Summary
Democrats blame Attorney General Merrick Garland for delaying prosecution of Donald Trump over the January 6 Capitol attack, allowing him to win reelection before facing trial.
Critics argue Garland wasted critical time before appointing a special prosecutor in late 2022, enabling Trump to evade accountability due to DOJ policy barring prosecution of sitting presidents.
While Trump faces ongoing civil lawsuits, his return to power threatens pardons for convicted rioters and continued revisionism about the attack.
Despite public disapproval of Trump’s actions, he successfully leveraged misinformation to regain the presidency.
But think of how NOBLY the Dems have lost the Republic! Completely polite and norm-abiding as what remains of our democracy is torn to shreds and pissed on!
They didn’t lose the republic … they gave it away.
You lose something of you trying to fight to hold onto it. When you weren’t fighting to hold onto something, then you just give it away.
At one point looking at all this political stupidity, it makes you think that the US is only run and controlled by one party, a single party united by money and wealth
They fought, they just fought according to the ‘rules’ of the game. They were playing baseball while the GOP was playing “Beat the ref and crowd to death and take their wallets”.
They’re so goddamn certain that the newspapers tomorrow will praise their sportsmanship against such a terrible foe, and talk about how they ‘deserved’ to win, since that’s how it worked in the Good Ol’ Days™.
In reality, what newspapers aren’t themselves intimidated by the thugs with aluminum bats will be lambasting the Dems for playing stupid fucking games while a massacre went on.
To the Dem thinking, everyone will lock arms and sing kumbaya and the next game will be totally aboveboard because people will be watching extra close for unsportsmanlike behavior. And hell - if it doesn’t work out like that, it’s not like the Dem players will be beaten to death - isn’t the GOP just going after refs and the crowd? The Dem reps feel safe enough to gamble with our lives as many times as it suits their civility obsession to do so.
Knowing that the GOP is both stupid enough and malicious enough to target these oh-so-civil-Dems in the coming years is scant comfort, but at least I’ll have plenty of folk to spit on when everyone is waiting in line for the gas chambers.
Something something high road
When they go low… We sit idly by and get buried in their shit
Just a couple months ago, you would have screamed at anyone who engaged in such talk on the grounds that they were Russians that wanted Trump to win.
Yeah, that’s about the reading comprehension I suspected you were working with in our interactions a couple months ago.
Centrists insisted that his critics were all Russians who would be gone as soon as the election was over. You all knew they weren’t.
Condescension is no replacement for defensible positions. And it sure as hell wasn’t a replacement for a good candidate.
Again, you’re proving that your low level of reading comprehension has been consistent these past few months, but not much else, considering that’s not even close to what was being said.
Doubling down on condescension is also no substitute for defensible positions.
