    No shit?

    Exactly what happened is that Trump filed a bogus lawsuit then his crony at the Justice Department arranged for a bogus “settlement” so that Trump could get a slush fund from which to dole out money to other cronies.

    It’s blatant and overt fraud, and both of them should go to prison.

    Trump does 5 impeachable things every day.

    But it will only cause him to be impeached if the GOP turds in the house and the senate grow a conscience and get onboard with, ya know, upholding the Constitution.

      Recent polls have Democrats winning in a landslide in November.

      And we’re still months away with Trump fucking up more every day.

      And not just ruining America, but making the lives of his supporters harder and then saying he doesn’t care.

      Trump forgot the first rule of dictators, never openly betray your base.

      The less committed Trump supporters are actually abandoning him. And that’s wild. It gives me hope.

      The true believers will never leave, but there aren’t enough of them to force everyone else to follow. They will try, but likely fail, much like Orban failed in Hungary.

        And luckily the republicans won’t have rigged it.

          There’s only so much you can do to rig an election. You need it to be close enough that you can lie believably. The polls say that it will not be. At that point you need to basically launch a military occupation to keep power. Trump will certainly try it, but I’m not sure that he’s still popular enough to pull it off.

            Like armed, masked people snatching people? Or like the people he just gave a bunch of money to, or like the forces he used on people for a photo-op?

    And the worst part is, they still haven’t released all the Epstein files. Also, Donald Trump raped children.
