Bad headline because it implies Harris or "the media" did something wrong, when it's just his typical schtick of demanding someone be jailed for something that isn't illegal.

... All of which also means we stop focusing on jailing him for things that are illegal.

He can’t comprehend a person respecting rules. He thinks everyone else is must be as guilty as he is.

Yuup. The crime of the century.

Why is he so mad all the time? Dude, just stop being so angry.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

It's a pretty common symptom of dementia.

Anger, fear, and hate are the language his followers speak. They wouldn't follow The Dude, they'd follow Walter, just exchange golf for bowling and put him in a diaper.

These racist rants actually work on his base, I’m assuming?

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 13 points 6 days ago

the fact news companies don't headline this as Trump "railing against free speech" is absolute journalistic malpractice.

[–] EleventhHour@lemmy.world 18 points 6 days ago

Obviously, Kamala is guilty of everything Trump has done. Duh.

"IMPEACHED, PROSECUTED, or BOTH!" - he sure likes to talk about his own accomplishments, doesn't he?
