Well if he's basing America's opinion off the group who doesn't want Trump arrested, then I guess it follows that "the American people" want to hang Mike Pence.

All the GQP use that. I hate every time I hear it. Especially when they use it to state what WE want. They have no clue. And if they do, they do not give one damn if it interferes with their fortunes.

Not that I'll ever be so lucky.

An indictment is just the tease that starts a painfully long, drawn-out process where the courts grant Trump every single delay tactic he can think of (possibly grumbling about it, but still giving it to him) leading up to a possible guilty verdict leading up to Trump being free as a bird until every painfully protracted appeal is pursued, all of this having a good chance of taking more years than Trump will have left in his life to serve some sort of cushy house-arrest sentence (if death by hamberder doesn't take him first).

whether or not somebody should be charged with a crime (and there's probably more people who WANT Trump charged TBH). He's living in different reality than the rest of us.

They want an authoritarian, one-party state - and so do their right-wing Cuban exile accomplices.

Between these two, they're trying to import third world-style politics - and the real problem, is that they have big money behind them (with exceptions).

What happened to that gallows that they brought?????? I would think that the builder's DNA and prints were all over it.
There are still a whole big bunch of questions awaiting answers about that insurrection..........

I can only think, that some uber rich Republican would love to have that on display in some room of his house.....

Of all the pictures I have seen, the one of that gallows, with a hangman's noose, was the most haunting and darkest of all...

incited insurrectionists to kill him and his family in the Capitol on J6. For POTUS!

Not that this reveals anything new.

I'd peg his level of moral functioning at roughly that of typical lieutenants in drug cartels. Remembering tRump's VP repeatedly telling people to go expose themselves to Covid and spread it around their families, their friends and communities, promising all through the first half of 2020 that it'd be gone by Easter, by Memorial Day, by....

Also similar to cartel lieutenants as the kind of strong authoritarian follower of cartel capos who is also himself a ruthless authoritarian leader of little people. Well over a million Americans dead so far...
