Just Had A Thought Trump Will Be Prosecuted By DC For This Violence Once Impeachment Over [View all]

Buh bye Donnie.

"Misdemeanor" didn't have the same meaning in the 18th century The Velveteen Ocelot Feb 2021 #13

Yeah, I know that. They arranged for impeachment to cover any bad behavior, not just criminality. LAS14 Feb 2021 #14
