Good, don't need another Jan 6th with the Trumpanzees smearing more feces on the wall. Thankfully COVID took out a lot of their crazier numbers and some of the worst are rotting away in federal prison as they should be from being charged for Jan 6th.

Trump being charged for the criminal he is would be a great step forward in healing the country. Still a long, long ways to go but we need politicians to be held accountable. Especially when their actions directly caused the deaths of several service members, like Trump did when he revealed locations of undercover military members.

Good riddance, throw away the key.

It's trumpiots so anything could happen but I imagine those protests will be whiny, silly but basically peaceful. (What are they going to do, smash the jail and hide their god king in a trailer?)

[–] dope@beehaw.org 9 points 1 year ago

What are they going to do? Like you said, anything could happen, but the record shows posting a gallows to hang representatives, breaking into the capital, and charging through federal grounds, looking for Mike Pence to hang. Scary stuff.

Also, starting July 1st, Florida is going to be a permitless concealed carry state. Anyone who can own a gun (read: everyone), will be allowed to carry freely. No training or background checks required.

Trump will win the Primary, General and become president no matter what the left throws at him. Keep trying!

[–] WhiteOakBayou@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I agree with you he is by far the most likely choice on the primary.

It's sad how many people want him rotting away in Jail. Can you imagine if Trump went to Jail. He would be a Star among everyone. Libs would get even more mad!

[–] Lauchs@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No one should go to jail if they are popular!

Sure, he might have stolen classified documents, lied about doing so, hidden them from authorities, had other people lie about them, hid them from his own lawyer but people like him! Leave ~~Britney~~ trump alone!

[–] jcb2016@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yep, I agree

Please, at very least read the indictment.

Also an audio version: https://pca.st/fsq0sld1

[–] jcb2016@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Dam, that audio version puts things into perspective. I don't think you can fight against that

[–] stumbling_sober@vlemmy.net 3 points 1 year ago

He would be a star among everyone...already in prison. That doesn't have a great ring to it.
