The idea that he made it through his first campaign for office in the first place without being laughed out is still sickening. Everything else is just diarrhea frosting on the jive cake.

He SHOULD have been arrested and thrown in jail like 30 or 40 years ago, actually. He's a career criminal who has been at the very least skirting the edge of the law as long as he's been active in real estate.

I mean, I'm not disagreeing, but before the campaign he was just another dipshit celebrity coasting on a reputation despite being mocked everywhere from the Simpsons to Sesame Street. If he'd just stayed there, he'd continue to be a footnote in history and nobody would really care.

Especially in a Primary field that diverse. We know Russia was stirring the pot, but even now I'm torn between accepting the wide primary gave Trump the traction he needed for Russia to really get behind him and push, or that Russian interference is still under-reported simply by virtue of how many other challengers he managed to swat out of the way despite his behavior.

Of course, that bastard Comey had to go and slap his dick on the scale at the 11th hour just before the election.
 

wonko the sane?

You may test that assumption at your convinience.

You're also ignoring the idea that trump acted entirely in the way the republican base wanted. They literally want an autocrat: this is what the cult they built was trained to want.

There is the argument that the DOJ needs to be particularly careful, given his ill-gotten status in the world and the precedent he's setting... But there's also the argument (that the DOJ themselves keep making.) that no one is above the law: yet despite the fact that the literal other 8 billion people would have been in jail by now and trump still walks free.

For christ sake, you're still missing documents even: search his other ******* properties. No one else would have been granted this leniency when it's already proven he's committed the crime!

That might just be the least surprising thing I've read here ever.

As Herschel Walker (a man so completely unfit for *any* elected office he makes Trump look like Benjamin Franklin) aptly demonstrates, the Republicans could nominate literally any person, place, or thing and their advantage is so unfairly stacked through gerrymandering, disenfranchisement, and propaganda there is almost no chance the election isn’t within 5 points.

Which is insane. A lot of the Republican candidates are firmly in the 10-20% chance in a non-fucked up world but it’s going to be close and there’s a real chance any (or all) of them could win.

Three of those sworn in — a full quarter of those seated — openly do not like Trump.

That includes a man who said in court that Trump is "a narcissist" and two women who said in court that they didn't like how Trump ran the country. All three were sworn in after repeatedly promising that they could still be fair and impartial jurors.
I feel like that's asking for Trump to use it as an excuse for why the jury reached a guilty verdict.

He'll find a reason to complain about it no matter what happens. Even if he wins the suit, he'll still keep saying it was a witch hunt or something.

So an appeal on conviction is already in the bank and most likely to succeed. That's great.

At last we know the truth:

The election was STOLLEN.
