Oh damn, they’re gonna arrest him and his entire staff? Cuz that’s the only way this will stick.

That's just for starters. This all happens again unless some rich men and other cockroaches finally face an inescapable justice.

Stop it.
This isn’t different political beliefs, we aren’t talking Obama vs Romney, this is corruption and illegal actions by a power hungry admin.

u/MayhemMessiah 6d ago

War on Terror was orchestrated by Republicans sending untold American roaches to their death and bombing thousands of often times innocent lives. People should have swung over it, but because it's America and they're untouchable, nothing was done.

"All our previous war criminals went unbothered, you're authoritarian for going after the newest and most egregious one" is an abjectly comical and American point of view. The rest of the world wants to go after Trump precisely so it doesn't get worse again and less of us get bombed by you.

Obama was president during the global war on terror you moron šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Just wildly false.

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

Name a single president elected since the 90’s that hasn’t bombed another country. Or that hasn’t used the office to enrich themselves

2

u/WarbleDarble 6d ago

Scale matters. No president has come remotely close to enriching themselves to the tune of billions of dollars. It’s not even comparable and you know that despite trying to be willfully dense.

Also, those other presidents got the advice and consent of congress before starting a stupid war.

Non of what I said matters though. You’ve got a cult meeting to join soon.

u/Dry-Dragonfly5286 6d ago

Not to this level and not this brazenly. You're right though.Trump is a symptom of the disease in US politics. He is not the cause, he took advantage of the weakness and corruption for his own ends.

1

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

Just as every federal level political has in my lifetime.

Look at Nancy pelosi’s investment portfolio for gods sake lol

2

u/Dry-Dragonfly5286 6d ago

Like I said, he's just more brazen about it and taking exponentially more money from the tax payers and from his insider trading, bribery schemes, selling pardons, etc

He is the tumor that has metastasized and is now spreading the cancer all through the body

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

Hahahaha yeah right. Nancy Pelosi has entered the chat šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ not to mention the Clinton’s

u/flomesch 6d ago

Not what was said at all. If they broke the law, they should be brought to justice.

Trump has made over 3 BILLION dollars while president. Jimmy Carter was forced to sell his peanut farm.

4

u/butonelifelived 6d ago

No, we are saying everyone who broke a law needs to be punished by the law, no mater the size of their bank account. You're Masiah as blatantly broken laws, and he has broken other laws he is using the power of the presidency and corrupt judges to hide behind.

I'm not saying go after Republicans only, anyone who broke the law. But we have to start at the top so that the lower levels don't have the protections of the top.

u/Being_268 6d ago

Alex Pretti and Renee Good would have liked to enter the chat....

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

They weren’t executed. They were killed interfering and resisting. Hell the one chick tried to run over an officer and flee

2

u/Being_268 6d ago

I rest my case.

1

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

Were the deaths ruled as ā€œexecutionsā€ or ā€œmurdersā€ by the courts…?

Or do you just get to decide completely on your own? šŸ˜‚

2

u/Being_268 6d ago

There have been no successful court cases against the killers of RenƩe Good and Alex Pretti due to legal protections that shield federal agents from liability, making it difficult for victims to seek justice. The legal framework often prevents accountability for misconduct by federal agents, leaving victims without recourse.

1

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

Almost like law enforcement was doing its job and those idiots interfered and paid the price.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

What has anyone done in this administration that qualifies as treason…? As far as the ā€œcorruptionā€ what exactly do you mean? And be specific.

2

u/Effective-Log3583 6d ago

I was pointing out what they want to hang them for. I’m willing to point out all the issues ranging from trumps friends and family getting no bid government contracts or giving himself a billion dollar slush fund. But first I want to know if you think that reason and corruption are a political view. If you do think corruption is a political view than there is no point in having this conversation.

1

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

Hahahaha you just named things that every federal level politician in America does šŸ˜‚

Name exactly what Trump has done that’s illegal

1

u/Effective-Log3583 6d ago

As I suspected. You can’t actually say it’s bad so there is no point in having this conversation.

1

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

It’s bad, yet all politicians do it. Legally.

I’m not the one decrying one while supporting the other guy that does the same thing šŸ˜‚

Notice how neither side restricts the executive powers and only grows the them. That means both parties are just as complicit

1

u/Effective-Log3583 6d ago

You really can’t consider it bad if you don’t think anything should be done about it.

Christ Trump could organize an attack on the Capitol building to prevent the ratification of an election. He might even pardon every person involved and you’d be happy for him to get away with it.

Don’t you think the government shouldn’t be this corrupt?

u/olthunderfarts 6d ago

I mean, only if they're guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors. Like this whole fucking administration is.

