I’m scared to put our “Stop the Donald STD” and “Biden/Harris” yard signs out. I can envision terrorists roaming city streets to randomly take out the rest of us. I wish I were joking.
Frankly, in his J6 trial, part of his defense to get out of consequences is the "sincere belief" bit. So, he goes on these rants, and says specifically, "I won the election. That's what I believe", because his narcissism tells him that if he says it everyone will take it at face value.
But what I hope is Judge Chutkan will look at him after being found guilty, and say, "Mr. Trump, for anyone to sincerely believe that they won an election despite being told by multiple people, in multiple places, at multiple points is time that you lost that election, smacks of a form of insanity that needs treatment, and positively disqualifies you from being the President of the United States."
Then the MSM runs with "Judge calls Trump insane!!! Says he's unqualified!".
No, it'll never happen, but it is my current pipe dream.
I appreciate your ‘split reaction’...popcorn is okay, but our guards still need to be up. This IS the time where violence can be incited by this orange schmuck. Nothing would be better than to see him on a dolly like Hannibal Lechter, - with the muzzle on his mouth!
Some woman from Texas (because of course Texas) was arrested for threatening to kill the judge. I feel like all the crazies are about to start getting much crazier.
Pretty scary shit to say the least. It's obvious that his orders to STFU have had no impact on his daily deranged rants. How long will this bitter orange malignancy be allowed to test the waters of justice before he might be finally silenced and given a taste of where he belongs until his multiple trials begin? We all deserve a break from this insanity.
This dude should be in a deep, dark solitary confinement pit until trial and I frankly don't get why he isn't. Every day he abuses his freedom to try as hard as he can to stir up violence because nothing short of a civil war or complete revolution could save him now.
I mean, aside from just packing up his toys and flying a private jet to a non-extradition country.
But his rabid werewolf ego won't let him just slink away.
I'm gonna love living in Europe and not wondering if maybe today is the day his cultists will finally do their Rambo impressions while I'm out in public.
We're in a very red part of Florida and my husband will not let me put any stickers or signs that show we're Biden supporters. We actually have a bullet hole in our mailbox from the last time I showed party affiliation. It's wise to be careful!
Putting this out for the group. Could be a separate topic. For sake of discussion, suppose (dare to dream), that a guilty verdict comes in for one of these serious jail time charges. What are the odds that he flees? Russia? North Korea? Saudi? I can't imagine him possibly letting them lock him up. Just my 2 cents.
We’re supposed to live in the land of the free, where laws matter. This Republican Party is doing everything they can to destroy this. What a nightmare. It’s vital that people vote-especially younger people-to get democracy back on course. Great piece today, Jeff. It’s healthy to have a bit of fear-but I resent it. 🤷♀️
He’s acting like a toddler who has been sent to his room. Don’t worry, Donny, I’m sure protective custody will be greaaaat for your already depleted sanity
Did you actually view those meltdown posts? (Or did you task one of your many interns? Those Harvard applications don't write themselves, or maybe now with ChatGPT they do, I dunno.)
I guess there really are thousands of humans who just live to absorb that kind of horseshit like it was meth. Gawd, there ought to be studies under PET scans to see what that shit does to a brain.
I sincerely fear that some major riots are coming. Or attempted/real assassinations? I live in a small city, Marquette, that's a blue island in the otherwise-red Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The state as a whole is blue, but the UP is very red.
Here's what alarms me the most: there are EDUCATED people up here (and nationwide) who are in thrall to Trumpism. I recently had a conversation with a SURGEON at a local hospital who was all-in on QAnon. I felt frozen as I listened to his diatribe. Then of course there are the people you'd expect to be his followers who are gung-ho, and up here, 98% of them have gunS. Not one, but lots of them.
Trump is a very dangerous man who will stop at nothing to save himself. This is why he needs to be locked up until his trial dates so that he can no longer continue to promote and instill his hate of the rule of law to those with a penchant for violence.
holy shit, Donald Trump is fucking losing it

You had me at “the family of raccoons living in Trump’s head...”. Another winner, Jeff!

Do we laugh or tremble in fear? Yes. Yes to both.
Whistle in the dark. Light a candle. Pull back the curtain on The Great Oz. The emperor has no clothes. Don’t wear your politics on your tee shirt.
In the immortal words of R.Crumb, ‘keep a tight asshole’.
Take a breath.
This too shall pass.
