I hope the catch these criminals quickly.

This is becoming the norm. Its also what happens when you dont stop maga when you know their head honcho is guilty.

Not an exception. Leftists bombed the Capitol in 1983.

1983!!! Thanks again for proving my point.

 

[multivita-man]

He will pardon them.

Murder's still a state crime, fortunately,.

Yep, it starts at the top,

 

[Pound4abrown]

Recommending, not demanding. Just as a point of order.

 

[Ikari]

He will pardon them.

@Hamish Howl correctly pointed out that he couldn't pardon state crimes.

it is also breaking news in Germany

As if the world needed another reason not to visit the United States of America.

 

[Chomsky]

I wonder if Trump will be sending in the Marines to protect the Dems . . .

@Hamish Howl correctly pointed out that he couldn't pardon state crimes.

Federal prosecution would take precedence over any state charges in the execution of politicians in their homes.

Just pointing out that your “exception” was not an “exception”.

 

[cAPSLOCK]

It has to be a state trial to prevent a Trump pardon.

Its hard for me to believe you'd buy the line of reasoning that Trump would pardon this suspect assassin.

 

[ASHES]

Just pointing out that your “exception” was not an “exception”.

You had to go back over 40 years. Could we keep it to this century?

 

[multivita-man]

Respectfully, I think it's the wrong message, but I get why he's saying it. Obviously concerned for the protesters and also worried that law enforcement may not be adequately prepared for what could happen - and they may not be. Of course that would be another excuse for Caesar MAGA Augustus to invoke the Insurrection Act. Nice trap we're in right now.

I have no superiority complex at all. I simply know how much education I have compared to the general population, and more especially when compared to Trump's core of idiot acolytes. His "poorly educated" might tempt anyone to have a superiority complex.

As for what is proven "when they actually have to speak", have you listened to any of Trump's extemporaneous excretions over the past 2 years? I could post some transcripts if you like - although none from the White House website, which has taken down all of his previous ones because they're tired of having them parsed by intellectuals and psychiatrists calling for his removal from office under the 25th Amendment.

White House purges transcripts of Trump's remarks from its website

The White House told NBC News it has decided to post only videos. There still is one transcript remaining online, however: Trump's inaugural address.

https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/22/media/donald-trump-media-white-house-transcript-purge

No more transcripts of Trump remarks on the White House website (and the old ones are gone, too)

Videos will replace official written transcripts of Trump's remarks on The White House's website, NBC reported Wednesday night: As recently as Sunday, transcripts of Trump’s speeches and comments were still showing up in the “Remarks” section of WhiteHouse.gov. The next day, they were gone…

Let me know if you need more references.

Intelligent people understand that when Trump said " I love the poorly educated" he was ridiculing and mocking Hillary Clinton who accused her critics of being "deplorable and uneducated"

The US is looking more and more like an old dry wooden barn, stuffed with hay, with a kerosene lantern of Damocles hanging from the rafters waiting to light the inferno.

...and a Mad King standing at the door with a match

 

[Lursa]

Should we revisit the Republican Baseball practice?

That's your only example? It's an outlier.

Want to talk about the two assassination attempts on Trump?

Those were both conservatives. So...odd you'd try that example.

Should we go look at how the left talked about those events at the time?

How, exactly?

Liberals really don't think their shit stinks...

Seems we are less murderous and vengeful. Look at MAGA...they're cheering on TACO's Revenge Tour.

I agree with you here. They should not shut down the events. However, they could have information we're not aware of yet that went into that decision.

Wow, leftist action is so regular you only had to go back a mere 42 years to find an example.
I bet you can find a few leftist beligerants during the ultra recent US civil war if you try.

 

[ASHES]

Intelligent people understand that when Trump said " I love the poorly educated" he was ridiculing and mocking Hillary Clinton who accused her critics of being "deplorable and uneducated"

So he didn't deny his followers were uneducated deplorables, just that he loves them anyway.

 

[bomberfox]

For example, when Luigi Mangione shot and killed Brian Thompson, a lot of people in the US learned that if you kill people that are generally disliked, even if you get caught, you'll be a hero to many.

I dunno causing the deaths of possibly hundreds of thousands is not mere dislike.

 

[Pound4abrown]

You're not my keeper. I'll write exactly what I see has happened on this thread without passing it by you.

You want to play the school marm chastising everyone on the one hand and then spitting vile bullshit on the other, babe, you do you.
Your self-righteous bullshit still ****ing reeks

 

[Slartibartfast]

You don't always have to believe everything you read on a public bathroom wall.

Isn’t that from a song?

 

[Michael Cole]

I wonder if Trump will be sending in the Marines to protect the Dems . . .

I was thinking the same thing. Any word from the WH yet? Throw a brick, you get 4,000 NG and 700 marines. Kill Democrats?

Trump's EO covers all 50 states, FWIU. Where are the troops?

 

[ASHES]

I dunno causing the deaths of possibly hundreds of thousands is not mere dislike.

Exactly my point. Some people will come up with a reason to justify the violence to themselves, if it supports their perspective.
