      Lol you mean like painting someone as a mentally challenged felon, fraud, a menace to democracy & basic decency, while that someone actually doesn’t deserve it? … Oh wait, he does deserve it

        Of course he does deserve it, the dude is calling a genocider to prevent peace talk. That’s conspiracy to commit genocide, a capital offense.

        Then how comes he’s allowed to run and not in jail? The dems want him around.

          Easier for you to struggle to wrap it up with a tidy bow and keep it simple like that. So you feel in control and not as scared. You seem like a “you know I could be president, I just don’t want to” sort of person.

          You overlook, casually, the endless complexity of this moment and a decision to forcefully take him into custody in what? some sort of extrajudicial action, I imagine you’re implying? No mention of the several trials looking to hold him accountable that were filed long before the election and delayed into limbo by trump and his gangs corrupt manipulation of the lower courts and SCOTUS. So now, if you “put him in jail” and say he’s “not allowed to run” he still wins, because that’s all his defective sycophants need to start slitting the throats of anyone they suspect is “a trans” on sight at the walmart.

          It’s not satisfying, but they are betting on the American people defeating him soundly enough in a democratic vote that they just can’t deny (inside, they’ll still cry fraud and all that, but inside they’ll know) what an unpopular loser he is. We’re fucked either way, at least for awhile, there will be "aftershocks"and drawn out challenge horseshit if he loses by large margins, maybe another flailing coup attempt, but it will pop some balloons if they have to see daddy take another L in his line of many Ls.

          Ty for calling out the non-sense. Somehow accusing Democrats of also being on the take is considered outlandish.

          Theyve got us fighting over scraps (abortion, marriage, the right to express ourselves and love who we want) but they are in full agreement on where most of the tax dollars go (MIC, contracting companies of powerful friends, subsidies for factory farms).

          Gonna have to wake up the dormant Sheeple.
