Donald Trump seems to be upset with balancing court appearances against campaign rallies. Trump's attorneys claim this is unfair to face both.

I remember when I was 12 years old and had the opportunity to work a summer job at the neighborhood Henry's Hamburgers stand. I was excited. A chance to earn some summer fun money and wear a Henry's Hamburgers cap.
However, I had a problem. Mom and dad were planning a big cross country vacation to Florida. I wanted to do that vacation too. I waned to work at Henry's Hamburgers AND I wanted my vacation to Florida.
Sadly, reality hit in and I realized the summer job was out. I wanted to go on that vacation too badly.

Well, Donald Trump appears to be in the same dilemma. Campaigning? Or court? Court or rallies? Considering Trump will never become president ever again, thus unable to pardon himself, and considering those court appearances just might keep his ass put of jail, Donald Trump has a decision to make. Just like That 12 year old kid torn between sunshine and beaches or selling burgers and pocket money. What to do Donald.... what to do????

Be careful Donald with that decision. You just might end up serving up those burgers..... in prison.

The sad thing is the amount of "Muricans" who suffer from "Darth Vader syndrome" as I call it.

You know he's a villian, you know he slaughters good innocent peoples.. he could slaughter you for fun and still you find yourself so attracted to him and want to see him inflict more violence and pain and suffering.

Like flies to shit, or women to a serial killers like Charles Manson or Richard Ramirez.

Just like they couldn't replace Ronnie Raygun.. they won't replace him Trump but what do you do with his followers till his passing?

What happens to them if he does end up in jail? Do they write love letters to him and want to have conjugal rights with him or he becomes a figure like Mandela for them?

Black women tend to dislike The Donald. They are not prone to live in illusion-land, which is what he's been selling for the last 6 years at least.
I’m going another way. Black Women at least the ones I have known are a hybrid tough mom & tiger mom. They don’t put up with bullshit excuses or lies.
Both of those are go to items for team Trump.

One of the co-conspirators (suspected at least, not sure its confirmed) is basically saying, Yep we did it and we had a right to because of the Declaration of Independence. Which is not a legal document, so....

January 6th conspirators have spent more than two years claiming either that nothing really happened at all in the weeks leading up to January 6th or that it was just a peaceful protest that got a bit out of hand or that they were just making a good faith effort to follow the legal process. Eastman cuts through all of this and makes clear they were trying to overthrow (“abolish”) the government; they were justified in doing so; and the warrant for their actions is none other than the Declaration of Independence itself.

How many people get the excuse, “I can’t show up for my criminal trial because I’m job hunting”?

Or I'll do you one better, how many people get the excuse, "Your Honor, I can't show up for this criminal trial, because I got another criminal trial to go to".

It’s not officially confirmed but from the details of the indictment one of them basically has to be Eastman.

It is kind of incredible that this guy is willing to come straight out and admit they were going for a coup. What’s even more insidious is when you look at the ‘legal’ arguments he was giving to Trump they were all about the electoral count act and the Vice president’s constitutional powers. Now he’s admitting his goal was to abolish that government entirely.

Eastman is clearly an Antifa deep-sleeper agent. Heck, maybe it's _all_ false-flag, all the way down. Including Trump himself.

Well, you just had to know this was coming ...


The former president posted to Truth Social on Sunday that his legal team "will be immediately asking for recusal of this judge on very powerful grounds."

They will get a ‘no’ back the same day, haha.

Don't worry Donald's mouth will get him in enough trouble that he won't be able to campaign. It's happening as fast as I thought it would because the Orange sleaze has 0 self control, And that in itself makes him unfit to ever occupy the office of president ever again.

He seems even more deranged than usual. A "federal takeover", I assume that means martial law? Biden will get right on that. Unless of course Trump means his trusty "patriot" supporters amongst the armed forces (which he probably does have, and a lot.).

Chances that he's going to say fuck it, I'm losing this trial anyway so I'd better just go all in and call for, yep, an insurrection are rising fast. He's at what, day 3 since being indicted, and he's already sounding like a maniac?

Imagine someone who is in trouble for basically treason (I know the actual charges are specific and not that exactly) calling for a treasonous uprising. Sounds ridiculous but I think it may happen and soon unless his lawyers get to him--or unless they are with him in basically giving up on the legal trial and going for public support--like his lawyer going on the news the other day and saying something that on the surface is very bad for his client.

His calls for protests were met with huge crowds of...dozens or less. I didn't think I'd believe it, but the GOP might still ditch him yet if he looks like he's going down. While that would be awesome, it also probably means Desantis who I detest almost as much.
