Donald J. Trump After the White House - Page 6
Story by Jacob MillerDonald Trump’s prolonged attempt to reverse his loss in the 2020 election reached its peak on a single, now-infamous day: Jan. 6.However, Trump’s legal team had envisioned an alternative scenario—one that would have prolonged the period of uncertainty caused by the Trump campaign’s efforts, stretching the process until Jan. 20, 2021, the Constitution’s firm deadline for the transfer of power. If their plan had succeeded, these lawyers hoped that Joe Biden would never assume office.The specifics of this plan are now being disclosed for the first time. They are derived from a collection of documents provided to Michigan prosecutors by Trump’s lawyer Kenneth Chesebro, which includes thousands of pages of emails exchanged among Trump’s legal team, some of which contain previously unpublished information.Trump’s lawyer Chesebro developed strategies to create confusion and disorder by exploiting the procedures outlined in the Electoral Count Act (ECA), which governs the Congressional certification process. Specifically, he devised multiple methods to undermine the ECA, the legislation that outlines the steps for Congress to certify the election on Jan. 6. Crucially, the law imposes strict constraints on the duration of individual lawmakers’ debates over contested electoral votes—changing or extending these limits, set at five minutes per member and two hours in total, could extend Jan. 6 indefinitely.
By Kevin Liptak and Michael Williams, CNNWashington CNN — President Joe Biden on Tuesday slammed Donald Trump after the former president said he would encourage Russia to invade countries that don’t meet their NATO obligations, saying such comments amount to bowing down to Vladimir Putin.The remarks – Biden’s latest criticism of Trump from the White House – are some of his harshest criticism of his likely rival on foreign policy to date.Speaking Saturday at a rally in South Carolina, Trump said he would encourage Russia to do “whatever the hell they want” to any NATO member country that doesn’t meet spending guidelines on defense. Biden said those comments sent a “dangerous and shocking” signal.“Can you imagine a former president of the United States saying that?” Biden asked incredulously from the State Dining Room. “The whole world heard it. The worst thing is he means it.”Biden began his speech by encouraging the House of Representatives to “immediately” hold a vote on the Senate-passed, $95 billion supplemental aid package that would provide assistance to Ukraine, Israel and US partners in the Indo-Pacific region, as well as humanitarian assistance to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
Story by Sean O'DriscollThe Stormy Daniels case looks set to be the first Donald Trump indictment to go to trial, with a hearing set for this Thursday, February 15. Judge Juan Merchan will hold an omnibus hearing to consider a large number of housekeeping motions, including admissibility of evidence, scheduling and a motion by Trump's lawyers to dismiss the case. Once those matters are dealt with, the trial could begin as planned on March 25.The Stormy Daniels case appears to be the least well-known of the criminal cases Trump is facing. A survey for YouGov in January found 39 percent of American adults had heard a lot about it, 42 percent had heard a little, and 18 percent had heard nothing at all. This meant the case had the lowest recognition of those in the survey, which also included the federal election and January 6 case; the classified documents case; and the Georgia election case.
Story by Jimmy A.The Supreme Court was engrossed in discussions on Thursday on the matter of whether Donald Trump could be excluded from the 2024 presidential race by states citing a breach of the 14th Amendment, which bars insurrectionists from office.Enforcement DoubtsDespite the serious implications, Chief Justice John Roberts hinted at the unlikelihood of enforcing such a “pretty daunting consequence” against the former president.Challenging Capitol RiotThe justices lightly touched upon the question of Trump’s role as an insurrectionist. Trump’s attorney, Jonathan Mitchell, firmly stated, “This was a riot. It was not an insurrection,” challenging the characterization of the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack.No Organized AttemptTrump’s legal defense earlier argued against labeling the event an insurrection, claiming it lacked the organized attempt to overthrow or resist the government.
