My prediction for 2023 Is that Donald Trump failed former president gets indicted there are a number of ways that this could happen. There could be a federal indictment coming. There could be an indictment in New York coming. There could be an indictment in Georgia coming those are the three largest possibilities and most likely possibilities. I am not making any prediction as to whether Donald Trump will settle, will go to trial will be found guilty will serve time in prison. Actually, my prediction is he will not serve time in prison. But I do believe that during the 2023 calendar year Donald Trump is going to be indicted. Now the reality is that Trump could be indicted for so many different things, probably dozens of instances of interfering and obstructing with all sorts of different investigations during his first four years, you could make a case for sedition as part of Trump’s inciting and insurrection. You could make a case for significant criminality and Donald Trump acting in the state of Georgia to try to overturn the election results. Remember, Joe Biden won Georgia in 2020. Trump tried to steal it. He said I need 11,000 votes, give me a break, and acted and tried to strong arm people. There are so many possible crimes that Donald Trump has committed. And I believe at a certain point at the end of the day in 2023, it’s going to end with Donald Trump indicted, I do not yet know and some of the interesting questions are, how will this affect Trump’s 2024 Run? It’s been largely inactive. He’s mostly stayed home since announcing the candidacy in November. Polling is in the toilet, losing to Ron DeSantis. And many polls, Ron DeSantis, hasn’t even announced that he’s running for anything. And so it’s not looking particularly good. So there’s sort of two ways to think about this. If Trump is indicted, will it force him out? Or if Trump is indicted? will it provide an opportunity, a welcome opportunity for Donald Trump to bail on what is so far a completely failing 2020 for a campaign. That being said, I would advise my fellow liberals not to assume that Trump has no shot. Many assumed that in 2016, and we’re wrong. And it would be smart not to do that, because a lot can happen. A lot can change between now and 2024. In particular, Trump’s number one opponent, Ron DeSantis, is not actually running yet. And if indeed he decides not to run, that support is going to have to go somewhere else. And part of it may go to Trump and it might end up shaking out and looking kind of okay for him. So indictment watches happening. We’ll see if the campaign gets going. We’ll see what the scope of that campaign is. And also it’ll be important to see what happens within the Republican National Committee. Rhonda McDaniel is being challenged for RNC chair by Mike pillow, you know, the my pillow CEO and founder Michael and Dell. That’s a big pro Trump voice. We’ll have to see what happens there. So let’s see in a year, whether I ended up being vindicated or if this is yet another one of my failed predictions. I’ve had some bad predictions in the past. And we will continue to follow all of it very closely.

Future of GOP will be determined in 2024 election
Former President Donald Trump delivered surprise victories in 2016, both in the Republican primaries and in the U.S. presidential election. Since then, however, some on the Right have blamed him for the GOP’s losses in 2018, 2020, and 2022, as well as for deepening the divide within the Republican Party between the far-right and center-right… -
Trump’s terrible tariff plan will raise prices for US consumers
Former President Donald Trump has described tariffs as “the greatest thing ever” and claimed that imposing large tariffs on foreign goods entering the U.S. is essential for the economy to thrive. He believes tariffs will create more factory jobs, reduce the federal deficit, lower food prices, and enable the government to subsidize childcare. In contrast,… -
GOP should look in a mirror to address violent extremism
Republican nominee for president Donald Trump has so far survived at least three suspected assassination plots, including two from American citizens and one from an Iranian operative. Some Republicans responded to these threats by accusing Democrats and left-leaning media outlets of fueling them through their coverage of the former president, although Trump himself has been… -

Even if Trump pulls resources, your vote still matters
With less than 60 days until the election, both the Republican and Democratic presidential campaigns are focused on allocating resources to key states. In the battleground state of North Carolina, where Trump won by just 1.4 percentage points in 2020, Vice President Harris’ campaign is making investments, and recent voter surveys show her and Trump…
