Who needs a reason? That's for the judge to make up. Drumpf is just there to throw the toys out of his pram.

What do you mean?

Impeachment is just a natural thing that happens to every politician, usually about twice a term. Just ask Trump.

Stink lines?! I'm with Trump! Lock her up!

[–] [email protected] 22 points 5 days ago

She said his crowds were small, but he has the biggest crowds, beautiful crowds. She's bigly mean.

Actions? Just being black is enough. Ask the Central Park Five.

I bet it is Hunter Biden's laptop again.

[–] wjrii 11 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Apparently, for being bad at border stuff? The fact that almost half the country (and an inconveniently important half, given the god-damn electoral college) thinks this asshole is the best option to lead the country is truly depressing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Less than 1/3 of the country, closer to 25% now and declining. Don't give them credit in numbers. People just need to get out and vote.

[–] Treczoks 5 points 5 days ago

I don't believe he thinks he needs a reason for that.

[–] Valmond 4 points 5 days ago

Ol' projection at play as usual.

[–] cultsuperstar 43 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Impeached and prosecuted for what? Or is this just him throwing out words that trigger his cult?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 days ago

For being mean to him? He's a kid throwing around words he heard but doesn't understand. It means doing something bad to people, and that's enough for him. More worrying is the second point - it might be enough for his cult too. I fear things are going to get ugly.

Immigration

Also noted in the article

A recent ABC News/Ipsos poll found that 70% viewed immigration at the southern border as an "important" issue for them, and Trump led Harris by 10 points on who voters thought was best suited to handle it

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Immigration

Which makes zero sense. What authority does anyone think she has in making any decisions about immigration policy? He's the one that convinced his allies in congress to tank the border security bill that had bipartisan support, in order to intentionally create a "crisis".

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

It’s by design

He even argued that he should be elected because he would make sure his opponent can’t pass anything

[–] [email protected] 88 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Really toning down that rhetoric. /s

[–] [email protected] 38 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Right? After he got shot at, he went on some spiel about how the rhetoric needs to be reigned in because the democrats saying he’s a threat to democracy is inciting violence. As usual, whatever suits Trump in the moment is the way forward!

[–] III 12 points 5 days ago

Barely a spiel. He put that "dangerous democrat rhetoric" crap between him lying to villainize Harris and lying to villainize migrants. He barely paused to breath switching back and forth from that completely disingenuous talking point.

[–] [email protected] 85 points 5 days ago (1 children)

so getting impeached is a bad thing?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

When it's done to bad people, sure. When done to him it obviously wasn't a bad thing because it was rigged and unfair and all that, because obviously he couldn't do any wrong.

(That's a sarcastic rendering of what I believe to be his logic)

“Lock her up” Part two— fascist boogaloo

This moron is nothing if not predictable

[–] [email protected] 21 points 5 days ago

He did this with Biden too.

[–] Botzo 54 points 5 days ago

Trump needs to be sentenced.

[–] [email protected] 58 points 5 days ago (3 children)

How people can support this prick, is beyond me..🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Chronic low level lead poisoning durring their formative years.

[–] stoly 12 points 5 days ago

Entitlement and never having to learn to do anything useful other than show up.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 days ago

45% of voters have dementia? That won't be good for anyone.

[–] Soggy 2 points 4 days ago
[–] [email protected] 25 points 5 days ago

He's just projecting again

[–] Doomsider 34 points 5 days ago

His campaign should continue highlight how much we were lied to about Biden's mental health. It is hilarious to hear them beat that drum when they are not even running against Biden anymore and Trump is the only deranged old man running now.

[–] graycube 31 points 5 days ago

He's feeding the echo chamber with hopes it will drive his supporters to a voting frenzy. If he can't get them to the polls, he will lose. His goal now is only to stir and agitate and excite his base.

"Man yells at clouds, attracts audience," more at 10.

[–] vanontom 2 points 5 days ago

All I hear in this instance is, "I'm still ultra butthurt about the impeachments!" Which explains GOP reps' desperate and embarrassing "inquiries" into anything that oozes out of his mouth. They're so unbelievably pathetic.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I would like you taken out and flogged but we don't always get what we want.

[–] FuglyDuck 6 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I don’t want to see him flogged at all.

To be clear….. I would enjoy him getting flogged. But I don’t want to see that. Ewww.

Guy with spoiled mayonnaise leaking out of his ears talking about someone else being mentally disabled is fucking hilarious.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 days ago

Just because you hear/say the word so much it loses all meaning doesn't mean it has actually lost all meaning

[–] aesthelete 6 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

He always grips onto and lurches over the lectern as if he'd fall over if it weren't there.

[–] Resol 3 points 5 days ago

Oh democracy, what have you become?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

I've NEVER heard him say this! She must be doing some SERIOUSLY ILLEGAL things!
