    It would be hilarious if it wasn’t so frightening. He wants to make it a criminal offense, punishable by execution, to say anything that makes him look bad

    I predicted that they will start arresting journalists this year but I didn’t realize how weak the entire media in US is. They didn’t have to lock anyone up because all the news is controlled by corporations anyway.

    Oh, the orange snowflake can’t stand people discussing his (lack of) ability to do his job? Maybe he should resign then…

    What’s interesting to me is that sedition and treason are acts against the state, not any particular representative of the state. But he’s clearly thinking he is the state, not just a representative. L’État, c’est moi much?

      Yeah. He’s made many comments in the past where it’s quite clear he views himself as king, anything he views as against the State is against him, anything he wants is what the State wants.

      That’s crazy. You think Trump’s ego would override his dogged commitment to Constitutional Principles and Democratic Norms? I just feel like this is a bridge to far, even for me, a staunch and outspoken liberal pundit.

      You’ll never win the next election if you don’t tone the far-left rhetoric way down and only say things you can prove beyond a reasonable doubt in a criminal court of law. That’s why you need to sit down, shut up, and support Liz Cheney in 2028.

      If it wasn’t for talking nonsense about Biden’s health (and Hillary’s too) I’m not sure the the Faux Cinematic Universe even had any other content for certain periods of time…

      I’m sure Trump will smirk at that, knowing Biden had him dead to rights for four long years and never pulled the trigger.

    That’s because his health itself is seditious and treasonous. If he’d just hurry up and succumb to his decades-long suicide by cheeseburger, that’d stand out as his one and only act of patriotism.
