Trump... Are we being played? Freeper thoughts please.
Self | 7/17/2023 | Vanity

Posted on 07/18/2023 3:00:30 PM PDT by Dagny Muriel

As we all know, we live in a time of a 24 hour news cycle. If big news comes out, it will capture attention at best for 48 hours before it is replaced with the next big story. Many have pointed fingers at the timing of Trump being notified of him being the target of an investigation. Notibly, with the whistle blower testistomony Wednesday, the timing seems targeted to cause distraction. This is at least what we are being told. I find a few red flags with this narrative.

1. The testimony only became a big news headline Monday night. If the goal was to thwart this hearing becoming a headline, then the announcement would have been made publicly rather than left to Trump and would have been made after the transcribed testimony provided the dancing evidence rather than before.

2. Since when does trump wait 2 full days before he spouts off about something like this? If he was notified on Sunday, waiting for 2 days before saying a word seems very out of character for President Trump. He would have that statement ready to go Monday afternoon.

3. Keeping the above in mind, why would he be given the information on Sunday? If they wanted to detract from the hearing, knowing the short attention span of the Amarican people today, they would have given it to him Monday, hoping to dominate the media attention for 24-36 hours and straight past the hearing

4. This brings me back to Trumps break in usual pattern. Why, being admittedly very good with utilizing and manipulating the media and timing his publicity, would trump make a statement the day before such an important hearing? Why the sudden change in his behavior which is so perfectly timed? He is not dumb and outside of his knee jerk outbursts is very calculating.

Fellow freepers, looking at the behavioral patterns of all involved, I can only conclude:

A. Trump wishes to highlight the injustice, though I do not believe he is so niave to think anyone but his base will see anything except either "this gives biden a pass", "they are all corrupt", or that most won't even notice the hearing because the media loves a good trump show.

B. Trump wants to burry this hearing to control what his base takes away. Maybe something that Biden did, however small it may be, he knows might also be turned on him so he wants to turn attention elsewhere?

C. The deep state is deeper than we realize and trump is helping hide the cards until they decide if the people will vote him in the primary or they need to oust Biden to defeat an outsider...

I would love yalls thoughts. No matter what though, it smells like I just got off a shrimp boat!

This Dagny person acts like we won’t be able to see any clips of these hearings.

This is a total disingenuous vanity post to stir up trouble that does not exist.

Has the RDS stink on it.

Trump’s political party affiliation has changed numerous times. He registered as a Republican in Manhattan in 1987, switched to the Reform Party in 1999, the Democratic Party in 2001, and back to the Republican Party in 2009.

That doesn’t look like a life long democrat to me...typical misinformation dump.

He wants to maximize highlighting the the obvious two tiered justice system. One for the establishment, and one for everyone else.

I apologize that my post was not comprehensible for you. If you can elaborate on what you felt was incoherent, I will make my best attempt to clarify.

They have to give it to him first so they can blame him for leaking it. If they did it before giving it to them then they’d have illegally leaked grand jury testimony.

Trump stole their thunder.

“Trump is playing the martyr...”

If Trump is playing anything, it’s that of a pissed-off innocent man.

Where you see something wrong with this I see President Trump reciprocating with graciousness at the Clintons attending his inaugural luncheon. President Trump rose above petty partisanship for the good of the Country. To work for the good of the Country a statesman extends an olive branch.

“Hillary Clinton, the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee, was present at the Capitol for the inauguration of her former election rival, President-elect Donald Trump.

It’s customary for former presidents and first ladies to attend the inauguration of a new president. Clinton honored that tradition, arriving with her husband, former President Bill Clinton.

On Twitter, Clinton wrote she’s at the inauguration to “honor our democracy.”

Clinton may be making a statement with her outfit choice today, wearing white, the color of the suffragette movement.

The 2016 Democratic nominee wore white during key moments of the campaign, including when she gave her acceptance speech at the DNC in Philadelphia, becoming the first female nominee for president from a major U.S. political party.

The 2016 Democratic presidential nominee later attended President Donald Trump’s luncheon at the Capitol, where she shook hands with the 45th president.

This was the first contact the two rivals have had since trading jabs at the Alfred E. Smith Dinner held in New York City in October.

President Donald Trump made brief remarks at the luncheon and thanked the Clintons.

“I was very honored, very, very honored when I heard that President Bill Clinton and Secretary Hillary Clinton was coming today,” he said to the room, which filled with applause.

“There’s nothing more I can say because I have a lot of respect for those two people, so thank you all for being here,” Trump said.”

I actually do not like RDS. I supported him at first but I feel he is too insecure and now will be worse than trump for the independent vote (which is my main reason for not being 110% trump) my main concern, is trump putting ego and self above the good of awakening a larger majority. Is he trying to vindicate self or awaken our country? I am worried with the overreaching consequences. See earlier replies.

Ha. No one ever accused Ron DeSantis of playing 3D chess that we both know. Trump is still standing and running for President. That man has survived everything that Washington has thrown at him. That makes him a 4D chess player in my book. And I will be tuning in to watch Trump tonight in Iowa.

We’ve been played since 2020 election day and Biden installation day..

Trump’s had one job.
Keep the sheeple that support him from killing the Fedzilla and Statezilla that should be taking dirt naps because of a coup..

So far, Trump has succeeded in keeping millions of his supporters from going 1776 on King Brandon and his banana republic..

Are you kidding? Nobody was going to do anything like you posted. They saw Jan 6th and they are too intimidated to even do anything about the coup.

Trump is going to prison. Let that sink in......He is very smart and he knows this. He is scared and he doesn’t know quite how to handle it. I voted for him twice. Would love for him to be president. But they (the deep state) will not let that happen no matter what. It sucks..... But it’s true..

I am certain that we are being played. I’m equally certain that we’ve been played since the end of World War II. Probably worse then than now.
