I don’t have business before the supreme court but I sure as hell have an interest in their rulings. We all do! That’s such a BS defense they and others make.

PenguinJuice , to Politics in Are Democrats Tricking Republicans Into Nominating Trump?

Please don't. Can't we just have normal, moderate, Yount candidates from both parties? Has our political system really become a nasty game like this where we champion poopy doopies for eternity?

I would also like it if political campaigns lasted less than two years. A lot of countries have strict laws against campaigning outside of a specified election season.

They bury the lede. These friends are not parties before him as a Justice of the Court.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that some of his friends have been beneficiaries of some of Thomas' rulings.

Why? They’re a bunch of crypto-Confederates. Losing is in their blood.

btaf45 ,

I'm not worried in the slightest. I really don't mind if some idiots want to take themselves out of circulation. Like the guy who shot an FBI office in Ohio for Trump and was shot dead by police. One less Convicted Sex Offender Treason Trump voter.

spaceghoti OP ,

So I guess we don’t need to be concerned with the people they hurt along the way. Great reasoning there.

btaf45 ,

They usually just get themselves killed by law enforcement professionals which takes them out of circulation. I'm just saying nobody needs to be scared of these idiots. There are dozens of things more likely to kill you than a Crybaby Trump idiot. So be "concerned" if you wish to, but be more concerned about heart disease killing you. Looking at facts and statistics is indeed great reasoning.

spaceghoti OP ,

They don’t tend to be killed by the cops until after they’ve already hurt someone else. So no, I don’t see that as a viable solution.

Not the last 2 guys. One guy shot the side of an FBI building. The other guy issued threats and then started a gun battle when the cops came. In both cases the cops got a clean kill. Don't be afraid of Crybaby Trump idiots. They are way more likely to kill themselves than you.

…a man named Lindsey?

I don’t know, sounds kinda woke.

keeb420 , to Politics in Lindsey Graham: Don’t Indict Trump, or Impeach Him, or Vote Against Him

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.

spaceghoti OP ,

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.

spaceghoti OP , to Politics in Jack Smith Wants to Put Trump on Trial Before the Election

A personal appeal: please don’t feed the trolls. Just block them. The more you respond the more you vindicate their desire to feel persecuted.

ThatWeirdGuy1001 ,
@ThatWeirdGuy1001@sh.itjust.works avatar

They should feel persecuted. They’re being persecuted for being dog shit human beings and I feel like we shouldn’t hide that. Shame them into understanding not only are they horrible people but that the rest of us aren’t gonna put up with it

spaceghoti OP ,

I mean, there is an argument to be made that discrimination is not only legal but also appropriate when dealing with criminal anti-social behavior.

theroz , to Politics in U.S. v. Trump Is the Most Important Criminal Prosecution in American History

The first line, "Two and a half years ago, Americans of good conscience… "

I’m sure this won’t be a biased article.

funkless ,

how unbiased can you be against things that are obviously wrong? “but what about all the good things Vlad the Impaler did?!”

Hexadecimalkink ,

Trump sucked but the tactics the media uses to make Trump supporters look bad only serves to push them farther away from what the author considers “good conscience”

I dunno, they tend to support things like taking away rights from folk, so that makes them pretty bad people to begin with.

Pratai , to Politics in Republicans Already Told Us Impeachment Is Revenge for Trump

Remember when the cowardservatives all claimed that the left would lose their collective shit if they didn’t win the election? And that if the conservatives lost, they’d do it with class and dignity?

Seriously…. Is there anything they say that actually honest?

They need to be dismantled, brought to justice, and exiled for weaponizing our system of law because they didn’t like the outcome.

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.

Chainweasel , to Politics in Are Democrats Tricking Republicans Into Nominating Trump?

Why in the living fuck would we do that?

spaceghoti OP ,

Because Republicans can never accept accountability for their own actions. So they’re always going to blame us.

Staccato , to Politics in Palin’s Civil War Threat a Sign of Very Bad Things to Come

The Trumpist wing of the GOP evidently just wants to burn their own country to the ground at this point.

DeepFriedDresden ,

Well it's a good strategy for them. Look at all the middle eastern countries that have had their governments undermined and destroyed through US military might. Who fills the power vacuum in those countries now? Religious zealots.

PowerCrazy ,

America should be burned to the ground though.

YaaAsantewaa , to Politics in Trump Supporter Charged With Threatening to Kill Trump’s Trial Judge

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

whiskeypickle ,
@whiskeypickle@lemmy.ml avatar

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
