Trump’s Latest Scheme May Have Crossed Legal Lines

Tuesday, August 20, 2024

Donald Trump is reportedly advising Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, which would be a violation of the Logan Act. He may not be in office, but Donald Trump has been speaking with the powers that be about Israel's war on Gaza"but it's not in an effort to end the genocide. Instead, Trump has allegedly been talking with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to avert a cease-fire deal, fearing that doing so could help Vice President Kamala Harris win in November, according to PBS.

He's likely offering extra missiles to Nuttyahoo to keep killing kids.

Just like he sank the GOP-written, and bi-partisan supported, border security law?

Yup.

It's a Republican thing.

Like Reagan and the Iranian arms for hostages scandal.

They made a deal with Reagan that the hostages should not be released until after Reagan became president.

On January 20, 1981 the hostages were released minutes after Ronald Reagan was inaugurated.

Just like when the melon felon publicly told Putin to hold onto the hostages until after the election.

He doesn't care about anyone about himself.

Now he is telling nuttyahoo to kill the deal because it will help him politically.

He doesn't care if the hostages get killed...all that matters is himself.

What a ------- piece of ----.

Just like when he told the GOP to kill the BIPARTISAN border deal because it would help him polically.

He only cares about himself.

Period.

This is a blatant violation of the Logan Act, and DOJ should be jumping on this NOW. To hell with DOJ policy regarding legal action around election time this violation of the Logan Act is also Election Interference. Lock Him Up!
