Weaponized GOP voters.
Please ask why cluster munitions aren't used to explode mine fields? Seems like a no-brainer to me.
I didn't mention his financial crimes, from taxes to business practices to conning his supporters, because the NY AG has brought suit against him. Though, he has children who smell pretty smokey as board members of trump org, I am concerned about crimes against the U.S. during his time in the Whitehouse, e.g., bribery through his Trump hotels, golf courses, Kushner and his two billion line of credit, or whatever, from the Saudis, pay for pardons, etc. Not to mention his criminal associates in the Whitehouse not yet charged with crimes.
Bereft of truth, he argues that Trump wouldn't be charged but for Trump being trump, not an average person! Who of us would not be arrested and charged immediately if the FBI found dozens of boxes of stolen government documents in our home?!? The average person leading a coup, failed or not, would be held in jail pending trial because they're a continuous threat. Trump would face life in prison if he were an average citizen!
It's painful to watch the current negotiations .... First Republicans get Democrats to agree to increasing the debt... 3 times! Now Republicans are squeezing Democrats for concessions before Democrats pay the debts... are Republicans wrong to treat Democrats as doormats?
