a convicted felon, Sleepy Don, loses the election.

Don't fall for the nonsense that a conviction will gain him support.

AND the facts.

That’s who. Sometimes it’s a lot more comfortable to cling to your beliefs, no matter how or how often they’ve been shown to be wrong.

Nobody wants to admit they were wrong, much less that they’ve been had. That they put their faith in a proven, relentless, and well-documented liar.

of a presidential landslide of historic magnitude. It is getting the feeling of epic electoral punishment for the defendant. I fervently hope I'm right.

That support TFG there is absolutely nothing that will change their vote.
He could, I mean this very literally, do anything and they would still vote for him.
I mean TFG could be on live video personally handing Putin classified documents, while eating a live baby while taking a dump on the American flag and not lose a single vote. They truly don't care what he does as he is just a means to an end for their racism, misogyny, bigotry and xenophobia.

When the trial is more accurately seen as "felonious falsification of business records in aid of election manipulation" the percentage of people viewng the charges as "serious" is bound to go up.

A good portion of the public doesn't know that Trump actually doesn't deny he had sex with Stormy Daniels. They're just hearing soudbytes and thinking just more political nonsense. But a court case distils things pretty quickly. These were crimes, Trump is a total disgusting creep who cheats.

This is more than Grab em by the p*ssy, this will be actual testimony describing how sick Trump is and these will be felony convictions. A lot of people who just think this is noise now are going to have their eyes opened.

60%, plus!

Nothing less than 60% control of both the house and senate as well as state houses and governorships should be our REALISTIC goal for November. Our free and best political message sits, stewing in his own sweat, in a courtroom in NY, NY. As for the rest of the corrupt bastards who squeeze by in November, "off with their heads", remove them constitutionally, based on the facts. Let's set in to grow tired from all the winning.
