to all the wannabe criminals out there. That's why they are scared shitless: if "they" can go after Trump the Untouchable, your mythical God Emperor, "they" can certainly nail YOUR ignorant sorry asses.

If they CANNOT come after Trump, they CANNOT come after me?

If Trump is untouchable, I am too?



You wish, MAGAts.

“Every time I do something illegal, they come after me!”

It’s like a pickpocket complaining, “every time I take someone’s wallet, I’m charged with bring a thief!”

former guy has been criming for half a century without personal criminal consequence (that part is a fucking stain on this country, albeit a very well known and unsurprising one). So yeah, MAGAts, it could AND SHOULD happen to you too, if you've done what he's done. If you want to express your solidarity with TFG by confessing crimes, go right ahead.

If they can go after Trump but those wheels of justice turned too slowly for our election cycles and he wins by cheating and then he'll come after US.

Yep. That's where I'm at right now. If we can't nail this guy and his rogue's den of co-defendants, they'll do all the things to our politicians - for nothing - that we're doing to them....for actual transgressions.
