Trump has amplified social media accounts that promote QAnon, which grew from the far-right fringes of the internet to become a fixture of mainstream Republican politics ... In his 2024 campaign, Trump has ramped up his combative rhetoric with talk of retribution against his enemies. He recently joked about the hammer attack on Paul Pelosi and suggested that retired Gen. Mark Milley, a former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman, should be executed for treason.(subscription required)
Trump has vowed more of the same in a second term. He's threatening to impose a 10% tariff on all imports — and a 60% tax on Chinese goods...Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics, warns that the consequences would be damaging. Trump's tariff plans, Zandi said, 'would spark higher inflation, reduce GDP and jobs and increase unemployment, all else equal.'
The family members initially struggled to arrange Trump's visit to the cemetery, according to a spokesperson for U.S. Rep. Mike McCaul, a Texas Republican who chairs the House Foreign Affairs Committee. The families had reached out to McCaul because the cemetery had been giving them "a hard time" about coordinating the ceremony with Trump, McCaul's spokesperson Leslie Shedd said Thursday.
The families said the Army would only allow the ceremony at a specific time that did not work for everyone's schedule, among other conditions, Shedd said. McCaul then reached out to House Speaker Mike Johnson for assistance and tracked the matter until it was resolved, Shedd said.
And his company is working for Trump's 2024 bid
Former President Trump and his allies have already signaled they will not accept the results of the election if they believe it's "unfair", reviving the type of rhetoric that helped incite the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
...a controversial idea known as 'unitary executive theory'
would enlist Elon Musk to run a 'government efficiency commission'
[Trump] tried to delegitimize the election results by disseminating a series of far fetched and evidence-free claims of fraud. Meanwhile, with a ring of close confidants, Trump conceived and implemented unprecedented schemes to – in his own words – "overturn" the election outcome. Among the results of this "Big Lie" campaign were the terrible events of January 6, 2021 – an inflection point in what we now understand was nothing less than an attempted coup.
Trump's policies could prove to be inflationary, other economists also warned, such as his proposal to create a 10% across-the-board tariff on all imports to deporting immigrants. The tariff plan would add $1,700 in annual costs for the typical U.S. household, essentially acting as an inflationary tax, according to experts at the Peterson Institute for International Economics.
Donald Trump hasn't said how he would approach climate change if he returns to the White House. But during his first term in office, he withdrew the United States from the Paris Agreement and regularly ridiculed the idea of man-made climate change.
Most politicians court voters by offering them an optimistic vision, peddling hope and promises of change. Democratic nominee Kamala Harris is seeking to sweep away Trump's somber picture of America in crisis by invoking joy and a new kind of "opportunity economy." Trump, however, mostly dishes out fear and threats.
The US Army issued a stark rebuke of former President Donald Trump's presidential campaign over the incident on Monday at Arlington National Cemetery, saying in a statement on Thursday that participants in the ceremony "were made aware of federal laws" regarding political activity at the cemetery, and "abruptly pushed aside" an employee of the cemetery. (...) The office of House Speaker Mike Johnson told CNN on Thursday that he'd "had to intervene to get former President Donald Trump into Arlington National Cemetery."
As with the Beer Hall Putsch, a would-be leader tried to take advantage of an already scheduled event (in Hitler's case, Kahr's speech; in Trump's, Congress's tallying of the electoral votes) to create a dramatic moment with himself at the center of attention, calling for bold action to upend the political order. Unlike Hitler's coup attempt, Trump already held top of office, so he was attempting to hold onto power, not seize it (the precise term for Trump's intended action is a 'self-coup' or 'autogolpe'). Thus, Trump was able to plan for the event well in advance, and with much greater control, including developing the legal arguments that could be used to justify rejecting the election's results.

Trump on Thursday said he had a speech 'rewritten by AI'
Vice President Kamala Harris is now formally the Democratic Party's 2024 presidential nominee.
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) announced the news on Monday, following the conclusion of a five-day virtual roll call of pledged delegates to the party's national convention, which kicks off in two weeks in Chicago.
"Republican voters see him as the inevitable nominee, and they're already falling in line," he added.
The town hall is part of the "Team Trump Agenda 47 Policy Tour." The tour coincides with Trump's efforts to distance himself from Project 2025, a conservative blueprint created by the Heritage Foundation, even as Democrats continue to point out his connections to the plan.
[Includes video]
The Trump campaign announced a Milwaukee, Wisconsin "Agenda 47 Policy Tour" event featuring Project 2025 contributor Monica Crowley. Trump's campaign has attempted to distance itself from the Project 2025's policy manual by emphasizing Trump's "Agenda 47" policies instead, yet his upcoming event using a Project 2025 contributor to promote his Agenda 47 policies continues to blur the line between Trump and Project 2025.
Donald Trump predicted he would face Kamala Harris, but he wasn't ready for the reality of an election reset that put him on his heels.
The former president is diluting his own message with scattershot attacks on the vice president and, for the first time in his political career, has struggled to stay at the center of national attention.
Trump himself has repeatedly shared AI-generated content on social media
Two members of Donald Trump's campaign staff had a verbal and physical altercation Monday with an official at Arlington National Cemetery where the former president participated in a wreath laying ceremony, NPR has learned. [UPDATED AUGUST 28, 2024 6:52 PM ET]
The two staffers, according to a source with knowledge of the incident, are deputy campaign manager Justin Caporale and Michel Picard, a member of Trump's advance team.
The framers included a requirement, in the Constitution itself, that public officials swear an oath of loyalty to the Constitution, a reminder to public employees that their deepest loyalty is to something greater than whoever occupies the White House or Congress.

