What I think of every time I see the Trump mugshot

Honestly, while the humor and memes might seem amusing, it's important to recognize that this is precisely what they want. By making the situation seem ridiculous, we risk diverting attention from the serious and substantial allegations against Trump.

We shouldn't allow them to manipulate the narrative and trivialize the issues at hand. Their intention is to downplay the gravity through memes and laughter, while the actual impact on global democracy is a significant concern.

Stay focused on the real issues and their implications.
