Just saying this would end a Democrat's career. With the quickness.
There was a time when it would've ended any politician's career. We're just so far beyond the pale now.
Chris Christie has an anecdote about the 2016 primaries: he was watching the interview where Trump said John McCain wasn't a hero because heroes don't get caught. After hearing that, Christie picked up the phone, called Jeb Bush, and said, "I guess it's just you and me now. One of us is going to be president, and one of us is going to be vice president." Because anyone else saying that in 2016 would've been career-ending.
Now that the whole party has formed around Trump, anyone in the Republican party can say shit like this these days.
There was a time when it would've ended any politician's career.
Yep. But it's notable that it now only applies to one side.
When a single pic surfaced of Al Franken making a gesture his political career was immediately ruined.
This dude has a long, well documented history of raping children and bragging about sexual assault yet here we are.
And what was the reaction to his little joke? Did people laugh and clap? Were they like "haha! You're gonna murder all of us! You're so funny, Donald!"
Yea it does, if Dem take back and actually impeach him and his cohorts they will get the relief. Because he definitely won't give it to them.
As the MAJORITY in Congress The White House and The Supreme Court you ONLY will get Relief if we WIN! INSTEAD of NOW when you Need it!
-LITERALLY Republicans!
… when the Republicans ALREADY HAVE CONTROL of the House, Senate, Judiciary, and POTUS
So, adding blackmail to the list
isn’t it more extortion than blackmail tho?
He fuckin LOVES the uneducated... but even they can't be this dumb.
Right? Right Ani???
They put on diapers over their clothes for him
Doesn't matter, this time around he's rigging it way harder than last time. He's been messing with it for months already.
Well dab gum folks, hurry-cane relief, $5k buckaroos, $9k for my pregnunt ladee to stay put at home and clean my undies. And all I gots tu-do is vote Trump?
M'eggs!!!!!!!
This fucking asshole needs to get carted off to prison.
He should be in prison for probably over 300 valid reasons so far and has served exactly 0 minutes
My hope is that history will remember him accurately, and every stolen penny will be clawed back from all of his hell spawn children.
I know I have better odds of winning the powerball, but I still dream.
Hey man, the chickens always come home to roost... eventually.
Well he did have to go in for that photo-op of a booking. The one where I'm sure he practiced for a while to look like a tough guy in his mugshot.
Which should have never been allowed to be taken like it was, by the way. It is so clearly a pose. The people taking the pic should have waited until he was in a more candid moment. Just showing more Republican privilege...
I'd say a fiesta with pinata is in order like the one mussolini had.
I should add that he should be carted off to prison and be thankful that we have a system of laws in this country that prevents him from being dealt mob justice.
Remind me why over 340 million people allow him to be their president

Probably has a lot to do with it.
Done you question mah ability to read stuffs. /s
"I remember Cooper was your governor when you had Helene," he observed. "They call it the biggest water hurricane — it was all water.
He's on fire!
That sounds like an impeachable crime
That Democrats will never act on.
Probably because nothing will happen when they're in the minority.
When they had a majority they impeached him.
Twice.

Even when they had power, they couldn't hold the line with their centrist own and be unified in something as simple as impeaching a asshole.
You'll forgive me if I think the Democratic leadership is shit.
They impeached him.
Senate failed to convict him because the republicans had the majority there.
Not even remotely the point or argument I was making but guess well see how many shitty moderate Democrats will vote no for impeachment again.
It'll probably be Fetterman that switches parties this time.
What exactly was your point?
Put it on the list. He's gonna rape a child on live tv because he's too demented to realise he's not at home and americans go: i mean, he's not a woman at least
It puts the lotion on its skin or it gets no home, again.
Learned his politics from Epstein
just like those very real $5k ~~bribes~~ “payments” he’s promising after the midterms.
If you give a bully what they want they turn on you. 100% of the time
Do not be tricked by these lies
Do not be tricked by these lies
There's an old saying in Tennessee - I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee - that says, fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again.
What's another two months?
Trump was in North Carolina to stump for Whatley and other Republicans in the state, which is still recovering from the aftereffects of Hurricane Helene two years ago. Democrats haven’t won a Senate seat in the state since 2008, but Democrat Roy Cooper is ahead in all of the state’s major polls, making Trump’s presence in North Carolina almost a requirement for the state GOP
Too many dumb voters in the NC Oblast and they will continue to support Krasnov.
