Former president Donald Trump pleaded not guilty Thursday to charges that he conspired to overturn the results of the 2020 election, appearing in the federal courthouse that sits just blocks away from where his angry supporters stormed the Capitol building in an effort to keep him in power.
Not surprising at all. Has the man admitted to anything ever in his life?
“I’ve known Jeff [Epstein] for 15 years. Terrific guy, He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”
He has admitted grabbing them by the pussy. (when you’re a star they let you do it)
well, despite the risk of sounding boastful, he was willing to admit to being the best and most amazing at everything ever.
I still can’t believe that he actually got elected president. Fuck Hillary for being so fucking terrible that even this terrible POS beat her.
Edit: to be clear, I’m not mad that Hillary didn’t win, I’m just saying she is a terrible candidate that she even lost to Trump. And I hate her and the DNC for fucking over Bernie. This country would have a whole different/better if he had won.
Fuck the electoral college too.
Also fuck James comey
At least Comey had good motivations. I don’t think he anticipated the consequences and was naive at how rotten America was.
I don’t think we should shame someone for trying to uphold our collective (claimed) American values.
And fuck the DNC for manipulating shit so Bernie lost out on being the candidate instead.
This whole motherfucking thing could have been avoided if the DNC had just kept their fucking machinations to themselves … cause Bernie would have won.
I didn’t even vote that year. I just refuse to accept that “the lesser of two evils” bullshit that they want to fall in line and accept. I’d rather not give my vote to anyone than giving it to someone who doesn’t care about me.
Major life lesson for ya then bud: none of them know you exist, and don’t care about you personally.
Lmfao. That’s the dumbest life lesson in the world. How is it possible for one person to know more than 300 million people personally? Collective care makes sense to you at all? Does Hillary know you personally? Does Donald Trump know every single one of his voters personally? Damn, I can’t believe I have to explain this.
Of course he did. He’ll want a trial which will both stretch out the process towards the election, and give him the chance to put on a show for his throng.
I hope he ends up in a cell to minimize any further damage.
No cameras in fed courtrooms is a blessing and a curse. He can’t treat the room like a stage, but he can say anything he wants about what happened in the courtroom because his base won’t read.
It’s not like they acknowledge video evidence either anyways
The thing is, he can say what he wants out of the courtroom, but what is said in the courtroom matters most.
So far, his lawyers seem to be putting together a TV legal defense. As in, it meant to win over TV audiences, but won’t do jack shit in a courtroom.
“And I told the judge I’m a very stable genius with very smart friends and I’m not guilty, it’s as simple as that. And the judge laughed and said they know, we should go out for a big mac after this” And cult45 cheeers
Sadly, it’s more likely that Trump will claim that the Judge is deep state and then do some stochastic terrorism.
Depending on how that goes, Trump might end up waiting in jail for the trial to commence…
I get a lot of political spam emails. You best believe that they’re full of fiery rhetoric. They’re not calling for violence, or anything but campaign donations, but they are certainly full of “deep state”, “fake news”, “election interference”, “unjust indictment”, etc.
Eh, if he goes to prison but still gets enough electoral votes he can still be president. Being a felon is not a bar to running for president, just to voting for one. So a TV defense is quite possibly all he’ll need.
Except if he goes to prison for attempting to overthrow the US government, then the 14th amendment applies, and he cannot legally hold any office, or even be listed on the ballot.
Yes, if the January 6th charges stick that applies. But just going to prison isn’t enough, and not all of the charges are directly insurrection-related. I’m hopeful it will apply, but I’m not going to count on it! I’m still voting against him, even though I live in NY so the chances he wins my state’s electoral votes are quite low.
It’s like he can walk out on the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and still get elected.
Lol someone please perp walk him for my amusement.
Looking forward to the GA indictment where they say he’ll get a mugshot taken. Not sure if that’s changed or not.
Sadly, it probably doesn’t matter what law is on the books about it. It’s a southern red state, and like it or not he is a former president and a white man of influence.
Fulton County Sheriff Pat Labat is on record, even with Fox News today, saying that unless someone tells him different, if locally arraigned Trump will have his fingerprints and mugshot taken, so there’s a tiny amount of hope there.
He’ll probably smile for that mugshot
We just need to make sure no one holds any of the doors open for him on the way in to take it.
What does a habitual liar do when called on his lies besides lie some more.
Keep on digging Donnie, you’ll hit Chinese soil eventually.
The opposite side of the earth (Antipode) to DC is actually Augusta in Australia! At least that’s the closest city!

I have to admire the composure of the judge who did not bust out laughing when he said it.
Add this to his pile of lies.
what happend to stop the count
