Former President Donald Trump’s political operation said Thursday that it plans to deploy more than 100,000 attorneys and volunteers across battleground states to monitor — and potentially challenge — vote counting in November.
Doubt it - what 10,000 alina habbas ?

Remember he is speaking out of his shithole. Like any of lawyers would do anything for free. More than likely a bunch of redneck cult members / rogue lawmen / militia types / bumblebee colored proud boys / karens and mrs. Kravitz types.

He cant even round up bigly rally attendees .
Good news is this “ plan “ is now in the media and will be monitored.

No one should be afraid of these losers .

Still, never forget that he is a dominionist. He is in on a serious bid to undo our pluralistic and democratic principles.

It’s nice when a rat does a good thing. But his essential ratness is still there.

I like how all the Red State governors tried to scare them into thinking having to pee into a bottle was just the way we do things here in the south. More breaks would naturally drive the plant to some other low wage state. 73% said they would take their chances with more money and more pee breaks.

Agreed,still gives me creeps,at least shown balls defying Trump/MTG,I DIDN'T THINK THAT WAS POSSIBLE,aid to Ukraine was vital as the Ruskies have been gaining steam and Ukrainian morale needed a serious boost,have a feeling a robust Putin offensive is in store for the summer and Ukraine needs the means to blunt it.If this aid didn't come thru there was a real chance for irreversible Russian gains.Also Johnson's decision may cause infighting and MTG gets embarassed as a wind bag as she STILL hasn't acted upon her threats,let the games begin.

You think he would have got it when asking to tie border with it. A real presidencial candidate would have got it rather than cause months in delay.

Trump on Johnson’s handling of Ukraine vote: ‘You can’t really get too tough’ with slim majority
Former President Trump on Monday offered a defense of Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) amid blowback from conservatives over Johnson’s decision to bring additional aid for Ukraine and other national security priorities to the House floor for a vote over the weekend.

In his first comments since the national security funding package passed the House with bipartisan support Saturday, Trump told conservative radio host Chris Stigall that Johnson was in a difficult position because of the GOP’s exceedingly narrow majority.

“Remember, the Speakership we’re talking about has, you know, we’re a majority by one. One vote,” Trump said, citing the dwindling majority because of various lawmaker resignations.

“And you can’t really get too tough when — Look, we all want to be tough guys and all, and I have a lot of friends, and frankly I have friends on both sides,” Trump continued. “You know, if you look at the vote, a lot of Republicans, a lot of good Republicans, voted for it. But Mike is in there and he’s trying, and some people were disappointed, and a lot of people were very disappointed that nothing happened with the border. I’ll straighten out the border.”

The debate over whether to move forward with a series of bills to provide billions in aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, as well as provide humanitarian aid to those in the Middle East, split House Republicans and sparked calls from some Trump allies in the chamber for Johnson’s ouster as Speaker.

Johnson ultimately defied his conservative critics, pushing to the floor a series of four bills providing overseas assistance but detaching those funds from a separate border security bill, which failed on the floor during Saturday’s votes. He framed the aid as a simple but crucial continuation of America’s responsibility to democratic allies facing threats of their own.

The package, which more than 100 House Republicans voted against, included roughly $61 billion for Ukraine, $26 billion for Israel, $8 billion for allies in the Indo-Pacific, and a package of additional national security measures that features a potential ban on the popular TikTok app. The bills must still pass the Senate before going to President Biden’s desk.

Trump hosted Johnson at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida earlier this month and offered his support for the embattled Speaker, who is under fire from Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), a staunch ally of the former president.

Greene filed a motion to vacate against Johnson late last month, which Reps. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) and Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) endorsed last week. She has not yet said when she might trigger the motion, however.
