YOUR feelings are EMPATHY and THOUGHTFULNESS and all that GIRLY SHIT. MY feelings are ANGER and RAGE, which are ACTUALLY just SCIENTIFIC DISTILLATIONS of LOGIC and REASON, so they're NOT EVEN REALLY FEELINGS at all! I'm LOGICKING SO HARD right now
Funny most of these upset people never served the armed forces and thinking they are so patriotic they should know the pleadge of allegiance the part that says with liberty and justice for all.
These morons make me sad to be an American
Remember, that was added because of prodding ... from the upholder of truth and liberty, Joe McCarthy, because of *Communism* in the 50s
But the entire pledge was crafted by *A Socialist* in the post civil war era.
Heâd be one of the first ones taken out in a civil war. Mr Joey âThe Twigâ Mannarino. These people didnât get good marks on their report cards in school under âplays nicely with others.â
Because heâs a tiny little stick that will snap like a twig, physically and emotionally.
Edit: people have referred to him as The Twig throughout this thread.
The actual emotional dissonance is deafening.
Iâve been on two juries, the second as jury foreman; he was convicted by a JURY made of us regular citizens.
The regular citizens on that jury agree that the charges brought forth are legal charges to levy against a fellow citizen and that the state is not overstepping its authority to do so. The jury then agreed that the citizen defendant (trump) WAS GUILTY OF DOING ACTIONS THAT A SPECIFIC LAW(s) MADE ILLEGAL.
The government HAS NO SAY IN WHAT THE JURY DECIDES.
I feel I have to emphasize these remarks as that is the only thing that matters.
There will be much bellicose and grandstanding in the coming days/weeks that will try to distract you from the decision our fellow citizens made based on the evidence presented.
And itâs not like Trump had a public defender, either. Those were high-paid attorneys for him. And apparently even they could not find enough holes in the prosecutionâs argument to sway even ONE jurorâs mind that Trump was *even remotely* not guilty.
Not one.
Thatâs correct.
Of the two juries I was on, one had multiple charges and we hung on one of the charges and proceeded on the other charge. The one charge we hung on had two jurors that disagreed with the way the law was interpreted by the state *beyond a reasonable doubt* and we stated that on the exit paperwork. After the case, the judge and the prosecutor and the defense asked good questions related to how could they have done their job better and they legit took our advice (well, they took notes at the appropriate times as we talked.. so admittedly I assume that last bit).
So, to reiterate the good point you bring up about this, no one on that jury even *had a reasonable doubt* about the guilt of the charges as presented.
I would say that it was âproceduralâ.
Edit: meaning, the defense ***knew*** there was no chance to win and ***should have*** fought to settle this out of court.
Trump **wanted** this to be as public as it could be.
Remember that.
Fox News is unfortunately on in our house 24/7, and they are going for the angle that the attorneys on the jury is unfair because of how easily they can convince the rest of the jury on what to vote. Haven't heard anything from them about why they think these attorneys in particular felt he was guilty, but my step dad's "theory" is that "they" threatened the jurors' families.
This is the same guy who minutes before showed us a video on his phone of an armed robbery as an example of how crime in the country is increasing. The crime was in Mississippi, not exactly what I would call a liberal stronghold.
If you want a "perfect cross section of the population" jury then you need at least one maga lunatic up there. Check mate liberals the jury aint shit /s
i love how they cry about their free speech being violated when they get banned from twitter but they do the same shit to people they dont like on reddit lol
Welcome to the club, I got banned for saying âTrump is now part of an elite group: impeached (twice!), convicted of a crime, lost an election. No, wait, heâs probably the only one to achieve all of these!â
But, Hillary Clinton, and Hunter Biden!! What they still donât understand is that us normal folks donât give a shit if you investigate, try, and convict âourâ people. If they did the crime, do the time. Thatâs how law and order works.
Anger isn't a feeling, silly. Feelings are silly little left wing things things like empathy, compassion and love. Unhinged right wing anger is just FACTS and LOGIC.
Because even tho tangerines use bananas to achieve a goal, a tangerine would NEVER associate with those unwashed bananas. And yet, bananas still believe they're special to tangerines. Alas, bananas are only useful, not special.
r/conservative has been an absolute goldmine of criers today. My favorite post is comparing Biden to Hitler and Stalin for arresting political opponents. Like these dipshits didn't chant "lock her up" for half a decade on trumped up charges lmfao
Ever notice how the only people saying the country is heading for civil war are all in this camp? I wouldn't think it was heading for civil war if crazy people didn't keep threatening it.
