    What a piece of shit. This dude clearly doesn’t understand or care how this country is meant to work. I guess fuck the voters, right?

    So can this officially be used as a confession? Or will it be spun off as just another piece of Bs by this idiot?

  3. jack smith saw this coming, that’s why he had the superseding indictment.

    the supreme court gave trump a favor with a broad immunity ruling for presidential acts — now of course the felon donald trump is playing into that for his legal strategy.

    And nothing will happen. If and only if that orange turd gets in office, there might just be a ww3. How can someone do so much criminal BS to get a free pass and then might be elected to the WH.

    What a fucked up time line to be alive.

  5. So, republicans who spent years twisting themselves in knot to explain how he didn’t do this….where you at?

    He maybe had a right to “meddle “ legally. But he went at it in the most extreme disgusting way. There was NOTHING legal about the way he tried to overthrow the election.

    TRUMP: “I have every right to get an extra helping of chicken nuggets! I was President!”

    PRISON COOK: …

  8. This all simply stems from his belief that he has “an Article II where I have the right to do whatever I want as president.”

    That is what he wanted to do. End of argument.

    [When he first said this ](https://theweek.com/speedreads/854487/trump-have-article-2-where-have-right-whatever-want-president)i I laughed for two reasons.

    First, because who the fuck talks like that? “I have an article II…” What an idiot.

    Second, because that’s not what article II says. Like at all. No serious legal scholar would ever say that.

    Turns out, 6 Supreme Court Justices pretty much agreed with him.

    So joke’s on me, I guess.

  9. Ensuring election fairness might be a legitimate presidential concern, but “find me 11,780 votes so I can win” is not.

  10. “Meddle” makes it sound like he was gently poking things with a stick.

    Dude had his idiot mob storm the Capitol.

  11. “Colonel Jessep, did you order the Code Red?”

    “You’re goddamn right I did!”

    In the dark recesses of Trump’s mind, this line from “A Few Good Men” has probably been percolating for some time. He might not be able to help himself from saying it out loud once in a while.

    A hot mic moment would be telling.

  12. What’s the point? The guy confesses, yet we are still waiting for justice to do something about it 🤦‍♀️

  13. I have to ask what *exactly* gives him the right to commit election interference, a crime literally any other presidential candidate would immediately be disqualified upon discovery for?

  14. Here’s what I don’t get. For someone who’s whole “thing” is around strength – this guy whines more than a hungry puppy without its momma. 

    How do big make manly alpha MAGAs square that? This guy is such a crybaby! You want a snowflake maga? Your guy is king snowflake!

  15. More charges or bombshells incoming. He’s getting ahead of news of some new god awful heresy against the country he’s committed. 

    Just another day in America….

  16. Doesn’t he know bragging about one’s crimes is how so many fellow criminals end up in prison?

    Oh please Supreme Court, give us your thoughts. Is our entire election process just up to the whims of this perverse asshole. Would you let Biden do it? Under your rulings, sounds like Biden can just appoint Harris.

    Right?

    I know Smith is on it– and this will be used against him in court….

    Its so frustrating the guy literally admitted to the crime he is charged with on national television and nothing happens.

    They won’t ask him about it during the debate. THey won’t ask about is other convictions. Its all soooo…. Frustrating.

  19. Can we please stop giving this man more attention? He doesn’t care what kind of attention, he’s stolen the spotlight from Kamala and that is a great great campaign contribution you guys are feeding into by posting this crap constantly

  20. Funny thing…back in the day, when some dudes were unhappy with the way British government was doing its thing, they left. They settled in a new country, and eventually took it from the people who were there before them. Perhaps the MAGAs should keep the tradition alive and consider a similar course of action.
