Sadly I do not yet believe HE will be convicted. 17 is just a few too many. BUT...

But We still have Our Megaphones:

twitter, MSNBC, CNN sometimes, TLP, MeidasTouch, backyard fences, coffee shops, family gatherings, Facebook, email, postal mail, water coolers, waiting rooms, Interstate Bridges, billboards, church get togethers, coffee groups, living room tea get togethers, public parks, sporting events, vaccine lines, online blogs and forums, DU, car bumpers, SNL, Late Night Talk Hosts, Congressional sessions, The White House Press office, Business meetings and conventions, advocacy group meetings, college lectures, public lectures, beaches, airplanes, Parkland teen groups, Youth get out the vote groups, immigrants fighting for justice, BLM, racial justice protests, Senior groups, Senior centers, First Nation groups, queer rights groups, grocery stores, laundromat bulletin boards, telephone poles, graffiti...

We need to keep the pressure on the seditious Orange Asshole, keep laughing at him nonstop, keep embarrassing him, keep laughing at him, never let a Big Lie or Little lie come out of his anus-mouth unchallenged.

We The People will have to do the heavy lifting once again. As usual. But that is ok, we've done it for 240+ years.

Maybe we CAN get those 17 votes. Maybe the horse will sing.

All the evidence will be aired, from cell phone info, video material, and witness testimony if there are any..I would like to see Gosar, Biggs, Hawley, Boebert, Greene, subpoenas. Others as evidence is gathered.

The timing of the trial should allow the managers enough time to paint a vivid picture of exactly what happened..a roadmap to sedition, if you will..the trial of the century...

Now let the bastards turn from the evidence, and vote against conviction ..on record..ain't gonna be pretty...

There’s nothing he likes more than being talked about, whether it’s good or bad.
I know we have to deal with him for the duration of the Senate trial, but after that, he should cease to exist as an entity who occupies our attention for even a moment. He’s nobody, we don’t remember his name.

Continuing to speak of him will only cause his supporters to rush to his defense, and bolster his sense of self-importance. And he will have power over you for as long as you continue to obsess over him. Just erase him, like a bad dream that you’ve now forgotten in the light of day.

Quoth the raven, “Nevermore.”
