Are you surprised that Donald Trump fired attorney Sidney Powell?

- You can’t be fired if you were never hired to begin with. She never signed a retainer nor did she charge the campaign for expenses or fees. What you are doing is perpetuating a media smear. It’s just like the smear that Trump has lost 30 plus cases or something like that when “Donald J. Trump for President, Inc.” never filed that many cases to begin with. They are called lies... There are many individuals and organizations filing law suits in relation to the 2020 election, but only a handful are “Donald J. Trump for President, Inc.” and those cases are moving forward smoothly. Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. has filed several lawsuits that have to do with voter irregularities and constitutional law violations. They are pursuing legal issues that they hope to proved before the electoral college votes in an attempt to block certification which will force a constitutional decision in the supreme court on electoral college vote majority which Trump currently leads 232 to 227. That sort of legal decision could win the race for him. If the supreme court rules a candidate needs a 270 majority, then it could go to a contingent election which could also win the election for Trump with state delegations voting in his favor.
Sidney Powell, Lin Wood, and others are running legal strategies in parallel to the President. Sidney Powell specifically is pursuing a criminal election fraud case that she plans to file by Friday of this week. It is a longer term strategy. The case would have no chance of turning over the election in the next several weeks but it could take down some corruption in the long run. All the presidents legal team did was clarify that since so many people like yourself get so easily brainwashed by the media. She made some bold claims and then the media turned the narrative against Trump like they always do trying to discredit his legal claims with someone else’ legal claims, rather than focus on just the facts. Sidney Powell is a pretty heavy hitter so I wouldn’t take her claims lightly… It will be interesting to read over the evidence as it is gradually released over time. I don’t know what she will be able to prove in court, but the RNC seems to think she has some massive amount of evidence. Time will tell...1|00|0Is this still revelant?

- Well yeah that's what you do when it looks like your loosing the case with your attorneys you fire them try and get other's. But the problem isn't the attorneys, the problem is there is legit no case for them to win they have nothing. But yet trump thinks magically fire and hiring people will just find evidence and win the case. Which tbf does happen but only when there is actual proof which there is none for his claims so...
he's such an idiot, sad thing is when the case gets thrown out it don't matter really. Trump still got to be president and still has billions of cash he sits on. Hopefully he goes crazy after losing and does something that get's him arrested or dead.1|20|0Is this still revelant?It’s often a bad sign when you fire your lawyer right before the case goes to trial. Not to mention tactically unwise.

- I'm definitely surprised. It's strange to see him acting reasonably - it's like watching a particularly idiotic flea gain sentience.
But combined with his proper sentences in his "concession" tweet (not that you can call it that), it's kinda clear that he's given up on being president hard and other people are stepping in to do his job for him. Which, honestly, is pretty par for course.1|11|0Is this still revelant?Even fleas have their day, and a stopped clock is right twice a day. Trump occasionally does something that seems right (troop withdrawal? ) but I am always suspicious that it was done by his minions who somehow hid it from him or talked him into it. Perhaps these things happen just for political reasons and I'm kind of missing seeing that. We should all be grateful that he occasionally lets other people do things for him because almost anyone's judgment is much better than his.
- Nothing this clown does surprises me anymore, I just keep holding my breath that he doesn't do anything truly irreparable in the remaining 58 days that we are stuck with him...1|31|0Is this still revelant?
Do you think he did the right thing from a legal strategy standpoint in distancing himself from her?

749- Did not know this. I saw Tucker going off on her. If she’s hyping everyone up with no intention to release the evidence she’s been talking about, then she needs to go. She’s making some wild accusations.
If you cannot validate this and release the kraken already- then shut the fuck up and back off because you’re causing a lot of panic. Clinton’s did this with Russian collusion. Acted like they have substantial evidence to lock Trump in prison. Everyday, they kept
saying we’re going to release the information. If never happened.
More over, if she’s not doing her job adequately, then she needs to be replaced. Clearly, there’s voter fraud- but I don’t know if it’s substantial enough to shift results in favor of Trump.1|00|0 - A little bit. She seemed to be saying basically the same things he's been saying. Perhaps she's a scapegoat now? Her fault he lost the election kind of thing? He apparantly hired a black actor to pretend to be Obama in his first few months to yell at blame and make fun of. Hiring someone to act like a bad lawyer for pretty much the same thing wouldn't be beneath him.2|00|0
@Bananaman177 no idea. Sometime after all the real law firms cut ties with him but before he announced her as part of his legal team on Twitter, I'd imagine.

