And cameras aren’t allowed in federal trials. That’s the real crime here.

    "We’ll have fun on the stand with all of these people that say the Presidential Election wasn’t Rigged and Stollen [sic],” Trump posted, adding an all-caps claim it’ll be “THE TRIAL OF THE CENTURY!!!”

    When we were told as youngsters that “any one of you could be the president of the United States!”, I never imagined it could be interpreted as a warning rather than something meant to motivate young minds. 🤦🏽‍♂️

      Lmao “Stollen”. I think I’ve eaten some Stollen while in Germany.

      Dude, how was this our guy for four years? How did he slip through two impeachments? He’s a walking conundrum, or I guess I spelled that wrong, too. He’s a walking covfefe

        Lol how long do you have? The short, super-oversimplified answer is, the Orange One’s ability to stay in office is the entire reason why Fox News was created; to spin/omit bad information so that their audience believes their politicians can do no wrong, and in effect, so that their preferred presidents could never be removed from office.

        There’s also the fact that a lot of stupid, hateful assholes put him in office literally so that folks like you and I would suffer.

        Honestly, no matter how detailed I could get about how the Trump presidency happened, I too find myself asking “how the fuck did this all happen??”, and I just don’t fucking know, man. I don’t fucking know.

      Yeah, but we never told the kid that had Elmer’s glue on his breath, meowed unironically, and would pull down his pants for attention. Now he’s seeking a second term.

      I guess conservatives are right, the “everyone gets a trophy” class produced some shit people.