Analysis by Nick Paton Walsh, CNNLondon CNN — Remarks by Donald Trump normally reverberate in an echo chamber of his own creation, a sort of vacuum that often strips them of any consequence globally. It is white noise, one might think – rhetoric designed to project strength and the rejection of the status-quo, rather than an expression of any actual policy. It is just Trump being Trump.But when the former president suggested on Saturday that he would let Russia do “whatever the hell they want” to any NATO member that doesn’t meet spending guidelines, the impact was acute.He recalled what he said was a conversation with a “large” NATO ally – it was unclear who he was referring to or when the conversation took place – which, according to his telling, had declined to spend the 2% recommended equivalent of their GDP on defense, but nevertheless wanted assurances from the US that they would be protected if Russia attacked. Trump said he would not give such an assurance, as the ally was “delinquent,” and Russian President Vladimir Putin should feel free to have his way.
By Adam Durbin | BBC NewsDonald Trump's suggestion the US would not protect Nato allies failing to spend enough on defence "undermines all of our security", the Western military alliance's chief has said.Jens Stoltenberg also suggested it put US and European troops at greater risk. The Republican said he had told allies he would "encourage" Russia to attack any Nato member that failed to meet the alliance's target of 2% of their GDP.Members of Nato commit to defend any nation in the bloc that gets attacked. President Joe Biden called Mr Trump's comments "appalling and dangerous", suggesting his predecessor intended to give Russian President Vladimir Putin "a green light for more war and violence".Addressing crowds during a rally in South Carolina on Saturday, Mr Trump said he had made his comments about Russia during a previous meeting of leaders of Nato countries. The former president recalled that the leader of a "big country" had presented a hypothetical situation in which he was not meeting his financial obligations within Nato and had come under attack from Moscow.
Sam MeredithFormer U.S. head of state and presidential candidate Donald Trump stoked the ire of U.S. lawmakers and international leaders, after remarking he would not protect NATO countries from Russian attacks if they lag on their membership payments.Speaking at a rally in South Carolina on Saturday, Trump said that, as president, he warned NATO allies that he “would encourage” Russia “to do whatever the hell they want” to a member country that didn’t meet its defense spending guidelines.Trump, who has a long history of criticizing the transatlantic military alliance, recounted a time when an unspecified president of a NATO member challenged him on his threat not to defend them from a potential Russian invasion if they failed to meet NATO’s target of spending at least 2% of their budget on the military.“You didn’t pay, you’re delinquent … No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. You got to pay. You got to pay your bills,” Trump said.
Trump has no right to criticize others, Trump is a deadbeat who does not his bills.Trump says he once told a NATO ally to pay its share or he’d ‘encourage’ Russia to do what it wantedBy JILL COLVINNEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump said that, as president, he warned NATO allies that he “would encourage” Russia “to do whatever the hell they want” to countries that are “delinquent” as the front-runner for the Republican nomination ramped up his attacks on foreign aid and long-standing international alliances. NATO’s leader said Trump’s words could undermine security and put American and European forces at risk.Speaking at a rally Saturday in Conway, South Carolina, Trump recounted a story he has told before about an unidentified NATO member who confronted him over his threat not to defend members who fail to meet the trans-Atlantic alliance’s defense spending targets.But this time, Trump went further, saying had told the member that he would, in fact, “encourage” Russia to do as it wishes in that case. “‘You didn’t pay? You’re delinquent?’” Trump recounted saying. “‘No I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. You gotta pay. You gotta pay your bills.’”
Story by By Devan Cole and Hannah Rabinowitz, CNNDonald Trump is not immune from prosecution for alleged crimes he committed during his presidency to reverse the 2020 election results, a federal appeals court said Tuesday.The ruling is a major blow to Trump’s key defense thus far in the federal election subversion case brought against him by special counsel Jack Smith. The former president had argued that the conduct Smith charged him over was part of his official duties as president and therefore shield him from criminal liability.“For the purpose of this criminal case, former President Trump has become citizen Trump, with all of the defenses of any other criminal defendant. But any executive immunity that may have protected him while he served as President no longer protects him against this prosecution,” the court wrote.The ruling from the three-judge panel was unanimous. The three-judge panel who issued the ruling Tuesday includes two judges, J. Michelle Childs and Florence Pan, who were appointed by Joe Biden and one, Karen LeCraft Henderson, who was appointed by George H.W. Bush.
