They haven't got a conservative or Conservative bone in their body.

The Trump circus is no longer about politics , it's a cult.

Trump is indeed a cu*t leader.

Heard a great word on talkback tonight on the way home from the lass's place...

Bloviate: To talk at length, usually about one's self, in an inflated and empty way.

This is Trump to a tee.

The joint is a basket case.

Will never happen but the idea of the criminal spending a month in gaol is a magnificent dream.

Apparently* the charge of obstruction alone draws a sentence of 20 years.

Nice. He is indeed the apotheosis of gasconading cockalorums, a modern Munchausen, and a mendacious obfuscating qunt.

'Bloviate' might be a real enrichment of the language by the SBM in all the ways that 'flog' 'snowflake', 'sheeple' and 'oimentitedomyapiyon' aren"t.

4th Indictment today against Trump. And it's damning. It lists 161 criminal acts!!!!

And it's in Georgia. So even if the orange fool somehow lands the Republican nomination then miraculously wins (shirley America is not that stoopid) the race to the White House, he can't pardon himself.

The loudmouthed blowhard is reaping what he sows. He foolishly and recklessly thought he could say whatever he wanted in public and bully his way out of any fix he found himself in.

Guess what, you can't. Sucked in, you bloated, arrogant, ignorant fraud.

TRUMP.IS.GOING.TO.JAIL.


And so are those co-conspirators like Rudi, Sidney, Meadows etc, etc, etc.

At what point does Conservative America wake up to itself and distance itself from the orange buffoon???

USA Democracy >>>>>>> Farking Trump.

When it’s too late and he’s dismantled democracy and is locking up anyone who disagrees with him, even those formerly on the same side?

It’s crazy that religious conservatives think he speaks for them, given his personal life is about as far from that as is possible to get.

Trump doesn't believe in the Bible or God. He only believes in himself.

And that's beginning to waiver.

I have faith that the American Justice system will prevail and Trump and his cronies will be held fully accountable for their crimes.

I’m sure the religious right in the US know that deep down, but also know that Trumpism is an enabler for their cause in terms of anti-abortion, anti-“woke” etc. with popular appeal which they couldn’t get from a charisma-free De Santis or Pence or whoever.

Aye, beams. A bullshit leader for a bullshit theory of life, the universe and everything.

Georgia DA treating the Trump cabal like the Mafia.

I see Trump was bloviating again after his mug shot - continuing to loudly claim the election was rigged and stolen. Will he never learn??

Given he’s 77, it’s very unlikely.

Only way he doesn’t get back in the White House is if the Yank public realise that they’ll never have another meaningful vote if they re-elect him. It will be carnage, a four-year revenge tour and dismantling of any constitutional controls that would give the Democrats a chance of winning. Either abolishing term limits or waving in a hand-picked successor (son or daughter?) Leaving Europe/NATO at Putin’s mercy, etc…

Section 3 of the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution may say otherwise.

It disqualifies an individual from serving as a state or federal official if that person has "engaged in insurrection or rebellion against" the United States.

The Georgia case is therefore pivotal in Trump's chances. If he loses this case then he is automatically disqualified (or it will be surely tested in court) from running for the Presidency.

I still reckon there are plenty of swinging voters amongst Republican voters who will not vote for him again, making his re-election very unlikely.

I hope so, surely they’ll realise Biden is the lesser of two evils/past-it old men, at the very worst… but this is the US population we’re talking about, and you can never be sure. A bit like ours on occasions.

Plus there’s seemingly crooked Republican voting officials being installed in certain states, which the incumbent President can do fark all about.

It’s no longer the GOP.

It’s GPI.

General paralysis of the insane.

National syphilis.

LOL @ the Orange Buffoon.

Just watching some Ewetube clips of US news coverage of Trump's Georgia Indictment.

Turns out he got special treatment at the Fulton County jail. He was only there for 20 minutes (including for the scowling, much practiced mug shot), when the process normally takes a whole lot longer (an hour plus).

It transpires that he was granted special permission to supply his own physical statistics and was not "measured". So his recorded weight of 97 kg (which is a full 10 kgs less than his weight while President) was provided by Trump himself. LOL.

I don't reckon he's been eating any less KFC and McDonalds since losing the Election (and he sure doesn't look any thinner), so this clearly seems to be bullshit number supplied by his minders.

What a sad man-child he is. He narcissistically has to lie about his weight to impress his following. What a boob.

“Tangerine Palpatine” is my favourite one… even if he possesses nothing like the calculating evil of the fictional Emperor.

I think the Scots got it right years ago when they dubbed him a cockwomble.
