Has there been any video of trump's gloating about the acquittal?

Last edited Sun Feb 14, 2021, 08:42 PM - Edit history (1)

I haven't watched TV since the verdict, but I haven't seen anything posted here. Does that mean that there isn't any?

If that's right (and I sure hope it is), I think it's great that MSM has cut him off, as has mainstream social media. He cannot succeed without this.

And, to keep banging the drum of my earlier posts, this is why we need an amendment to Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. This one provision gives online messaging/social media companies the ability to rapidly disseminate lies. Until the lies become the truth. And this is a critical path that fascists and dictators the world over are using to gain/retain power.

I've seen his printed statement online about the verdict, but that's it. Again, I confess that I haven't been monitoring things too closely after the verdict.

If this situation maintains, it's a clear sign to me that trump is finished. I see no outpouring of sympathy for this monster, which is a further good sign.

If that's the best the monster can do, he is toast. Broadcast video is not covering him, and neither can he get his "message" out via Twitter, Facebook etc.

types at Mar-a-Lago just anxiously and eagerly awaiting for it. They are getting tremors being without their Trump fix for nearly a month.

That seems to me to be a conscious decision by the media.

That's a relief: I cannot stand to look at the monster or to hear hear his bratty, whiny voice. I really cannot.
