Let us count all the ways ...

Bulwark Podcast Clip: April 30, 2024

Tim Miller and Simon Rosenberg provide the six biggest reasons Donald Trump is unlikely to win the presidency in November.

Here are most of the highlights (annotated for readability, from YouTube auto transcript):

Let's go through the six things that voters are about to find out about Donald Trump, that they didn't know about him in 2020, when he lost.

Number one is that he raped E. Gene Carroll in a department store dressing room number.

Two, that he oversaw one of the largest financial frauds in all of American History; has been fined half a billion dollars for it; and he and his two sons have been banned from doing large amounts of business in New York state.

Three is that he stole America's Secrets. He lied to the FBI about it. He shared those secrets with other people. It is without question the greatest betrayal of America by a former president.

Four is that he tried to overturn an election. He led an armed attack on the capital, and on one of the only days that all 435 members are there; and he's promised to end American democracy for all time, if he stumbles into the White House in January of 2025

Fifth is that he and his family have corruptly taken more money from foreign governments than any political family in the history of the country.

And six, the singularly responsible for ending Roe, and stripping the rights and freedoms away of more than half the population.

Any one of those six things are going to be difficult for him to overcome. I don't think he can overcome all six; and none of those things are contingent upon him getting convicted in a court of law.

These are all just facts on the ground. We know they happened.

And it's important that we start prosecuting our case against him with force, because the American people deserve to understand who they're voting for in this election, this Donald Trump.

This Donald Trump to me is far weaker; far more degraded. His performance on the stump is far more atrocious and disturbing than it's ever been. And he's a far more dangerous and extreme figure than he was.

We can't wait for Mueller. We can't wait for Jack Smith. We can't wait for the Supreme Court. WE got to go get this done.