Um, no. Try again. When did Trump hire Sidney Powell to his legal team, c'mon. When?
Damn, you were so close to realizing how the media manipulates your thinking with bald-faced lies built on nothing but pure fantasy and nonsense. . . but instead, you only saw an opportunity to make a sarcastic remark. So sad. I really gave you too much credit.
Is it so hard for you to believe that your entire opinion of Trump is built on a similar house of cards? Lies built on lies built on lies?
Listen, you remember when all these same media people, literally the exact same blue checkmarked people, were all writing up scathing, blistering articles with full color photos and even video snippets of Trump being a completely crass, barbarian dickhead over in Japan when he dumped out his box of food into the Koi pond, when he was visiting then Japanese PM Shinzo Abe? Do you remember how that incident turned out?
Why do you hate Trump when everything, every single thing you know about him is a lie fed to you by people who think you're fucking stupid and who filter and control your access to information to lie to you more? That's my question that'll probably never be answered. Why do you allow yourself to be manipulated? Why do you willingly go along with it, why do you dance to their tune?Well, you can keep trying your petty gaslighting all you want. But it didn't work. You were outvoted. Time to grow up or come up with a new scam. Not even aggressively stupid people fall for the same scam twice. You tried the pinnacle of hate based make believe non-politics with trump. There is no one more divisive and less competent you're going to find.
If we're lucky it just might be the end of the republican party as the mudsills go full tinfoil and the normal conservatives decide they want nothing to do with you weirdos. That would be great to get you people and your unrealistic demands out of the way, as then democrats could finally get some work done!Dang. I've heard that show was hilarious, but knowing a maga mudsill enjoys it tells me it's probably a pretty stupid show..
- He did not fire her. It was a tactical move. It has to do with her not being financed by the Trump campaign. I agree that her allegations are a little close to the edge, but she believes that she can prove them. And she has a pretty good track record as a lawyer1|00|3
"A little close to the edge" ? ROFLMFAO!!! How about "completely divorced from reality" ?

