Merrick Garland Let Trump Get Away With It. The Bad Guys Have Won.

[Billiejeens]

For someone who uses an internet discussion board handle named after an element that burns brightly, you sure are acting like a burned-out dimwit.

You lost, ok? At least try to retain some of your dignity and self-respect by not being such an asshole.

No chance

Okay, this is bad and all. But our system really seems unable to punish lawbreaking presidents.

Nixon never went to jail for Watergate
Reagan was never held to account for Iran Contra
Clinton was never held to account for Lewinsky
Bush was never held to account for lying us into the Iraq War.

It all comes down to who you trust and who you do not. When pure survival comes, we all will see the results of that. Progs have many criminals who are not investigated and charged. Republicans are always smeared from the start and moves on from there. So, know your local, regional, statewide and federal people who you will trust or will not. Also, when in Rome in that time, do what the Romans do.

Nixon never broke any laws. It was a coup by the CIA to get rid of one of the most popular Presidents ever.

Garland should have started his Jan 6 criminal investigations of Trump on 20 Jan 2021, as soon as Joe Biden entered office. Instead, Garland wasted over 2 years prosecuting all of the imbecile MAGA bumpkins who attacked the Capitol on Jan 6.

Garland would have done absolutely nothing to prosecute Trump if it had not been for the House Jan 6 Committee putting pressure on Garland during the summer of 2022.

History is going to crucify both Merrick Garland and Joe Biden for letting Trump get away with this. It is like Jefferson Davis being allowed to run for President in 1868, as if nothing had ever happened. Biden campaigned in 2020 and 2022 and 2024 talking about what a threat to democracy Trump was....and then did nothing about it.

Biden and Garland actually gave Trump legitimacy to run for president, by failing to take action immediately in 2021. President Bernie Sanders would have thrown Trump's ass in jail in 2021 or 2022 and permanently lost the key.

Don't take my word for it...listen to Elie Mystal on this podcast with Michael Steel, starting at about 49:20.

The bad guys have won. It's a very bitter pill to swallow.

You still mad about Harris losing?

Bush was never held to account for lying us into the Iraq War

And now the Democrat Party is the party of Cheney Bush warmongers.

Is the OP sobbing in grief yet, or do I still have time to make some popcorn?

Keep living in your safe MAGA fantasy world where Trump has done nothing wrong or illegal, gomer.

People died on Jan 6 because of Donald Trump. Fuck him and fuck you.

The only person who died that day was an unarmed woman murdered by a trigger-happy DNC cop. You cheered.

No, what happened was, Garland miscalculated. The plan was for the sh** to hit the fan right in the middle of the 2024 election season to damage Trump, then the knockout punch would be the sentencing right before November. But Trump's team outsmarted his ass and got it dragged out. This was nothing more than politics. That's the ONLY reason Garland waited until 2022 to start this sideshow.

Indeed, plus we have a real American song to enjoy too.

You voted for Jefferson Davis, dude. A traitor to his country, as Trump demonstrated trying to steal the 2020 election on Jan 6.

Pure and simple. You were born an imbecile and you will die and imbecile.

MAGA white trash imbecile.

Speaking of imbeciles.. I'm looking at you.

Republican Party Establishment​

The Republican Party was founded in 1854, primarily in opposition to the expansion of slavery into new territories
2
. This was several years before Jefferson Davis became involved with the Confederacy.

Jefferson Davis's Political Affiliation​

Jefferson Davis was a member of the Democratic Party. He represented Mississippi in the United States Senate and the House of Representatives as a Democrat before the American Civil War
2
. In fact, Davis became publicly involved in politics in 1840 when he attended a Democratic Party meeting in Vicksburg and served as a delegate to the party's state convention
2

Davis's Election to Confederate Presidency​

Jefferson Davis was not elected in a traditional sense to the presidency of the Confederate States. Instead, he was chosen by a convention of seceded states meeting in Montgomery, Alabama, to be the provisional president of the newly created Confederate States of America
4
. This occurred in February 1861, after several Southern states had seceded from the Union following the election of Republican Abraham Lincoln as U.S. President in 1860
2
.It's worth noting that Davis was surprised at the news of his selection as Confederate President. He had expected war and hoped to become the commander in chief of the Southern armies rather than serve as president

I know you think you were trying to pin slavery on modern Conservatives and the GOP in general. But you see, the GOP was formed to eliminate slavery so no one on the right would have voted for Davis. It is very likely that had there been a vote for him, it would have all been Democrat.

But then, he was never elected to anything, was he?

You may want to put a cloth over all of your mirrors to save you from having to look at all that hatred on the daily.

Then you give legitimacy to criminals with that foolish attitude. Trump committed real crimes. Hillary did not.

Hell, if that is the attitude, then why should any Democrats object to Trump running in 2024?

That's like saying Presidents Andrew Johnson or Ulysses S. Grant should have allowed Jefferson Davis to run for president in 1868 or 1872. Just absurd.

That's a bit of a stretch.

Here's the problem any prosecution of Trump had. They tried to impeach him and it failed. Trump could validly argue that he was cleared of insurrection charges by the Senate.

The voters simply didn't care that Trump was convicted of felonies or indicted.

WE THE PEOPLE knew that the LAWFARE was pure election interference - you motherfuckers fooled no one !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Dr. Phosphorous]

And I voted for him. There is ZERO EVIDENCE for Trump being a traitor.

Fake elector scheme, stupid bitch. You probably don't even know what I'm talking about.

A few Republican state officials have already pleaded guilty. They were going to testify against Trump.

All your MAGA white trash ass does is make shit up.

Oh, get over yourself. Your guy won because of misogyny and upset over inflation.

Buyer's remorse is already setting in.
