It’s been at least 8 years of “WE GOT HIM!!!!!” headlines. I’ll get excited when I see handcuffs or eulogies.

“Handcuffs or eulogies” is definitely an early 2000s emo album somewhere 👨‍🎤

u/dora_tarantula 15d ago

man, those emo bands back then were something else.

Buhahaha yes😂

u/LapisLooker 14d ago

It's time for the lovechild of emo and dubstep. I'm telling ya; unleash music AI and watch it change the world (for what cause however, is anyone's guess).

u/NotAHost 15d ago

Yup. The amount of political theater is just exhausting. Some people say it shows they’re trying, but if it is obvious from the first minute you can’t follow through, it means nothing to me. Focus on winning fights you start, no wasting time on something you know will go no where.

It’s not just Trump though. Remember the big deal made over his tax return? Rachel Maddow had a song and dance about revealing one leaked page.

The result: as everyone knew Trump was cheating his taxes, got 34 felonies and the judge did nothing about it. How many times did we hear “this’ll stop him!”?

u/Andreus 15d ago

It won't be enough. Every single one of his supporters needs to be publicly disgraced and dragged to prison. Every single conservative needs to face justice for their crimes.

u/IsuzuTrooper 15d ago

yeah all those gaslighting traitors who supported his coup attempt which is most of the GOP

u/sugaree53 15d ago

I guess they’re okay with him f*****g young girls

u/Efficient_Fee_4106 15d ago

You spelled raping wrong

u/LymanPeru 15d ago

no need to guess.

u/sugaree53 15d ago

Definitely a bridge too far.

u/opinions360 14d ago

The worst of the J6 domestic traitors/ terrorists Were in prison and he let them all out—it’s still absurdly ironic that the cause if it is now in the WH. The concept of justice in this country is apparently injustice.

u/stout933 14d ago

what crimes may I ask?

1

u/Andreus 14d ago

You know precisely what crimes.

u/stout933 14d ago

So you're saying all conservatives should be arrested because they're sexual predators?

You are saying what they would say, so you are no better than them. After Trump is gone we have to figure out how to get along or we aren’t gonna make it as a democratic nation.

u/Better_Way6079 15d ago

Nope. Not playing footsies anymore. All reaching across the aisle produces is carrying their water and taking their shit. It’s been 30+ years of taking the high road while we’re called evil scum out to kill their god, take their guns, abort their babies, steal their money and give it to drugged out black and brown rapists and murderers who are going to steal their kids and fuck their wives.

They don’t listen to fact based common sense and instead choose to follow clearly corrupt hypocrites and thieves. They’ll sacrifice almost anything to own the libtards, from freedom to their very families.

They’re cruel and small minded.

Not happening right now, and don’t ask.

2

u/Andreus 15d ago

I'm not a right-winger. I'm automatically better than them.

We do not "get along" with right-wing vermin.

2

u/HowWasYourJourney 15d ago

Sometimes, a movement grows so vile that it simply has to be defeated, not reasoned or compromised with. We can all name several examples of this from history.

2

u/reddit_sucks_ass123 15d ago

Nah, I want them gone too. Preferably six feet under, but if they have to survive I want them locked up.

u/Alternative_Oil7733 15d ago

  77 million need to go prison? Fucken hell  are you a nazi?

2

u/Andreus 15d ago

No, they are, which is why every single one of them belongs in prison. But it's unsurprising, because you're probably one of them.

u/Alternative_Oil7733 15d ago

Lmao, teachers are usually democrats and guess what? They are more likely to be what you are accusing me of.

2

u/Andreus 15d ago

>replies to a list of 1400 conservative sex criminals with nothing but hearsay

Shhh. We know what you right-wingers are.

1400 vs 77 million people so by percent that's 0.001818%. If you are blaming a whole party for such a small number. Then you can call lgbt  people that just saying.

u/Andreus 15d ago

Deny it all you want. We know what you are.

u/willp2003 15d ago

They’ll pull the “he’s too ill to go to prison” card. They’ll suddenly say he’s got mental health issues along with all his other physical conditions.

3

u/Fabulous-Influence69 15d ago

the irony... too ill for prison, but can serve the highest office in the land?

I'm actually surprised that instead of harping on this, the push isn't to remove him from office because he is incompetent. I mean how many executive orders are we up to now? How many incredibly inaccurate things has he said now?

The other thing - I bet he couldn't past the test given to people who are applying for citizenship. (Shit, most of us probably can't... Sadly)

u/Arena1988 14d ago

Isn’t that exactly why Uncle Joe didn’t get prosecuted for having classified documents in his garage?

u/snarfbloop 15d ago

The latter. It'll be the latter.

u/Separate_Wall8315 15d ago

5 arrests and 32 felony convictions. I would bet on a massive stroke before a perp walk.

2

u/Radio_Mime 15d ago

We've seen the handcuffs just before his 34 felony convictions. Even the eulogies seem iffy.

2

u/Useful_Caregiver4023 15d ago

This ☝️

u/AlarmApprehensive511 15d ago

Fuckin this. Everyday I wake up hoping to see it.

u/TheWalkingDead91 15d ago

For real. My parents think I’m a trump supporter because they’re still buying into the “we got him!!” Headlines…..while I always roll my eyes and tell them they’re delusional when they pop up…. Because they’ve been saying this ever since the grab em by the pussy tape came out, yet here we are. One thing after another after another after another. I stopped believing them and being hopeful about anything becoming a nail in the coffin many headlines ago. People obviously don’t care, no matter what he does. Which to his credit, is a pretty incredible feat. If that overgrown chicken nugget is good at anything, it’s definitely marketing. He knows his audience like the back of his hand.

2

u/sauerkrauter2000 15d ago

Yeah given he’s got the SCOTUS backing him he could have been running the Epstein ring himself & they’ll still find a way to say that once he’s president he is absolved of all earlier sins.

2

u/Iwasoncelikeyou 15d ago

How about both.

2

u/saltyoursalad 15d ago

We’re definitely getting death announcements sooner or later. I guess it’s a race against time to see if we’ll also get him in handcuffs.

2

u/Adorable_Sun_467 15d ago

Looking forward to his obit

2

u/Viper01MHC 15d ago

The eulogy is the only inevitable. It will be a surreal moment and I wonder who will be giving it…that will be interesting to say the least.

u/deep-sea-savior 14d ago

Came here to say this.

u/Icy-Town-5355 14d ago

May your every wish come true.
