#TheOrangeMenace told the crowd at an #NRA event Friday that when it comes to #MassShootings, people need to "Get over it" and that Mass Shootings are "not a gun problem".
(Oh, and he also called for The Death Penalty for #Biden before a crowd of heavily armed gun nuts.) 🤔

We don't need yet another lawsuit. He has committed MORE than enough crimes to sentence a "less powerful" person to prison for the rest of their life.
What we need is the most serious case against him... the #ClassifiedDocs case... to proceed (without #JudgeCannon.)
The leader of the GOP is spending another day in court. He's also another day closer to receiving classified intelligence briefings as the winner of the GOP nomination. Trump can't be trusted with sensitive information while he's on trial for mishandling classified documents. Add your name if you agree: https://act.indivisible.org/sign/deny-trump-classified-briefings?source=mastodon&medium=directpost
And this was after turning "Lock Her Up" into a meme b/c Hillary installed a private email server in her home (upon which NOT A SINGLE classified doc was found) and 1 DE-classified document on her phone. For this, she was pilloried as "too reckless with National Security secrets" to be president.
As Trump’s classified docs prosecution goes forward, now w no pretense of trial before the election, Judge #Cannon appears poised to permit him to use pub hearings in the case to sound his campaign themes. 1/… #legal
If he wins but is then convicted, he must be #impeached.
If he loses, we can't simply drop the case just because HE personally is no longer a threat (he'll ALWAYS be a threat.) Too big an issue and a threat to national security.
Yes, other former presidents were found with documents "in their possession" after leaving office, but those items were taken by accident, packed by others along with personal belongings.
#DarthTraitor stole HUNDREDS of documents…many of them #SCIF level classified, which he refused to return when asked REPEATEDLY by the FBI, contending "THEY'RE MINE!" 🍼
AM I THE ONLY ONE who thinks #AG Merrick #Garland needs to intervene in the #ClassifiedDocs case that has now been indefinitely postponed on the grounds that THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW BEFORE THE ELECTION if the #Republican candidate for president is a #NationalSecurity risk. #MerrickGarland
@flexghost
For over 40 years, I've noted how I DEPLORE #CONSPIRACY THEORIES. It's insane nut-baggery where zealots see "puppeteers" behind everything from "Fluoridation" to Moon Landing.
They are impervious to Facts and no amount of proof can change their minds.
And then this country elects a #ConspiracyNut who spends night dreaming up wild "#DeepState" rationalizations to explain away his failures & prosecution for crimes he has CONFESSED TO ("Those #ClassifiedDocs were MINE!")
I ABSOLUTELY REFUSE TO BELIEVE that a #Nazi-quoting profane racist serial philanderer who stole over 300 #ClassifiedDocs (many of which have since gone missing), who is facing 91 #Felony indictments, botched a deadly #pandemic that resulted in over 1.2M American lives lost & crashed the economy, then encouraged a Treasonous attack on our Capitol b/c his astounding ego refuses to believe he actually lost, could be leading a #Potus who MORE THAN reversed most of that damage in just 3 years. #NoWay
How about a candidate found liable for sexual assault, fraud, defamation?
Via Kyle Griffin:
Just 23% of Americans say they would be willing to vote for a presidential candidate convicted of a felony crime by a jury, according to a new Gallup poll. 70% say they're not willing.

If you start bringing up details... asking them their position on individual cases... you'll find they don't actually have a justification for saying "the charges are made up".
Ask them to explain what he was doing with all those boxes of #ClassifiedDocs at MagaLoco.
Ask them why he didn't say anything for 3-1/2 hours on #Jan6 to stop the riot even after people were killed (and if he agrees they should be pardoned & apologized to.)
If I’ve understood 45’s argument, it’s that he found some lawyers who told him it was legal to overturn the entire election, which he really wanted to do. Then he spread lies about the election being stolen so others would be duped into helping him. So that means he’s…not guilty?
I just finished reading the indictment against Trump and need a shower.
I don’t have enough adjectives in my vocabulary arsenal to express my disgust re the lies and damage he (allegedly 🙄) has done to our country and its legitimate election processes.
The power of lies — the power of evil. We’ve seen it play out since 2015 and have experienced the havoc of that power.
“Fake news.”
“But her emails”
“Election fraud.” “Stop the steal”
…plus nearly every word he uttered during his four-year assault on our nation as its “leader.”
🔺Read the indictment. Know your enemy.
🔷DONATE TO DEMS. JOIN ACTIVISTS. WORK TO GET OUT THE VOTE.
When the FBI told T**** to turn over the #ClassifiedDocs he took and he failed to do so... not once but twice... and upon having to "raid" his home and discovering over 100 documents still in his possession, did they not ALREADY have sufficient evidence to prosecute him? (Charges for other crimes to follow, but there was no reason to wait.)
Trump asks for classified documents trial to take place after 2024 election (www.theguardian.com)
Ex-president’s lawyers made clear their preference and intentions to delay proceedings as they opposed December trial date
