And no one is going to do a damn thing about this because the US is not a nation of laws anymore.
Who cares??? Honestly im sick of hearing it. He’s clearly above the law.
The president has immunity while being in office, was the supreme court ruling right?
And if this doesn’t count under the immunity, he just replaces judges and claims he lost faith in the justice system and abolishes and restructures it, just as Hitler did. He already ignored several other judge rulings.
Start attacking his supporters instead. Bring them up on charges for being complicit in his crimes. He may have immunity, but his enablers don’t. Make everyone scared to keep supporting him until their only choice is to vote in favor of ousting him.
Or, Trump will just protect them all. Like he pardoned the Jan6 rioters. He already barred judges who went after friends of his.
Next Democrat president better go full dictator or they’re stupid
Last Democrat president did nothing to protect you from future abuses of presidential power.
You think there will be one? Seeing how things are going now, there’s barely a democracy left. I’m expecting elections like Russia had, at best. Trump is following the footsteps of Hitler. Literally. Tariffs, attacking journalists and judges, spreading hate towards minorities, using fake news as a weapon, replacing key positions with yes-men, deporting people to concentration camps, etc. You might hope for a Democrat as president, but I think that ship has sailed man.
Now, watch as literally nothing at all is done about it, just like his last blatant and obvious felony and just like his next one.
We suck.
Excuse me, are you a man in a shark suit?
I don’t see how that’s relevant, and if anything that is a very rude question of you to ask. I’d suggest you gather your couth and think before asking such inane and, frankly, very stupid and insulting questions, which my username has already answered had you bothered to read it, in the future.
Good day.
Edit: I apologize, I read that backwards. No, of course not, I’m just a regular human in my normal human skin keeping my sweet tasty meats contained inside my body, and I have regular non-serrated teeth that don’t grow back when I lose them attacking seals and such, just like the rest of you. Nothing to see here.
No it’s fine, the Internet doesn’t convey tone so you didn’t reslise I am merely a fascinated biologist. Thank you for explaining about your non serrated teeth that definitely don’t grow back Mr Man. Have a human day!
No thanks on the nationalist “we”. Cultspeak.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_religion
Frank first uses a singular personal pronoun (“I”), but then quickly corrects to the plural personal pronoun “we.” Why? Because when you’re leading a cult, you need to imply family, collectiveness, exclusivity at each moment. Frank’s consistently creates an “us versus them” scenario. Although it’s unclear who “they” are, that hardly matters to his followers. They are much too busy “looking harder” (at what?) “digging deeper” (to where?) and “mining that pure, unbridled potential (of what?)” - https://www.whatmakesgreatwriting.com/p/dont-worry-darling
We are a collective society, that’s an objective fact, dipshit, you don’t have the option to not be a part of a demographic, learn what context is and how to apply it.
May have? LOL!
So can we expect more finger wagging, indignant tweets and furrowed brows? Maybe a SLAM or two? No? Then suck it up, america!
This is just how our country is now.
Trump’s krypto nite?
5.56 or 7.62 probably.
Trump: seen
So he broke a law. And what’s anyone in the US going to do about it??
Crickets.
He’s not in prison for treason and espionage - it’s doubtful he’s going anywhere no matter how heinous a crime he commits.
He’s…a…fucking…criminal. A criminal is in charge of the law. AND the national piggy bank, but that for another time.
How many of you have criminals as friends? None. You know why? Because they’ll lie and steal from you just as fast as anyone else - that’s why. And that’s trumpski - a lying criminal con man. AND a traitor to the country that gave him everything he’s got.

Grow up. Most “crimes” are bullshit and most “criminals” are fine people.
Nobody wants to be friends with Trump because he’s a fascist who attacks people both legally and illegally, although there’s no conviction/punishment when the rich/privileged commit “crimes”.

I know you’re making a political point, but tbh, I thought Lemmy would have a better take on criminal justice
There are better takes but you have to search for them.
Equally petty, but I don’t associate crime with being a bad person.
Speeding is a crime. Drug use is a crime. Evading draconian copyright laws is a crime…
Totally agree. But I think depending on the type of speeding you do can make you a bad person.
I wish I could upvote this twice
Well Al Capone was brought down by the IRS, maybe this fucker will be put behind bars by the post office or something… Or maybe nothing will happen
Gov was after Capone though. Trump is the gov. And even though technically this isn’t true everyone either doesn’t care or isn’t brave enough to try to do anything
Just so you don’t have to read through the article to find out which law he broke this time: he used the presidential seal while he spoke at a private, for-profit event.
Oh, yeah, of EVERYTHING he’s done, this is the thing that will finally land him in prison.
I mean, al capone was brought down due to some tax issue. Sometimes they gotta get a really good grip on a small thread and just keep pulling
2 very good lawyers had Donald dead to rights on election fraud and stealing government documents, and they both gave up when they realized the law doesn’t apply to him. There is no legal thread to keep a grip on that will ever make any difference.
Nobody seemed to care when the supreme court gave us kings again. This is what it looks like.
al capone was brought down due to some tax issue.
…and a government organization with the will to do what’s right and pursue justice. Do you expect to see that from the people Republicans and Trump put in place??
Yah that’s the one that will do him in and crumble his empire. Surely.
As long as the Department of Justice continues to work exclusively at the behest of Trump, you should expect no actual justice. 86 Pam Bondi, 86 Trump. 86 the Republican party for abdicating their oaths.
SPOILER ALERT!
Nothing will happen.
Ohhh no! What the USA justice will do about this? Nothing.
Again, ping me if something happens.
