One other day, one other deflecting rant from President Donald Trump. This time POTUS is looking out music Beyoncé and Oprah Winfrey for get this, publicly backing Vice President Kamala Harris.
For the document, what he’s alleging is just not a criminal offense and by no means has been.
Additionally for the document, there isn’t any proof that his allegations are even true.
However the president used his Fact Social platform over the weekend to accuse the 2 cultural powerhouses of accepting large funds from the Democratic Get together in change for endorsements, which he claimed needs to be grounds for authorized motion.
Trump wildly alleged that Beyoncé was paid almost $11 million to assist Harris, however stated the funding was a misfire. “She by no means sang, not one notice, and left the stage to a booing and offended viewers,” Trump posted. He additionally claimed that Oprah acquired $3 million below the guise of “bills” for her assist.
However wait, half of the nation’s favourite President didn’t cease there. He named Reverend Al Sharpton as properly, describing him as a “low-rated TV anchor” who was allegedly paid round $600,000 to rally behind Harris’ marketing campaign.
Ha. Sharpton, now. Now, who’s subsequent on the checklist? (Drake voice). Comical stuff, from POTUS not Drizzy.
“These ridiculous charges had been incorrectly said within the books and information,” Trump wrote. “You aren’t allowed to pay for an endorsement. It’s completely unlawful to take action. Are you able to think about what would occur if politicians began paying for folks to endorse them?” He ended the publish with a daring accusation: “Kamala, and all of people who acquired endorsement cash, broke the legislation. They need to all be prosecuted!”
Because the White Home stays targeted on its messaging, Trump has shifted his narrative towards voter frustration and get together division. He just lately claimed that many Republicans had been being “duped” by Democratic techniques and warned he didn’t need their votes. He labeled critics who demanded file transparency as “weaklings.”
So being clear is weak. Nicely, then the place’s the Epstein information. We’ll wait.
In case you missed it, earlier than Donald’s newest bizarre rant, Trump reignited previous rivalries with on-line jabs at Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Hillary Clinton, referencing the lingering controversy surrounding Russian interference within the 2016 election. In response to a latest report by the Wall Avenue Journal, Trump had been briefed in Could that his identify seems a number of instances in inside information tied to that investigation. When requested instantly if he had been notified, Trump denied any such briefing. A spokesperson dismissed the claims as simply extra “faux information.”
Right here’s the factor, we don’t know squat about some random alleged election look payoffs however we do know Epstein isn’t going away. Perhaps he ought to give attention to that.
