The Trump Dossier

Today, Jack Smith has released the heavily redacted version of the evidence against Trump. There will be no deal just yet. We will see if this information has an effect on his popularity. Regardless, he is in the race until election day, which is good for the GOP. Not so sure it is good for their congressional candidates,

Over the next few days or weeks, any information that may change the minds of voters will be highlighted by the media. Whether this changes the polls depends upon who is paying for the poll. GOP polls are mainly paid for by Trump. That practice has never won an election, although it may cast doubt on the result - or let Trump say so.

Trump cannot escape Rule 48A, which requires that the Court give permission for DOJ to drop the charges against Trump. Likewise, the 20th Amendment means that, even if Republican electors win, Trump cannot serve without 14th Amendment disqualifications being dealt with. Vance will be acting president if the relevant objection is allowed. Vance can also invoke the 25th Amendment as Trump declines.

Trump 2024 - Vance 2025.

Things could get very interesting.
