Donald Trump has threatened to run for office in 2024.
And now, Cher has offered her savage take.
And everyone is shocked by what she had to say.
Now, we are all well aware that Trump didn’t handle his election defeat too well.
From the moment Biden was confirmed as the winner on November 7th 2020, Trump went on a Twitter rampage.
Spreading lies about how the election was “stolen” from him.
And how Biden was nothing but a fraud.
Trump’s behavior online began to escalate to dangerous levels…
And the lies he was spreading to his followers ultimately caused the shocking scenes in Washington on January 6th, 2021.
After holding a “Save America” rally just a few miles away from the prestigious Capitol building, Trump encouraged his supporters to “take the election back” and “fight like hell”…
Which lead to thousands of them storming the Capitol and unleashing true havoc.
5 people, including 1 police officer, died on that day.
And hundreds of others were seriously injured.
People from all around the world were horrified by the violent scenes…
And thousands began calling on Trump to intervene and to tell his followers to back down… Which, of course, he refused to do along with refusing to take responsibility for the actions of the rioters.
This resulted in him being removed from Twitter and all other social media platforms for “inciting violence”…
Which led to Trump’s banning from many social media platforms.
Of course, we all know how much Trump loved running his mouth via social media…
So we can’t imagine how much of a kick in the teeth this must have been for him.
The seventy-five-year-old was clearly in a huge sulk over his social media dismissal…
And when the day of Biden’s inauguration arrived, Trump wasn’t present – making him the first U.S president in decades to not attend the inauguration of his successor.
So, it’s safe to say that in the world of U.S politics…
The past few years have been exhausting.
Now, although Trump is no longer the president, there are still some people that believe he should be.
Including Trump himself…
Trump is not giving up on the prospect of becoming president once more.
As he has repeatedly promised to return to The White House.
Trump promised to return to The White House while at the American Freedom Tour in Florida.
According to Business Insider, Trump claimed at the rally that he will take “back the House” and the Senate.
Addressing a crowd at the rally he said: “With the support of everyone in this room, we will take back the House, we will take back the Senate and we will take back our country, and then most importantly in 2024, we are going to take back our beautiful White House.”
“You had a president that always put America first. I will be back and we will be better and stronger than ever before.”
Trump reportedly also went on to, once again, falsely claim that he won the 2020 presidential election.
“We won twice,” he said. “We did much better the second time, and we may have to do it again.”
But Trump has been hit with a new controversy.
The Wall Street Journal published a story on January 12 2018, detailing Trump’s affair.
It occurred in 2006 after Stormy Daniels (whose real name is Stephanie Clifford) met Trump at a golf tournament in Lake Tahoe.
And there was an alleged $130,000 payment to the actress in October 2016 to keep her quiet during Trump’s campaign for the presidency.
Daniels knew “things about Trump that only someone who had seen him naked would know,” according to Slate.
Daniels copped to a completely consensual affair with Donald Trump.
She claimed to have evidence that would corroborate her story — phone numbers of Trump’s assistant and bodyguard, for example.
Slate spoke to three of Daniels’ friends, who all said they were aware of the affair at the time. But before Slate could finish thoroughly reporting the story, Daniels stopped cooperating, and the story remained incomplete.
According to CNN, Fox reporter Diana Falzone filed a story about an affair between Daniels and Trump in October 2016.
Unlike the trouble Slate had with corroborating the story, “Falzone had an on-the-record statement from Clifford’s manager at the time, Gina Rodriguez, confirming that her client had engaged in a sexual relationship with Trump…and Falzone had even seen emails about a settlement.”
Donald Trump seemed immune to the effects of scandals the likes of which would have absolutely demolished the careers of other politicians.
But it’s not the actual affair that everyone is focused on…
It’s the fact that Trump falsified business accounts to pay Daniels hush money that seems to have been his fateful mistake.
As he has recently been indicted by a Manhattan grand jury.
The former president will face 34 class E felonies for falsification of business records, as per Newsweek.