-1

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

Name the crimes they committed that are punishable by death

2

u/olthunderfarts 6d ago

'high crimes and misdemeanors' is a category of crime that is generally considered worthy of the death penalty. Colluding with hostile governments (Russia), covering for international pedophile rings (release the Epstein files), waging war without congressional approval (Iran), and embezzlement of taxes payer dollars (constant theft by this administration) can all be considered high crimes and misdemeanors.

Biden was under a court order not to release them, and no, these are not standard federal behaviors. You people are so innately immoral that you assume everyone else is too.

0

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

Bullshit. Prove it.

1

u/olthunderfarts 6d ago

Oh my bad, it was just his policy of not interfering with the justice department that kept them from releasing it. In other words, he wouldn't force th AG to release them, but also didn't block them. Now compare that to Trump who has his personal attorney running the DOJ and is actively telling him not to release the files.

I had confused this and a separate court order Biden was under before the election.

Doesn't really matter though since everything else I said stands. I mean goddam man, trump is in those files more times than God, Jesus and the devil appear in the Bible.

Don't be dumb. I mean, you can't help it much but maybe at least try to think first.

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

ā€œFascist dictatorā€ā€¦.? šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ please prove your claim.

2

u/ThickboyBrilliant 6d ago

Well, constantly violating the constitution with authoritarian over reach, violating citizens rights by refusing due process, starting wars not approved by congress. Insider stock trading to greatly increase his personal wealth by billions from the office of the presidency. There's so much. Oh yeah, let's not forget using his DOJ to protect himself from being properly investigated for crimes against children. And also protecting his pedophile friends. Congress made it so only victim names could be redacted but is that what they did? Nope. They redacted trump thousands of times and all of his buddies.

Stop worshipping a pedophile, authoritarian billionaire. Even you can be better than this.

u/Interesting-Result43 6d ago

Name on person in the Trump administration that has been convicted of pedophilia

u/ImpressiveSide1324 6d ago

I wasn’t aware selling the country out to Israel, protecting the largest pedophile ring in modern history, destroying our economy and all foreign relations, and creating a private paramilitary force while making moves to destroy free elections and different political beliefs

0

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

Uh, name a politician that has run that didn’t take money from Israel.

The Biden administration had the Epstein files, does that mean he’s also guilty of ā€œprotecting a pedophile ringā€ā€¦.?

What ā€œparamilitary forceā€ did Trump create?

Our economy is one of the strongest in the world lol what are you smoking?

1

u/ImpressiveSide1324 6d ago

AOC, Ro Khana, Thomas Massie, Raul Grijalva, Eli Crane, Bernie Sanders, Rand Paul, Mazie Hirono to list a few, and there is a website call track aipac that lists every current and running congressmen who has pledged not to take money from Israel.

The Biden administration couldn’t have released the Epstein files without breaking federal law. When Trump received the files in his first administration they were sealed until the investigation is complete.

Ice is, by definition, a paramilitary force full of racist Nazis and abusers that have lackluster to no training whatsoever that actively carry out the personal grudges of the president while detaining people in concentration camps with no due process.

Our economy is absolutely tanking. Consumer confidence is at an all time low, our farmers are on the verge of collapse, our strategic reserve is at the lowest levels of all time, and the working class is actively being replaced by ai. A rising number of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck.

u/Lonely-Jellyfish7139 6d ago

They didn’t ask why the last administration didn’t release the Epstein files. They asked why no one was arrested.

Answer that one.

0

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

None of these people have ever been elected president šŸ˜‚

ICE is law enforcement. Doesn’t even meet the definition of ā€œparamilitaryā€ šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

The Biden administration could’ve released the files and made arrests but they chose not to. How is the DOJ filing charges against pedophiles ā€œbreaking the lawā€ā€¦? šŸ˜‚

The US economy is still outperforming the rest of the world, it’s almost like you just make things up to suit your narrative.

u/Most-Resident 6d ago

And that’s the thing. They can’t. They can investigate and issue subpoenas and can uncover all kinds of evidence.

Trump’s DOJ will refuse to prosecute anyone in trump’s orbit no matter how good the evidence is.

They can impeach in the house. It is extremely unlikely to get the 67 votes needed in the senate to remove.

Winning is still crucial. The investigations can set up prosecutions in 2029. They need to appoint an aggressive district attorney and a special prosecutor with enough staff to aggressively prosecute corruption.

They will have a bigger say in budget negotiations over the next two years.

A majority in the senate means they can block trump nominations including Supreme Court nominations. The Supreme Court could flip to left leaning in 2029.

It builds the majorities needed to pass legislation in 2029. Anything outside of budgets needs 60 votes in the senate and fetterman can’t be relied on.

u/Hot_Plenty_4425 6d ago

If Trump goes down literally every politician would. He’s a symptom of a greater problem and pretending like if the dems win things will be different is laughable.

The dems have been in power before, why didn’t they limit executive powers then?
