Orange stain second term results thread

Nah, it's only precedent for Republican actions. Democrats will still be blocked for reasons thanks to the rank partisanship of SCOTUS, at least until they neuter that.

This is a great accomplishment. Trump has convinced Musk's AI he is the most notorious criminal in DC. THose federalized troops should pick him up first.

Elon Musk's Grok calls Trump "most notorious criminal" in Washington, DC

The AI chatbot told users that Trump was the most notorious criminal in the city "based on convictions and notoriety."

Trump 2.0's level of corruption will never be topped. The Devil himself could never figure out how to outdo it.

Trump 2.0's level of corruption will never be topped.

The Dems were supposed to incarcerate his ass yet they failed even at that when lesser criminals face life sentences. Almost like the Dems were complicit in getting trump elected.

And they want to take another 5 seats from the house D's.

Soon: Trump moves all the presidents portraits outside the White House and replace with Putin and pure gold Trump statues.

Reminds me of that commercial for DirecTV (?), "Opulence ...I has it."
