Re: Governor Walz needs to do an "Arnie Vinick"[1] as regards his alleged lying

 

Dear Candidates,

Governor Walz needs to do an "Arnie Vinick" and similarly confront the Republican/Trump's issue of Walz's alleged lying as compared to the Republican Party / Trump's issues of lying/fraud. 

In the West Wing TV series' episode S07E12 Title "Duck and Cover" the Arnie Vinick character confronts a political issue late in the fictional presidential campaign by confronting it with an open-ended press conference where he stands in front of the issue, a proverbial "nuclear power plant", and takes ALL questions from the press to their exhaustion while also keeping the same rhetorical/reciprocal pressure on the Republican/Trump campaign LIES.

Governor Walz needs then propose and stand up to all questions from the press to their exhaustion as regards Walz's alleged lying v Republican/Trump's lying.

Governor Walz needs to admit he misspoke in regard to his August of 1989 China Trip with a group of Teenagers.  An enormous task I would be afraid of taking on during stable political times.  Governor Walz HEROICALLY took his students as planned on a "bake sale" financed LONG PLANNED trip to China in August of 1989(?) and not actually during the then recent past of the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre Apr 15, 1989 – June 4, 1989. 

I would bet the proverbial "house" that the Press just will not have any questions.  Walz needs to stand up at a place and at time as promised/premised. The Democrats then need to respond every day, to every assertion from the Republican Party and Trump up and down the ticket, "Please explain the following, here DOCUMENTED, Republican party and Trump 30,583 +/- lies?"

Governor Walz and the Democratic Party need to then ask, "How do the Republicans and or Trump have any issue with lying?"  When they have been flagrantly and unapologetically purporting lies since at least the "birther Issue" and including:

2.    Republican Party/Trump's legally unsustainable claims of "Lock Her Up" in 2016 election

3.    Republican Party/Trump's fraud Trump University Settlement,

4.    Republican Party/Trump's fraudulent allegation of an oversized inaugural crowed size v Obama's

5.    New York State's Hush Money convictions of Republican Party / Trump

6.    Russian Interference, collusion, an obstruction of justice as referenced in the Mueller Report of the Republican Party / Trump.

7.    "We the People" had two Democratic impeachments defeated by the Republican Party and Trump, i.e.:

a.    "Abuse of power, obstruction of Congress", Allegations that Trump unlawfully solicited Ukrainian authorities to influence the 2020 U.S. presidential election

b.    "Incitement of insurrection", Trump's conduct before and during the U.S. Capitol attack; Trump–Raffensperger phone call

8.    The Republican Party and Trump need to stop spewing the Big Lie[2] and provide PROOF.  The Republican Party and Trump have been SPEWING the Big Lie for tooooo long unchecked by the NEED for facts of the REAL WORLD.

9.    The Republicans and Trump need to explain the systemic LYING/fraud proven in the New York state civil conviction New York v. Trump et al. with $354.8 million of disgorgement of ill-gotten gains for financial fraud

10. The People of Springfield of Ohio v. Trump, Vance and the Republican Party[3]

11. Not to mention the Republican Party's and Trump's 30,573 lies in 4 years office as reported by the Washington Post[4].

12. Or the numerous "meritless legal arguments" of his legal appeals[5]

The Democratic party needs to stay on this task with the Republican Party / Trump Campaign up and down the ticket until the last vote is tallied November 5. 2024.

 

Enough said.

 

If there is anything further, please let me know.

"Time is of the essence"

Thank you in advance.

The MOST important LESSON LEARNED from the Trump Era


 

The MOST important LESSON LEARNED from the Trump Era

"We the People" have to "make lying wrong again!!!!"

 

I know this is jumping ahead some, there is still a possibility that Trump will come out and win November 5, 2024.  I do not want to jinx anything.  We need to GET OUT the VOTE November 5, 2024. 

I got to thinking "We the People" elected a president in 2016 that paid $25 million to settle a claim of fraud that had been pending for the entire multi-year election, i.e., "Donald Trump's fraudulent university[1]".  HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?  Should "We the People" tighten up our civil or criminal fraud statutes? 

Trump got elected with the assistance if not in a conspiracy with a foreign power, i.e., Russia/Putin.  Should "We the People" tighten up our election laws to better preclude foreign interference during and subsequent elections? 

"We the People" had the Mueller Investigation that laid out illegal Obstruction of Justice[2] for us.  Should "We the People" change if not enforce a prosecution of a president while in office or suspend the statute of limitations while in office?

"We the People" had two impeachments i.e.:

1.    "Abuse of power, obstruction of Congress", Allegations that Trump unlawfully solicited Ukrainian authorities to influence the 2020 U.S. presidential election

2.    "Incitement of insurrection", Trump's conduct before and during the U.S. Capitol attack; Trump–Raffensperger phone call

Should "We the People" tighten up the impeachment process and take politics out of it?

Since Trump left office, "We the People" have had criminal "Hush Money Case" in New York, and civil Financial Fraud case in New York where he was found criminally and civilly guilty, yet he claims immunity in both.  Should "We the People" tighten clear up the issue of immunity.  To accept Supreme Court precedent, you have to believe that "We the People" sub silentio[3] traded the "King can do no wrong" for the absolute immunity of the President, ever-present Judges, Prosecutors, Police and others?[4]

Add Jack Smith's January 6th [5] and Florida Documents case[6] - and as of July 2024, fake electors from Arizona, Georgia, Michigan and Nevada have been charged with crimes.  Should "We the People" clean up our electoral college?  Not to mention any issue with criminal culpability for the Presidential Records Act (PRA)?

Yes "We the People" need to do all those things. 

But to be honest those are all Band-Aids not fixes. 

To fix the problem of another Trump/Vance, "We the People" need to take up the issue of Public Corruption of Liars and Fear Mongers like the Springfield Ohio Citizens Natural born and green card holders (https://apnews.com/article/haitian-immigrants-springfield-charges-trump-vance-012af00a8677da5caed55d03e8779774).  Imagine if there had been a way to silence Trump's original lies and fear mongering of the "Birther Claims" not to mention his "Golden Escalator" claims of ubiquitous "Mexican drug dealers and rapist" coming this way. 

Trump's 30,573 lies in 4 years office as reported by the Washington Post. (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/01/24/trumps-false-or-misleading-claims-total-30573-over-four-years/ )

New York Attorney General Letitia James' office said the current Republican nominee's appeal is awash in "meritless legal arguments." (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/ny-state-urges-appeals-court-uphold-donald-trumps-nearly-500-million-c-rcna167756 )

"We the People" have to learn what every family if not every small town knows. 

"We the People" have to "make lying wrong again!!!!"

[3] sub silentio is a Latin phrase that means "under silence" or "in silence". It's often used in legal contexts to describe something that's implied but not explicitly stated. For example, a court might overrule a case's holding sub silentio without explicitly stating that it's doing so.  Briscoe v. LaHue,  460 U. S. 362
