For President Trump, just behind the remuneration as the guiding principle comes the projection: it is falsely projected on his enemies whose sins are guilty.
Trump, whose vision only seems to spread backwards, lately renewed his tired lies that the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections were Ambrado to Contro. While he is moving away, he is also openly trying to fix the mid -period elections 2026 for Congress by blatantly incorporating the Republicans again to draw the districts of the Congress. If you are successful, you could prevent the widely favored Democrats from capturing the control of the majority of the camera, as they did in half of the 2018 sections of their first mandate, and with it the power to block their agenda and investigate their obvious abuses of power.
But the president's rig goes beyond the elections, to all aspects of governance, if his cruel and chaotic mala administration can be called that.
Don't you like the weak job numbers of non -partisan bureaucrats in the Office of Labor Statistics? Shoot the woman in charge, slander her Because yes, “mating” the numbers on employment and inflation “make the Republicans and I see us badly” and seek to hire someone who by hook or criminal will actually manipulate the number to try to see better. As if experts from everywhere trust the economic data of the US quality will be fooled. Or even average Americans, who do not need BLS reports to conclude that food, housing and medical care costs are a source of stress, as 86% of them said in a public affairs research center by Associated Press/ NORC survey Launched on Monday.
Anger because federal judges rejected their former defending lawyer Alina Haba and other incompetent loyal ones as district prosecutors of the United States, as provided by law. Devise complicated End run to keep them in their place anyway, and that their assistants condemn the judges (including the appointed Republicans) and their “Left Agenda”. That position is especially rich when there was, Trump's election for the United States prosecutor for New Jersey, does not hide his own right -wing agenda: her goal, she, she, she said A right -wing podcaster is “New Jersey red.”
Do you want to impose punishment rates for US business partners, although the Constitution allows Congress to establish import tariffs? Take advantage of a law that gives the presidents emergency economic powers and Turn its definition of “emergency” beyond recognition or preceding. Forward and impose tariffs of 50% to Brazil, For exampleBecause he is carrying out a “witch hunt” (does it sound familiar?) Against the former president and Trump's ally Jair Bolsonaro. It is not as if the subordinate Republican Congress is going to object and claim its constitutional power.
But the courts could intervene. A Federal Court has failed against Trump on the issue of rates and an appeals court Last week he was hostile During the arguments in the previous two cases. Ultimately, however, the president's tariff power will be up Supreme Court always poorThat Trump and the Senate Republicans really did their favor during their first mandate.
Trump even deceives relatively small things (in addition to his Golf game). An exhibition at the National Museum of American History of Smithsonian about presidential dismissals naturally included Trump, the only president who advocated twice. But somehow any mention of him He was eliminated, leaving only presidents Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton and Richard Nixon, the last of which resigned before he could be accused. Presto! “Carrying the accusations as an unfortunate Kremlin Aparaatchik”, in The AtlanticWords.
Trump's rig is, of course, the most obvious, and the most hypocritical, in his shameless demand to invent Maps of Congress that could ensure that Republicans do not suffer the usual electoral losses of the middle of the period for the party in power.
He has already gotten with Texas, with his treasure of Republican votes and republican leaders. Allí, al mando de Trump, una sesión especial de la Legislatura estatal controlada por los republicanos, que se suponía que debía proporcionar alivio a las víctimas de los mapas del río Guadalupe del 4 de julio del 4 de julio y mitigando futuras tragedias de inundación, se ha convertido en un juego de poder partidista para volver a girar los mapas de la Congreso de Texas para que los republicanos que sean republicanos que sean Republicans five additional house seats next year.
But in the event that five seats are not enough to avoid a democratic acquisition of the United States Chamber, Trump and his team are pressing for a redistribution of sudden districts in Other red statesIncluding Missouri and Ohio, as well as Indiana, where vice president JD Vance is scheduled to visit on Thursday in his parallel role as deputy director of Trump's electoral elections. Such machinations have caused democrats, Directed by the governor of California Gavin Newsomto threaten the counter -irrigators in their blue states.
Gerrymandering is a ploy Almost so old like the nation. However, Skulduggery has traditionally been limited at once, after the decenal census that the Constitution requires so that states can re -draw their political maps to reflect population changes. Trump and the team have not even bothered to sweeten their extraordinary power capture from the middle of the decade: “We are entitled to five more seats,” the president ridiculously decreed Tuesday.
Trump and his political assistants prepared their scheme to manipulate the elections of the 2026 representatives Several months ago. In June, the White House assistants met with the Texas Republicans in Congress to urge a “ruthless” effort so that the State's districts return to work. According to the New York Times, the assistants warned, as if the Republicans need warnings for now, that the Vindictive Trump would pay close attention to who helped that effort and who not.
On Tuesday, Texas senator, John Cornyn, desperate for Trump's backing while looking for re -election, tried to show some Maga Muscle By asking The FBI to help locate and arrest the democratic state legislators who fled the State so that the Texas Chamber could not vote on the Republican Plan of Gerrymander.
Trump did not blink at the idea that their appointed federal agents after elected state officials who do not violate the law: “They may have to do it,” he said.
After all, he is the chief rig.
