The mic mute is not a perfect solution. Trump is going to be shouting over Bidens turn. We won’t hear it (much), but it’s going to make Biden lose his train of thought and stutter while the viewer can’t really tell Trump is screeching 20ft away

Yep, I drew out a plausible plan in another thread on how that could work.

Arrest them on corruption, Espionage, domestic terrorism, etc charges. Either move them to an offshore blacksite, or “accidentally” kill them during the arrest.

That would certainly fall under “official acts”, and if it’s overstepping authority, well, who cares because even if they’re deemed crimes, they were done in the context of official duties to keep this country safe.

And then when the corrupt SCOTUS members are purged, fill the seats with those that will uphold that Bidens orders were official acts. And Biden can pardon those executing his orders.

This is exactly what the SCOTUS just enabled. It’s absolutely abhorrent. And Biden would never do it because it’s obviously anti democratic and would establish a dictatorship.

But Trump WILL do it. And the current SCOTUS will allow it.

How many conservatives do you know that admit the severity of covid after the fact, even after losing loved ones?

Their heads are firmly buried in the sand. It’s a non-factor of that voting demographic.

More like “waaah people don’t like me because my entire personality is hating and harassing everyone that isn’t like me”

Many of us thought he was trying to lose in 2016, too. Garrison’s character beautifully depicted the phenomenon.

I don’t know how, but my mom could open jars better than me when I was a foot taller and much stronger than her. She’d make me move furniture around, and I’d hand her pickle jars.

And also hilarious, since he was all too happy to fully enable Trump.

All that power that he cheated our democracy to put in Trumps hands, so that he could use him as a puppet to further his far right agenda, has turned on him. Even after kissing the ring after falling in line again after a very brief “perhaps we’ve gone too far” moment on Jan 6th.

Fuck you, Mitch. You destroyed our democracy. You did this. You raised an idiot to a dictatorship thinking you could control him. Great fucking job.

“Stop saying the quiet part out loud during campaign season. You can do it afterwards again”

From the party that has actively encouraged these white nationalists at every step

I mean, he is. Non-ironically.

The closest (real) thing to this “deep-state” boogeyman of theirs is the Federalist Society, and the people who drew up Project 2025.

These are real organizations that conspire to circumvent the checks and balances that are supposed to protect the rights of the people in this nation, and the rule of law.

And while I don’t believe that Trump is at all involved in organizing these conspiracies, he has been more than happy to execute their wishes in exchange for power. And knowingly so.

So yes, Trump is part of the deep state. Factually.

No no no no, you don’t get it.

BIDEN is not a king. Because the conservative owned SCOTUS will rule that whatever crimes he commits in office are not done as official business.

TRUMP is the future first monarch. Only his crimes will be deemed official business.

This ruling is just setting him up for a SCOTUS pardon, which they just granted themselves the power to do, so he can assume his throne.

SCOTUS gave themselves the power to absolve the POTUS of crimes. And POTUS already has the power to absolve anyone else of federal crimes.

Yep. Totally what the founders wanted.
