    Evidence wise, I think they proved it, but no jury is going to convict a former President of boring finance violations. I’m betting hung jury.

    it’s going to be a hung jury.  they only need one Republican voter on the jury. and the chances are very night that there are several.  
     

    would you trust any person who votes for Republicans in 2024 to do the right thing, ever? I wouldn’t.

    Not dead. Disappointing bump. 

    while Rudy (or Trump, or any other Republican officeholder or Republican voter, for that matter) dying would certainly be worth celebrating, watching Republicans’ lives be completely destroyed in real time is a delicious consolation.

    there's a large group of americans who have identified as (r) for a long time, probably because their parents were, and have been so turned off by politics (ironically, because of people like trump), that they are purposely disinterested and disengaged.  so when they vote (r), they don't even have to hold their nose.  they purposely don't follow it, they don't talk politics with their friends, they distract themselves with family, kids, reality tv, whatever, and haven't paid attention in 10-15+ years.

    there's no possible way 75mm people know what trump is all about and are like, cool, i'll pick him.  no fucking way.

    I think it’s actually the exact opposite of that.  In today’s world, it’s literally impossible for anyone, save and except someone like Dick Proenneke maybe - if someone like that exists today - to not know what complete and utter pieces of shit Trump (and 100% of every other (R) out there) are - even if they are purposefully disengaged or disinterested.  It is incredibly depressing, but yes, 75MM people know exactly what Trump is about, and pull that lever.  
     

    If someone tells you they vote for or support Trump, or any Republican for anything, they are telling you exactly who they are.  These people are similar to child sex offenders, or terrorists - there is no “yes, but, other he/she is an otherwise good person.”  No, they aren’t.  They are garbage.

    Nice.  I'm guessing that New Orleans is hot and sweaty as fuck right now, but that food makes it worth it.

    hot and sticky, like my balls.

    we were there for a week and there were showers on 3 different days, with a solid rain one afternoon.  i'll take that over the 145 in Austin lately for sure.

    And never ever ever forget: the MAGAts agree with him. They are more loyal to Russia (and more particularly, the “ideals” that Putin waves around) then they are to the actual United States, its Constitution, or the Rule of Law. MAGATs are fifth columnists.
    We should draw them out, help Trump encourage them to violently attack the government again, and slaughter them by the truckload when they do so.

    can we just skip straight to the slaughtering part?