Story by Corinne RameyA federal jury ordered Donald Trump to pay more than $83 million in damages for defaming writer E. Jean Carroll, handing the former president a financial and legal blow just as he moves closer to cementing the Republican nomination for November’s presidential election.The award by the Manhattan jury came after a trial in which Carroll accused Trump of shattering her reputation while he was president by denying her claims of sexual assault. The new award dwarfs the $5 million that a different federal jury awarded to Carroll last year after finding Trump liable for sexually assaulting her in the 1990s and then defaming her when he denied it in 2022.
Story by David McAfeeThe same day Donald Trump was hit with a massive defamation verdict in E. Jean Carroll's defamation case, it was reported that the ex-president could be sued on behalf of Rudy Giuliani in connection with the former mayor's bankruptcy.A bankruptcy court filing dated Friday shows that "possible claim for unpaid legal fees against Donald J. Trump" was written when the form specific information on contingent claims.
Story by Carl GibsonA Russian businessman based in South Florida may have made millions off of insider trading in a scheme involving the parent company of former President Donald Trump's Truth Social platform.The Miami Herald reported Wednesday that investor Anton Postolnikov — the nephew of a former staffer to Russian President Vladimir Putin — is mentioned in court documents from a 2023 New York securities fraud case prosecutors brought against three men from South Florida. Gerald and Michael Shvartsman, along with accomplice Bruce Garelick, allegedly pocketed $23 million from insider trading involving a 2021 merger between Trump Media and Technology Group and the Miami, Florida-based Digital World Acquisition Corp.Garelick and the Shvartsman brothers are accused of sharing non-public information with friends and colleagues in order to maximize their gains from the deal. Documents show Postolnikov loaned $8 million to Trump's company through a Caribbean bank he owns that frequently works with the pornography industry.
Story by Riya PeterNEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Attorney Joe Tacopina, who represented Donald Trump until last week, stated that his former client is very likely to be convicted by special counsel Jack Smith.In an interview with MSNBC's Al Sharpton on Saturday, January 20, Tacopina discussed the former President's ongoing legal struggles, including the defamation trial by E Jean Carroll and the criminal case in Fulton County, Georgia.When asked whether Trump will be convicted in light of the seriousness of the two federal cases, Tacopina said, "Absolutely. You have a jury of twelve who is ultimately going to decide this. Jack Smith is a federal prosecutor who I knew from his days in Brooklyn. They're serious prosecutors."He further added about the possibility of his ex-client facing trials in unfriendly territories. "You can't say there's no way he will get convicted, there is no way he will be sentenced," the attorney continued. According to him, the interview was Tacopina's first and only discussion on the topic after leaving Trump's legal team on January 15.
Story by Milla J.A federal appeals court in Manhattan, New York, once again denied a request by former President Trump to revisit his presidential immunity in a civil defamation case brought by E. Jean Carroll.Trump’s immunity defense deniedIn the latest ruling, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan declined to hear Trump’s “immunity” defense claims, leaving his legal team with one option: to appeal to the Supreme Court.A single-page rulingThe ruling was presented on one page, just like last month when Trump’s defense submitted the same request.
Prof: Trump “demonstrated a criminal intent" to collaborate with insurrectionists at “expense of the Constitution"By Areeba ShahFormer President Donald Trump refused to help stop the violent attack on the U.S. Capitol and instead watched TV from the White House, according to previously undisclosed details that special counsel Jack Smith's team uncovered as part of its Jan. 6 probe, ABC News reported.A significant portion of the information in the report comes from interviews with Dan Scavino, Trump's former deputy chief of staff and current senior adviser to his reelection campaign. Scavino, who refused to cooperate with the House select committee's probe on Jan. 6, citing executive privilege, had his claims rejected by a judge last year and was informed he had to comply with a grand jury subpoena. Essential parts of his testimony were disclosed to ABC News.
Story by Ed MazzaA Republican political action committee opposed to Donald Trump is taking its message straight to some of the former president’s most loyal supporters with a new spot airing on Fox News this week.The video from Republican Accountability PAC features Trump’s own words as he egged on the mob in Washington D.C. on Jan. 6, 2021, shortly before they attacked the U.S. Capitol and tried to block the certification of the 2020 election.“Trump did this,” the ad states over footage of the assault. “He’ll do it again. He can never be president again.” The spot also includes clips of Republican figures such as Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) blaming Trump for the events of Jan. 6.
