Might big nok mean that he has 80% of the posters on ignore and so does not see their comments?  

If true, then he has pretty big blinders on.

Trump should have locked up Clintons, Gore, Bush, Obama and Bidens.

I know a little about the Ignore list but I just wonder how the idiot gets the figure of 80%.  If people are on an ignore list I assume you do not know they have posted therefore what is the 80% of?

I assume it is just another "fact" pluck from thin air just like all it's other posts!

Will Trump go after locking up the increasing numbers of Republicans who don't agree with him that this is weaponization of the DOJ?

 

In rejecting an effort to target Trump prosecutor Fani Willis, the Georgia governor undercut the GOP’s whole ‘weaponization’ push.

The Georgia governor went on to admonish the conspiratorial and increasingly punitive segment of his party, continuing a trend of Georgia Republicans like him standing up to that element in a way that others haven’t.
Kemp seriously undercut both Trump and the GOP’s continual unsubstantiated claims of the “weaponization” of the government.
“Up to this point, I have not seen any evidence that DA Willis’ actions or lack thereof warrant action by the prosecuting attorney oversight commission,” Kemp said Thursday. He added, “As long as I am governor, we’re going to follow the law and the Constitution, regardless of who it helps or harms politically.”

I don't have a high opinion of Gov Kemp, but at least he puts country before party.  Or perhaps he recognizes that the current Republican Party is a dangerous cult of personality and wants nothing to do with it.

That's also an issue. Even with Trump jailed, the swamp behind him will not vanish.

There ya go, another campaign promise he failed to deliver on.  Can MAL be considered a swamp?

It did happen and it encouraged Putin to embark on a path to invade Ukraine in the expectation that Trump would get to serve another term. When that didn't happen it was too late to change course without Putin looking weak.

Well, not only does Putin look weak, but we all realized he is not particularly intelligent either, and that his country is a broken down mess of a nation. Without it's oil and gas, it would be a rather unimpressive economy. Even with all those resources, the economy is small, considering the size of the country. Just behind South Korea. And half of all exports are oil and gas.

The more powerful they get the more autocratic they become. I prefer a president who listens to advisors.

Erroneous title apparently intended to cast trump in a bad light.

According to the article he said he'd prosecute them, which is not the same thing.

From the OP

"Former President Trump told conservative media personality Glenn Beck he would prosecute his political enemies if elected president again.

 

Is it the contention that he would be the jury that decides if they were guilty?

There are several lifelong repubs who have had the gonads to stand up and tell the truth....almost all of the witnesses in the 91 felony counts are ex trumpers as well as a few others who have belatedly grown a spine...it is not an easy thing to do as they are certainly aware that the deranged maga cult will put them in crosshairs with all kinds of death threats for them and their families.....and most repubs will say nothing as they are complete and total cowards.  How sad as i suspect most of them know full well how evil trump is but of course to stand up to him requires a real LEADER and not some chickensxxt like little lymp "I'm done with trump" lyndsey graham.  I actually remember a time when many republicans prided themselves as strong men with morals...now they are sniveling cult members.

Divide the citizens to conquer them. 

 

For those who have read up on this process it is very repetitive.  I remember the Clintons at Trump's wedding clinking champagne glasses with big smiles on their faces. The political parties are partners.  The objective is division.

At this time (2005), Trump was a Democrat. Then he saw more opportunities on the Republican side and switched (IMO easier for him to con Republican voters).

"In a 2004 interview, Trump told CNN's Wolf Blitzer: "In many cases, I probably identify more as Democrat", explaining: "It just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans. Now, it shouldn't be that way. But if you go back, I mean it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats...But certainly we had some very good economies under Democrats, as well as Republicans. But we've had some pretty bad disaster under the Republicans."

The words of Adam Schiff have never been more relevant.

 

There is no secrecy with the former president, he says quiet clearly what he is going to do, and millions will vote for that, and millions more will somehow be surprised by his actions

 

Adam Schiff used his closing arguments in the president's impeachment trial on Monday to urge the Senate to take a stand against "a man without character." "We must say enough — enough! He has betrayed our national security, and he will do so again," Schiff, D-Calif., told the Senate.Feb 3, 2020

Trump mk2 would be untamed and unbridled revenge. 

 

Up side of this is most will support it. The left claim the law applies equally to all, let's see the lefty elites in jail for their summer of love, election denialism, weaponizing the DOJ, encouraging the "surge" to biden's welded open southern border etc

First sentence - you're correct, he would absolutely weaponize the Justice Department and go after his enemies. 
Second sentence - "most" will support it. Surprisingly, you're correct again! I don't know anyone on the Left who would for example support not prosecuting Biden should it come out that he actually was involved in Hunter Biden's...whatever thing it is he was involved in. I think we'd be all for prosecuting anyone who tried to break the law and don't care who it is, even if it's AOC (whom I quite like politically).

Third sentence - if there were laws broken, then those who did it or organized it should be in jail. That's the position of the Left, we believe in this "rule of law" thing. What "election denialism"  are you referring to and what law did that break? What evidence is there that the Biden administration "encouraged the surge" and what law was broken that you can identify? Do you think people who break the law should go to jail even if you support their politics? Could you give us an example of who would fall into that category for you?

 

That's the fundamental difference; you actually understand that Trump both lost the election and tried to overturn it (sedition), supports dictators over democracies, and have no doubt he tried to sexually assault the various women (rape, libel). Despite wanting to throw any poor person who jaywalks into jail, you'd completely be okay with tossing out all of the charges and voting a seditious felon into office despite his killing over a million Americans with his botched COVID response and running up a massive deficit in a giveaway to already wealthy people. The so-called "party of law and order" now wants to dispose of the FBI and arrest judges who rule in ways different to what their popular opinion is.

Well, if someone keeps telling you the same thing every time, then I can understand that. 

If only putting someone on ignore, would keep them from repeating the same thing over and over again!
