Rapidcreek , to Politics in Lindsey Graham: Don’t Indict Trump, or Impeach Him, or Vote Against Him

We already decided this at the ballot box. And during trump’s impeachments, you said they should be decided in the courts.

Here we are.

“You can’t indict a sitting president, that’s what impeachment is for.”

“You can’t impeach a sitting president, that’s what the election is for.”

“You can’t impeach the president again now that he’s lost the election, that’s what the justice system is for.”

“You can’t indict someone running for president, that’s what the next election is for.”

"You can't nominate a Supreme Court Justice during an election"

Followed quickly by “of course you can nominate a Supreme Court Justice during an election.”

I thought they wanted law and order and people to stand up for.the rule of law?

Oh wait. This just in they are hypocrites in everything.

From Francis Wilhoit:

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit:

There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

you’re changing the game in America

Wrong, you spineless fucktard. Republicans already changed the game when you decided that a lying, misogynistic, treasonous, con-artist, tiny-penised, reality show moron is the best person to lead your party.

This is not weaponizing the law…it is the proper application of the law because the piece of shit VIOLATED THE LAW. It’s time he rots in prison for it. Graham should just shut the fuck up.

The real sad outcome of all of this…people still listen to Graham and still vote for him — as they do with Trump. One day the world will be rid of all of these idiots.

I hope both of them die in prison.

At the rate things have been moving, I just hope Trump lives to see prison.

This is why Trump was dangerous for Democracy, he enabled psychopathic transphobic, racist and bigoted weirdos like this and encouraged this kind of behavior

I honestly don’t know what to say anymore, if these incidents don’t convince you that Trump and his supporters are human trash then nothing will

He’s dangerous for everything and everyone, including his own supporters, who often end up either in jail, or even dead, because they were followers of his. Even his lawyers end up getting screwed just because they worked for him.

YaaAsantewaa ,

Yeah, I didn’t mean to imply it was simply just this which I guess I sort of did, he’s just dangerous in general, and this is example

Sadly, I’m sure this won’t be the last time this happens.

    They need to throw the book at Trump and all of the other fascist pricks that think that it's acceptable to trample all over our democracy and legal system. I'm sick of treating these fuckers with kid gloves, especially when so many people have been jailed (or worse) for far less.

    And with a captured Court, there’s actually no legal way to stop them if they take the Presidency again.

    Fixbeat , to Politics in ‘Lock Them Up’ Is Now the Republican Party’s Highest Goal

    GOP is going to do as many despicable things as they can, no matter what. Might as well prosecute an obvious and blatant criminal like Trump. I don’t think we can afford not to lock him up.

    e_t_ Admin , to Politics in ‘Lock Them Up’ Is Now the Republican Party’s Highest Goal

    You know the death cult won't stop at locking people up. Not for long, anyway. There are actual Nazis among them. It's only a matter of time 'til they start gassing people.

    KpntAutismus ,

    they have literally threatened to kill trans people, i think there is reason for concern.

    No, it's not. Why are you lying, NY times? Was it worth it for a clickbait headline?

    Their goal is power at any cost.

    Tell the truth. It doesn't hurt you.

    My bad, Ny mag then, whoever they are.

    TheMage , to Politics in ‘Lock Them Up’ Is Now the Republican Party’s Highest Goal

    It’s fresh hearing that republicans want to use the justice system as a weapon. Uh huh. Because, well, take a look at what the Democrats are doing. Oh…that. They’ve been using the justice system to go after Donnie for years now and aren’t done yet. Maybe that story got missed. LOL.

    I’m sorry to see you have severe brain damage.
