GOP: Why Have A Justice System If Durham Can’t Convict Sussmann?

Trump is the most anti-American, toxic POS to ever come down the pike.

“That’s why the 2016 plotters walk free while the January 6 defendants rot in jail without trial or bail.”

Did a mob break into the Capitol of The United States of America in 2016? I must of missed that. Those Clintons are good. Broke in and no one saw them.

And the complainers never stop to note that for all of these supposed efforts of the Clinton campaign to sabotage Trump, the FBI investigation was secret until after the election, and Trump prevailed.

Jury nullification in the case of the Malheur fuckwads = “we won on the merits!”
“You don’t have evidence for a goddamn thing in what is clearly a political prosecution of a democrat” = OMG IT’S JURY NULLERIFICMINICATION AND THAT’S HORRRRRRIBLE!

There could be some subconscious reverse psychology here. What happens if Trump is tried on federal charges in a DC court?

The 2022 ReThugs are owning the philosophy of Putin’s Russia more every day with this “What’s mine is mine and what’s yours is also mine !” attitude.

So now there is no justice unless ReThugs walk and Democratic Patriots hang from the gallows. Sounds like the GOP have fully converted to Tory supporters of King George or United Russia supporters of Vladimir Putin. They all need to be expunged from the American Body Politic or we need to re-name the place after Putin’s nickname for us “Dunbfuckistan”.

“Our Legal System is CORRUPT, our Judges (and Justices!) are highly partisan, compromised or just plain scared, our Borders are OPEN, our Elections are Rigged, Inflation is RAMPANT, gas prices and food costs are ‘through the roof,’ our Military ‘Leadership’ is Woke, our Country is going to HELL, and Michael Sussmann is not guilty,” he wrote on TRUTH Social.

TFG is fucking nuts.

I see a headline that Amber Heard is heartbroken.

So, I’m guessing… justice was served today …?

Why is it, they ask, that Democrats get off so easy? Could it be that the entire system is rigged in their favor? Are trials held in the nation’s capital by nature bound to go in favor of the left?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm, never hear this kind of talk when police officers murder people on camera and yet are found “not guilty”…

Correct spelling and punctuation lead me to believe this was written for him.
The vilification may have been dictated, however.
