    And what’s his view on the report that said Russia helped him win the election? Why hasn’t he arrested anyone for treason?

        Look, the Democrats don’t want to prosecute white collar criminal behaviour, some of their best friends are white collar criminals… namely the Republicans sitting across from them in congress.

        Because he’s the biggest fucking coward this country has ever had to suffer the existence of. I almost hate him as much as I do the Republicans

      And what’s his view on the report that said Russia helped him win the election?

      When you consider how many billions of dollars and thousands of man hours Americans invested into getting Donald Trump elected, it’s all very surreal to hear how Russia stole the election. It wasn’t Vladimir Putin trying to fuck with the recounts in Georgia or purging voter roles in Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Texas. As far as I’m aware, no Russians sit on the SCOTUS.

      It’s not going to be Russians who are fucking with the 2026 election results, either.

      Why hasn’t he arrested anyone for treason?

      For the same reason Biden didn’t, presumably. For the same reason he didn’t “Lock Hillary Up!” in 2017.

      And, to be… uh… fair? to Trump, he absolutely did try to prosecute James Comey and John Bolton and Letitia James. Not to mention… NYC Comptroller Brad Lander, Sen. Alex Padilla, Rep. LaMonica McIver, Judge Hannah Dugan, Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, and one of the staffers for Rep. Jerry Nadler.

      Trump’s been all on board with Lawfare, particularly with respect to anyone who intercedes against his mass arrest of migrants.

        Both trump and Russia can be guilty of trying to steal the election.

        Trump just attempted to sue people who reported that he was trying to steal the election, that isn’t being lawful it’s the exact opposite.

          The need to displace blame onto Evil Foreigners every time domestic billionaires fuck your country is how Americans made Trump viable to begin with.

            It’s easier to be mad at the last straw than the rest of the haystack on your now dead camel.
