the republican party, former president trump took a break from courtum appearances to tak questions in a fox news town hall. in this n town hall he said absolutely nothing new. it was the same lies, same talking points, and essentially a rally with questions. let s be very clear, folks, the only normal aspect of tonight s debate was the presence of podiums. the candidates took the stage just after vocal trump critic, former new jersey governor chris christie suspended his campaign refusing to endorse any of his former opponents. in a normal world a re-election losing 91 felony counts facic, twice impeached front-runner who didn t show up to debate at anything would be a prime candidate prime target for any candidate hoping to take the lead, right? that s in normal times. but desantis and haley declined to focus on the elephant not in the room. instead they saved their most ruthless barbs for each other. we need to stand up for the people and not bow down to woke corporati
you should stay there and watch it. if you see bags of crap coming into the voting areas, you have to stop it. the legal path just took trump back to the truth, that i d won the election and he was a loser. we re going to win for the third time. i just don t want the results of the second. for me and kamala, our campaign is about america, about you. first, they say, sir, how do you do it? how do you wake up in the morning and put on your pants? look at the authoritarian leaders and dictators trump says he admired. president xi of china, strong, smart, tough. putin liked me. i got along. i got along withhussein. i will say, he hung that sucker and he spit in their face. you know, tough guy. when he visited the cemetery called dead soldiers suckers and losers. john mccain for some reason couldn t get his arm that. he goes after all we ve been through in our history, independence to civil war. the civil war was fascinating, so horrible. i was reading some
an extreme movement of america, the maga republicans led by a defeated president is trying to steal history now. they re trying to steal an election. now they re trying to steal history. we have an economy that s so fragile, and when there s a crash i hope it s going to be during this next 12 months. trump is expected to attend as a three-judge appeals court panel decides if he can be charged with election interference. and i feel that as a president you have to have immunity, very simple. the question is who s afraid of nikki haley. the answer is donald trump. that election trump lost it, biden won that election. i think what happened on january 6th was a terrible day, and i think president trump will have to answer for it. and that brings us to today, thursday, january 11th where donald trump is expected in a courtroom yet again. this time in a last ditch effort to save his business empire from the fallout of fraud. meanwhile, his two top republican rivals bat
They ve seen in stark relief there between joe biden, a pro-democracy politician, whether you support all of his views or not, and donald trump, a pro-authoritarian who praises rioters that beat the hell out of cops with american flags that our soldiers and sailors and marines and airmen have taken into battle for hundreds of years. he considers those people patriots. it s about as stark as it can be. absolutely. it is important to take a look at the very different messages from president biden and former president trump this past weekend and moving forward. it is a significant week in the presidential race as it intertwines with the legal charges against donald trump. today marks exactly one week until the iowa caucuses, and tomorrow, trump says he will attend an appeals court hearing
It intertwines. i would presume you re going to ask for business returns as well. is that do you think going to be easier or harder or a different process or what? i believe same process but we want to start with the personal returns and then move from there. so personal returns are the requests now. you re not yet requesting business returns? correct. we held a hearing today on hr-1 which is a bill that would make all future candidates for vice president and president provide those. we think it s important, again, for transparency. it s been the custom and the practice since nixon for folks to turn them over and again, president trump promised as a candidate that he would and he has not. it s more important to get this right than to do it hastily. we are taking it in a step by step approach. we want to do it correctly because if we botch this it can mean bad precedent moving forward so we want to make sure we re doing it the right way. it speaks highly of the irs,
