However, Trump continues to be the main topic of conversation on TVF, and on CNN etc, BECAUSE the Democrats CHOOSE to prolong his exposure in the public eye. He doesn't need social media when every main news channel is reporting on him every day for hours. I hope he is going to be in the senate to defend himself, and every word he says will be broadcast around the world. I expect him to make much of the opportunity to rally his base and lambast the Democrats. I suspect the Democrats will be doing everything they can to deny him the opportunity, however I think they will discover that they have started something they will come to regret in future days. Well i think they should drop the whole incitement to insurrection and attempted coup because obviously those charges pail in comparison to 'prolonging his exposure in the public eye'. And why would he be 'lambasting the democrats'? It wasn't their supporters who stormed The Capitol. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of them are now realising that they have been conned by Trump and are unwilling to admit it for whatever reason. They have nailed their colours to the mast and simply cannot accept that they are wrong, and refuse to admit it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
