    You seem really pissed off for a nontrumper.  Just laugh at the trumpers, bro.  They’re really gullible dumbfucks who worship this orange blob…you know, people completely unlike yourself.

Well, they were in Atlanta before Alberta.  Could be Jesus trying to send Trump a message.  Or there is the possibility they're all lunatics. 

You know what pisses me off even more?  Even if we said "gibbets and guillotines for everyone who straight up lied about this election", if they REALLY believe it, it's hard to prove they are actually lying.  It's the fucking George Costanza mantra come to life to destroy the country.

so who has the balls to press the first charges on Jan 20 immediately following the inauguration?

wasn't Trump the unnamed co-conspirator that put Michael Cohen in jail for the Stormy Daniels/campaign illegality thing?

I recall that the only reason the co-conspirator wasn't similarly charged and tried was because he happened to be the current POTUS.

I also tend to recall that legally, charges still could be made on January 21, 2021.

But some of you lawyer types could probably clarify.

At the end, it had the link for Trump's Ramp song. Still makes me laugh. I'd forgotten all about it in the four thousand years of shit storms that have swept over us in the last year.

 

I don’t think anyone in the federal government will go after Trump. The cesspool doesn’t want to start the precedent of indicting every ex-president, because one day it could be them or one of their own. It’s the same reason that indicting Hillary was always a R pipe dream.

Senate GOP opposition grows to Electoral College challenge

The effort to overturn Trump's loss may be defeated overwhelmingly while fracturing his party.

The Senate Republicans opposed to certifying President-elect Joe Biden’s win are heading toward a hefty defeat on Wednesday. The only remaining question is this: how badly do they lose?

Just 11 GOP senators have signaled support for separate efforts led by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Josh Hawley (R-Mo.). That makes 13 supporters — and many more have come out swinging against it.

“To challenge a state’s certification, given how specific the Constitution is, would be a violation of my oath of office — that is not something I am willing to do and is not something Oklahomans would want me to do,” said Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), who announced his decision Tuesday.

Sens. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) and Jerry Moran (R-Kans.) also said Tuesday that they would not object to the election results. In a statement, Moran said that doing so "would risk undermining our democracy — which is built upon the rule of law and separation of powers" and that "no victory for one’s cause today can be worth what we would lose tomorrow."

At least 23 GOP senators will vote to certify Biden’s election win, according to a series of interviews and statements. As of midday Tuesday, 15 Republican senators had not said what they would do publicly. With every Senate Democrat also sure to reject the challenge to Biden’s victory, President Donald Trump’s pressure campaign will easily fail even as it succeeds in splitting the GOP.

Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) said on MSNBC Tuesday that reaching his conclusion to endorse Biden’s win in key swing states was a “brutal” episode because a majority of his constituents were urging him to oppose the certification.

“It wasn’t an easy emotional decision,” Cramer said, arguing he would never want to see a situation where senators from other states were trying to disenfranchise North Dakotans. That in mind, he added: “I’m quite comfortable with it.”

Zero of those 14 think this has any shot. It’s 100% about being able to tell their constituents “hey we tried, I’m on your side here”

So, it was 'brutal,' because he understands why it is wrong, but a majority of his constituents don't understand, don't care to understand, have been propagandized to misunderstand, want their 'team' to win, are members of a cult, or all of those.

Pardon me, I'm going back to the liquor.

Mister Jones, I will give you $500,000.00 to rape your wife and both your daughters.

Have these people ever even considered integrity, civil responsibility, or even actual decency beyond the definitions provided by pieces of shit like Rush Limbaugh and Roger Ailes?

You just need some youtube videos with ominous voiceovers. That only actually depict people, gasp, counting votes. But if the voiceover is ominous enough you'll convince 45% of the country that there's some evil plot.

You can look it up -- my ideal dream ending to his presidency has always been having him dragged out of there and not by fancy ass feds but plain ol' DC flatfeet. Dragged across his red-tagged lawn and cuffed and stuffed on a trespassing warrant like a common squatter. We need to get over this idea that presidents, especially ex-presidents, are exalted beings. He is a fucking citizen with no more or no fewer rights than any of us. Treat him like you would an Anacostia wino. 

And don't be too nice, like the hand on top of the head as they put him in the back of the squad car. Trump doesn't like that as I recall.

Were he not President of the United States at the time of his arrival in Scotland, he would be permitted under Scottish/UK lockdown rules to enter the nation for business purposes as he is the proprietor and namesake of a number of properties in country.  Despite the fact that Trump is only the 16th largest equity partner on his namesake Scottish resort, behind such other vaunted non-billionaires as the Director of the Menuhin Trust.  

Can y'all think of a more appropriate end to his presidency?  He is going to claim he has emergency business in Scotland, be allowed to travel there, on U.S. taxpayers' dime, to visit one of his resorts/golf courses.  He will finish his administration doing what he did during most of it, grifting us, enriching one of his resorts, and not doing any fucking work along the way.  This is actually fucking perfect.  Your cunt of a mother was from there and with any luck, you'll fucking die there.  Close the loop you fucking imbecile.

A friend of mine wrote this:

Quote

On March 23, 1933, Adolf Hitler argued that what “the left” had done was so outrageous, that Germany should abandon democracy and make him dictator. The elected officials did.

He was supported by the Catholic Party, all conservative parties, and the majority of Protestants. The only parties to oppose him were the Democratic Socialists and the Communists.

