That if any voter, if any delegate, doesn't support Donald Trump, then he's just going to bully him and threaten him. I don't know if the next thing we're going to see is voters or delegates waking up with horse's heads in their bed, but that doesn't belong in the electoral process. And I think Donald needs to renounce this incitement of violence. He needs to stop asking his supporters at rallies to punch protestors in the face, and he needs to fire the people responsible. Senator Ted Cruz: He needs to denounce Manafort and Roger Stone and his campaign team that is encouraging violence, and he needs to stop doing it himself. When Donald Trump himself stands up and says, "If I'm not the nominee, there will be rioting in the streets.", well, you know what? Sol Wolinsky was laughing in his grave watching Donald Trump incite violence that has no business in our democracy.

We asked high-profile divorce attorneys to speculate on the prenup—and what a presidential breakup would look like. by CORYNNE CIRILLI JAN 12, 2018 PHILIP FRIEDMAN/STUDIO D (TORN PHOTOGRAPH); CHIP SOMODEVILLA/GETTY IMAGES (TRUMPS) avesdrop on a steakhouse lunch between divorce attorneys and you’re likely to hear them engaging in their current favorite sport: speculating on the marital arrangement between Donald E and Melania Trump. “We love talking about it,” one recently told me. “What’s in the prenup? Did it get renegotiated during the campaign, or after he won? How would a split play out?... It’s irresistible conversational fodder.” During his two previous divorces, Trump stuck mostly to the prenup; although Ivana Trump contested it, she reportedly got $14 million, a New York apartment, a Connecticut mansion, and Mar-a-Lago once a year, as well as $650,000 annually for alimony and child support. Marla Maples contested hers, too, and is said to have been awarded around $2 million. But now that the stakes are higher, we asked a few of the country’s top matrimonial lawyers for their take on what could happen if the rst couple were to split.

Poseidon ( ポセイドン , Poseidon ) is a god, the Area boss of Deep Kingdom, the Deep Sea Zone, as well as a member of the Ten Guardians. Contents. Personality [ edit | edit source ] He has a high strong personality and has a quick temper. He can be very straightforward and blunt towards others, not holding back his opinion of them. Appearance [ edit | edit source ] Poseidon looks like a little boy, but he is actually only slightly younger than the Demon King and, surprisingly, is the same age as Great Red Siberian. He has blue skin, indigo hair, and yellow eyes. He wears arm braces, a brown cloth for pants, and blue gold-accented boots. He is shirtless and wears a gold choker. Overview [ edit | edit source ] Poseidon is Hades's younger brother and the god of the sea. He is actually an extremely high-ranking god, but he is currently working for the Demon King due to certain circumstances. Poseidon gets along reasonably well with his elder brother Hades, but sometimes he realizes he takes after him, and that annoys him, which is why he kicks Hades every time they meet.

Stevenson, Acting General Counsel Office of the General Counsel 1050 First Street, NE Washington, D.C. 20463 RE: Additional Facts Relevant to MUR #7784 Dear Ms. Stevenson: The Campaign Legal Center (“CLC”) writes to supplement our July 28, 2020 complaint (assigned MUR #7784) against Donald J. Trump’s authorized campaign committee, Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. (I.D.: C00580100), and one of his authorized joint fundraising committees, Trump Make America Great Again Committee (I.D.: C00618371). CLC’s original complaint alleged that the Trump campaign and Trump Make America Great Again Committee violated 52 U.S.C. § 30104(b)(5) by laundering hundreds of millions of dollars of campaign spending through firms created and/or managed by senior Trump campaign officials—namely, American Made Media Consultants (“AMMC”) and Parscale Strategy. This activity continued after CLC’s original complaint. Over the course of the four- year presidential cycle, Trump’s committees routed $769 million through AMMC, based on reports filed to date.1 The Trump campaign and Trump Make America 1 Donald J.

  • September 18, 2018 Democracy Reform Task Force Rep
    � -.· ,.. ..7 1, . � � SEPTEMBER 18, 2018 DEMOCRACY REFORM TASK FORCE REP. JOHN SARBANES, CHAIR President Donald J. Trump campaigned on a promise to “drain the swamp” in Washington. He vowed that as President he would take steps to break the “cycle of corruption” and end “decades of special interest dealing,” 1 and he pledged to aggressively pursue meaningful reforms to improve transparency and accountability in government. 2 But President Trump has broken this promise to the American people. Specifically, the Trump Administration has: • Made a Mockery of Ethics Law and Regulation • Promoted a Culture of Secrecy in the Executive Branch • Stacked His Cabinet with Big Money Campaign Donors • Installed a Special-Interest Revolving Door into the Trump White House • Put Big Money Ahead of the Public Interest • Turned the Presidency into a Profit-Making Enterprise • Pursued Public Policy for Trump’s Personal Benefit • Raided the Treasury to Pay for Vacation & Private Business Promotion As President Trump marks his 600th day in office, this report – the sixth edition in the Democracy Reform Task Force’s series of “100 Ways” oversight reports – lists 600 ways that the Trump Administration has broken its campaign promises. Here are all of the examples. 1 Donald J. Trump Campaign. “Trump Pledged to Drain the Swamp and Impose Congressional Term Limits.” October 18, 2016. 2 Ibid President Trump’s “Ethics” Executive Order was supposed to “drain the swamp.” As this exhaustive list shows, the Executive Order was just another example of President Trump’s tendency to overpromise and underdeliver. We have continued to witness the Administration openly flouting ethics regulations and conflict-of-interest law to an unprecedented degree.
