Honestly, while the humor and memes might seem amusing, it's important to recognize that this is precisely what they want. By making the situation seem ridiculous, we risk diverting attention from the serious and substantial allegations against Trump.

We shouldn't allow them to manipulate the narrative and trivialize the issues at hand. Their intention is to downplay the gravity through memes and laughter, while the actual impact on global democracy is a significant concern.

Stay focused on the real issues and their implications.

What part of the last 7 years has made sense? We all have to let off a little steam here and he hates being made fun of. I don't know, give us this one.

You could say the same shit the last 50 years of Roe v Wade, and look where that got us.

I have no idea of what you're trying to say. Are you saying we should have made more fun of the Roe v Wade people because I don't remember anyone doing that in the last 20. People are making amazing memes on Trump, even his supporters probably think so. The trial will bring home what a shit stain he is.

No it's a "centrist" talking point because everybody blames Dems for not codifying it.

I think I can laugh at a dumb picture and remain aware of actual issues at the same time, but if that's what you need to focus effectively...

Have to say I agree. Remember this is the guy that paid a company to Photoshop his face onto ridiculous characters and then sold those as NFTs. GOP incels love these goofy memes and making a mockery of anything sacred including the practice of democracy. Such a piece of shit for simultaneously supporting various forms of hatred and eroding the quality of a democratic system. I doubt he will do any time, but this pathetic cowardly fuck can eat shit.