Since everyone other than socialists and communists supported Hitler, why is it a talking point among pro-Trump groups that Hitler was a socialist, and therefore a leftist? Because they want to rationalize engaging in exactly the same kind of coup that Hitler managed—we have to abandon democratic practices because “the left” is so bad—while pretending they aren’t doing exactly what Hitler did.

A lot of people reason by identity rather than politics. That is, they engage in the fantasy that good people, and only good people, will enact good policies. So, when trying to decide how to vote, just look for someone for someone who understands you, who is like you. That’s called “identification.” There’s a kind of narcissism in it—or maybe political solipsism is a better word. You just look out for yourself, and vote for someone who will look out for you, and….what, exactly, is supposed to happen? There can’t be a one-to-one relationship of identities (young, old, middle-aged, no kids, lots of kids, a disabled kid) between voters and political figures because there aren’t that many people in Congress (and voting on this basis always hurts the smaller groups). In addition, what are called social groups (not social in the sense of being about socializing, but group memberships that are important for a sense of self, such as having a child who gets accommodations in schools, having a a dog, or being evangelical Christian) don’t necessarily lead to policy affiliation. Not everyone with a dog wants off-leash dog parks, after all.

Good political figures should be able to look out for lots of different kinds of people; that’s what democracy requires. Diversity is a fact.

But a politics of identification assumes that identity is stable and monocausally determines policy affiliation. With unintentional irony, self-described “right wing” media figures throw themselves around about “the left” engaging in “identity politics,” yet that’s what they offer to their audience: the assumption that their identity (being “conservative”) necessarily leads to one political agenda (that is never clearly stated in the affirmative). It’s generally what’s called a “negative identity”—people are “conservative” just because they aren’t “liberal” (and vice versa).

What people call “right-wing” politics should be called reactionary toxic populist nationalism. It isn’t conservative. Conservativism is a political ideology that, although I disagree with it, even I will say is generally internally coherent and principled. Pro-Trump politics isn’t internally coherent or principled—it’s irrational factionalism. Using a private server is terrible, unless it’s a Trump family member. Pornography is terrible, unless it’s a Trump family member. A problematic charity is terrible, unless it’s Trump’s. There are no principles that are applied consistently across groups.

Supporting Trump comes from two sources. First, there’s charismatic leadership. He’s decisive and confident and (they think) successful. People drawn to Trump for this reason believe that politics isn’t complicated, that the right solution is obvious, and that politicians make things unnecessarily complicated because they’re doofuses. They believe that “regular people” (like them) are screwed over by our current political system, and that Trump understands them, and is looking out for them. They know he isn’t a doofus because he says things are simple, he’s confident he can solve them, and they saw him be decisive on a (scripted) TV show. He feels transparent to them.

They believe that because everything he says, and even the way he stands, shows that he is clearly a successful guy who gets them and who knows what needs to be done. And he’ll cut through the bullshit and get it done.

And they only pay attention to information that says that what they believe about Trump is true. They reject any criticism of Trump on the grounds that it is criticism. They believe what they believe is true because it’s what they believe, and anything that says what they believe is false must be false because it contradicts what they believe.

These are people, in my experience, who make the same mistake over and over, and who get scammed. A lot. They’re people who are often good and kind, and who believe that Scripture means what it seems to mean to them, and that people are who they say they are. That’s why they get scammed. They believe that the world is not complicated, but that bad people make it seem complicated, and so they like people who are decisive and confident. Con artists are always decisive and confident (so are a lot of badly informed people).

I have to digress and say that, since I’ve spent a lot of my life arguing with all sorts of people, this way of thinking about the world (it’s all really simple, and people just try to make it complicated, and we can solve this problem that no one else has solved by being thoroughly commitment to this simple solution that, for inexplicable reasons, no one else has ever adopted) is all over the political spectrum. It isn’t just Trump supporters (here, for instance, is a nice discussion of how it’s playing out right now among democratic socialists).

Second, many people support Trump in a purely reactionary way—he is NOT “libruls” (whom they believe to be the cause of all problems in the world. He will (and does) crush them, and, since they think libruls cause all the problems, crushing them will solve all the problems. It’s still toxic populism, in that it’s saying that there are some Americans who aren’t really American, whose views shouldn’t be represented (or even discussed), and who should be excluded from power.

Those two kinds of support—here is a strong, decisive person with excellent judgment who will cut through all the bullshit, and here is someone who will purge our government and culture of liberals and their influence—are the two kinds of support for Hitler.

Am I saying that Trump is Hitler? No.

Am I saying that the people who are supporting Trump would have supported Hitler? That is exactly what I’m saying.

@Mrs Whiggins  I'm around, just went dark for the Holidays and now I'm busy AF with the new Congress.

Short of Trump fleeing to Russia or Saudi Arabia to avoid extradition, Florida makes a ton of sense because the Homestead exemption allows him to shield considerable assets from the goverrnment.  That's in essence what Dan Bilzerian's dad did.  I don't see Trump being nearly has finanically savvy with hiding assets, and he (Trump) definitely doesn't have clever children who can help him launder his money and offshore it.

Florida's homestead and exemption laws are quite similar to Texas.  It's not enough to keep him living in any kind of style, let alone that faux Versailles shit he loves.  Unilimited homestead value, IRAs, 401k, and a small amount of personal property (less than Texas by a lot).  And if he files for bankruptcy, fugeddaboutit.

Tracing assets will be difficult.  Theres already information out there about dozens of LLCs that shield various assets.

And, state homestead and other exemptions don't guard against tax liens, or other federal government liens, as for criminal fines or restitution.
