Per Trump, “great legal experts,” including Sean Hannity and Mark Levin, believed there was no case.
Today I was absolutely shocked to learn that Sean Hannity and Mark Levin are great legal experts.
And [the hush money jury] is in about a 95 percent Democrat area,
Pro tip: if you don't want to be tried by a jury from a mostly-Democratic area, don't commit crimes in New York City.
This dude lived most of his life on Manhattan. He has multiple properties there. Those people know him best and are the best judges of guilt in his trial.
Pro pro-trip. If you have something to hide don't run as president. If he just remained a private citizen this wouldn't be happening to him right now
Has someone tried starting a conspiracy that Donald Trump is fucking dead and this is a clone meant to trick people into voting for a Luciferian Sleeper Agent?
Imagine if Trump gets reelected, and H5N1 becomes a pandemic.
I remember reading that there was a large percentage of Americans that considered the pandemic a "sign from god". Now I'm no statistician, but I feel like there's a large overlap between the people who thought that and the people who absolutely would not think it's a sign negatively related to Trump, and would somehow justify the second one as a warning about those damn deep state liberals.
Would be pretty hilarious though, if not for the innocent people who would suffer.
There is a certain segment of society that thinks every natural event is a "sign from (their) god".
I do wonder how many of the same people that kept mindlessly repeating phrases like "gain of function! gain of function!" like good little parrots were ALSO saying the pandemic was a "sign from god", though.... 😂
Wonder about the natural world is nice, but I've definitely seen people take it too far. One comment on here talked about how they saw miracles every day. Like they were hungry and found $20 in their jacket pocket. Or they were cold and the sun came out.
That's not a miracle. It's just coincidence. You can't say that everything is meaningful or nothing is.
Yeah, but like that's going to stop him taking waaay too close to 50% of the vote to be comfortable.
It’s not about 50% it’s about swing states and the illegitimate electoral college
Do you mean the Trump Fake Elector Plot?
Glad that has an article I can share to my friends who are normally very intelligent, but they legit believe Biden stole the erection.
Uh Trump was the one in office. Pretty damn hard rig an election when you're not in power or position to influence.
Please define illegitimate electoral college.
In 1929, Congress passed the Reapportionment Act, loving the House of Representatives at 435. Due to population growth in largely coastal states, and the requirement of at least one Representative per state, the House, which was intended to provide representation proportional to population, instead give a significant amount of power to states with lower population densities, resulting in a tendency towards minority rule in the House. Since the number of Electoral College votes are proportional to a state's delegation to Congress, this also gives low-population states an outsized influence over the Presidential election, contrary to the intent of the US Constitution.
When is this waste of space gonna die?
That's what I'm saying.
