Trump was probably happy when the Speaker in Georgia died. Little did he know.

Trump probably thought that's one person I don't have to worry about testifying in front of a grand jury. Little did he know the Speaker in Georgia recorded their conversation. More smoking gun evidence for the Georgia grand jury. Dumb fuck Trumps luck is running out.

There are now at least two recorded phone calls of Trump trying to force people to overturn the election in Georgia.

Trump is fucking going down.

I had the exact same feeling with the "Grab'm by the pussy" recording. It was over for sure! I knew it.
I have no hope of seeing justice now and just hope Biden wins in 2024.

These recordings are about trying to overthrow the country. Do you any idea how damning this evidence is? People will use any ridicules excuse to try and prove, nothing is going to happen. there will be no justice.

But after about 2 1/2 years of NO INDICTMENTS, even with such 'damning evidence' - I can easily understand people's suspicions and disappointments, if not downright anger and disgust. It's time to get something done......

… in trying to do something constructive he might accomplish something meaningful. Instead he spends his energy on cheating, lying and stealing. It’s pathetic.

I hope it burns him relentlessly that he failed at his stupid coup. May the rest of his days be filled with anger, rage and disappointments as his ass is held to account.

The evidence against Trump is overwhelming and that's just what the public knows.There is a lot we don't know yet. The jurors are telling us what is coming, I quote, It's going to be Massive.

with all of the power, support, and backing that tRump had, just imagine IF he had tried to do something positive, you know, like something that would be for the betterment of the WHOLE country, not just his rich cronies and political weasals.
Indeed, it truly was a lost and wasted opportunity.

But then again, it's easier to imagine leprechauns delivering gold than the idea of tRump doing something 'good.'

This fucking Jerk off has always gotten away with shit, I'm still hopeful that he will eventually get his comeuppance before he kicks the bucket. He really does need to be prosecuted and convicted of the serious shit that he's been engaged in even if he never does serve any time in jail. The reason that's so important is that the next asshole that comes along that tries this shit, may think twice.

But he finally got GOT. On tax evasion. Hell, WHATEVER works!

That’s what keeps my hopes alive.

That and the old proverb “nothing lasts forever.” NOTHING, donald. Not even you.

David Ralston, the speaker of the Georgia House of Representatives, died Wednesday following an extended illness.

His death was announced by spokesperson Kaleb McMichen in a news release. Ralston was 68-years-old.

Ralston, who has served in the position since 2010, recently announced he would not seek another term as speaker, citing health challenges. Friends said Ralston was stricken with COVID-19 and subsequently hospitalized.

to even ask someone to mess with an election

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-trump-legal-explainer-idUSKBN2992C9

Georgia has a state law against “criminal solicitation to commit election fraud.” That law makes it illegal for a person to intentionally solicit, request, command or otherwise attempt to cause another person to engage in election fraud.


The tapes of the three calls are jaw-dropping evidence Trump broke this law and very difficult to refute.

Nah. Remind the tooth fairy, eh?

In the tech sector I recall that fusion power was only 10 yrs away. In 1950, then 1960, then 1970, surely in 1980, 10 yrs away in 1990, 2000, 2010, for sure in 2020...

Trump's indictments are always "10 years away". I am old and my memory will not last.
