NEVER AGAIN!!!

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down.
Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.

I cannot express how much I admire and respect this man. I supported him for president back in 2019 and will support him for ANY elected office in the future. He’s the real deal 💙💙
Great discussions

People.
They’ll lose their minds over a delayed train, snap over a slow barista. Let a spilled coffee ruin their day.
But when it comes to the big stuff, staying in the wrong job, letting their dreams die quietly. Wasting years on auto pilot.
Nothing. No urgency. No reaction.
We treat small problems like emergencies and the real emergencies as background noise.
Why do we do that?
Republicans in Congress should indeed have to answer for Trump's violent rhetoric and pay the price by losing elections. After all, they are the ones who have been enabling and empowering him. They had a chance to convict him - twice - in the Senate and refused. They deserve to be thrown out of Congress.
Trump would just be pathetic, but his enablers make him dangerous.
Oh, let's be generous J L - he's pathetic AND dangerous.
Lauren you are correct; he is dangerous AND pathetic. See, HCR's last paragraph. Many anchors & readers of Judge Merchan's "Decision and Order" missed the important Court findings of fact.
Pay attention to the decisions and the Judge's findings. Judge Merchan recited the Defendant's necessary intent to commit crimes (mens rea). The former president can be charged with those crimes particularly if the worst happens.
Per the Cornell Law School's Legal Information Institute (LLI) when a New York Judge rules on a Motion ( expanding the Gag Order) Judge Merchan does NOT need to state his findings or conclusions. NY Rule 52(a)(3).
But, Judge Merchan DID state his findings of fact & his conclusions. The Defendant has not & will not in my opinion challenge th sufficiency of the Court's evidence.
I agree with Andrew Weissmann; do not wait for the worst. Move forward with a Criminal counts now.
