“Babe wake up, new most corrupt thing ever just dropped”
Accuser makes it sound like he was not found guilty of rape. If Trump is not impeached the US will be rightly viewed as an autocratic banana republic.
honestly, fuck impeachment. society’s morale would be improved more if other methods were achieved
Frankly, the continuing inaction to do nothing at all to even admonish the administration for openly corrupt behavior turning everything into a personal benefit for trump is depressing even if someone implemented ‘other methods’.
As bad as Trump is, it’s more worrying that no one is even vaguely willing to go along with ousting him. The handful of GOP that was even vaguely on the fence has been ousted at this point. Since the supreme court has ruled that openly politically aligned and outright racist districting is ok, and challenges about each state’s districting are only ever valid if the challenge would strike down a democrat plan…
You think Congress has the power to enforce an impeachment even if they rule that way? We’re beyond banana and full mango.
I feel like we blew past banana republic a while back and are onto deciding whether we’re a nation of laws at all anymore. The idea that the US is a democracy is laughable.
It’s still a Democracy as long as we have elections. Once MAGA cancels elections, it’s Civil War.
it’s Civil War.
Unless there’s something better on TV.
Oh, we’ll have elections.
They are just trying to decide how convincing they can get away with making it look like a free and fair election without letting it actually be free and fair.
Putin for example has decided that 88% support is “close enough” to a free and fair election… for now.
how convincing they can get away with making it look like a free and fair election
I believe all elections in the US going forward will be putin style elections, the rethugs will just issue a decree that the supreme leader won again and this time he going 95% of the votes. All hail king turd
Elections are not the defining trait of democracies. Technically they are not even a requirement. This is why plenty of autocracies can actually have a ton of elections.
Elections are not the defining trait of democracies
Obviously, he meant free and fair elections, not show ones in dictatorships. Legitimate elections define democracy.
I agree, but again. Elections are not even technically required. There are democratic decision making structures that don’t rely on election of representatives or voting. Specially on direct democracies, it’s but one of the many ways to ensure the prevalence of democratic values.
sure it is, poors get one set of laws and rich get the other, as is tradition for the “roman model” of governance
The fact that democracy put us here is what’s laughable.
to be fair, the amerikkkan version of democracy has always been corperatocracy or christocracy… never was or ever will it be real democracy
How do you people write that without cringing yourself to death? It’s like tweens writing Micro$oft. Waow you really showed em with that original twist in the name
For the record, I hate this place as much as you - if not more.
Thanks for edgelord nonsense. The US is, by definition, a democracy.
He was found liable not guilty, and if you don’t understand the difference you should read instead of commenting.
Guilty and Liable are just different legal words for different kinds of cases, but they both mean the same thing:
HE DID IT!
He definitely did it, but liability is not guilt and you shouldn’t say such ignorant things in public.
fighting the good fight for the rapist pedophile, are we? you should be so proud of your good deeds, good character, and integrity
Nope, I’m fighting the good fight against ignorance. I already said he totally did it.
people like you are the most subservient, idiotic, cuckolded anti-democratic self-owning dipshits on the planet, and we can all collectively thanK YOU and your friends’ absolute retardation for the current state of the world
Really, I think the current state of the world is the result of idiots proliferating. People who don’t understand the difference between liability and guilt, for example.
pull the mushroom out of your sphincter
Pull the fingers out of your ears and accept the free Middle School vocabulary/ civics lesson.
Accuser makes it sound like he was not found guilty of rape
He wasn’t. It was a civil lawsuit. He was found liable.
Guilty and Liable are just different legal words for different kinds of cases, but they both mean the same thing:
HE DID IT!
but they both mean the same thing
No, they don’t. Being intentionally stupid doesn’t help your cause.
All pretenses of not being a personal bludgeon have been dropped.
Was there any pretense before?
Well corporate media outlets held a pretense to toe the line and try to keep social democratic movements from gaining popularity by pretending all is normal, all is well.
Sure, when it comes to media, but the pretense of the doj not being a cudgel is what i meant
Oh for fuck’s sake…
What would France do?
Not elect Trump in the first place.
Whatever AIPAC tells them to do, same as us. The Epstein honeypot swept up leaders across the globe, including in France.
Every day, worse.
It really is fucking astounding how every day finds a way to be worse than the one before…
As it will, until people organize and push back.
Will you have more capability to do that tomorrow, or less?
“And then, things got worse”, used to be a joke about the arc of Russian history. Things sure have changed quickly.
forget luigi, it’s time for fucking mario
Hasn’t he given her enough money? You already know she’s unforgivably litigious, so you give her another reason to sue, after the judge inevitably throws out this case, like they’ve thrown out every one of these cases?
He hasn’t paid a cent
And it sounds a lot like you’re accusing her of being vexatious
Why the fuck shouldn’t she be vexatious? Doesn’t that just mean angry? I think she’s justified in being angry.
Vexatious in this contexts implies vexatious litigation which is a form of abuse against the legal system and very much what he wants people to think she’s doing
But isn’t he initiating this litigation?
The law is not written in stone. Different DOJ’s interpret things differently, from other DOJ’s. That is why a “well-written” law is ambiguous, so it can potentially generate large amounts of legal costs and fees.
this poor woman will never have peace until she is dead.
I hope she 86s his ass, this time.
Of course they are. Vindictive retributions are back on the menu (did they ever leave?).
Open, rampant corruption. We are watching the disintegration of the “Great Experiment” in real time.
Economic collapse and balkanization will follow, and that’s for the best, really. Our state governments are much more effective at governing, and the feds have become too power drunk, greedy, and frankly ridiculous to hold office any longer, let them go.
We have at least four nations within our borders, time to divide into smaller, more efficient governments. The largest fleet on Earth needs to be dismantled, we can’t afford our world police delusions. We tried, sorry kids.
I feel fortunate to live in my state. It is far more coherent and democratic than the bullshit of the Federal government.
Actually she is his adjudicated rape victim, not accuser
CNN is owned by a MAGA billionaire shithead and the use of the word “accuser” instead of “sexual assault survivor” is likely intentional.
Make corporate media responsible for spreading misinformation again.
MCMRFSMA!
Rolls off the tongue like a fine … rusty school bus.
If hell is real (fat chance), I wish Trump and all his cronies to rot for eternity there stubbing their toes on a coffee table and stepping on Legos every day when they get out of bed each morning.
I wonder if she qualifies for the slush fund Trump created for victims of a weaponized DoJ?
Will no one rid us of this turbulent
priestTodd Blanche?God I’m so sick of this entire corrupt administration and their fucking childish vindictive bullshit.