By Ed MazzaCritics are calling out Donald Trump for saying he’s hoping for an economic crash this year. Stocks are surging, unemployment is near historic lows and the nation appears to have avoided a predicted recession. Yet Trump claimed on Monday that the economy is “fragile” and running on “fumes” as he warned of a crash.“And when there’s a crash, I hope it’s gonna be during this next 12 months, because I don’t wanna be Herbert Hoover,” Trump told Lindell TV host Lou Dobbs . “The one president I just don’t want to be, Herbert Hoover.” Hoover was president during the 1929 stock market crash, which plunged the nation into the Great Depression. Speaking on MSNBC, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Trump may need “an intervention” from his family.
By Mike BediganDonald Trump Jr was subject to a community notice on social media after failing to include his father’s name in a reshared article about associates of late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein .Mr Trump Jr shared an article from The New York Post on X on Monday, which reported on claims that compromising sex tapes were made by the disgraced financier.The article’s headline noted that former presidents Trump and Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew and British business magnate Richard Branson, were named in the latest batch of unsealed court documents.Sharing a link to the article, Mr Trump Jr wrote: “This seems like a big deal and if true why has nothing been done about it?
Using SEAL Team Six to assassinate Trump’s political rivals is taking weaponizing of the government to a another level entirely.Story by ssheth@businessinsider.com (Sonam Sheth)Former President Donald Trump's attorney on Tuesday argued that a president can order the assassination of his political rival and can't be prosecuted for it — unless he's impeached and convicted by Congress first.Trump's lawyer made the argument in a contentious appeals court hearing Tuesday in the special counsel Jack Smith's election-interference case against the former president.Trump's legal team has repeatedly argued that the ex-president has "absolute immunity" from criminal prosecution related to his acts while in office (a claim many legal experts reject).But Judge Florence Pan, one of three judges on the Washington, DC, appeals court panel, tested that argument at length when she posed a series of hypotheticals to Trump's lawyer, D. John Sauer.
Story by Lee MoranFormer U.S. attorney Harry Litman explained why newly-emerged testimony, including from former Donald Trump White House deputy chief of staff for communications Dan Scavino, is the “final nail in the coffin” that proves the then-president had no intention of calling off his supporters during their attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.Trump “was just not interested” in halting the violence, Scavino told special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into Trump’s efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss to President Joe Biden and Trump’s role in the insurrection, per a new report from ABC News on Sunday.“If you think of it through the vantage point of the prosecution, the one thing that Trump could maybe try through surrogates to claim at trial is, ‘It took him by surprise. He never knew this would happen,’” Litman, who is now an analyst for MSNBC, said on Monday.
Does this mean Trump will attempt another coup?Story by Rachel DobkinFormer President Donald Trump has refused to sign an optional oath that he will not "advocate the overthrow of the government" ahead of the 2024 election, according to an analysis from radio station WBEZ and the Chicago Sun-Times on Saturday.Trump is the current frontrunner in the 2024 GOP presidential primary, and since his 2016 successful run, the former president has maintained a loyal base known as MAGA from his campaign slogan, Make America Great Again.During Trump's bid for president in 2016 and again in 2020, the MAGA leader signed a loyalty oath document and submitted it to Illinois election authorities. However, this time around, Trump did not sign the document. The oath, which political candidates in Illinois have been signing for over 50 years comes from a Cold-Era law that was made non-mandatory in the 1970s.The oath, which is a pledge of allegiance to the U.S. government and state of Illinois, is not required, but it is a tradition when presidential candidates turn in their nominating petitions to the Illinois State Board of Elections for the state's primary held on March 19.In part of the oath, candidates declare that they are not communists nor affiliated with communist organizations and in another part, which is more applicable to today, candidates swear that they "do not directly or indirectly teach or advocate the overthrow of the government of the United States or of this state or any unlawful change in the form of the governments thereof by force or any unlawful means."
