47363. Ms. No - 6/4/2024 12:34:56 AM Unanimous verdict on every one of the 34 counts.
Love that it happened. Still terrified.
Not a single member of the sitting GOP will publicly uphold the verdict. We've got two Supreme Court justices who have all but publicly declared they believe the 2020 election was invalid, and another Federal Judge in Florida who is doing nearly everything within her power to throw the trial against Trump with the strongest evidence of criminal - if not treasonous - activity.
Do they (the GOP) think that once they're back in total power that everyone will just go back to believing in the integrity of the system?
I'm trying not to despair. I hold out hope that if we can just get through this next election, that by the time 2028 rolls around Trump will be too old, too sick, too imprisoned, or too dead to run. 47364. Ms. No - 6/4/2024 12:35:16 AM btw -- good to see you winston! 47365. thoughtful - 7/2/2024 12:53:45 PM Just stopped in...I'm in mourning.
I never thought I'd live to see the end of our Constitutional Republic. And only a few days away from when we declared our independence from a king, this SC grants the president the powers of a king.
I'm sicker than I was when I found out tump won in 2016. What evil he has wrought...what evil his supporters have unleashed on this nation.
I can't think of any way out of this that isn't violent. Once you've given up the rule of law, I don't see how you get it back without war or revolt. Especially with authoritarianism rolling like a wave across so many countries.
Heaven help us. 47366. vonKreedon - 7/2/2024 1:12:20 PM Heaven help us, amen. 47367. Ms. No - 7/4/2024 8:14:39 PM I'm sick and I'm angry and despairing.
Saw an admonition to cancel subscriptions to the NYT because they call for Biden to step aside but not convicted felon Trump.
I don't know how we fix/save our media. The constant bombardment of bullshit about Biden sells ads, but when Trump wins they'll be out of jobs and many of them behind bars if they don't print what he likes.
I'm disgusted with the SC, but I am holding out at least a slim hope that if the question comes before them about Jan 6, that they find advocating a hostile takeover of Congress is not an official presidential act. 47368. vonKreedon - 7/22/2024 11:03:34 PM Here's a thought out of left field; Adam Kinzinger as Harris' VP, helping to bring the votes of anti-Trump Repubs and Independents who are reluctant to vote for a Dem ticket. 47369. Ms. No - 8/3/2024 2:32:11 AM Oh, that might be a really good one ---- I just don't remember if I liked his politics in general before he started calling out Trump and the MAGA set. I mean, I assume I'd consider him a moderate Republican, but I honestly don't know.
