Nice to see piling on and no one deserves it better than TFG even though I suppose it may help him make the case for continuances, delaying until after the 2024 election in the hope of winning POTUS and taking his revenge.

And, baring a catastrophic medical event, I am absolutely convinced he will be the GOP nominee: Many in Republican leadership may believe they can’t win with Trump but truthfully they can’t win without him – e.g., Trump holds big lead over field – so their only path is to stick with him and make it increasingly difficult for Democrats to vote in swing states while sewing (sic) the field with bogus third party ‘moderate’ candidates, a tactic that cryptoGOP/oligarch-financed groups like No Labels and Third Way will doubtlessly assist.

I live in a fairly safe blue state but already am planning my support directions for the year ahead and that includes other states; we’ll win this but taking nothing for granted.

the Carroll defamation suit is just a speck in a long list of legal troubles and lawsuits, many serious

To a normal person any lawsuit would be serious. But to the Career Criminal from Queens the seriousness of a lawsuit is measured on a sliding scale.

Says everything anyone would need to know about him.

… Adding Onto Trump’s Busy 2024

Like he’s ever doing something constructive?
Donnie is fully occupied settling outstanding debts, paying (or, as he would have it, trying to stiff his creditors) for things he’s already enjoyed the full use of.

If Trump goes down, life as we know it will end. Therefore, saving his own skin is an act of the highest altruism. You’re welcome.

Absolutely.

It could be a weird electoral season: on any given evening you see a Trump TV ad, immediately followed by a “breaking news” feature on the latest indictment or subpoena. These will be spiced up by The Donald’s most recent document search result.

OK, so far the Orange Asshole (and draft dodger) is liable (guilty) for sexual assault, and will probably be found guilty in the future of the accused crimes of fixing his books to hide payments to a porn star, tax evasion as a result of said fixing, election interference in Georgia, and causing the largest insurrection in the history of the Republic. Oh yeah, and then there’s the little matter of espionage and endangering our national security. And the fucking Republicans are still backing him up, and claiming that all this is just deep state fake news. Well, I hope the American People are wise enough to see that this man never holds any public office again.

Sadly though, about 25% of voters think all this is fine as long as MAGA prevails. This proves my long held belief that many American should be denied the vote because they’re dumb as a box of rocks.We either need a new form of government (Democratic Socialism based on the Nordic model) or we need tests to determine who is competent to vote.

I have little faith in the future, but at 79, I’m starting not to care!

He doesn’t do any damn thing now, other than running his mouth. I don’t see that stopping any time soon.

These are not normal times

here’s the choice

democrat and hope to save the republic

republican devolve into an authoritarian state

It’s a binary choice in 2024 you don’t have to like it but there you are

anything other than a vote for D is a vote for R

That includes not voting.

All of life’s choices, all of them are between the lesser of two evils, anyone over the age of 16 who doesn’t understand this has serious moral or mental problems life’s choices are never chemotherapy or candy canes if they were everyone would choose the latter grow the **** ** up.

Clown time is over the EC is rigged in favor of the fascists neutrality and third choices are no longer an option.

The same why can’t we be civil crowd as they work to take away our rights.

What we have is too much dependent on the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ model. The term “public servant” (as a synonym for politician) is out of date.

John is deeply concerned about the outcome of Donnie’s travails.
According to David Dennison, John was also holding on to NDI that he refused to give back and cannot recognize the difference between a recorded diary and a US military plan to invade a country.

For all the attorneys he has there’s not one he listens to when they tell him to STFU, but that’s the thing about psychopaths. Among other traits they love the sound of their own voice.
