The Democrats are going around threatening a lot of people, including the Attorney General of the United States, and others, with Impeachment and many other forms of punishment, even though they admit they have no reason to do so, and there have been no impeachable acts committed, or even thought of, by the victims of this illegal process. This is extortion at the highest level, and they should be held accountable for this. Also, they’re threatening our Donors, some of the most respected people anywhere in the World, with imprisonment, and many other levels of punishment, just because they happen to be Republicans, or Republican supporters. This is Weaponization and Lawfare at another level. The Senator from Michigan, Elissa Slotkin, is saying that she is going to go after all young people that believe in Republican Values, and that give even the slightest inclination to be a Republican. The imprisonment should be against these EXTORTIONISTS, and Republicans should get smart, fast! Threatening letters have been sent to many people, all innocent, from Democrat Political Leaders. By copy of this statement, I am ordering the Department of Justice to look into this criminal act, immediately! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Extortion at the highest level
Donald J. Trump
OriginalThe presidential version
The American President
SatireSeveral members of my administration, including the Attorney General, have been threatened with impeachment, and some Republican supporters say they have received letters warning them of legal consequences. I believe these threats are unjustified, and I am concerned that political disagreements are being turned into legal threats.
Impeachment is a serious constitutional process, reserved for serious misconduct, and it should never be used as a means of pressure. Anyone who believes they are being threatened unlawfully should contact law enforcement. It will be for the Department of Justice, acting independently, to determine whether any law was broken. I ask the leaders of both parties to lower the temperature.
Around the world
Switzerland & France
Vaudois (Switzerland)
SatireBon. Il dit qu’on menace ses amis de destitution sans raison, et que c’est de l’extorsion « au plus haut niveau ». Chez nous, le plus haut niveau, ce sont les Diablerets, et on y monte à pied, sans menacer personne.
Qui a raison ? Faut voir. Mais crier « en prison » à tout bout de champ, ça joue pas trop, ou bien ?
English version
Well. He says his friends are being threatened with impeachment for no reason, and that it’s extortion “at the highest level”. Round here, the highest level is the top of the Diablerets, and we walk up there without threatening anyone.
Who’s right? We’ll see. But shouting “to jail” at every turn doesn’t really work, does it?
Fribourgeois (Switzerland)
SatireSalut les gaillards ! Il dit qu’on menace ses amis et ses donateurs, et que c’est de l’extorsion.
Chez nous, à Fribourg, on a deux langues et on s’entend quand même. Quand ça chauffe, on ne crie pas « en prison » : on fait une fondue moitié-moitié. Moitié pour toi, moitié pour moi. Ça calme tout le monde.
English version
Hey folks! He says his friends and donors are being threatened, and that it’s extortion.
In Fribourg we speak two languages and still get along. When things heat up, we don’t shout “to jail”: we make a half-and-half fondue. Half for you, half for me. It calms everyone down.
Neuchâtelois (Switzerland)
SatireIl dit que ses adversaires menacent tout le monde de destitution, alors qu’il n’y aurait rien à reprocher à personne.
Ici, quand on soupçonne une montre de mal fonctionner, on ne crie pas au sabotage : on l’ouvre, on regarde, et on laisse l’horloger trancher. Les procès, c’est pareil. On laisse le juge ouvrir le boîtier.
English version
He says his opponents are threatening everyone with impeachment, when nobody has done anything wrong.
Round here, when we suspect a watch isn’t working, we don’t cry sabotage: we open it, we look, and we let the watchmaker decide. Trials are the same. Let the judge open the case.
Parisien (France)
Satire« De l’extorsion au plus haut niveau », « du lawfare à un autre niveau »… Il aime bien les niveaux. Moi aussi : j’habite au sixième sans ascenseur.
Bref, si quelqu’un menace quelqu’un, il y a des juges pour ça. Ordonner une enquête au ministère de la Justice par communiqué, c’est très pratique. Pas sûr que ce soit très indépendant.
English version
“Extortion at the highest level”, “lawfare at another level”… He likes his levels. So do I: I live on the sixth floor, no lift.
Anyway, if someone threatens someone, there are judges for that. Ordering the Justice Department to investigate by press release is very convenient. Not sure it’s very independent.
Sud de la France
SatireOh, quelle histoire ! On menace ses donateurs, des gens parmi les plus respectés du monde entier, de l’univers même ! Et la destitution, et la prison, et tout !
Moi je dis : du calme. Ici, quand deux voisins se disputent pour une boule de pétanque, avant de crier, on mesure.
English version
Oh, what a to-do! They’re threatening his donors, some of the most respected people in the whole world, in the universe even! And impeachment, and prison, and everything!
I say: calm down. Round here, when two neighbours argue over a pétanque ball, before anyone shouts, we measure.
Breton (France)
SatireIl dit qu’on menace ses amis, que c’est de l’extorsion, et que la prison, c’est pour les autres. Bon.
Ici, on dit qu’il ne faut pas crier contre le vent : ça vous revient dans la figure. Envoyez donc les lettres à la justice, et laissez-la faire son travail. Elle aussi, elle aime le calme.
English version
He says his friends are being threatened, that it’s extortion, and that prison is for the other side. Right.
Here we say you shouldn’t shout into the wind: it comes straight back in your face. Send the letters to the courts, and let them do their job. They like a bit of calm too.
United States
California (United States)
SatireOkay, so everyone’s threatening everyone with impeachment and prison and “lawfare at another level”? That is a lot of energy for one Saturday.
Maybe everybody takes a breath, goes for a hike and lets the courts do their thing. Ordering an investigation by social media post is, like, not the vibe.
In plain English
California finds the whole quarrel exhausting: threats of impeachment and prison on all sides.
Its advice: everyone calm down and let the courts work. Ordering investigations by post is not a good look.
Midwest (United States)
SatireWell, sounds like an awful lot of folks are upset with each other right now. Threatening letters aren’t very neighborly, whoever’s sending them.
But ordering the Justice Department around from your phone? That’s not how we’d go about it either. Out here we’d sit everybody down, put on a pot of coffee and let the judge figure it out.
In plain English
The Midwest dislikes threats from anyone, and also dislikes a president giving orders to the Justice Department by social media post.
Its solution: calm down, talk it over, and let the courts decide.
United Kingdom
London (United Kingdom)
SatireExtortion at the highest level, lawfare at another level, weaponization at yet another. One does admire the floor plan.
In London we’d say that’s a lot of levels for one building, and suggest someone check the planning permission. As for ordering the Justice Department about by press release: brave.
In plain English
London teases the President’s “levels”: extortion at the highest level, lawfare at another level, and so on.
And it finds ordering the Justice Department to investigate by public statement rather bold, in the ironic sense.
The Diplomat
The American President is just above. Here, the other statesmen.
The British Diplomat
SatireHis Majesty’s Government does not comment on the domestic political affairs of our closest ally, and will therefore confine itself to a general observation.
Impeachment, prosecution and imprisonment are serious matters. In our experience they are best decided by parliaments and courts respectively, and only rarely by press release.
What he really means
We don’t comment. But we will anyway:
a president should not order prosecutions in a social media post.
The French Diplomat
SatireFrance follows with attention, and with deep respect for American institutions, the debates currently under way in Washington.
Political confrontation is the lifeblood of democracy; independent courts are its guarantee. We trust that the Department of Justice will act with the independence that American democracy rightly expects of it.
The Swiss President
SatireThe Federal Council does not comment on the internal politics of friendly countries.
We would only recall that in Switzerland there is no impeachment of a member of the government: Parliament simply decides, every four years, whether to re-elect them. And the people vote four times a year, which leaves very little time for threatening letters.
