"I’ve been thinking, lately, about the theme of 'American presidents who commit felonies.' I don’t know why; it’s just been on my mind recently for some reason," writes Crime Reads' Olivia Rutigliano. She's created this list of fictional presidents from TV and and film who've committed felonies, including President Fitz from "Scandal," President Frank Underwood from "House of Cards," and more. "As I just said, these are fictional examples, so if some real guy who was elected the President of the United States of America committed anything equivalent to these things in real life, it’d be way, way worse," Rutigliano concludes.

These are truly sick individuals. 's crimes are 's fault. Trump's trial is 's fault. Trump's conviction is Biden's fault. And now, the threats to the safety of the jurors by Trump and his supporters are Biden's fault. I cannot wrap my head around such brazen and absurd projection, and abandonment of objective reality. These are, unquestionably, the most dishonest people to ever walk the Earth.

"We need to identify each juror. Then make them miserable. Maybe even suicidal,” wrote another user on the same forum. “1,000,000 men (armed) need to go to washington and hang everyone. That’s the only solution, this shit is out of control.”

“I hope every juror is doxxed and they pay for what they have done,” another user wrote on Trump’s Truth Social platform Thursday. “May God strike them dead. We will on November 5th and they will pay!”

The head of six companies, including a major U.S. military communications contractor and a company that puts wires in peoples' brains, wants you to know that he considers filing fraudulent business records to be a trivial matter.

I think , , , , et al are evil criminals who need to be brought to justice.

I believe they are fascists or at least on friendly terms with fascists. I believe they've broken laws and are a threat to my life and the lives of my children.

I believe the US government may not be equipped to bring them to justice and that too is a crime.

I will never wish violence on them. I will never wish cancer on them.

Because I'm not a fucking fascist.

is a busted flush. The GOP would have to be off its rocker to endorse a convicted felon and sex offender as their candidate. He must be under intense pressure behind the scenes to step aside. But who would they replace him with? 🐘
