Smith's federal criminal cases against Trump were upended by the election, as the Justice Department's longstanding policy is that presidents can't be charged with crimes.
Dog… just stop with the copium. It’s embarrassing. Trump will never answer for his crimes, period. This should be abundantly clear after 8 years of flopped motions against him.
No Mueller report, no special council, no hush money case… is ever going to stop this guy.
Give up on the idea of justice against this dude and start preparing for his dictatorship.
“Won’t somebody [redacted] of this [redacted] p[olitician]?” unfortunately seems like our only escape hatch. I wish the two time travelers had better success in their missions. I am not confident the future resistance has enough resources to send a third, but one can hope.
The Supreme Court already rules that not only is Trump all but immune from prosecution, but that he can’t even be investigated or questioned over it.
So if Trump were to make a phone call and say “Yes, we’re going to sign this into law, and schedule a meeting about that other thing. Oh, and have Tom Hanks killed in a hail of bullets, kthxbye.”, the fact that he ordered Tom Hanks killed might be prosecutable. The problem is that even if they know he ordered Tom Hanks killed, they legally can’t even ask him about it because it happened during an official phone call.
Trump could go on a crime spree that would make the Mafia legitimately look like choir boys, and Jack Smith…well, Jack Smith isn’t going to be able to do Jack about it.
January 20, 2025 isn’t a swearing in ceremony. It’s a coronation.
yep, I hate it but at least it’s starting to sink in. come jan. we are in a functional trump dictatorship. there are no checks and balances left, the court assured so and with the legislative branch under his control, the single, only hope we have is that he’s too hilariously inept to be effective.
And this didn’t even require a violent takeover like he thought was necessary last time. He was a far worse candidate this time and so much of the American public was eager to throw the power back into his hands, while a sizable chunk did not seem to think it was important enough to go vote against him.
No ambiguity for anybody who cared enough to pay attention anyway!
It’s like the scorpion only stings while the frog is sleeping, and every morning the scorpion complains about how those damn hornets wearing DNC and BLM shirts came back and stung the frog that the scorpion loves so much. And despite the stings not even looking like hornets did it, the frog is unaware of the concept of confirmation bias and likes what he’s hearing so he just goes with it.
I’m always a fan of torturing a metaphor so yeah, exactly :)
It’s been going on for ages but at this point I don’t really blame the scorpion anymore. I certainly don’t blame the hornets wearing t-shirts, I mean, I don’t like them and I will try to exterminate them but not by trying to starve them out with scorpion overpopulation.
As far as not blaming the scorpion, when you look at it from his perspective Trump is one of the most “successful” people on the planet according to the metrics that matter to him. His shitty behavior is rewarded and reinforced over and over again. Ugh.
just wait till Jack see’s all the new crimes trump is gonna commit, he’ll be back in business in a few years

Right. And can buy the scorpion and the frog argument the first time around but this time there was NO ambiguity.