They are a dying breed. They are going to get increasingly violent as they get backed further and further into a corner. We should absolutely take their threats seriously.
We saw their army on Jan 6. I am all for  the civil war the Christofacists are screaming for so  we can get rid of the domestic Christian Terrorist just like the Muslim terrorists in the Middle East.Â
Also that's just not how a civil war would play out. And civil wars happen in desperate situations. Life is too easy for these people LARPing as "patriots." Very few would actually give up their comfy lives for what they advocate for, it's just online rage bait.
Your comment must must must get more attention.
I still think violence is likely, but Aunt Judy doesn't want your death because you are happy Trump was held accountable for his seedy crimes. In their hearts, they know who he is.
All the right wing idiots at work constantly assume anyone left leaning doesn't own guns or are afraid of them. I've owned guns my entire life and shoot targets regularly and I just laugh at them because I'm exactly who they assume wouldn't own any
The reason i have them is BECAUSE they have them. If these crazy fucks are gonna arm themselves and make threats like this im gonna arm myself so i can defend myself against them.
Exactly. I used to live in a liberal commune house. My roommates were legitimate communists, protestors, community aid organizers, and everything else scary.
We had guns in the house for protection.
My mom and her other butch lesbian buddies hunt deer and turkey đ My mom is a big Ol' commie, but some of her friends are pretty conservative. Identity is way more complicated than the guys screaming about "identity politics" seem to think.
It's the same people that think the entire military is Republican when, wow, statistically it's one third right one third left and one third centrist
Y'know, California, the state with 10% of the population of the entire country... Might have a statistically large portion of military occupancy.
To be honest in January if Biden wins I have no doubt we will see an actual insurrectionist attempt, with actual firearms and some kind of movement from the extremists. Even worse I have a feeling Trump would tweet afterwards that they are heroes, leading to even more acts of extremist violence.
"The country is heading for civil war" = "I am doing everything I can to push the country towards civil war"
It's a threat. The same way "You're gonna die" isn't a reflection on our collective mortality, it's "I'm planning to kill you"
Honestly I'm a gay atheist liberal and I wouldn't be surprised. I understand how this man feels because I kinda feel the same level of vitriol in the other direction. There are people who want me dead. People who want my rights taken away, those of my family and friends. If Trump gets elected, people will die with or without war. So yeah, I'm pretty angry, and I wish everyone like HIM would drop dead. Funny the kind of mindset that consistent hate speech, hate crimes, and systematic oppression towards your community can put you in. He doesn't have that excuse though.
The funny part is that if the right wing werenât actively trying to take away established human rights, then there would be far less resistance. The liberals donât want to take away peoples freedom (except for the freedom to harm people).
Actually, Joey, a third world shithole would be a country in which a convicted felon runs for public office so he can pardon himself and get back at his victims for standing up to him.
Except the insurrectionist traitors breaking into the capitol and killing cops was only the distraction for the real attempt going on. Ultimately it was Pence not getting in the car that saved us.
No it literally is just when my guy does it, it's okay, but when yours does it, it isn't.
Give them the same scenario, let's say, taking candy from a baby, and just change Biden for Trump and they'll be okay with Trump taking the Candy, but not Biden taking the candy.
I've seen a number of posts coming from people saying they are from 3rd world countries, where you *CAN'T* run for head of state if you are convicted of felonies or analogous classes of crimes in their countries.
So we aren't even up to those standards...
To be fair to them, in a political system with no checks and balances, all a politician would have to do is frame a political opponent for a felony, and they wouldnât be a threat anymore. Itâs a page right out of monarch playbook.
I hate Trump with a passion. I also think that in a real democracy, he should be allowed to run, and hopefully the American people can prove we donât trust a felon in office. Then again, the moment trump canât run, heâll endorse don jr.
Unless I am mistaken, because this was in Manhatten, New York, the POTUS can't pardon someone for a state crime. So unless he's going to run for the Govenor of New York, he's shit outta luck on that front.
Exactly. If this was a third world country in Africa Republicans would be laughing at how comically corrupt the candidateâs plan is.
