I’m loving how this is quickly devolving into and endless shit show for them. Keep the updates rolling in. I still have a week of vacation left.
I'm just hoping that they'll start eating each other once deals are offered.
I just don't see trump ever seeing the inside of a jail cell.
Trust the process. They are going to keep putting the squeeze on all of them until enough flip to fry the big guy.
NOBODY wants to spend the rest of their life in prison. I don’t care how loyal you are, when the reality sets in that’s what’s going to happen if they don’t cooperate they will break for cover and they will “eat each other” to try and get the best deal possible.
The alphabet agencies get organised crime members to flip.
It’s going to be a walk in the park getting these idiots to turn on each other once the screws are turned.
I hope so, but I don't see trump behind bars. Even the Dems don't want that, as it sets a precedent that the elite is able to be brought to justice.
I do. Sorry this is where we disagree. The president is a U.S. Citizen. The laws of this land must be applied equally to all.
Sure but I'm guessing you hold no office and aren't part of the elite are you?
That’s a defeatist mentality. Then you wonder why the “elite” keep that title. Shame on you for giving into their will so easily.
If you want change. Fight for it. Don’t lay down and let them take it or they will take it all.
Are you suggesting we take up arms?
No. You suggested that. Don’t put words in my mouth. As a matter of fact, we’re done here. You’re being ridiculous so kindly fuck off and take your bullshit somewhere else.
Lol, dude you're the one that's suggesting to fight for it via more than likely voting in the same elites that you're annoyed with.
I don't want to be endless. I want to see all of them in prison already!
Completely valid and fair. This is very cathartic for me so don’t mind my enjoyment.
Oh do enjoy!! 🍿
