Trump tries to claim immunity in new post, but doesn't seem to realize what he's advocating for - Glenn Kirschner



No one can accuse Donald Trump of being a strategic thinker. In a new post, he asserts that he should be given immunity against prosecution for any and all crimes he committed to try to steal the 2020 election BECAUSE he was "looking for voter fraud." Trump seems entirely unaware of the natural consequences of the position he's pushing. - Glenn Kirschner - 01/08/2024.

Because he's gotten away with his criminal behavior for so long, he actually believes he's "above the law." I'm always grateful for Glenn's clear explanations.

I try to pass it on, but who knows if they decide to actually watch or hit up Ted nugent's page for relationship advice.

I had a call from my cousin in Colorado the other night and we did discuss politics. She's extremely unhappy with the fact that Boebert is now attempting to run in her district! She even said she's considering applying for dual citizenship since her husband's grandfather came from Ireland, not for herself, but for her two young girls - if things in this country get worse (TFG).
