Man, all of those others combined just barely add up to Trump’s total alone.
Don’t forget that he was under indictment for dozens more when he cheated his way back into the presidency.
Those charges are waiting for him when he leaves office, so he’s never going to leave office voluntarily.
Yoink.
On Friday, the president suggested that the crime crackdown was requested by “the people in Chicago,” who he insisted “are screaming for us to come.”
Trump then claimed these citizens of Chicago who are clamoring for military intervention in their city “are wearing red hats, just like this one. But they are wearing red hats. African American ladies, beautiful ladies are saying, ‘Please, President Trump, come to Chicago, please.’”
Dementia Donnie at it again.
Nah, he’s just a virtuosic liar.
ladies are saying, ‘Please, President Trump, come to Chicago, please.’”
It’s amazing how every person he talks to has the same idiotic speech pattern.
What, no tears in their eyes? He’s stopped even trying.
He has an extremely stunted fantasy world.
I will never cease hurting my brain that people listen to him speak and don’t instantly realize everything that comes out of his mouth is a lie even if it’s factual

I say it all the time
The idiot is not the person uttering nonsense
The idiots are the crowd of people that keep listening to it all and accepting it as normal.
And don’t forget the corporate media that have spent a decade normalising this shit.
Both. Definitely both.
There’s a handful of black folks in Chicago that comprise a group called “Chicago Flips Red”, who have showed up to events promoting MAGA and decrying the Democratic Machine politics in the city. They are a tiny contingent that is not reflective of the sentiment of the vast majority, but I’m sure Trump will trot them out to exalt him.
I remember the black guys holding obama with a hitler mustache signs in public places. Never could decide if they were being paid or crazy or a little of both.
Cool story. Where are the unredacted Epstein files?
Going to need to start adding the adjective “complete”
Where are those “well regulated militias” when you need them?
Busy telling people who mix up clips and magazines that their opinions on gun control are invalid.
Invading our capital. The state’s national guards are the militias.
No, they aren’t. They are a branch of the Federal military. Each State government is supposed to maintain its own “well regulated militia”, in case of Federal overreach. That’s what the 2nd amendment calls for…and it’s clearly needed now.
Each State government is supposed to maintain its own “well regulated militia”, in case of Federal overreach.
That’s why each state has its own branch of the National Guard. And there was essentially no discussion when the Constitution was being written about the use of state militias to deter federal overreach. More was about putting down slave rebellions and committing genocide against Native Americans.
The Second Amendment states: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed”.
Until recently, this was always understood to mean that each State had the right to maintain its own militia. It was included in the Constitution as a response to the practice of the British Army occupying State land during disputes between local governments and the Crown.
The first 5 amendments were all written in direct opposition to the Intolerable Acts of 1774. The State Representatives at the time, wanted guarantees written into the Constitution, that such infringements on their right to self-determination could not be repeated by the Federal Government they were about to join.
They are a branch of the Federal military
No they aren’t. You’re thinking of the Reserves. The national guard can be activated by the federal government, but they are run by the state. Hell even the oath you take is to the governor of the state instead of the president.
If they can be “federalized” by the President…then they do not truly serve the State. He can simply overrule that authority during an emergency. And it’s pretty obvious at this point, he is perfectly willing to create an emergency in order to do just that.
State militias are something else. They serve the State, alone.
Something like 20 states still do… (and even more have them but they’re inactive)

Let’s make Daley Plaza the new Dealey Plaza.
Those girls in Chicago are one thing. But they ain’t nothing compared to those girls down in San Antonio.
Come for the tacos, stay for the Tortas.
