6. They ALL Knew!

It was not just those two. The entire GOP knew exactly who DT was. Remember that meeting where several congress members were briefed on the Russian interference of 2016 and they looked completely gobsmacked at how bad it was. The GOP knew about DT past financial fuck ups, the allegations of sexual assault, rape.

The GOP knew full well just what a PO💩 DT was and they still gave him their full support. They knew DT was horribly unfit and unqualified for President but they didn’t care. The GOP wanted judges…and those judge (most deemed unfit by the ABA) cost America over 1 million+ citizens.

1 MILLION+

I will never forgive the GOP for what they have done.

Sickening - yet, fascinating insight photo into cult worship- see admiration,worship in Pence and the other just there for the loot and Donald's expression - well, that's priceless-look's like he just smelling the farts in the room.

yes, sometimes that happens with...people who are more ...mature..than others...

So, I use that word,...mature....instead of the ..."O" word that I really hate, and do not like.

9. When tRump* and Kushner* would fly back to NYC after a campaign "rally"...

...tRump* would often comment how it was so difficult to campaign and interfered with his life and blah, blah, blah.

It was Jared fucking Kushner that would whisper into tRump*s ears that it was OK and it would all work out and not to worry, and it will all be OK...

It was Jared fucking Kushner that kept the push on. Jared Kushner (and Russia) were pushing tRump* into the Presidency.

Jared had plans for the Presidency... and chief among those plans was to rescue his families FAILING real estate "empire" that Jared put into jeopardy by buying the 666 building, and according to all sources, paid far too much. Jared PLANNED on using the power of the Presidency for financial gain, which he did. He basically extorted Qatar into rescuing the 666 Building.

15. Pence, Pompeo and a few more actually think they will someday be President,

and there is a suggestion that half these shitheels have pocket pardons they get to wave when they are called into account.

But not Pence, and sorry, not sorry-he deserves the oblivion his future will be.

Republicans are not prevented from taking power. More corruption, more surveillance, less freedom. One thing the ‘good Germans’ all note in retrospect is how the Joy seemed to be sucked from life. Expect that here. Hell, we’re already a few steps down that path.

18. Which is why it's, perhaps, too bad they didn't hang Mike Pence.

Extreme & horrific, obviously, and I don't encourage or support violence, but him suffering the consequences of his own actions--he enabled the beast--well, few would have deserved more to do so. And, others have died to protect our democracy, so why not him?

Also, imagine how much more seriously the general public would be taking the insurrection. Call me crazy, but I think they might even have lost a few Trumpers on that.
