Popular Post Walker88 Posted August 7, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 7, 2023 trump's defense seems focused on trump's First Amendment right to lie. That means they will be admitting in court that trump lied and knew he lost the election to Biden. I wonder if the cult will not only applaud the defense tactic where trump admits to lying and losing, but still believe he won? When two polar opposite things are wholeheartedly embraced as factual, that is evidence of a cult. We've already seen this absurdity in trump's earlier indictment over the stolen classified documents, where his followers believed BOTH that trump declassified in his mind (sic) and also that the FBI planted the docs. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For every fair-minded individual in possession of his mental faculties - the one and only Real POTUS 45 is An abominal man, dishonest to the core, only concerned with himself, having at best scant regard to democratic principles and the Constitution. Mea culpa not needed - Humor, just like grace under pressure, is the mark of an accomplished man (my own definition). Your "satirical, acerbic, acid or caustic comment of the highest order" was an unexpected break for levity - delicious satire for a jaded soul like me - unfortunately, it fell in at a time when folks are feeling rather hi-strung. But don't let that stop you... Looking forward to your interpretation of the upcoming superseding version (that hopefully would include Hunter's "crime of the century" and his laptop, among other "facts.")

You can be of the opinion that the sun rises in the west and sinks in the east, too. Reading the indictment, and noting how it is backed up by video, email, messages and under oath witness statements---none of which have been contested, as the current defense tactic is to say trump has a right to lie about the election---says you simply think the sun rises in the west and you're going to stick with that. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