Story by Ewan PalmerCriticism over the $2 billion investment Jared Kushner's firm received from Saudi Arabia has reemerged in the wake of a report alleging that his father-in-law, Donald Trump's businesses received millions in foreign payments while he was in office.Congressman Robert Garcia was one of those who accused Kushner, a former White House advisor who is married to Trump's daughter Ivanka Trump, of carrying out a "grift" by accepting a $2 billion investment from a fund led by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for his private equity fund, Affinity Partners, six months after he left his White House role in January 2021.The investment has frequently raised concerns that the deal amounted to an improper quid pro quo.Garcia, a Democrat from California, brought up the Saudi investment while discussing on MSNBC a report from Democrats on the House Oversight Committee. The report alleged that four businesses owned by Trump received around $7.8 million in payments from foreign governments and officials in 20 countries, including China, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, during his administration.
Story by By MARK SHERMAN and NICHOLAS RICCARDI, Associated PressWASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court said Friday it will decide whether former President Donald Trump can be kept off the ballot because of his efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss, inserting the court squarely in the 2024 presidential campaign.The justices acknowledged the need to reach a decision quickly, as voters will soon begin casting presidential primary ballots across the country. The court agreed to take up Trump's appeal of a case from Colorado stemming from his role in the events that culminated in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Story by By Erica OrdenNEW YORK — When Donald Trump’s civil fraud trial began in October, he was facing potential penalties of up to $250 million. Now, with the trial about to wrap up, New York’s attorney general wants to tack on an extra $120 million.Attorney General Tish James’ office on Friday asked the judge overseeing the case to fine Trump and his business empire $370 million plus interest, saying the evidence introduced during the two-and-a-half month trial justifies increasing the penalties that James initially sought.James’ office sought to prove during the trial that Trump exaggerated the value of his assets — and inflated his net worth — to obtain favorable terms from banks and insurers, and in a court filing on Friday, she said it was the money saved by those terms that dictated the largest portion of the penalty requested by her office.
Story by Sarah K. BurrisThe House Oversight and Reform Committee, under Rep. James Comer's (R-KY) leadership, has searched through the finances of President Joe Biden and the rest of his family looking for incriminating links to foreign entities.Now it turns out it was Donald Trump who had international business dealings while sitting in the White House, according to a report released by Democrats on the committee.Speaking to MSNBC from the Capitol, correspondent Ryan Nobles explained that the new Oversight Committee report Democrats began work on two years ago unveiled at least $8 million in funds from foreign governments and bodies funneled to Trump while he was president."It's a 156-page exhaustive report that details only two years of the Donald Trump presidency, in which they outline millions of dollars in payments that flowed directly from foreign governments into the various businesses that were controlled by Donald Trump and his associates," said Nobles.
MSNBCNew video evidence shows Trump adviser Roger Stone – convicted in the Mueller probe and later pardoned by Trump – recounting that he told Trump to use a federal law to deploy the military before the election. Trump did not follow that advice, but a new documentary, “A Storm Foretold,” tracks Stone’s actions around January 6, and MSNBC’s Ari Melber reports on the developments, along with director Christoffer Guldbrand.
Story by Claire O'HareDonald Trump, known for distancing himself from controversial figures and movements, has claimed ignorance on various historical and political matters, including Adolf Hitler’s rhetoric, David Duke’s endorsement, QAnon, and the Proud Boys.Despite participating in Holocaust memorial events and growing up in a city with a large Jewish population, Trump has repeatedly stated he has no knowledge of Hitler’s speeches or Mein Kampf. “I never knew that Hitler said it,” Trump said.“I know nothing about Hitler,” he added. “I have no idea what Hitler said other than (what) I’ve seen on the news. And that’s a very, entirely different thing than what I’m saying.” His use of rhetoric similar to Hitler’s has drawn criticism, with Trump insisting his message is different and not racially motivated.
by Rebecca BeitschFormer President Trump took in at least $7.8 million from foreign entities in 20 countries, according to a new report from Democrats on the House Oversight Committee, payments to his various businesses that critics say could violate a constitutional prohibition on accepting funding from foreign governments.The volume of foreign payments during Trump’s presidency — the majority coming from China — is detailed in one of the most exhaustive reviews of Trump’s business dealings with foreign governments while in office.Democrats cautioned the total figure is likely larger, and they blasted GOP leadership they’ve accused of releasing Trump’s accounting firm Mazars from turning over requested documents just four months after a years-long legal battle forced it to comply with a congressional subpoena.