Recently, however, his celebrations of the Capitol riot and those who took part in it have become more public as he has promoted a revisionist history of the attack and placed it at the heart of his 2024 presidential campaign ... Mr. Trump hasn't always embraced Jan. 6 — at least not openly ... Mr. Trump's embrace of Jan. 6 not only has meant describing the attack in which more than 100 police officers were injured as a "love fest". It also has led him to tell a journalist that he wanted to march to the Capitol that day but that his team had prevented him from doing so.(subscription required)
Mr. Trump's statement on social media after the interview did not rule out letting states impose their own restrictions. That leaves open the possibility that Mr. Trump could settle on a stance regarding birth control similar to what he recently settled on about abortion: that he would not support a federal ban, but that states should decide for themselves. When asked specifically about Mr. Trump's position on states limiting birth control, a spokesman for his campaign referred back to the post and did not comment further.
Mr. Trump has famously dismissed the overwhelming scientific evidence that the planet is heating as a result of the burning of oil, gas and coal as "a hoax". He is heavily courting the fossil fuel industry oil and gas industry, telling executives at one recent private dinner they should donate $1 billion to his campaign so he could retake the White House and reverse Mr. Biden's climate policies.(subscription required)
Fear-mongering, and demagoguing on the issue of immigrants, has been Mr. Trump's preferred speed since he announced his first candidacy for the presidency in June 2015, and he has often found a receptive audience for it.
Republicans are pushing legislation to crack down on voting by noncitizens, which happens rarely and is already illegal in federal elections, in a move that reinforces former President Donald J. Trump's efforts to delegitimize the 2024 results if he loses.(subscription required)

People around the former and would-be president see a candidate knocked off his bearings, disoriented by his new contest with Kamala Harris and unsure of how to take her on. (...) This story is based on interviews with more than a dozen people close to Mr. Trump, nearly all of whom insisted on anonymity to describe private discussions and events. (...) Nearly three weeks since she became his Democratic opponent, Mr. Trump and his campaign are still struggling to settle on how to define Ms. Harris, what message with which to attack her, and even what nickname with which to belittle her.(subscription required)

It's a stark escalation over the last month of what some experts in political rhetoric, fascism, and immigration say is a strong echo of authoritarians and Nazi ideology.
Trump's efforts to cling to power are unprecedented in American history. While political parties have fought over the results of presidential elections before, no incumbent president has ever made such expansive and individualized pleas to the officials who oversee certification of the election results.

For Trump personally, of course, this is a live-or-die agenda, and Trump campaign officials acknowledge that it aligns well with their own 'Agenda 47' program.

"The Iowa results confirm a compelling consensus that Trump will be the nominee and there is nothing anyone can do about it absent an act of God or the courts," Jowers said.
While speaking of Laken Riley - a 22-year-old nursing student from Georgia allegedly murdered by a Venezuelan immigrant in the country illegally - Trump said some immigrants were sub-human. "The Democrats say, 'Please don't call them animals. They're humans.' I said, 'No, they're not humans, they're not humans, they're animals,'" said Trump, president from 2017 to 2021.

one of the organization's messages found its way to Trump and then his millions of supporters
A growing number of investors and economists see inflation rising if former President Trump and Republicans sweep the upcoming elections. As Trump opens a wider lead in polling over President Biden, economic experts say his proposed tax and tariff policies could lead to higher prices, after more than two years of the incumbent fighting inflation.
'There's nothing efficient about that,' Kelley told Reuters.
Experts say the support amounts to a tacit endorsement of a dangerous movement that has been linked to criminal acts ranging from the Jan. 6 Capitol riot to isolated cases of violence and even murder.
It's been understood for some time that there is no limit on the fearmongering Donald Trump will deploy when it comes to the U.S.-Mexico border.
A former president falsely accusing his successor and rival of posing a threat to his life is without precedent in modern U.S. history.
Pentagon officials were deeply concerned about the former president turning the visit into a campaign stop, but they also didn't want to block him from coming, according to Defense Department officials and internal messages reviewed by The Washington Post.
Officials said they wanted to respect the wishes of grieving family members who wanted Trump there, but at the same time were wary of Trump's record of politicizing the military. So they laid out ground rules they hoped would wall off politics from the final resting place of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for their nation.
Instead, they got sucked into exactly the kind of crisis they were hoping to avoid.
