This is what's going to happen:
Scenario 1: no charges are brought against Trump. This makes the Ds look weak and hysterical for this endless hearing. Biden loses 2024. Scenario 2: charges are brought but fail to stick and are dismissed. Again, weak, hysterical, lose. Scenario 3: charges are brought and a protracted trial begins against Trump. Trump is unable to run. DeSantis, who is not a Trump supporter, wins. Scenario 4: charged and quickly convicted. Base moves on and votes for DeSantis. Biden would have benefitted from a divided GOP. He can definitely beat Trump because he already did. But he probably cant beat DeSantis. This entire thing is poor political strategy. |
This isn’t about politics. It’s about saving democracy. |
You understand that this is all past tense and that the people who did it are in jail, right? |
Did you ever watch Community? You’re Jeff in Remedial Chaos Theory. Let’s see… in each of your dumb scenarios, the Democrats lose somehow. Totally a straight shooter here, people! More like everyone can the GOP’s guilt, but GOP voters are the worst people in the world (as are GOP elected officials and GOP judges). |
Trump and Ginni and Clarence and all the rest of the planners are still walking free. |
If you really believed that, you would be focused on Ds winning elections in order to remain in power. |
Oh wow you got me. You can clearly see from your basement what I’m doing to campaign. The financiers of the insurrection are going to be revealed by DOJ. We really don’t need your advice. I’m on the side that doesn’t cheat elections. If you are guilty, you should find an honest lawyer and not rely on the one the GOP offers. |
So it looks like Pat is taking that off ramp. He will be deposed this week. |
Is honor dead? |
Source? |
What? How does this make sense to you? |
Trump tried to use a violent mob to overthrow our government. Bringing forth evidence of that effort is sufficient reason for this committee’s work, whatever the political outcome. God bless Liz Cheney and her strong work on this. I hate her right wing politics, but credit where it’s due. |
And there is still a sickeningly large percentage of Republicans who pretend it didn't happen / was Antifa/FBI/anyone but us and still believe Trump's Big Lie of "the election was stolen" and that needs to end because that is what drove this attack and unless these kinds of warped Republican beliefs are fixed, we remain in danger. |
