Donald Trump Indicted by Manhattan Grand Jury
The story is here.
There is an old saying which goes something like this: Be careful what you wish for; you just might get it.
I have made my opinion clear when this was just a potential indictment. Now that the loons have made the leap the best I can do is quote one of their oiliest, sleaziest “leaders”, Schumer, and observe that they just may reap more whirlwind than they could ever imagine.
Elon Musk said this would assure a Trump Presidency II. I’m inclined to believe that may well be the case.
This is an abject disgrace.

Utterly non-responsive distraction UNLESS you mean that you are the irrational moon-truther.
I am talking about the basic logic underneath your position. What you said makes no sense. You purport to explain the origin of a position, but all you offer is necessarily post-hoc rationalization. There is no way that the chain of logic you expressed can lead to your point of view.
Ah, so to believe that the election was rigged signals “mental imbalance.”
Or, perhaps, the ability to read.
I’m sorry, but if you are an American that either doesn’t vote, or votes for obvious loser also-rans, why should anyone care what you think about this situation?
No, he isn’t.
DeSantis must resign as governor to announce. I could easily live with four more years like the first four under Trump and I could also love watching Dem schemes fail with a Trump re-election.
That seems to be the fear and you mock it.
No, they must do whatever it takes to restore legitimacy.
The Establicons are worried that if they fix election fraud, then some “America First” Republican or a member of the “Freedom Caucus” might get elected. And they surely don’t want that. That might put an end to their graft.
I don’t know what the progress of the bill is, but there’s a Florida bill to remove the prohibition of governors running for other offices during their term.
Not so sure that’s a good idea. A governor running for president can’t really give proper attention to his state.
Yes, that’s the reason for the original prohibition. This bill is to allow DeSantis to run for president and still keep his original position which he can return to if and when he loses or drops out. It’s a favor to him.
Yes, a favor to him and perhaps arguably to the rest of the country that would benefit greatly from a President DeSantis. But not as much of a favor to the people of Florida, and I can understand why they might not want the bill to pass.
Oh I don’t know. In the last election cycle, our governor Inslee ran for president on a climate change panic!!! first agenda and got . . . what, <1% of the primary vote? But at least he was the heck outta the state a lot, so he could do less damage than if he’d stayed home and given “proper attention” to us long suffering Washingtonians.
I have never much such a person. I think it would be an entertaining discussion.
Are you comparing people who believe the moon landing was fake with those of us who believe the election was not clean? Is it believe what you believe or be considered crazy?
I don’t support changing laws back and forth every for years depending on who is in office.
Right. This is how we wound up with SecRaytheon Austin.
