His crimes were committed while he was President, so the fact that he wasn’t removed from office under the 25th Amendment should be prima facie evidence of his fitness for prison.
He was always a moron, from a very young age. If his daddy hadn’t given him money, Trump would be nowhere. He’d be the dumbest, laziest guy in some prison somewhere as a repeat offender with a history of fraud.
The question is whether Trump can beat ALL 91 felony indictments. Trump may get 4 more years, and another 4 more years, repeated 90 more times. Other claims, easily disproven, are smoke and mirrors.
That still doesn’t preclude him from serving as President. Federal charges would have to end in conviction before he’s potentially elected or he’ll just pardon himself.
Also, one trumper on a jury is all it takes for him to escape justice. I doubt he’ll be convicted. Unfortunately.
Indeed, being seen as “too” smart can hurt you with the GOP base, which suspiciously eyes intelligence as a gateway drug to rationality.
This is an epic quote. Succinct, biting, and true. When I was growing up, the left was demonized for putting feelings over facts, but now the shoe is in the other foot. “Don’t confuse us with facts,” is clearly the sentiment of the Trumpet base.
The whole thing was, if possible, even dumber than people think.
Can’t find the video any longer, all you can see now is Trump on the podium saying stupid shit, you miss the context.
Trump’s taking the stage, ill prepared as always, when he stops for a few moments to read a CDC infographic on ways to sterilize surfaces. Then he just turns on his mouth and lets it run.
God help me, there’s nothing more I can add to illustrate how idiotic it all was.
I think he might actually be starting to crack under pressure, he’s been saying some weird shit for him to say lately, and he says some weird shit as it is.
Agreed. People should have a look at old videos of him in interviews. He could string coherent thoughts together.
What’s really stunning is reading a speech transcript. When you listen all you hear is, “bla, bla, bla”. Reading it is a whole 'nother experience. Fragmented, incoherent, rambling, frightening.
Don’t take my word for it folks! Give it a try yourself.
Look, having nuclear — my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I’m one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you’re a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are — nuclear is so powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what’s going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what’s going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it’s all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us, this is horrible.
Shut the fuck up with the both sides are bad shit. One side wants to raise taxes, the other one wants to kill trans people and take away minority rights. Here's a hint, its no the democrats that are trying to kill trans people or do other groups harm.
Yet those same Democrats that you claim want to protect the trans community have done fuck all to protect the trans community. How long ago did bathroom build conversation start, and what exactly have Democrats done to protect their rights in regards to bathroom use? When have they tried to increase wages so that those in marginalized communities are not living in abject poverty, without access to health care without access to mental health care, without access to affordable housing? They may talk about protecting marginalized and the trans community but they don’t know shit to enshrine those rights. Someone that’s openly hostile to marginalized people is less of a danger than someone that claims to be an ally that hides among us that does nothing to help our cause.
That side that you say wants to raise taxes worked directly with Mitch McConnell when he was vice president to make the Bush tax cuts for the rich permanent, they have made no effort while they control the senate in the house and had the white house to remove Trump’s tax cuts for the rich.
No, you’re right, the third one was the wrong URL and I can’t figure out which article I was thinking of now. But I think the other three all show that the Democrats are fighting for trans rights even when they have no voting power. What are they supposed to do, take state houses by force?
Civil wars do not seize statehouses, they seize states. What you are talking about would end up killing huge numbers of trans people, along with all of the other people getting caught in the crossfire. I’m not sure that’s the best way to advocate for them.
Making capital building restrooms unisex is not making life better.
So again what exactly have the house and senate done to protect the lives of the transgender community? Outside the capital building, your other examples are state issues. Which does nothing for the states that have done nothing.
Well… since there are not federal laws attacking trans people, they are all state issues. So I’m not sure what you expect Democrats to do on the federal level.
They are doing exactly what I expected of them, using my community as human shields to stay in power. Tokenizing us to be used as weapons to silence opposition to their shitty policies.
I would say no livable wages, no access to healthcare, no affordable housing is harm to groups of people here in the country. In addition to murder around the world
Obama essentially single-handedly made Trump do all this because Trump couldn’t handle a joke at his expense. Trump got voted out, including by fed up members of his own party, and somehow Trump has beaten Obama in any way whatsoever? LOL
edit: also hard to believe he’s beaten GWB in any way considering how many people were like “wow GWB seems kinda reasonable in hindsight now”
Trump was in narcissist hell there. Trapped, literally nothing he could do but grit his teeth. Keep in mind, a narcissist is literally incapable of self deprecation, unable to even pretend. Probably hadn’t been so impotently humiliated since his school days. Those 5 minutes changed history.
