"Trump with willfully concealing that classified document about attack plans for Iran, the one he was caught on tape at Bedminster shaking around in front of Mark Meadows’s biographer like it was his willy."

Let's not get too fictional. Trump cannot shake his willy around...

Flick it might be possible.

Maybe.

Not going there...

Oh. I guess I have to devote more time to my research. They look alike. I thought 'take it to the limit?' No way. (Thanks.)

Trump will not go to jail no matter how many indictments comes his way.

Thatsit Fortheotherwon's avatar

You were one of the people a month ago saying "there will be no indictments coming his way."

Give it up.

At this point, Trump is in a foot race with Lady Justice and the Grim Reaper.

David Hendrickson's avatar

My money is on The Grim Reaper.

Nancy Naive's avatar

My hope is on the Grim Reaper, but Lady Justice plods along just like the tortoise.

David Hendrickson's avatar

"The wheels of justice turn slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine." -- Brilliant saying, from someone I don't remember, and am too lazy to do the Googles on right now.

Keeping my fingers crossed.

Not the pool boy! Melon's back isn't going to crack itself!

BECKY's avatar

Can someone remind me of the pool flooding story? did the pool flood the server room, something like that? And let me guess, they filed an insurance claim and voila! all better. or voila, donald gets a big check.

Donnie is saying this is “prosecutorial misconduct used at a level never seen before.” How cute. Someone taught him some new words.

Thatsit Fortheotherwon's avatar

"a level never seen before" has been used daily for about eight years now.

John Thorstensen's avatar

Not to mention great syntax; the word "used" is doing exactly nothing in the sentence.

Pillbox Hat's avatar

Except proving that Donnie not talk too good.

Trump Jr. needs to take beard lessons from Jack Smith.

Who'm I kidding? He couldn't learn how to wear a beard if Moses gave him lessons.

Pillbox Hat's avatar

I’d like to see him shave his face and just have a chin/neck beard. That would be hilarious.

Charles  Schlotter's avatar

The silver lining to their cloud is that they both have representation from Trump-selected attorneys, so they are getting the very bigliest.

Marcus Damicus's avatar

And, to think we used to get all hot and bothered over the possibility of a "pee tape".

Ahh, simpler times.

Fuck Ted Cruz.

John Thorstensen's avatar

I'll betcha anything it's sitting in a vault in the Kremlin somewhere, and Trump knows it.

The Horned Tulip God's avatar

There's always going to be a part of me that's disappointed we didn't get that tape.

Mike's avatar

Of course CNN reports "more indictments for Trump overshadowed by the stunning reversal of the Hunter Biden plea agreement". That's the ticket, 2 misdemeanors are the lead story fuck double digit federal felonies with more to come. Here's a news flash for CNN, no MAGA will ever read or watch you so this pandering has no audience and the rest of the voters in this country think you reporting is a piece of shit

insert_something_creative's avatar

Godfuckingdamnit. Get your shit together CNN!

Mal Speranza's avatar

Federal felonies that include TRADING IN STATE SECRETS.

Well, CNN went over to the dark side long ago, and with the recent change in regime there, it's just a bit more overt.

If it was any other judge but Cannon he would be in prison for the rest of his life

skinnercitycyclist's avatar

That depends. How long you think that diaperclad sack full of rancid Big Macs is going to live?

Thatsit Fortheotherwon's avatar

About six weeks in the joint.

The Horned Tulip God's avatar

If he's sent to an actual prison, I'd give him a year, maybe. House arrest at Mar-A-Largo? Sky's the limit.

SunMoonStars's avatar

Yippee Ki yay, motherfuckers. I'm so past justice I want some fucking payback for all the shit Rs have pulled for decades including starting with fucking Nixon who moved the goal posts of this entire trajectory. Then move onto W and Darth who should be rotting in Gitmo along with the entire GQP the seditionists.

SaltyCat's avatar

OTOH a new poll shows 50% of Republicans don't believe DJT had classified docs at MAL. My gawd these people are delusional and becoming more unreachable by the day.

Secret Agent Super Dragon's avatar

All the media they consume is telling them this is NBD compared to Hunter’s doings

insert_something_creative's avatar

The same poll showed a lot of Republicans do think that Biden and Pence refused to return the documents they inadvertently had.

So, they saw the news about Trump — they just don't give a shit and would rather stick their oversized heads into the mud.

Mx.le Maerin's Luxury Comedy's avatar

A favorite saying, you've maybe heard me use it before: There are none so blind as those who *will* not see.

I think a lot of these folks are deep into the sunk costs fallacy. I also think the nature of being conservative means you're much less likely to admit when you're wrong about something. Now - add to this a steady diet of Faux, which has been weaving a seamless narrative of BS that makes perfect sense - so long as you don't compare it to alternate explanations any more than necessary.

They're pulling the wool over their own eyes, but I guess that feels better than admitting they've been backing perhaps the greatest political criminal this country has ever known.

John Thorstensen's avatar

There is none so bland, as he who will not season.

TalentNotAutotune's avatar

Don't worry. Nothing will ever change those peoples' minds and look at the good side - half the GOP does in fact believe PAB had stuff he shouldn't have.

I am here to tell you that holding a person accountable for their dastardly and unlawful deeds is never, ever the wrong thing to do.

Mal Speranza's avatar

If half of Trump's supporters are bothered by his stealing classified documents, we're in like Flynn. Errol Flynn, not Michael Flynn.

Yeah. I get stuck trying to understand how the Ivy League puts out all these people with money, ñtitle, connections, and privilege and the best use they can put allthat to is... stupidity. Knowingly. No wonder so many of them have eyes crazy or dead.

DDB9000's avatar

First of all, not all Ivies. Mostly just Harvard and Yale, but you answer is right there...

''money, entitled, connections, and privilege and the best use they can put allthat to is... stupidity'' BEACUSAE thet were never smrat in the first place, nor weer their parents, not the grandparents, etc. The ONL They ever had is MONEY, and that trumps everything in Amurican sociity.

Mal Speranza's avatar

Except that a big cohort of Trump supporters are wealthy white suburbanites who are quite educated but monumentally selfish, greedy, and racist. They are simply lying to the pollsters.

Many of them really are dumb (Klepper's segments are examples of these), but not all, and of them, not all are grifters. There are people who are truly delusional in a mass way out there, dumb and not so dumb.

My theory is that it's STEM-types who are otherwise smart but buy into weird theories about how the world tends to work, such theories as Qanon or Trumpism.

Rags's avatar

Nope. Most stem disciplines require critical thinking. Maybe engineers and docs where their training has them depend on received information. This is very true within the creationism universe

skinnercitycyclist's avatar

Critical, but more black and white. I stand by my experience. You have more STEM than liberal arts majors in the "intellectual" wing of MAGA.

Just my sense!

John Thorstensen's avatar

Uh, not necessarily. I'm a board-certified STEM type, and nearly all the people I know in science are very progressive.

skinnercitycyclist's avatar

Of course not necessarily. But of the smarter MAGAts, I think there is some validity to my statement.

SunMoonStars's avatar

Oh they're stupid alright but they are truly delusional. 74M voted for the orange moron TWICE so not only are they delusional they are corrupt narcissists and sociopaths.

Diane's Less Hostile Username's avatar

Still missing:

Drublic

German Cat Lady

Lizard

Sloth

Tacos

skinnercitycyclist's avatar

Oh, I thought that was Trump's latest cognition screener.

You Should Ice That Burn's avatar

It was cool to see Anna-Elizabeth made it back, they had been absent for a good while before the move.

TalentNotAutotune's avatar

Isn't He-who-shall-not-be-named also MIA around here?

Let's hope so!

Opalescent Riddles's avatar

Suzie Greensburg, last seen here before the move, and/or the horrible rains that really messed up the middle of her state. I'm learning from my upstate contacts that things got pretty bad even along the border with Canada.

Crip Dyke's avatar

>> "German Cat Lady"

She was very clear that she might not make the jump. I miss her. Despite her professed misanthropy, I found her a delight.

Of course, you have to take my assessment with a grain of salt. After all, I'm someone who thinks that misanthropy, as a profession, is based on entirely too optimistic a view of human nature.

Diane's Less Hostile Username's avatar

Maybe she will change her mind. : (

It's a reflecting Jen!'s avatar

Think Tacos took a pause even before the move cause of lawyering school

Diane's Less Hostile Username's avatar

He still popped in occasionally. I expect he'll show. Lizard never stopped complaining about how people make fun of southern people, so she may have flounced.

Yep, saw him. Sloth has been gone for a while, but made a mastodon account so I was hoping she would come back.

Mastodon is pretty damned awesome.

Or at least get so fed up they have to argue with us ^.^

We can start making erroneous guitar references for Drublic, that ought to doit
