The cause being Russia interfering with our elections
He's not even a symptom, he's just an accurate image of the system without its mask on. He is the American ruling class, he is the average American politician, he's just also too much of a boorish lout to hide what that really means, all the rot and cruelty and predation that the entirety of the ruling class is animated by but will deny to the bitter end and refuse to acknowledge even when it breaches their carefully trained masks.
they should execute the entire Republican party, I'll support Dems then.
I’m guessing they’re enjoying calling him a “convicted felon”.
Can’t wait to drop “Biden lost to a convicted felon” on them.
Seriously, Genocide Joe is already doing poorly with black people but I can't imagine all the smug rich white libs calling Trump a "convicted felon" and gloating about the legal system will help
If it happens, they'll "Nuh uh!" Their way out of it. Trump could win the popular vote and the electoral college and they'll pretend like they didn't spend the last four years saying elections can't be stolen
I hate CNN for Russiagating my parents while I was at college. It made my mother scared that my dad found penpals in Russia (he found them in other countries too). He just wants to help the guy learn better English and talk about retired guy stuff.
“I read that ‘grilling’ was a Soviet KGB term for gaining information from an asset then murdering them”
And let's be real too, nothing will happen to Trump either lmao. Libs are deluded in thinking this is the system "working"
The funny thing is that I’m pretty sure the average person has no idea or cares. I remember being in Upstate New York and all the tv’s in buildings were playing CNN or Fox and heavily covering the trial.
Average person didn’t know what it was about or cared. They were too busy talking about Taylor Swift shit. Only people who had an interest in politics or older people who spent hours watching those channels cared.
Exactly, no one's paying attention and no one cares
Any normie who is paying even a bit of attention is just gonna think it's weird that Trump is convicted for one of the times he had consensual sex with an adult and not any of the other genuinely fucked up things he's done
They could have taken him to court on day one of his presidency for passing all his assets to his son rather than a blind trust.
None of these lawsuits have been serious.
yes, but he personally annoys me. now that he's out of the way I can happily ignore the news again!
i explained basically the same thing to some of my lib friends earlier and they couldn't grasp it a couple of them admitted the trial was purely political theater, but that was as far as we got
This is the Micheal Bay film of political theater
Sure, it's dumb, meaningless, and overstimulating to the point of dissociation, but sometimes its nice to take a break from Herzog to dissociate and get blitzed by 3 straight hours of explosions and lens flairs
Will laugh if he gets put on house arrest and just ignores it
idk I'm happy to laugh and celebrate with the libs on this one. Like I might be laughing for a different reason, but at least like when they were all celebrating after Biden's election this event is probably not gonna make anything worse and is mostly just funny. But yeah you are technically right, but im happy to let the libs have this one.
such a simultaneously obvious and yet deeply revelatory statement
Liberals are now comfortable in their system, since it gives the appearance of 'working' just a bit more for them
The "felon" label alone is enough for them. They're hanging the "mission accomplished" banners, and he hasn't even been sentenced to free big Macs and free run of the Whitehouse yet
