Laurence Tribe: Imagine Trump making that deranged speech wearing an orange jumpsuit or

even just ankle bracelets. It might lose some of its luster if the mob in front of him were to see the system of justice holding him accountable to the rule of law as the ordinary delusional citizen he is . .

That's why he's making it. He fears the orange jumpsuit. Gaugamela Sep 2022 #4
That is all we can do is imagine. CentralMass Sep 2022 #5
Can't. Too busy imagining (21+ months) of him being indicted. Still waiting. Hotler Sep 2022 #6
It would do the exact opposite, they would see Trump as a victim, and rally around him. Meadowoak Sep 2022 #7

to show the depravity at those Nazi/Klan rallies.

The rallies should not be given live coverage, but the things said and the behavior should be the #1 top headline in every paper and on every news channel until he is locked up.

I'm so FUCKING sick that he is still running around free to do this! MF45 is organizing and inciting the nazi fascist racists that make up today's republicon party.

The rest of the Republican Party will finally have had enough and come out against Trump and
his minions and save their party.
McConnell and other party Rep.s will have to speak out publicly denouncing TFG.

the upper echelon of elected and appointed office holders, the rich and other classes, the power brokers, don't see traitor as a menace. If freedom of speech were a rubber band, it'd be stretched to breaking for traitor. Same for all of the not-quite-illeagl actions he is getting away with. I say not quite illegal, but in my heart, I know traitor is breaking the law just by existing. And in his corner are haters like abbott, desantis, cruz, rubio, mtg, hawley, other members of the house and senate, the unelected despots on the supreme court, and God knows how many haters entrenched in local and state government. Every time traitor gets to blather in public, who knows how many people he is influencing with his hate speeches? Hasn't he been given enough rope to hang himself? After every one of these rallies, I feel like it'll never stop. This anti-American hate isn't something we can keep ignoring, can't keep hoping it'll go away on its own. Surely to God if traitor has lawyers that keep finding loopholes for his traitorous hate, there are democratic lawyers who can find a loophole to slip around the traitor's ridiculous body.

I think that it could be any hate-filled airbag blabbing treason to the gangs he attracts. Right now, that traitor is the best package to present this attack on our country. As long as we allow hate to go unchallenged, there will be a gang following their dear leader. Pretty sure if he was a Dem, he'd be put down like a mad dog. But he isn't a Dem. Or an r. He is a traitorous mutant and he needs to be struck by lightning.
