Trump doesn't need Kimmel's support because he's got the Uihlein's financial backing.

Dick Uihlein, Fancelli, and Diane Hendricks funded the Jan 6 coup attempt.

@Npars01 @copter_chief Why aren’t they in prison?

The GOP megadonors funding Trump are shielding him in hopes of thwarting investigation into the money behind the Jan 6 coup attempt.

If Trump gets elected, they escape consequences for funding a seditious conspiracy.

They especially want to avoid investigations on the pressure tactics that got 147 members of Congress to participate in a coup attempt.

This makes perfect sense. Of course that's why. I bet a lot of this money was illegal.

The money doesn't vote, but the moneyed bought:

1. Six corrupt Supreme Court Justices
2. Over 1.2 million dead Americans from covid
3. A war on Ukraine
4. 147 election deniers in Congress
5. A coup attempt
6. A frying planet
7. 167 million American women without their civil rights
8. 20 million LGBTQ without their civil rights
9. 40 million POC with less rights to vote
10. Book burning
11. Drowning migrants at the border
12. Corrupt anti-democracy State governments

@Npars01 @copter_chief You think I don’t know this? The point is we still must vote and we still must accept the results

I know you know this, but the goal of both our posts is spreading a warning.

A lot of voters plug in to their duties as citizens just a few weeks before the elections.

Our posts might help them decide who and why.

@Npars01 @copter_chief I think we are both preaching to the choir.

You never know who might read your post before voting and decide not to vote for an anti-democracy candidate.

An enormous amount of money is being spent to tell people that government isn't their problem, only billionaires matter, but it isn't true.

The survival of democracy & the planet depends on not letting a right wing minority hijack democracy.

Exactly. Jimmy Kimmel was implying all those things and more. He didn’t have to go into details, the audience knows what kind of dangerously sociopathic and childish buffoon Trump is.

Right on #JimmyKimmel

The #MangoMussolini is a bully.
In #MAGAWorld bullying is a core principal.

Anytime anyone with a platform takes a moment to point out that the bully is a ridiculous #PaperTiger - I think that is a good thing, as trivial and juvenile as it may be.

It is good for #CivilSociety when people in high-visibility positions are willing to poke #bullies in the ego.

To be clear, #TFG was trying to bully Kimmel, but Jimmy wasnt having any.
