Yeah, no shit. Words can't describe how furious I am about Jan. 6 and the utter lack of accountability for the powerful people responsible for it. Including the GOP bootlickers in power at the time and still to this day.
Whenever my rage starts to fade, I remind myself how things would have played out if it’d been Obama and his followers who’d attacked the Capitol.
Look at them trying to convince us there's rule of law. Don't worry guys, the system that isn't completely corrupt to its core WOULD have worked. Source: Trust me bro.
Ok, but he wasn't a president when he did the crime. Convict him.
Biden wasn't sworn in yet, Trump was still President.
Jack Smith better be getting him and his family the fuck out of the U.S. and to a country without an extradition treaty because their lives are worth nothing in America now.
Unfortunately, that doesn't leave him with a lot of great options.
I'm not saying it isn't correct, but the US having an extradition treaty with Cuba is a bit suspicious.
You can live pretty well in China. They call themselves expats when they live there.
With what he knows? They would interrogate the fuck out of him and keep him under constant surveillance.
Nah they'd hire him.
Y'all thinking anything is going to happen to Jack are going to be surprised when nothing happens to him and he writes his book and gets his TV show and just coasts into retirement in a gated community.
"It's a big club and you ain't in it." but Jack and Don both are.
Yeah, Trump would have to get pretty bored to go after Jack Smith... maybe -MAYBE- a Gaetz DOJ would have gone after him like a cat offering a dead mouse at Trump's front door, but I don't really see Trump world caring about this any longer. All the FNC talking heads have stopped, well, talking about Jack Smith.
Exactly, he served his purpose. He "prosecuted" Trump, he aired the crimes committed and purposely slow walked the investigation. Trump won a second term, Jack will now "fade into obscurity" with a book deal, tv show, and mansion.
Imagine believing that this racist system of violence created by literal slave masters is about justice.
Aw shucks, that’s a bummer. Good try though, fellas! You gave it your all and I’m sure you’ll gettem next time!

This is nonsense. He wouldn't have been convicted and the proof for that was that he wasn't convicted.
It was never going to happen. The timing made sure of it.
A convenient excuse.
My homework would have got an A+ if I had handed it in.
let the records show that i did in fact do my homework. to prove this, i will release it publicly to world. pay no mind to the fact that the deadline has already passed.
Don't wait so long that the criminal can run and win again, before justice gets served then...
...and would receive no punishement
What is the constitutional protection for sitting presidents? You mean that part in the constitution which says presidents are basically kings and they are above the law and they can do whatever they want? Oh yeah, that part. That part that totally exists and totally says that.
SCOTUS says this constitutional protections are there. We should totally trust SCOTUS. It’s not like SCOTUS is unbelievably corrupt, doing the bidding of billionaires, or trying to usher in a Conservative wet dream.
All this time and effort and the only person that came close to stopping this madness was Thomas Matthew Crooks.
Woulda coulda shoulda
Yeah okay sure. And I’d be the Archbishop of Canterbury if it weren’t for those pesky meddling kids too right
