    The eye-popping judgment against former President Trump

    First of all, what the fuck is that doing starting the article? “The eye-popping judgement” is a direct and proven result of his crimes for goddamned fucks sake. That was the whole fucking point of suing him. It was the crimes that were eye-popping you idiot fucks. “ewwwww can yewwww beleeeeev the juuuuudgement agaaaaiiinnst hiiiim” jesus christ.

    Goddamn thehill.com, I thought I could read one fucking article without seeing some idiot bullshit but NOPE. Later they give prominent article space as to whether or not he “made it big in NYC” from a Pace university professor. Who might be the smartest guy in the world, but when I go for a generic quote that Ricky from School would know I don’t typically dial into Pace university. I’m . . . not even sure where that is, actually. Whatever - nothing wrong with it at all, just . . . y’know. Try calling, I dunno, Stanford or Penn or something. It’s just very random.

      Pace University is a private college in NYC for people who can’t get into NYU or Columbia and don’t want to go to CUNY. That’s why they asked that guy.

      Although you could just ask any rich socialite from a nice building on the Upper East Side and they could tell you the same: people have hated Trump for years because he’s boring and fat. It’s that simple.

          I only use criticism that will sway his supporters. They like the arrogance, self-absorbtion, and rudeness. Those are positives for them, or only minor issues.

          Don’t even mention them because they like that he annoys Democrats. It’s as if a Republican told you they didn’t like Pete Buttigieg because he’s openly gay. That wouldn’t sway you right? You might be more likely to vote for him to piss off Republicans.

      It’s eye-popping in the sense that I never expected him to have to face any sort of consequence proportionate to the magnitude of the heinous shit he did. That’s not normally how we do justice in America.

    What’s with this constant attitude that Biden, in much better shape and not significantly older than Trump, is on the verge of death?

        No, most people are not happy about voting for an old Republican of a Democrat.

        No, insulting Biden does NOT mean I like Trump in any way nor want him to win.

        People can be and are unhappy about both choices.

          Then the question becomes, what’s with the people who are not like you, who focus on Bidens age without attributing the same vulnerabilities to Trump?

          Fully aware you’re not expected to have the answer to that, you’re not responsible for them folks.

              Not to mention, his age is statistically unlikely to be related to his mortality, considering his disgustingly unhealthy lifestyle and diet. It’s a wonder that shitbag hasn’t already sprung an irreparable leak. 🤮☠️👀

        Fascists view the enemy as simultaneously weak, decrepit and pathetic… while also being sharp minded machiavellian mastermind strong men.

        and which it is depends entirely on the moment and argument at hand.

    PAC sending funds as we speak. Why just vote for a dumb criminal when you can pay to keep him out of jail?

    If Trump gets immunity on election interference, he can become president and work himself out of this mess. I still don’t understand how Clarence Thompson is still allowed on the case for this decision!? Why haven’t the other justices refused to hold the hearing till Clarence recuses himself?

    Sorry, maybe a tangent but I can’t help but think of this upcoming ruling in light of all of this.

    James can begin seizing his assets, which include iconic New York properties such as 40 Wall Street and Trump Tower.

    Is Truth Social based in New York? She should take that toy away from him too.
