I hope this narcissistic, lying piece of shit rots in prison.

[–] Nuke_the_whales 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Tamper your expectations cause that is never going to happen. Best we can hope for is public humiliation and a big Mac overdose

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

I also believe that it's never going to happen, but I still hope it will.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

Already rotting. We're running out of time

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Let's say you had the choice between :

1-Getting a million dollars, no strings attached

Or

2-Trump goes to prison for his crimes for the rest of his life

Which one do you choose?

A million dollars buys nice things, but I don't think it would ever come close to the joy and satisfaction I'd get from option 2.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I would easily choose Trump spending the rest of his life in prison.

While suddenly having a million dollars would be amazing, I'm not struggling financially, so I don't truly need it.

Our country needs justice.

Oh, NOW he's upset about election interference. Fucking weirdo.

[–] takeda 57 points 3 months ago (1 children)

He actually declared he was running right after the DOJ announced the investigation. Only after his announcement Jack Smith was appointed special counsel, to remove any appearance of it being political.

Of course that didn't stop him from calling it that way anyway.

The real reason he is still running is to avoid jail.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 months ago

He's telegraphing his next moves. Pay attention.

So if you’re running for president, you CANNOT BE CONVICTED OF CRIMES YOU COMMITTED

[–] evidences 27 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Well duh presidential candidate immunity!

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm announcing my candidacy for the 2064 election.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

How old are you? I mean unless you're 40 now, you might be too young for 2064.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

We're good. About to turn 51. I think I'll be just about ripe for leadership by then. Gives me time to develop some golf skills.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

You can count on my vote if I become a US citizen by then.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 3 months ago

DERANGED WEIRDO YELLS AT SKY

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 months ago

Hillary Clinton is unimpressed.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 months ago

Seems that Mr. Trump wasn’t singing the same tune when it went his way in October 2016 with a certain FBI director…

[–] [email protected] 16 points 3 months ago

You can tell Jack Smith is a WEAK Man because he doesn't Rant and Rave and Complain and ask for Donations when Judges rule against him like TRUMP does!

[–] grumpo_potamus 13 points 3 months ago (4 children)

Does he own any other outfits? Every picture I see of him for like at least the last 6 months, he's wearing the same suit and tie.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)
[–] grumpo_potamus 8 points 3 months ago

The cream/white shape wear is so 2017

[–] elliot_crane 3 points 3 months ago

If you look at the first picture closely enough, you can see the outline of his Depends. If I had to see it, so do all of you.

[–] numbermess 7 points 3 months ago

It’s a thing. Just like he says the same goddamn shit over and over and over again, he also wears the same goddamn shit over and over again. People love a fixed point.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Probably part of the reason he smells so bad

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I'm willing to bet he's stupid enough to think "Red White and Blue" will be so impressive to his idiot followers.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 months ago

Oh, no, boo-hoo

[–] bitjunkie 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

So still zero sense of irony with these motherfuckers? Got it

[–] Lobreeze 2 points 3 months ago

Hypocrisy is the word you are looking for.

Nothing about this is ironic.

[–] pingveno 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Well Mr. Trump, if you hadn't dragged your heels for years, this wouldn't still be going during the election.

[–] barsquid 6 points 3 months ago

Is "Merely an Attempt to INTERFERE WITH THE ELECTION" referring to Smith in 2024 or downplaying Donald's behavior in 2020 as like "just a prank, bro."

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Why isn't he letting Rudi handle this
