Is that why the USPS OIG makes no effort to stop the counterfeits?

When leftists say “democracy” think “lynch-mob” rather than “political process”.

It’s not likely you will get a sane response from joesbucks.

All it takes is one corrupt judge to convict Trump. Even if the conviction is overturned, stupid voters won’t be told. That conviction will appear in ad after ad for months.

There is no law fare taking place. What’s taking place is the rule of law. The claims of law fare are a diversion.

Trump May indeed prevail. Or maybe the prosecutors.

Trump could get out on the WH lawn, drop his pants, and take a big fat FJB on the grass and I’d still vote for him. Money, advertising, Democrat lies aren’t going to change that - for a lot of us.
