SCOTUS will not bail him out.

And each morning I awake to the hope that the dotard will stroke out, saying “What’s that smell?” just before he face-plants into his morning bowl of Capt. Crunch.

Funny how the 2000 Rehnquist-Thomas SCOTUS was so eager to take up the political question of Bush v. Gore. The current Alito-Thomas court in the case of Smith v. Trump? Not so much, and both Rehnquist and Thomas should have recused themselves in 2000, just as Thomas once again has a conflict of interest two decades later:

The arguments for or against showing tfg’s twitters continue. Thinking they should be seen and appreciated for the pure insanity. This was another part of tfg’s beautiful Christmas rant from CNN:

“World Leaders, both good and bad, but none of which are as evil and ‘sick’ as the THUGS we have inside our Country.” In a final slam at Biden and Smith, Trump wrote, “MAY THEY ROT IN HELL. AGAIN, MERRY CHRISTMAS!”

Meanwhile, here’s Joe’s holiday message from CNN:

“This Christmas Eve, my wish for you and your family is that you take a few moments of quiet reflection and find that stillness that’s at the center of the Christmas story,” Biden wrote on X. “May you find peace in this silent night. And warmth from those surrounding you.”

2024 GOP Hopeful Faces Backlash After Sharing Christmas Photo Showing Ornaments of Democrats in Nooses (msn.com)

A Republican congressional candidate expressed regret after posting an image of a Christmas tree decorated with ornaments showing Democrats in nooses.

The image shared by former West Virginia state lawmaker Derrick Evans, which was quickly deleted, showed tiny versions of politicians like President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, former President Barack Obama, and Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., hanging from nooses. A Trump ornament looks on and appears to be approving the hangings with his hand raised.

And a coward of course
After his post to X was screenshot and received backlash, Evans claimed it wasn’t his tree and the image of the president hanging by a noose wasn’t the best way to celebrate Christmas.

“Not my tree. Not my ornaments. Not in good taste,” Evans wrote in a post. “NOT a call for violence. I shouldn’t have used a day to celebrate the birth of Jesus for anything political (good taste or poor taste). Let’s go celebrate this time with our families in love and peace.”
