This is so beyond indefensible that I have no words.

A failure to hold Trump accountable for his many flagrant violations of national security laws would be a complete failure of justice.

[-] Delusional@lemmy.world 54 points 1 year ago

Anyone who has any semblance of basic thought could tell that trump was a disaster and electing him as president is one of the dumbest fucking things imaginable that you could do, and republicans went and did it. How could electing an irresponsible, stupid man-child be of any help to anyone whatsoever?

[-] Letstakealook@lemm.ee 20 points 1 year ago

He helped them advance their goals. The trump presidency did more for the Christian/white nationalists in four years than they accomplished in the last thirty. We (everyone not a hateful POS) will be dealing with the results of his presidency for decades. Hopefully we can prevent them from making further gains.

He cut taxes for uber rich, which is the plan for every Republican politician. The system is working as intended.

[-] reverendsteveii@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 year ago

He made it clear that he'll let them hurt the people they want to hurt. That's what conservative politics is: a list of enemies and strategies by which they can be harmed.

This is so beyond indefensible that I have no words.

A failure to hold Trump accountable for his many flagrant violations of national security laws would be just the latest example of a complete failure of justice.

As long as the GOP have control, not a damn thing is gonna happen to Trump. But you bet your ass they're gonna do everything they can to impeach Biden for some nonsense.

[-] Magzmak@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

And an injustice to all the loyal federal servants that vigilantly keep classified documents safe and make sacrifices to do so every day.

[-] yip-bonk@kbin.social 15 points 1 year ago

is a complete failure of justice. A continued failure. And let’s not think about national security.

[-] Rapidcreek@reddthat.com 74 points 1 year ago

And there’s more. Molly Michael told investigators that when she told Trump the FBI wanted to talk to her, he replied: "You know nothing about the boxes."

[-] Dkarma@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Maybe a little light treason... 🤷‍♂️

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 62 points 1 year ago

Hmm. Ngl, I'm actually a bit surprised he uses to-do-lists.

I would have assumed he just got angry until people guessed at what they want him to do.

PS, Don't forget the ketchup this time

[-] zeppo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It’s probably something like

  • GET HAMBERDER
  • handjob
  • video pee
  • Diet Cokes
[-] yip-bonk@kbin.social 43 points 1 year ago

Sources said that after Trump heard the FBI wanted to interview Michael last year, Trump allegedly told her, "You don't know anything about the boxes."

It's unclear exactly what he meant by that.

Well that’s just some quality fuckin’ journalism there, abcnews.

[-] Rapidcreek@reddthat.com 14 points 1 year ago

Obviously didn't cover that lying to the FBI is a crime in journalism school.

[-] theodewere@kbin.social 22 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Trump pissed on the Presidency and the US every day, so i piss on everyone who voted for him..

i take politics personal.. i treat every one of his crimes like you committed it against me, you ignorant fucking children.. and i want payback from all of you for it.. every last goddamned one of you..

[-] aphlamingphoenix@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago

I really don't think this is unreasonable. Policy has effects. That's why we make it. If you support policy or vote for politicians on the grounds that they support policy that is harmful to others, you are contributing to violence. It's normal to be angry at people who commit acts of violence against you or others.

At least Zaphod Beeblebrox was charismatic.

[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

At least it wasn't a cheeseburger wrapper.

[-] zeppo@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

classified cheeseburger because I AM PRESIDENT

[-] expatriado@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

the newsworthy part is that he can write

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

You know fellas, I'm starting to think Trump might not be as smart as he lets on.

[-] Redhotkurt@kbin.social 10 points 1 year ago

JFC, send this dumbfuck to prison already.

[-] btaf45@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

And hurry it up before Convicted Sex Offender Treason Trump kicks the bucket.

[-] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I know this will happen, likely some time in the next ten years. He's going to die of old age, and I just wonder what all of these obsessive idiots are going to do? The depressed person pulling levers in my head tells me that the redhats will try their best to put forth another figurehead, and they will fail miserably.

[-] TechyDad@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I wonder if they'll declare that Trump's not really dead - he's just gone deep undercover and will emerge victorious after slaying the Deep State. Then, they can write "Donald Trump" over every ballot because Q said that's the only way to bring Trump back.

[-] carl_dungeon@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

He’s a morally bankrupt idiot.

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

At this point its just almost funny.

[-] BrudderAaron@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago
