It took less than 24 hours after Judge Arthur Engoron ordered Ivanka Trump to testify in the financial fraud trial swamping the Trump Organization in a Manhattan courtroom for Donald Trump to blow his top and lash out at the jurist.On Friday, Engoron ruled that the president's oldest daughter must o...
A short stay in jail won’t break Donnie. It will energize his followers, and we’ll have to hear them comparing him to Mandela and MLK for the next century.

All his followers look in the mirror every morning. He is their ego projected. They will feel rage vicariously as if they were the ones being robbed of their dignity and dig in further.
Sounds hilarious.
More seriously, these people are lost. There is little purpose in trying to convert them, anyone hanging onto Trump now is either so incredibly ignorant we should just try to stem their paint-chip eating habit, so stupid they shouldn’t be allowed to order appetizers unsupervised, or basically just fantastically bad, as in “I don’t care if the world burns as long as I make a tidy sum before we collectively have to close up shop.”
I’ve taken to publically shaming my maga family members into temporary Facebook silence. It’s cathartic after a particularly frustrating work day.
They always bounce back to their old form after not-too-long, which just provides another opportunity to catharticallly wail on them.
“These people” are a fairly large percent of the country. Certainly enough to get him elected again. Wailing about them being lost, ignorant, and stupid doesn’t change that fact. Ignore them at your own peril.
It’s not that they’re a particularly large portion of the country, it’s that they have outsized power thanks to the electoral college and it’s easier to disenfranchise dem voters. I’m not wailing about them, so much as stating fact. If 4 years of the chaos of Trump, cozying up to dictators, the million+ dead from COVID that didn’t need to happen, the complete tanking of the economy and causing rampant inflation, an attempted coup/insurrection, many of his own staff saying he’s not fit, Fox News turning against him (privately, but those texts all got released, thanks Dominion), a rape conviction, a fraud conviction, him spilling military secrets on tape, him stealing and attempting to hide classified docs, and now the likelihood that he’s going to likely be jailed or under house arrest while trying to campaign for president, if all of that isn’t enough to convince someone to not vote for Trump, what will?
The point of the comment was essentially don’t bother with these people, the only answer is to vote dem in '24, and get as many people as you can to do the same. Things are stacked towards Republicans by nature of the system, you can ignore trying to change these people’s minds because idk anything will at this point, but you can’t sit it out or not vote dem this time around.
They’re roughly half of all voters. You’ll have to contend with that fact at some point.
That’s the problem, they’re not roughly half of all voters, but as previously stated have outside power. As for contending with them, the only thing to do is vote dem and start changing policies. Republicans, especially with a majority control of basically anything, are a policy failure on multiple levels.
Trump received 47% of the popular vote last election, i.e., roughly half. That has nothing to do with the electoral college, that means that roughly half of all voters voted for Trump to receive a second term, and there’s polling to suggest he would receive more than that if the election was held today.
Regardless of your feelings about them, they’re roughly 1 out of every 2 voters in this country. You can’t just hand wave that fact away because you don’t like them.

I thought obama was the antichrist apparent
And clinton
And the other clin - no wait she was pedo queen
I remember many years ago - while Clinton was still president - some idiot I knew said Hillary Clinton was the anti-christ and I started listing all of the people over the years they’d called the anti-christ at various times, then I asked them, ‘doesn’t the Bible say the anti-christ would be beloved by the masses?’
They replied with, ‘well…maybe’.
I said, ‘it does, and if you actually read that book you’d know that.’
These people are just children, not credible adults, walking around saying idiotic nonsense and we need to start calling them out until they shut the fuck up in shame.
He already compared himself to Mandela.
I think some wag already said they’d be fine with the comparison - throw him in prison for 27 years.
Can we get the universe where he dies in prison?
I’d be okay with calling him Mandela if he gets 27 years.
He’s going to live to 102 or something?

If I were the judge I’d give him a pass on the jail time if he submits to a impartial medical exam to show if he is fit to spend time incarcerated.
Win/win. He can’t run for office if he’s too old and feeble to spend a night on a hard cot.

No
Then why’d you say the thing?
as his followers go, he even might compare himself to good ol’ Adolf and the maga crowd will cheer…
I hope that doesn’t deter people from wanting him punished, because that fact alone shows why punishment is so important. It’s about something greater than the provincial minds of petty little men who only care about themselves. It’s about ensuring reality does not work in their favor. It’s about creating the just world.
A just world like Pala from aldous Huxleys:The island? Good read, highly recommended if you share the same mindset as me. Which, although not quite as far along the journey as me, you seem to.
Oh well. Still, do it.
And don’t you guys have like… rich people jail in the states? Where he can play golf n shit?
