(8,144 posts)via impeachment trial. Putting Trump center-stage again will excite their hopes that good overcomes evil in the end. Since there is little to no chance Senate can convict, he returns to Washington a conquering hero, proving that Dems, in the black hats, keep trying to destroy him, and by extension them, white hats pursuing global satanic pedos.
Wish he could stay de-platformed and any legal repercussions that might have teeth be played out
away from the new administration. In the meantime, it might have been possible that a fuller picture of Trumps involvement in Jan. 6 would emerge to increase chances to hold him accountable as in put away, not kept like a pacing tiger Dems walk yet again in front of his mind-controlled devotees. They had a window through which disenchantment was beginning to waft. They were questioning, sone pulling back the curtain. Wizard had shriveled slightly. But now his image gets a big boost as he is allowed to enter the fray, standing toe to toe with new admin, manipulating media, re-energizing all his MagaQ, White Supremacist base.
