Trump celebrates Michigan Supreme Court poll win: Live

The Lincoln Project, an anti-Trump PAC, launched a foul advert doubling down on allegations that former president Donald Trump smells.

Claims across the former president’s alleged odour erupted earlier this week when former Illinois Republican consultant Adam Kinzinger tweeted, “I’m genuinely surprised how people close to Trump haven’t talked about the odor. It’s truly something to behold. Wear a mask if you can.”

The Lincoln Project seized upon the ensuing social media firestorm with a video commercial on Saturday, with the caption: “Is that you Donald? #TrumpSmells.”

The advert begins with scenes of dumps, waste, and dung — with flies swarming round it — and is punctuated by a refrain of coughs, sniffles, and vomiting.

The video then exhibits rubbish being picked up and piled up on the streets of New York.

Then, whereas that includes the facade of Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue, a reporter’s voice booms, “Claiming the former president smells bad.”

Comedian Kathy Griffin can then be heard saying, “The Donald has a distinct smell. It’s like body odour with a scented makeup product.”

While displaying different smelly merchandise, like moldy cheese, somebody could be heard sniffing earlier than saying, “Ew, Donald. Is that you?”

Mr Covington did not reclaim his welterweight title from Leon Edwards at UFC 296 in Las Vegas on 17 December, after shedding on factors.

Mr Trump was pictured on the entrance row for the combat on the T-Mobile Arena, alongside Dana White and singer Kid Rock, with Mr Covington leaving the ring after the combat to work together with him.

Prosecutors with the workplace of Special Counsel Jack Smith have requested the choose overseeing the 2020 election subversion case towards Donald Trump to ban the ex-president from elevating “politicised claims” and “irrelevant issues” when the case goes to trial earlier than a Washington, DC jury subsequent 12 months.

In the 20-page submitting submitted earlier than US District Judge Tanya Chutkan on Wednesday, Senior Assistant Special Counsels Molly Gaston and Thomas Windom say that Mr Trump “has made clear his intent to introduce evidence and make arguments that are improper—whether because they have no bearing on his guilt or innocence, are otherwise irrelevant, or are substantially more prejudicial than probative” and ask that such proof or arguments be excluded from presentation to a jury.

Although the 5 March 2024 begin date for Mr Trump’s trial has been stayed whereas the DC Circuit Court of Appeals considers the ex-president’s attraction of Judge Chutkan’s rejection of his claims of presidential immunity, the prosecutors beneath Mr Smith have continued submitting paperwork with the court docket to allow a speedy trial ought to the keep be lifted.

They word that Mr Trump “has made unsupported and politicized claims of selective and vindictive prosecution, indicated that he intends to explore irrelevant issues related to the Government’s investigation, and complained that the grand jury’s indictment and the Court’s trial date will interfere with his political activities” and argue that “none” of these points have any bearing on whether or not Mr Trump is responsible or not responsible of the costs towards him.

Social media has not taken kindly to the invention of the 2 black rectangular pads noticed beneath the previous president’s toes whereas he was talking at Mar-a-Lago.

“What is Trump standing on here? How often does he use these?” one account requested in an X post, which included a photograph of Mr Trump’s shiny black sneakers leaning on the pads.

One person joked, “trump toe pads, desantis’ heels – does the Republican Party have a foot fetish?”

“Counter balances the 3-inch lifts in his shoes since he can no longer hold his own weight,” somebody commented.

Another brutally remarked, “Trump needs toe pads to stand up without falling over. What an aLpHa MaLe!”

Yet one other wrote, “me leveling my uneven furniture.”

“The Michigan Supreme Court has strongly and rightfully denied the Desperate Democrat attempt to take the leading Candidate in the 2024 Presidential Election, me, off the ballot in the Great State of Michigan,” the previous president wrote. “This pathetic gambit to rig the Election has failed all across the Country, including in States that have historically leaned heavily toward the Democrats. Colorado is the only State to have fallen prey to the scheme.”

“That 4-3 Colorado Supreme Court decision, which they themselves stayed, thus keeping me on the ballot as we go up to the U.S. Supreme Court, is being ridiculed and mocked all over the World,” he claimed. “We have to prevent the 2024 Election from being Rigged and Stolen like they stole 2020 – just look at the complete mess we have as a result with Crooked Joe Biden violently destroying everything in his sight, from our once-great Economy to our once-fair Justice System. We have to save our Country from decline and the Radical Left. Make America Great Again!”
