look, I know there are plenty of ways in which Trump could in fact still wriggle out of this, he could still win in November, so on and so forth put that aside we can discuss it tomorrow today is for hooting and hollering and fireworks and throwing a parade

Yeah it’s ok to just enjoy bad things happening to an asshole.

He can’t pardon himself from a felony conviction in a state court is one thing I can call back on

Well, he’s held accountable for one for his criming.

NYC proving once and for all the motto is "FUCK YOU LANDLORD BASTARDS"

And he still had that moment in the court room hearing "guilty" 34 times. They can't take that away.

Yaaas. First time in his long crime filled life.

This honestly felt like Election Day to me, simply because I believe the results of the election depended pretty much entirely on this trial

Low-info, undecided voters who have trouble with sharp objects will STILL hopefully have “DJT is a convicted felon 34 times over” drilled into their skulls over the next five months.

Yup, exactly. These are exactly the voters who decide our presidential elections, and none of us can really fathom just how little they know about the candidates and issues
Avatar
seriously, we can be allowed a little joy today
Avatar
He’s had this coming his whole fucking life. It took too long, it’s not enough, etc…. But it still feels so good to hear and nothing he does can ever take that away

Collective joy is important to a cohesive society

I don't care if he runs to avoid actually going to jail. If he is hiding in another country, he can't fuck over this one.

Also, if he’s no longer a useful political asset, his sugar daddies at the ADF & the Kremlin will trade him in for a younger model and stop sending him money. We might actually see him and his family go broke and be forced to live normal lives like the rest of us peasants. 🤭

I kinda like the idea of him being an impoverished expat trapped in a country where he doesn’t speak the language
Avatar
I was actually unprepared for how much joy this would bring me
Avatar
if nothing else, we shoutget to have a bit of delicious malicious schadenfreude about it. this timeline provides so few opportunities for joy
Avatar
He might win in November, but he can't pardon himself for state charges.
Avatar
At the very minimum, we should at least acknowledge old Donny Trump may not, in fact, wriggle his way out of this one
Avatar
The bottom line is he looks like a weak felonious little bitch and now more of his time and his surrogates' energy and RNC money will be spent on this. Suboptimal place to be in for running a national campaign

And don't worry, the cat will get an extra treat on this special day.

The faux centrist meltdowns are gonna be sweet as well.

Winning the presidency wouldn’t get him out of jail, at least.
Avatar
Not legally, but he'd have ways if he became president again to get himself out, most of them involving pressuring appeals court, the governor, board of parole, etc...
Avatar
Arrest and try him for obstruction, then.

He is miserable and shamed, and there is never a downside to that.
Avatar
So I'm reading he can serve anywhere between 0 and 4 years in prison. So there is a nonzero chance he runs from behind bars. Can you imagine the campaign videos?

This might help the celebration a bit....

Nobody can take from us that Trump is having a shitty day and only one of his dipshit kids was there for him when it happened.

hmmmmmmmm not joining in on this one

just remember: he cannot legally vote for himself now. whatever happens next, that fact will warm my cold, withered heart