“If this report is correct, Trump will be arraigned tomorrow on 34 FELONIES. Each carries a possible prison term of 4 years. Bragg would not bring this case without strong evidence,” journalist Lisa Bloom wrote.
“Remember, this is the same DA’s office that recently convicted the Trump Org for criminal fraud.”
Bloom expects the 34 felony charges to reflect Trump’s repeated attempts to “cover up evidence of an underlying crime, in this case, the campaign nondisclosures.”
However, the vast majority of political pundits don’t expect Trump to serve any prison time over the indictment.
And, even more frighteningly, these charges brought against Trump will not discount him from running in the 2024 elections.
Michael Tappin, a United States expert and honorary fellow at Keele University, told Newsweek. “At the moment, Trump is still the favorite for the Republican nominees.”
There was then a development in the story.
Former President Donald Trump’s surrender at the Fulton County jail on Thursday has cast a spotlight on the legal labyrinth he faces in his fourth criminal case.
This time, the charges revolve around his alleged involvement in conspiring with others to overturn the results of the 2020 election he lost in Georgia.
While the concept of surrender might imply a voluntary action, all defendants in such cases are technically arrested during the process known as booking.
In this instance, Trump and his 18 co-defendants are accused of attempting to manipulate the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.
The booking process typically involves searches, medical screenings, fingerprinting, and the capture of a mug shot.
But a former president being booked is unprecedented.
The mug shot has emerged as a particularly contentious issue.
Trump’s legal team reached a bond agreement with Trump agreeing to post $200,000 as a condition of his release.
While custody is not expected due to the bond conditions, Trump’s history of communicating messages critical of those involved in investigations remains a concern.
As for court appearances, people booked in Fulton County typically appear before a magistrate judge within 72 hours.
While the trial date remains uncertain, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has suggested a potential trial start date of March 4, 2024.
However, legal experts deem this timeline unlikely due to the complexity of the case involving 19 defendants.
The charges against Trump are extensive, including racketeering, conspiracy, and filing false documents.
Each felony charge carries the potential for prison sentences ranging from one to 20 years, with the possibility of fines as well.
Each felony charge carries the potential for prison sentences ranging from one to 20 years, with the possibility of fines as well.
Trump vehemently denies the charges, labeling them as a “witch hunt” and asserting they amount to “election interference” targeting his 2024 campaign.
If convicted, Trump’s path to a pardon could be convoluted due to Georgia state law, which restricts governors from pardoning convicted felons.
This power rests with an independent board, and pardon applications can only be submitted after five years post-sentence completion.
Since his first indictment in April 2023, Trump’s supporters and critics alike have speculated about the possibility of a mug shot that could forever be etched in history.
And as Trump’s fourth legal ordeal unfolds, it’s finally happened.
His co-defendants, including his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani and others allegedly involved in the election scheme, have already been snapped.
However, the quality of lighting had resulted in less-than-flattering mug shots, leading many to be concerned about how Trump’s would come out.
Giuliani, Trump’s personal lawyer and former New York City mayor, has been charged with 13 counts including racketeering and conspiracy to commit impersonation of a public officer.
While other big names like Sidney Powell, Jenna Ellis, John Eastman, and Kenneth Cheseboro has also been mug-shotted.
But amidst the drama, Twitter is having a good laugh.
The site was the scene of everybody making the same joke about Trump’s mugshot …
They’re all pointing out he looks a little familiar …
“The MSM is sadly too scared to point out that Trump’s upside down mugshot looks like a sad Lorax,” one wrote.
Another joked: “Onceler: I will cut down these Truffula trees. The Lorax:“
While a third called it a “The Lorax a*s mugshot.”
Can you see the resemblance?
In response, Trump made a shock return to Twitter.
He’s tweeted an image of his mugshot with the four-word caption, “Election Interference! Never Surrender!”
“I almost got an ulcer the last time,” she told The Guardian. “If he gets in, who knows? This time I will leave!”
What do you think?