@msc545 I think it’s quite arrogant to assume you know more than these people. We can make assumptions, but to arrive at the conclusion with 100% certainty is stupid. None of us really know until the evidence is released.
How misleading though. Everyone saying he directly fired her. Good example on how you can’t trust anything the media tells you.
- Nixon’s Saturday Night Massacre was about firing people who weren't willing to lie or break the law for him, until he found one that would.
This was just getting rid of somebody who made Guiliani look reasonable by comparison.
Was she fired? I thought the story was she was never part of the team, but that might have been yesterday.1|10|0She was never part of the team except when she spoke at length during Giuliani's presser or appeared on right wing TV as part of the team. Now 2 days later Giuliani is like "Who dis?" Watching Trump's elite legal strike troops come apart like a cheap suit is fun to watch.
- Not when I saw what she was on about concerning massive conspiracies and millions of dead voters. I think it's good that Trump dismissed her, it displays that he's serious about the allegations and not just trying to hyperbole his way to supreme court.1|10|1
- I’m genuinely unfazed by most of the things he does at this point. I was shocked by everything during the first two years of his term but now I’m used to him I guess1|21|0
- Why should anyone be surprised by what he does?
I never understood why people kept claiming they were surprised by what he did over the last four years. I was like. . . "wtf, you haven't watched television in the last 30 years?"2|40|0 - Anonymous1 moand I bet it really burns your biscuits that she's still working along side the Trump campaign, with her focus being the Dominion fraud machines and those involved, while the Trump campaign is focusing more on the things they have time to prepare to present to the Supreme Court, huh? haha. Silly Trump-hating liberal.
Just so you know, Sydney Powell is intending to go after the corrupt Republicans as well. This is why she has to remain separate from Trump; to avoid any appearance of conflict of interest. But, being a patriotic American, who wants truth and justice, you should be in full support of this... am I right? You should want corrupt politicians to be investigated on all sides of the political spectrum and not just creaming your pants over everything you hate about Trump.1|02|1The only thing more pathetic than your straw man call to patriotism, is the idea that the Dems could mastermind such a plot. LMAO. The Dems can't claw their way out of a paper bag. And if this unhinged theory were true, wouldn't the outcome of this "corrupt tyranny" been in Trump's favor? He is after all, a consummate con man. By the way, my "hatred" for trump, which is more loathing and disgust, is validly based on his life's behaviors as WELL as my family's personal interaction with his in the state of NY. You on the other hand, don't know what the hell you're blathering about when it comes to trump, Mr. Anonymous.
@loveslongnails The democrats can't claw their way out of a paper bag only when it comes to proposing much less passing any meaningful legislation that helps the general populous. But when it comes to corruption, dividing the nation, shredding the constitution, spending money and keeping us all dependent on government for freebies they shine bright.
I proudly support President Trump (OH SNAP- say it isn't so!). You finding his behavior disgusting is your problem. America's decline will only be accelerated with Biden and his progressive base in charge. What is truly disgusting is that Biden is a self-proclaimed pedophile who loves fondling little girls. There are examples of that all over the internet. It makes me sick seeing little girls uncomfortable and trying to get away from him groping their breasts. He is a sick man whose behavior is much worse than President Trump life's behaviors and tweets that you don't like.
Biden is one of the most corrupt political figures ever to hold office. When his son Hunter was discharged from the military for drug abuse, Biden had every opportunity to help him over come his addiction and straighten his life out. Instead he used Hunter as a front man to funnel millions of dollars to the Biden family from countries in exchange for favors from then vice president Biden.
Yep, he'll make a swell president alright. And what's wrong with patriotism? I think it's pathetic that you think it's pathetic. You're a prime example of what's wrong with a country where hate rules.
- I heard of cases where drowning people cling to a rescue swimmer and so they both get into trouble.
I also heard about cases where the rescuer thus knocked the drowning guy unconscious...
just saying :D
About the Don and this Sidney: I can't feel pity for any of them - they deserve each other, apparently.2|00|0 - I don't know that he did. It's my understanding that what Trump's team is working on is more on a timeline to meet deadlines I'm December. Sidney Powell is working on more of a long game.2|00|1
- Nope, it seems like firing is a theme for Trump even before his presidency 😂1|00|1
- Yes, doesn't surprise me one bit, I think if he ran on a different platform and got along with all people, even though he got his ways, He would have made a better US President but how can a President go golfing on his golf field knowing there is 11 Million America's sick and some passed due to COVID?1|10|0
- No, and he was right to do it.
However, he's the captain of the Titanic now and he's going down with the ship.1|10|1 - I don’t think he fired her, I think they’re distancing themselves from her.2|01|0

i don't completely understand the legality of it, but essentially lying on his taxes. New York is going after him, which doesn't mean he's guilty, but it seems serious enough based off what I've heard. And it doesn't matter who you are, the IRS will fuck you up.

- Not surprised at all. I am dissappointed that the Republicans have let their President take ovwr the GOP, rule them with bullying and fear tactics. They must feel lost as a party.1|10|0
- Not really. He has a habit of firing people whenever he doesn't get his way for something. It's kind of like every time something didn't go wrong for Darth Vader he'd simply just kill whoever was in charge and promote the next guy.2|10|0
- Anonymous1 moThe man’s tag line is “You’re fired.”
If you are surprised, it’s because you have not been paying attention.1|10|0 - Anonymous1 moNot really. That move, along with his legal team of clowns and failed voter fraud lawsuits, exemplifies trump's incompetence and stupidity.1|60|0
- No, guys like that probably have 20 lawyers, some company lawyers, some backups, family lawyers.. Firing one seems like a normal business practice.1|10|1
- He's fired more people than he hasn't fired. I'm surprised though that he fired someone as crazy as he is.2|10|0
- It doesn't really surprise me what this insane man does anymore.
It's more embarrassing then anything else, for himself and the country.2|20|0 - Not surprised at all what trump does. He is desperately trying to leech on to the presidency and blaming everyone else for losing it.1|30|0
- He only fired her because she was lampooned by Fox News. Not because she's bat shit crazy.1|00|0

- Everything he has done so far has been painfully obvious and more to come1|30|0
