honestly, if someone did everything Trump did and then found the Fountain of Youth, going all the way back to a single cell, and that single cell was brought to court...
it would still die in jail of old age by the end.
Just because the Senate was nearly destined to acquit doesn't mean you just don't impeach him. It was the right thing to do.
>when we lose we still win
imao this is great the damage control here is the real deal
And I'm sick and tired of the increasingly dumber and dumber ways his supporters and defenders find ways to twist their brains around. The dude is a bad and untrustworthy actor on the political stage. Or any stage for that matter. We've known that for decades, long before he ever ran his bid in 2016.
Trump should be the spokesperson for Tefal.
Is he running again? You're really overselling him, I already liked him the first time around.
I'm a bad guy.
Nobody thought it was particularly likely that 17 Republican senators would vote to convict Trump. The fact that seven voted to convict can be seen as a real accomplishment though, and it's pretty damning that there was bipartisan agreement that Trump was guilty.
The vultures are circling round Trump already, his businesses are not doing well.
I don't think winning is something he's going to be doing ever again.
We know there are criminal prosecutions about to come down in Georgia, New York, and perhaps even federally. I can't wait.
One of his friends that he shares common interests with, A Mr Jeffrey Epstein. thought the same way.
he better wipe that smile off his face when the tsunami of criminal charges comes crashing into dear ol daddy
Ah, so we're back to the conspiracy theories now. Jeffrey Epstein was a public person of interest, he was "friends" with binders of politicians and public figures. Remind me, which president flew with him on the Lolita Express? Oh, that's right, Clinton... and which president banned him from their resorts for being a creep? Oh, that's right, Trump did. Huh.
To any Trump supporters left, please seek professional help. Not just to help yourself but for everyone else too.
In more relevant, Biden-related news, the Biden administration has approved a weapons deal with Chile concerning Raytheon missiles.

Completely coincidentally, Biden's active Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin used to be a board member at Raytheon and presumably still owns anywhere between $500k-$1.7m worth of shares in the company.

I hope everyone's enjoying the distractions though.

Why did the Trump administration approve of the weapon sales? And is it going to be in dangerous hands?In more relevant, Biden-related news, the Biden administration has approved a weapons deal with Chile concerning Raytheon rockets.

The Biden administration initially paused all deals for review. They have re-green lit the deal despite a clear conflict of interests, which is somewhat concerning. The Secretary of Defense stands to gain from this transaction, which is pretty inconvenient for the current administration, but I suppose they found nothing wrong with it.
No contract has been signed yet to my knowledge, we'll see how this proceeds. Theoretically the SoD has a moral obligation to either reject the deal or to liquidate shares before it is signed. I somehow doubt either scenario will take place, but we'll see. Stranger things have happened. They have some degree of plausible deniability, but it still smells pretty rancid.

In public sure. But Trump inspected those underage undressed pageant queens. According to him it was one of the perks.
He also made inappropriate comments about his own daughter when she was 16.
But yeah, in public nothing to do with epstein.

This reply is so full of stupid I don't even know where to begin... If you look back on the Trump administration and see nothing but a golden, shining city, then the only thing I can hope for is that your head eventually dislodges itself from that far up your ass.
It could've been much, much better. Trump should've moved hard and fast when he had both of the chambers. A missed opportunity, but then again, as a newcomer he didn't have the experience he has now. Not much point in complaining about it now - he's out of office and a little too old to run again in 2024, in my estimation.
The Republicans got everything they wanted during Trump's presidency: tax cuts for the rich.
