no, imbeciles, Donald Trump isn’t the American Navalny — he’s the American Putin
Navalny’s a hero. Trump’s a zero.
the prison murder of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny has given the dumbest assholes in the universe a shiny new talking point that they can’t shut the fuck up about.
here’s Pantload Emeritus of the Republican Party, Newt Gingrich, to lay it out.
“Navalnys death in prison is a brutal reminder that jailing your political opponents is inhumane and a violation of every principle of a free society. Watch the Biden Administration speak out against Putin and his jailing of his leading political opponent while Democrats in four different jurisdictions try to turn President Trump into an American Navalny. The hypocrisy and corruption of the left is astonishing.”
that’s so much fucknuttery packed into one tweet, but the gist is that Trump is a political prisoner just like Navalny, and Joe Biden is the moral equivalent to Vlad Putin.
perpetual failed candidate and perennial Trump bootlicker Lee Zeldin picked up the ball and ran with it.
“As the world reflects on the murder of Alexei Navalny at the hands of Putin, it’s worth remembering that Democrats are actively doing Biden’s bidding as they also try to imprison his chief political opponent, Donald Trump, remove him from the ballot, and ensure he dies in prison.”
even convicted felon Dinesh D’Ipshit got into the game. here he is, responding to a tweet by some internet rando.
“Navalny=Trump. The plan of the Biden regime and the Democrats is to ensure their leading political opponent dies in prison. There’s no real difference between the two cases.”
yeah, no.
let’s put this in simple terms so that even the dummies will understand.
Navalny is a hero. Trump is a zero.
Alexei Navalny is the textbook definition of a political prisoner. Navalny was a growing threat to an autocrat’s hold on power, and so Putin — after unsuccessfully trying to poison him — had him arrested on a pretext, subjected to a show trial and chucked into a Siberian penal colony.
Little Donny Diaperstain, on the other hand, is the textbook definition of a lifelong grubby criminal who finally got caught, criming across so many jurisdictions that his entire summer is going to be spent shuttling from one courtroom to the next.
them’s the facts.
but Republicans want their foot soldiers to believe that Donny can’t possibly be guilty of crimes, because the GOP is now a Trumpist cult, and that’s how cults work: Dear Leader is infallible — literally nothing he does can be a crime — and therefore any prosecution of Dear Leader can only be politically motivated.
the murder of Navalny has given them a new hook on which to hang this lunacy.
I’m sorry to be the one to break this to you nitwits, but the prosecutions of Donald Trump are not politically motivated. Joe Biden isn’t pulling strings from the Oval Office. Letitia James does not take orders from the Department of Justice. Merrick Garland isn’t telling Fani Willis what to do. the Man Who Indicts War Criminals in The Hague is not calculating judgement amounts for Arthur Engoron.
the simple truth is that Dear Leader is a shitty little criminal who finally got caught and is for the first time in his privileged life actually facing consequences.
them’s the facts.
you don’t like it? boo fucking hoo. better luck with your next cult leader.
here’s the thing: you know how Trump is always yammering away about how, as president, he should have total immunity from prosecution for anything, ever?
imprisoning a political rival and engineering his murder — the very thing that Vlad Putin just got away with — is exactly what presidential immunity looks like.
of the candidates, the one wetting his pants with glee as he talks about how much he can’t wait to throw his opponents in prison isn’t Joe Biden. it’s that other guy, the one with the fluorescent clown makeup and the what the fuck even is that on top of his big dumb pumpkin head.
hell, Trump’s own lawyers have advanced the preposterus notion that Donny has the right to order Seal Team Six to take out his political “enemies.”
but please, worthless scribblers of the press, tell us again how it’s Joe Biden’s age that’s the real issue in this election.
The Independent properly addressed a head line towards the GOP… “Navalny’s death has shown Speaker Mike Johnson up as a coward” Navalny was willing to take on Putin…Johnson cowers and caves to Marjorie Taylor Greene…
If Biden were Putin and Trump were Navalny, Trump would have been under the prison by sundown on Inauguration Day 2021 for his efforts to stop the transfer of power. This is only hard to grasp if you’re in a cult.
