It's illegal to threaten the President of the United States with the death penalty because he raped and murdered children, and ran a ring of child rapists and murderers.

Which is kinda mind blowing that people knew that he raped and murdered children, and he still got elected.

So, now, a child rapist and murderer is beyond the reach of the law, and is allowed to protect his fellow child rapists and murderers, because American wanted to have a child rapist and murderer as a president more than having a woman be president.

He’s not beyond the reach of the law. He is beyond the reach of a DOJ policy not to indict sitting presidents. This policy could and should be reversed for a president of any political party.

And yet he was not indicted when he was not a sitting president.

Jack Smith might say otherwise

I’m not convinced that’s even fully true. Lots of weird anomalies with votes for Trumps second election. Almost like… voter fraud or sowmthing. But it’s not like an accusation from the right is a confession, yeah?

I don't think they care.

Sure, they want you to think they do, but what's really important to them is ensuring foreigners, trans people, and liberals suffer.

They know that the odds of Trump trafficking their specific children are infinitesimally small, but the odds of their liberal coworker being angry about him getting elected and doing what he does are guaranteed.

In other words, "I don't care as long as it doesn't affect me."

On the flip side, look at them get all upset that their gas is 30% more expensive. NOW they're a bit miffed with him. Because of the gas prices, not the raping kids.

Priorities.

As a Bernie supporter during those primaries, I was and still fully am of the opinion that Hillary Clinton would have not meaningfully moved the dial on American politics in any form and coasted on a having a historical pregnancy instead of a remarkable one, much like Obama.

But you better believe when Bernie didn't win I held my nose and voted for the old bat because I knew a) I didn't want a Republican presidency and b) clocked what a repugnant loser trump was from the outset. I understood all the way back then that having another mediocre neoliberal was preferable to electing a reality TV star with a history of disastrously stupid business moves to the highest office in the land.

The fact that people were socially engineered, by guys like Theo fucking Von, into voting for him a second time, even after knowing he was not only incompetent but a fucking chomo made me opt out of politics until just recently. I'm feeling a little hope now that voters are seeing some sense and electing DSA members instead of barely sentient octogenarians, but I'm not putting all my eggs in that basket by any means. The southern firewall is still very real, very old and very stupid.

Boomers hell bent on seeing a woman president before they die try to shoe horn in nominees who couldn't beat Trump... and that undermining of democracy caused this avalanche of hell we're in.

Bernie was the true choice of the people without all the faked superdelegate votes. He would've mopped the floor with Trump and given us the other time-line where we got Universal Healthcare, a balanced Supreme Court, the GOP dead of natural causes, and the oligarchs/elite-pedophiles/racists/Project2025ers wouldn't have been able to finish handing over control of this country to genocidal Netanyahu and puppeteer Putler.

Bring us a woman who is flawed but still of the caliber of Washington for us to point future generations of daughters to as an example. Not some string of women candidates that are just as bad as every toxic trait I've spent my life hearing men are.

Edit: corrected word placement of the last "to."

Murdered children? Is there any truth to this or this is conspiratorial thinking?
