NBC's Steve Kornacki looks at a new NBC poll showing Donald Trump ahead in a head-to-head matchup against Joe Biden by five points, the highest margin he's ever gotten across 16 polls taken regularly since 2019.

Trump has repeatedly advanced a bold argument: that he is formally not subject to legal challenges.

A Trump campaign spokesperson pointed to his Jan. 10 social media post stating that a president could not function without "COMPLETE IMMUNITY."

Even high ranking Democrats in California and Illinois know that this is true, so despite similar efforts to take Trump off the ballot they've ruled that Trump will be able to run in their primaries.

Trumps' trials are going to continue, to end and begin. Other court rulings are about to clear the way for further trials to go forward.

This week we will learn the extent of the penalties in his fraud case. He was found guilty. They are going to be devastating to Trump. The fines will be in the hundreds of millions. They will also be shutting down his New York empire.

It's funny how Jack keeps claiming Trump hasn't been found guilty of anything yet. His businesses have left a trail of convictions since 2016. And he has also been convicted of sexually assaulting a woman. This shows how Jacks' opinions are steeped in deceptions and untruths. That they are not worth giving serious consideration.

The funny part is that Trumptards have no knowledge of how fucked in the head you guys are. If you could see yourselves from the outside, you could fix what is wrong, but since you can't see, you can't be fixed. Tough shit, losers, but that is your fate to be worthless assholes who delude themselves into believing they are valuable citizens contributing to America.

In news that will infuriate tax cheating Trump and his supporters:

IRS expects to collect hundreds of billions more in unpaid taxes thanks to new funding

Feb 6, 2024, 6:26 PM EST

WASHINGTON (AP) — The IRS is poised to take in hundreds of billions of dollars more in overdue and unpaid taxes than previously anticipated, according to new analysis released Tuesday by the Treasury Department and the IRS.

Tax revenues are expected to rise by as much as $561 billion from 2024 to 2034, thanks to stepped-up enforcement made possible with money from the Democrats’ Inflation Reduction Act, which became law in August 2022.

Ensuring that people actually pay their taxes is one of the tax collection agency’s biggest challenges. The audit rate of millionaires fell by more than 70 percent from 2010 to 2019 and the audit rate on large corporations fell by more than 50 percent, Treasury’s Deputy Assistant Secretary for Tax Analysis Greg Leiserson told reporters. IRA funding “is enabling the IRS to reverse this trend,” Leiserson said.

The tax gap — which is the difference between taxes owed and taxes paid — has grown to more than $600 billion annually, according to the IRS.

It is great when Republican Senators become richer from secrets they learn once they are Senators. Senators are paid $174,000 per annum, but Markwayne is hustling on the stock market to make even more.
https://www.senate.gov/senators/SenateSalariesSince1789.htm

At the end of 2021, Markwayne's reported assets increased to a range of $31.6 million to $75.6 million, compared to a range of $7.3 million to $29.9 million at the end of 2020. Markwayne knows how to make a fast buck now that he is in Congress. Markwayne supports making abortion illegal in all circumstances, including cases of rape, incest, or if the mother's life is at risk. During the 2022 Republican runoff debate, he claimed that if his wife's life were at risk during a pregnancy, neither he nor his wife would want to get an abortion. Trump should pick Markwayne for his Vice-President.

On the other hand, Biden invested big in more tax audits. A new IRS analysis claims it’s working.

A fully funded IRS would bring in twice as much money as they previously thought, a Treasury report finds.

By Dylan Matthews | Feb 7, 2024, 7:00am EST

In 2021, Americans owed about $625 billion in taxes that they never paid. This number, called the “tax gap,” represented some 13.7 percent of all taxes due, and, had it been collected, it would have reduced the deficit by nearly one-quarter.

Of particular note,

The Democratic Party's wide lead over Republicans in Black Americans’ party preferences has shrunk by nearly 20 points over the past three years.

Democrats' leads among Hispanic adults and adults aged 18 to 29 have slid nearly as much, resulting in Democrats' holding only a modest edge among both groups.

Whereas Democrats were at parity with Republicans among men as recently as 2009, and among non-college-educated adults as recently as 2019, they are now in the red with both groups.

Polls have long found that questions about his age and mental abilities have plagued Biden’s standing with the public.

Feb. 8, 2024, 5:28 PM CST / Updated Feb. 8, 2024, 7:56 PM CST
By Peter Nicholas

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden sidestepped any criminal charges as the investigation into his handling of classified documents concluded, but the political blowback from the special counsel’s report Thursday could prove even more devastating, reinforcing impressions that he is too old and impaired to hold the highest office.

Special counsel Robert Hur’s portrait of a man who couldn’t remember when he served as Barack Obama’s vice president, or the year when his beloved son Beau died, dealt a blow to Biden’s argument that he is still sharp and fit enough to serve another four-year term.

In October 2020, before Joe Biden was elected president and three months before Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol, then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi held a press conference. She was touting a bill to create a bipartisan commission that could determine a sitting president’s ability to carry out the duties of the office.

The original bill’s author was Rep. Jamie Raskin, a Maryland Democrat and former constitutional lawyer who would go on to lead the second Senate impeachment trial of Donald Trump. In Pelosi’s eerily portentous remarks, she said the measure wasn’t explicitly aimed at Trump, but his mental health “reminded” Democrats of why such a commission was needed.

“This is not about President Trump. He will face the judgment of the voters, but he knows the need for us to create a process for future presidents,” she said. “This legislation applies to future presidents, but we are reminded of the necessity of action by the health of the current president.”

The measure would have augmented the 25th Amendment, which provides procedures for transferring power to the vice president in case of the president’s death, incapacitation, removal, or resignation. It would set up a commission of 16 members chosen by Democrats and Republicans, who are medical experts or former high-ranking executive branch officials such as former members of a president’s Cabinet. The commission’s members would then select a 17th member, who would serve as chairperson.

Pelosi and many Democrats regularly raised the issue of the 25th Amendment during Trump’s tenure as president, more as a way to question his judgment and mental acuity amid the 45th U.S. president’s furious Twitter rants and frequent acts of retribution and name-calling.
