About goddamned time
Don't celebrate until it sticks. I have a horrible feeling he's going to somehow weasel his way out of all of these indictments and still pull out a Biden vs Trump rematch in 2024.
Ranked choice voting can't come soon enough.
I'm not celebrating, I'm complaining. The evidence for this case has been a matter of public record for far too long before we even saw this indictment.
Exactly. Any regular person would be in prison for decades if not forever, a dozen times over, in the time it took for them to get even this far. After they're done, they should also look at all the people that obstructed this long too. They're complicit at the very least.
Every GOP senator and house member who participated in the coordinated plan to delay the vote is a co-conspirator.
They all hoped the coup would succeed and they could write the history - until they're punished the coup hasn't failed and they have every incentive to continue it.
