He really attacked the US democracy in every way possible, and seeing as he's not smart enough to think these ploys himself, I can only imagine who was whispering in his ear.

Trump likes autocratic , authoritarian rulers . Like Putin , Kim Jong Un ... He dreamed of becoming the one of the USA .

I do not think that he cares about democracy or the american people , he cares about himself .

He thinks that he is the ' chosen one ' , the one who deserves to rule the world .

...

Poor Melania ...

Joe Exotic's legal team 'absolutely confident' he will receive presidential pardon

The legal team fighting for his release believes President Donald Trump will issue a pardon for the man known as “Joe Exotic.”

 

Joseph Maldonado-Passage was convicted and sentenced to 22 years in prison for a murder-for-hire plot and for violating wildlife laws. The leader of Maldonado-Passage’s legal team told KOCO 5 that they are extremely confident about getting a presidential pardon sometime Tuesday and that the Netflix sensation remains positive.

 

“We’ve delivered everything that I wanted to do on this project,” Eric Love said. “I am absolutely confident that we are going to receive the pardon tomorrow. We worked very hard on it.”

Pardon the Media, something will freeze over be fore that happens. 100 million plus Americans know that the American media is trying to take away our free speech. The truth must come out as to  why, as it effects us all. 

Why pardon the media?  The better sites just report the news.  Only nutters think the American media is trying to take away free speech.  And...the truth has come out.  Trump's a liar, cheat and a criminal.  Can't wait until Jan 21st.  The NY AG will be all over Trump and his family of criminals.  And no pardon can get them away from that.

If that crucifixion in ANY way detracted from his penchant for debasement and destruction they should all get Presidential medals. Hooray for them!

Then there was trump who brought US to the edge of civil war. I dont recall all this security for trumps inauguration.

 

So obama indeed was the more peaceful president compared to those two.

Rather have non interesting news than news correcting Trump's misinformation. No Trump's tweets ban and a sharp 73% decline of misinformation. isn't that refreshing. Press don't need Trump and Trump will fade without the press.

And the voters, who maliciously failed to re-elect the great man...

Indeed they did.

The popular vote history rounded to millions.:

2008      Obama               69          McCain               60                        Total                   129

2012      Obama               66          Romney              61                        Total                   127

2016      Trump                 63          Clinton                66                        Total                   129

2020      Biden                  82          Trump                 74                        Total                   156

 

Trump got over 10 million more votes than in 2016 but such is the popularity of Biden and the Democratic Party's brilliant organisation of legitimate postal ballots Biden got 16 million more than Hilary Clinton.

Like lots of Trump supporters, you don't seem to understand the powerful repellant effect of Donald Trump. Lots of people who thought how bad can he be who voted for him the first time, learned just how bad that was.

The tragedy of these people is they contribute to Trump's coffers and did his Twitter bidding. They don't realize Trump is a sociopath who has manipulated them, while regarding them as losers and failures. In his universe, everyone lower on the food chain is a loser. He cannot accept he has lost.

My betting is NONE of the Capitol rioters will get pardons from him, they are just his cannon fodder to be used.

I believe there are legal jeopardies for the loser-in-chief if he pardons them.

 

Either way, we're winning now, little by little. We got back both the executive and legislative branches. THIS kind of winning I can get behind.
