It is astonishing that anyone still believes a word that comes out of his ass.

"It is a form of Navalny."

`

So what?

The guy who's spent at least the last 8 years compulsively blowing Putin, who within the last week said he would tell Putin he could "do whatever the hell he wanted", and who has rhapsodized on many occasions about weaponizing the law and... well, actual weapons... against anybody who looked at him cross-eyed, all of a sudden NOW doesn't like persecution?

Big man, strong men, with tears in their eyes would come up to me and say, "Sir, you're a piece of Shit. Navalny died for liberty and freedom. What's you're excuse, why are you still alive, unlike poor Navalny, whom you think you're like?"

If the polls start trending against him, I wouldn't put it past this idiot to arrange an assassination attempt -- against himself. He's going to see the ongoing effect of Navalny's murder on his supporters, and think "Hey, I want that! It'll help me out bigly."

With any luck, he'll hire the guys from "Fargo."

Contrition, complicit. This family did NOT major in vocabulary.

Not a snowball’s chance in a blast furnace of becoming President. Period.

Since the Vulgar Talking Yam insists he’s being treated exactly like Alexander Navalny, then let’s just skip all the niceties of trials and whatnot and send him to a prison in the Arctic Circle. At least that way, we wouldn’t have to hear any more of his incessant idiotic yammering or see his gross countenance on TV.

OK, so it’s a fantasy I have. I’d be just as happy with him locked up in a SuperMax, like Pelican Bay.

Hey! A girl can dream, right?

9 fucking years, like tears in the rain

Trump hasn’t won over new voters, that’s very hard to believe after 1/6 and his tour of American courtrooms. If we are essentially having a redo of 2020, only an electoral miracle could change the outcome. Republicans are convinced (at least 60% or more) that the elections are rigged and voting is meaningless. That’s not a recipe for voter turnout. Liberals are even more disgusted by Trump at this point, and will vote like democracy depends on it. I’m still predicting a 10 million spread, with a similar result in the swing states. Biden needs to be present and sharp in PA, GA, MI and WI. But America isn’t sending PAB back to the very office he defiled.

Maybe Trump means that if he's no longer of use to Putin he'll share Navalny's fate.

Oops, should have read Zyxomma's comment.

Ta, Gary. When TFG loses in November, and is thus of no further value to Putin, he could very well find himself "Navalnyed." I guess it also depends who's holding the notes on his massive debts.

Trump wouldn't even have lasted as long as Navalny if he got the same treatment, the initial jail time would have already killed him off.

"The entire thing is here if you crave 45 minutes of LOLsobbing because this guy still has a 50-50 chance of being the next president of the United States."

I find myself without that craving. Therefore I decline.

Trump thinks he's treated like Navalny? Let's let him spend a few years in an Arctic gulag, and then ask him again.

Of all the potential pay per view things that I would pay to watch Trump experience, this would be the most lucrative.

Like a live cam, where you could go onto your TV, computer, or phone to check in periodically to see how badly he's doing for $5.99/month. SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY dot gif!

Fox needs to stop asking Trump about the stolen documents. Trump only ever further incriminates himself whenever he answers questions about them.

So … they should stop? 🤨
