The “idiots” leading those places are usually educated so they can write the narrative to keep the real idiots uneducated so they’ll keep voting them in
sure it's unenforceable, doesn't mean Texas isn't going to pull over all the brown and black folks they can in the attempt to enforce it though, and those pullovers will result in a drastic uptick in violent illegal apprehensions and asset forfeitures, which racist texans will see as a net benefit. texans by and large are fucking racists, and this is just more racist shit that racists do.
No, the time for proving things already happened in the multitude of court appearances where proof was required and nothing materialized. This is just another deflection.
I like the tactic. Scapegoat them so they can be tried as well and end up in a cell right next to him. Counsel can be given, acting on it and unleashing a hoard of your MAGA retards on Washington DC is another thing entirely. Where are his kids? They need to be charged too!!
Still not serious about all this, huh. I have a hard time telling if he's legitimately losing it or just playing around hoping to run out the clock. Probably a combination of both, but this just seems like the worst way to handle this situation. And yet, he keeps getting away with it.
Running out the clock in his case means running out his own clock. trying to quash the trials after (if) he goes back into office is an extremely risky affair and may not even work against the state prosecutions.
It’s basically what he’s always done, just keep promising salvation just around the corner.
It feels like a lot of people have already forgotten that after the 2020 election, he was going on about “Releasing the Kraken” every few days, as though he had a total gamestopper piece of evidence that he was just sitting on - nothing ever appeared. Before that he let on that he was going to “Drain the swamp” aaaaaany day now, just you wait - except nothing ever happened.
Trump is all about smoke and mirrors and empty promises. And it works for him because once he says it, his followers just believe it, even if he never talks about it again. Tons of Trump supporters still to this day believe that he had unshakable evidence of fraud in the 2020 election, just like tons believe that political corruption dissapeared under Trump, only to re-appear the second Biden took office.
And now all his supporters will believe that Trump is going to prove the election was a fraud, defeat all his indictments, and become president again. And when none of that (or certainly at least not the first two) happens, they’ll just claim the game was rigged and the deep state is responsible. It’s easy to always win when your supporters aren’t willing to consider the possibility that you lost
“My attorneys had a productive meeting with the DOJ this morning, explaining in detail that I did nothing wrong, was advised by many lawyers, and that an Indictment of me would only further destroy our Country,” the (so far) twice-indicted former president posted to his social media website last week.
I wonder if this sticks. If this does stick, it becomes a huge talking point for him being a weak, ineffectual non-leader. He could actually be throwing himself under the bus, politically speaking.
Putin playing hockey in his late 60's and "scoring" all those goals against the professional hockey players is such an illusion. And so is the Strongman Trump pretends to be, until he is asked to serve in the military, then he has bone spurs. Ow ow ow.
He is a criminal who worked with Republicans to steal the election from the people.
This is an interesting inversion of the fascist doctrine that the enemy are both really strong and also really weak. Only here Trump and co are applying to themselves -- they're both super powerful and the only hope and also completely weak and ineffectual and always being led astray by the deep state or poor guidance from their own lawyers.
I wonder if this will work as well on their followers.
Headline is crap, he deflected the question by answering that he doesn’t believe Trump will be the nominee. Sure he hasn’t “ruled it out”, but any other response would imply he thinks Trump will win.
Or he could say "I will not vote for trump if he's the Republican nominee" if he wasn't a coward. Deflecting away from the question might as well answer it in the affirmative. As is, he's just pussyfooting around saying he won't vote for the guy who encouraged the mob that wanted to hang him, so anything less than condemnation might as well be tacit consent...
