      I genuinely feel like I’m going insane when the Dems haven’t made a “we’ll impeach Trump if elected” promise. Not that I’d believe them, but it seems like that should be a talking point.

        He’s not the target any more because it’s been proven that he is completely immune politically and legally. They should do what they never did which is to go after all the co-conspirators first starting with the lowest then keep flipping them until you have everyone. If you eventually get the Don before the clock runs out, that’s a bonus.

        Might be a strategy to capture some disgruntled MAGA folks, and not make them rally for their führer

    He should be imprisoned for many reasons, but the cutting off Starshield/Starlink to Ukraine to keep its defensive drones from intercepting Russian jet drones should see him in front of a firing squad.

    Just win the damn elections first and worry about that after. This is basic football, catch the ball first, THEN run. Planning before execution leads to incomplete passes, or interceptions.

      But at least they have to tell the voters roughly what they want to do so the voters know what they are actually voting for. So ‘just win the damn elections’ should include some indication of their priorities.

        It’s a trap though. Lots of people criticize candidates for being only anti-Whatever and not caring about local citizens or having a plan for local issues.

        Although throwing MAGA in jail is the most important thing to help local citizens and issues, IMO.

        Absolutely, on policy that’s important. But announcing investigations before your capable of doing so is likely to just make him throw in another $300 million to keep that from happening.

      I mean…you should also have a plan on what to do when you have the ball, right? Or is every time you catch a football, it’s your first time thinking about what you’re gonna do next?

      “Hey guys, I’m not going to tell you what I plan to do with power once I get it because Shartgargle says it’s the best option. Vote for me, though.”

      It’s called having a platform. Saying what you’re gunna do if you win is the whole point of campaigning.

          It is, though. A platform at it’s core is a signal of your values and a general set of promises. You born yesterday or something?

    Bullshit. They’ll capitulate as they always do. Their only use is to unseat the fascist. Once that is done. We can work to unseat them, and then put someone in the Shite House that will actually do the work.

    Revoke his citizenship, nationalize his shit, throw him in prison for a while, and then deport his ass.

    If I recall correctly, he came tp the US as an alien and worked illegally originally. Sounds like a reason for stripping citizenship and deportation.

    High on optimism I see. You forget the only reason musk is back in the loop (along with the rest of the billionaire barons) is to rig the midterm results. Dems aren’t getting elected.

      If you have 7 people on a bus, 3 vote to drive off a cliff, 2 vote not to drive over a cliff, and 2 don’t vote… You’re going off a cliff.

    It’s wild that this is a political matter at all. The judicial system should not depend on what party is in charge. Still can’t fully comprehend the level of institutionalized corruption

    Investigate?

    Screw that.

    Just tax the MF into oblivion, along with the rest of the rich scumbags pillaging the government and the country.

    There are FAR more people that did damage that were actually in charge and supposed to be responsible to and beholden to the citizens of this country. Judges, elected officials, LEOs, military officers. Investigate and bury them.