Story by Mark GrayDonald Trump has issues in the state of Colorado.On Dec. 19, the Colorado Supreme Court ruled that the likely Republican presidential nominee is ineligible for office because of the 14th Amendment's "insurrectionist ban." In a 4-3 ruling, the state court found that the former POTUS "engaged in" an insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021, at the U.S. Capitol. Further, the court said Trump's speech to his supporters that day is "not protected by the First Amendment" due to his "inciting the crowd."After the ruling, Trump -- who's said he will appeal to the United States Supreme Court -- took to social media to call it a "sad day in America." Amid a fundraising plea, he added, "What a shame for our country!!!"While Trump and nearly all Republicans are blaming Democrats for the ban, the truth is actually vastly different. In September, a group of Republican and no-party-affiliation voters filed the lawsuit to block the former president from the 2024 Republican primary ballot in Colorado.
Story by Steve BenenOn Christmas Eve, Donald Trump used his social media platform to peddle a familiar line of attack. Targeting the bipartisan Jan. 6 committee, the former president repeated his absurd claims that the House select panel “destroyed all of the evidence” it used to prepare its report, which the Republican characterized as “illegal.”Like too much of the GOP candidate’s rhetoric, the Christmas Eve complaints were delusional. Nevertheless, on New Year’s Day, Trump returned to the subject, narrowing his focus to former House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney, whom he accused of “illegally deleting and destroying” Jan. 6 evidence. “THIS ACT OF EXTREME SABOTAGE MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR MY LAWYERS TO PROPERLY PREPARE FOR, AND PRESENT, A PROPER DEFENSE OF THEIR CLIENT, ME,” he wrote.
Opinion by Ken BlockCan a steady diet of lies and innuendo overcome the truth?In November 2020, former President Donald Trump asserted that voter fraud had altered the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. The day after the election, his campaign hired an expert in voter data to attempt to prove Trump’s allegations and put him back in the White House.I am the expert who was hired by the Trump campaign.The findings of my company’s in-depth analysis are detailed in the depositions taken by the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol. The transcripts show that the campaign found no evidence of voter fraud sufficient to change the outcome of any election. That message was communicated directly to White House chief of staff Mark Meadows.Our findings have also been subpoenaed by special counsel Jack Smith’s federal investigation and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ investigation in Georgia. Those emails and documents show that the voter data available to the campaign contained no evidence of large-scale voter fraud based on data mining and fraud analytics.More important, claims of voter fraud made by others were verified as false, including proof of why those claims were disproven.
Story by Nouman RasoolFormer President Donald Trump is embroiled in a new legal battle, this time over accusations that he misled investors in a failed video phone venture. This lesser-known civil case, which arises from a 2018 lawsuit, is set to commence on January 29, as reported by Newsweek.The lawsuit contends that Trump, leveraging his fame and media influence, endorsed a video phone product by ACN, a company that found itself quickly overshadowed by the rapid advancement of smartphone technology. According to the lawsuit, Trump received millions for promoting the ACN video phone, often using his popular TV show, "Celebrity Apprentice," as a platform.However, it is alleged that he failed to disclose his financial ties with ACN. The plaintiffs argue that Trump falsely assured investors of the product's profitability, claiming it generated revenues of "half-a-billion dollars" annually.Newsweek's coverage of the lawsuit cites specific allegations against Trump: "Trump also told investors that he had 'experienced the opportunity' and 'done a lot of research,' and that his endorsement was 'not for any money.'Not a word of this was true”.
M.L. NestelDonald Trump's efforts to arouse hate and undermine elections make him the worst president in U.S. history, according to a Washington Post columnist.Jennifer Rubin, a self-described ex-conservative, writes that the 45th president and his MAGA mantra pines to return to a golden age back in time."Wielding nostalgia for a bygone era — one that is invariably mischaracterized — is a favorite weapon for fascist movements (Make America Great Again), harking back to a time before their nation was “polluted” by malign forces," she writes.But Rubin contends too may are experiencing selective amnesia, propping up the good and erasing the bad of the 1950s, an era to which conservatives would like to see the nation return.
