History will convict Trump but unfortunately 76 million voters did not. They either celebrated or ignored his crimes. America’s moral standing is no more. Nonetheless, I am very grateful for your courage and leadership. Hope the Last Republican finds a distributor soon. I really want to watch it.

My gut tells me that Republicans are also going to rise up against him and his gang. I hear people say that they made a hugh mistake. Since Musk has taken over, Trump will get fed up with him shortly.

Perhaps Republican voters may wake up. But they must vote out other Republican elected officials 1 by 1 to give us even a fighting chance. 2017-2019 class of republicans were bad enough and they are infinitely more corrupt, and authoritarian leaning if not outright cheerleading.

the diehards will remain transfixed -- their egos are so tied into it -- but there were a few demographics who were not die hard who voted for Trump or stayed home we can target -- and then there were those who did not vote for Harris as a protest over Gaza -- they will see DJT show no interest in Gaza and offer no help rebuilding -- unless of course to convert it into a resort and golf course he owns

So much for allowing the American people to judge him at the ballot box. This was no mis-carriage of justice, it was a train wreck of justice. I have never believed in the death penalty for convicted felons because it is not really justice. It is vengeance carried out by the state using flawed procedures. Those same flawed procedures let a convicted felon walk.

His Majesty may believe our moral standing will soar after he wages war on the Native folks in Greenland before moving on to the Panamanians. After Putin orders him to take out Canada in order to do away with the joint operation with our northern neighbor that protects us from over-the-top missile strikes, he might pause and end up declaring the maple leaf to have been the U.S. national carbon-ingestor all along, proving that there is no longer a need to ever again bother dealing with the climate change "Hoax". He will then pardon Mexico if our southern neighbor agrees that the Gulf of America is a better name and sweetens the deal by encouraging him to rename the Gulf of California as the greatest water hazard known by golfers from Saudi Arabia to Mar-El-Lago.

We must not ever relent in hammering this message home. We must also hammer Merrick Garland to release the special counsel report before 01/20/2025. Write to your Senators and Representatives and ask them to pressure the AG's office. We only have 11 days to protect the record. Thank you for your patriotic work, Mr. Kinzinger.

yes! I have little hope of that happening- Smith has to respond to Appeals Court =- then trump appeals etc. trump will go all the way up to SCOTUS. We don't have much time left

47-elect has effectively run out the clock of justice making the rule of law in this country a constitutional mockery. If you have power, money and influence, you *are* above the law. It is a page out of Roy Cohn’s playbook, who taught 47-elect how to effectively threaten, deny, lie, cheat, bribe, and intimidate his way to power.

I cannot believe that judge (loose) cannon can get away with the blatant bias she so obviously has towards the orange (although lately he’s looking paler than he used to: changed makeup artist I guess) man-baby. Someone higher up in the court system needs to clip her wings and put a stop to her crookedness. The Jack Smith reports need to be made public before inauguration.

Cannon is either really stupid or simply getting in line for the "promotion" to SCOTUS. The level of bias and incompetence she has shown is actually embarrassing. I assume Thomas and Alito ( + wives) are getting ready to head off into the sunset together on some fancy plane donated by some rich person to go to some fancy resort paid for by some other grifter ..... so there should be spots to fill .....

Ms. Cannon probably can suck a golf ball through a garden hose.

Anyway, Thomas and Alito will not quit…the three liberals will go into “protective custody” or be “victims of a mugging gone bad.” So will Roberts.

Remember "Stop The Steal", the slogan used by election deniers everywhere?

I suggest that we, the sane ones, adopt the slogan "Stop The Blame"!

EVERY DAY I hear tump, his supporters and Republicans BLAMING the Democrats, Biden, Immigrants, Judges (except Cannon), Jack Smith, the 'Deep State' and everyone EXCEPT themselves for various things.

Today, trump blamed Gavin Newsom for the wildfires in Los Angeles.

I am so sick of maga's Blame Game! I think we should shout "STOP THE BLAME" from everywhere across this country!

"STOP THE BLAME"!

no way to stop it -- along with obstruction and dereliction of duty that is all they do -- and they literally overrode their oath to protect the Constitution and serve their constituents to instead "follow Trump" which was their "plan" during the 2020 campaign -- to so blatantly ask to be voted for with no plan other than to "follow Trump -- expect nothing and you will not be disappointed -- we need to stop being disappointed -- it will wear us out

EXACTLY why i suggest our slogan is "STOP THE BLAME"! To which I add a response when they continue their blame game. It is "BLAH, BLAH BLAH..." Which stands for Blame, Lies And Hate. Only when we consistently publicly respond to their BS can we start to effect changes in their behavior.

Adam I love you man…but history convicting Trump? What, like history has convicted those that committed genocide on the native Americans? And what good did that do all the people that died, lost their lands and culture? We’re talking about a felon and adjudicated sex offender who was just elected President! Trump has gotten away with everything so far and it seems he’ll continue to do just that. All this “Trump is gonna get it ONE DAY” has started to ring so hollow - especially since we live in a country that allows a non-qualified bimbo like Eileen Cannon to push around the Attorney General. Why is there nothing we can do NOW? Why is the opposition so weak and feckless? THESE are the actions and answers I want - not some “historical” condemnation of Trump after I’m dead and gone

The orange emperor has no clothes. The Press is well aware. What they haven't acknowledged yet is how child-like Donnie is now. An ignorant, spoiled, bratty child.

Donnie and Elon show their childishness daily. What adult would say "go fuck yourself in the face"?

What adult would scream, in all caps, "GIMME CANADA AND GREENLAND AND PANAMA"?

The grownups must say, "No little Donnie. Put down the cap gun. You are not allowed to threaten and harm our neighbors."

I fear that is what it will be. He already got the federal cases dropped. the only thing we have left is Smith's report of what evidence he has- That will be in the record but who knows what will happen to it when trump's people are in charge? If we don't see it b4 Jan 20th- we will never see it and it may be altered.

And every time they (trump,, vance, trumplicans or maga supporters) blame someone or something else say "Stop The Blame". If they continue blaming say Blah, Blah, Blah! (Blame, Lies And Hate). There is nothing distasteful about either response. If this is done consistently with everyone that plays their offensive game (including your maga "friends"), it will eventually change their behavior for the better even if it still isn't perfect. The only way to effect change is to do something.

If only Trump cared about what history will say about him! Not that there's anything he could do about it at this point in his wretched life. The values that we at least make a strong attempt to live by are meaningless to him. I will never understand why so many people support him.

Heather Cox Richardson (I imagine most of you are already a fan), and although so many people consider him ‘“far left”, Robert Reich. He is a man for the people, the working people, Middle America. He has been warning about being where we are now for over 30 years. He was Clinton’s Secretary of Labor and even pissed off his own Democratic colleagues back then with his man of the people thing.

Whatever your answers are, remember that this is what the name "trump" means to you Today! History can do no better!

Trump was impeached twice and indicted for multiple crimes seemingly more serious than the ones he was convicted of. Although this crime might have made the difference in his ever gaining the White House, many people will consider it a relatively minor white collar crime.

Do you think he will ever be held accountable for stealing US top secret documents? Will the American people ever get to know the exact nature of these crimes and the evidence that was compiled? This would seem like a far more important thing for the history books.
