    I don't think Biden is acting to deescalate at the moment.

    Hard words said.

    More both sides bingo

    Heard on the radio today that he’s been banned indefinitely by both Twitter and FB. Didn’t hear any details as was on in the background. Also may have just not heard right to be fair.

    I get the strong impression from all the signals from Pence and the Cabinet, Trump in the last 28 hours, that the cabinet has had him detained.

    Good luck with that. Trump will want another shot at it in 2024 if he is still around !

    Hawley stood up for the base (so to speak) plus wouldn't be as toxic to the mainstream as Trump (relatively speaking).

    Don Jr is a good hype man for his dad but he has no balls, Eric is...Eric and Ivanka is both a woman and Jewish (not likely to go down well with the tiki torch brigade).

    Law and Order President.


    ****ing low life criminal.

    If he was to do that, every mention of trump from that day so should be preceded by “admitted criminal Donald Trump”


  • Registered Users Posts: 336 ✭✭What.Now


    They need to do something to keep him occupied for two weeks. They should play his own game and charge Ivanka and Jr for incitement to hatred and make up some treason **** and lay it on him.

    Just throw crap at him every day to do with his family, keep it away from him until after he leaves which will keep him occupied and those around him occupied and moves him further from looking at what chaos he can do.

    They need to drive him into a 'controlled' madness. It's time to own the agenda.

    He has been slated all around for his part in this.

    If you think people are going to let Hawley away with it then you're deluded, in my opinion.

    Trumpists vote for Trump, nobody else. Every election where Trump is not on the ballot, Republican turnout plummets regardless of his endorsements.

    Biden called the ex US military woman that died a domestic terrorist. So much for bringing people together and healing divisions

    She stormed Capitol Hill as part of a coup to overturn a democratic election.

    That is the definition of a domestic terrorist.

    But hey, 'both sides'...


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,802 ✭✭✭✭suicide_circus


    What happened at the Capitol was the worst thing to happen in the sh1t soup that was the Trump presidency - an assault on an already fragile democracy.

    What is vital now is that this is a watershed and people forgo their base instinct for retribution.

    America is a powder keg and cool heads must prevail.

    My fear is this;

    1. Trump was a symptom of the broken American system - Joe Biden is that system - 50 years worth.

    2. Big Tech versus the president was a circus - Big Tech as a supporter of the president is a much more scary prospect.

    What would you call an insurgent violently breaking into breaking into Capitol Hill?

    4 years is a long time in politics.

    And i'll hold out on seeing any incriminations of Hawley; I see very little if any blowback on him for this. Sure look at the interviews of the people protesting, they think they are in the right. And there are a lot of people in that mindset.

    He can't pardon himself because of a previous legal ruling that a judge can not sit in judgement of their own actions, or so I have read.

    It is assumed by some that he cant self-pardon because of that judgement. That is only an assumption and has not been tested in court. I'm not sure the dems have the stomach to take it to the supreme court to test it.

    If by 'retribution' you mean holding the white terrorists and those politicians and civilians that conspired to create the decision then I strongly disagree.

    'Going high' is what got us in this mess from the day Trump started to run. The lack of accountability is how things escalated to the point of yesterday.

    What happened in Washington DC yesterday evening - as farcical and comical as it might have looked at times - was a very serious threat to the fundamental democratic institutions the USA is built upon.

    ...
    The Republican Party will be in meltdown, and rightly so. Getting into bed with Trump and his acolytes will be the biggest error of judgement they ever made.

    The republican party has been a sick puppy for quite a while and the influence of the like of those bast***s the Kochs and indeed Murdoch.
    The sooner the ones still living kick the bucket the better for mankind.

    Ah jaysus they are as bad at wrecking places as they are at picking politicians.
    Screens all on desks, printer where it should be, lamps in place and working.
    Bookshelves not touched.
    Hell the coat stand is still in place.

    FFS no fires, no painted walls, no smashed desks, no excrement on the walls and doors.

    Although if I was Pelosi I would look for her office to be deep cleaned.

    ****ing low life criminal.

    Trump can try pardon himself, he could get Pence to do it if he was impeached, but it won't save him when some if some of the DAs he had sacked go back into their jobs, especially in New York where they can build cases against him and his spawn.

    They had cases against the kids before, but they kicked them to touch.
    No coincidence the DA had gotten a political contribution, although he handed it back when it became public who had given it to him.

    The Trumps have amassed so many enemies and have been so toxic and insulting to a lot of top Republicans that so many will want revenge and to see the family destroyed and out of politics.

    Also the Dept of Justice staff and FBI staff all saw how their leaders were treated and what they got landed with by Trump.

    I am not allowed discuss …

    terrorism
    /ˈtɛrərɪzəm/
    Learn to pronounce
    noun
    the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.
    "the fight against terrorism"

    I mean, he's not wrong.

    I think you are completely downplaying what has happened here.

    If Hawley is in the 2024 ticket, then expect the Democrats to mobilise their base, and remind the independents of what Hawley did. This is never going away for him.

    Also, and I'll say it again, Trumpists vote for Trump. The 2018 mid-terms and the Georgia Senate runoffs show exactly what happens when Trump is not on the ballot.

    White terrorists....making things about race is not helpful. We need to move back to de-racialising public discourse. I am much more aware of race now than i was in say 2001 and that's sad. We've gone backwards. When I say "retribution" i don't mean holding criminals to account, I mean seeking to further alienate and punish people of a different political stripe and/or cultural & socioeconomic circumstances.