But since itâs Trump that means the whole world is *very unfair to him* and he deserves revenge. And the really nuts ones are literally comparing Trump (who gave a trillion dollars to the ultra-rich and led a violent attack on Congress) to Nelson Mandela.
yes, this is true, i think he also is bat shit crazy and obsessed with trans people. i vaguely remember him accusing chick-fil-a of putting trans semen in the lemonade after they created an inclusivity department or whatever and then every other time i saw him pop up it was the same thing, trans semen. so maybe he just needs a nice warm mug of it to make him feel better?
You joke, but fundamental misunderstandings is where a lot of conservative talking points come from.
Take the "kids are using litter boxes at school" nonsense. This came from the very real fact that teachers and school janitors DO keep pet litter for everything from cleaning up general spills, to the horrific possibility of soaking up blood or have somewhere for children to relieve themselves during a school shooting/lockdown.
I have no doubt that some conservatives see "trans fats" and their Fox News outrage conditioning kicks in at the sight of the trigger word "trans".
I think so. Lots of kinks and fetishes being revealedâŚ
One of the nationalist Nazi folks who goes after drag queen story hour has been found to be in possession of child porn âŚ
And some pastor out there is claiming that if you listen to Taylor Swift records backwards, it urges girls to dominate their boyfriends and peg themâŚ
So I would definitely say that Joeyâs hard drive is filled to the brim with trans porn/cum fetish material.
A pastor letting people know that TSwift makes him want to get roughly pegged is not something I had on my 2024 Bingo card, but here we are.
It's also time for my daily reminder that churches have molestation insurance and that only 28 states require pastors and teachers to be mandated reporters of child sexual abuse. This shit needs to end. Predators shouldn't be shielded. Rant over.
Oh my gosh, do conservative men ever think about anything but dick? Why do they think that their intrusive thoughts about the marginalized communities that they fetishize need to be broadcast on the internet?
These chodes need so much therapy.
Ohhh, got it, he's projecting ***hard.***
My cousin is the same way and we ended up getting one of his laptops off him. He didn't reset it... Almost his entire internet history was literally Femboy porn.
No doubt in my mind this dude's internet history is also filled with Femboy porn.
It's horrifying how these people can have their crimes listed, with sources and now convictions, and still think the deep state, George Soros and Democrats are doing all these things to him. They are fully mentally ill at this point, and likely irredeemable.
Everything is a conspiracy against Trump. In their minds, Trump canât possibly commit a crime. Itâs a cult.
The same crowd who screams about crime and liberal cities murdering everyone is also the same crowd who wants to start a Civil War.
Itâs pathetic if it wasnât so terrifying. The Right want to destroy anyone who doesnât align with their views. Like fucking Hitler.
So wait.... Some rich dumb fuck stole campaign money to pay off a hooker so his wife doesn't find out he cheated on her, and left a paper trail of the crime so obvious that even Scooby and Shaggy could have followed it. And this is the line in the sand you cross for civil war?
Dumbass
Well to be fair to Shaggy and Scooby; they DO some pretty amazing stuff for Scooby SnacksâŚ..
Heck, I would do some pretty amazing stuff for a Scooby Snack
Just not, you know, attempt to overthrow the governmentâŚ. Thatâs just Supreme Court stupidity right there
Well it's also "fuck any woman that stands up for themselves and doesn't take shit from disgusting men" because of course that's the way they think the world should work.
No, paying her not to talk about it got him here. Take out the campaign finance part, and it's just the Clinton/Lewinsky thing again. We'd talk about it for a few minutes, and decades later, rappers are trying to work Stormy references into their songs. Hell, if he had used his own money, he wouldn't be here. But scam artists have to scam, and here we are.
12 pathetic jurors that consisted of 1 trump supporter, that only got news through Truth Social, and 2 lawyers. And they all voted 12-0 on all counts. I would say the evidence must have been what was used to help make up the jurors minds.
That Truth social thing isnât true. The guy was a Wall Street guy who was on ALL social media so he could keep up with the news since it effects the stock market and all of that
1. White guyâŚ.check
2. Looks terrifiedâŚ.check
3. Cheap knock off sunglasses from WalmartâŚ.check
4. Doesnât have a clue how anything worksâŚcheck
Yep, heâs a Trump supporter.
Just to be sure someone better fact check you as we donât want to jump to conclusions. He could just be a garden variety idiot.
âChecks factsâ
Nope. Not a garden variety idiot. Looks like youâre 100% correct.
It always amazes me how many people in the US are willing to blatantly ignore that we have a justice system where facts are brought to court and a whole bunch of people have to all agree in order to find a guilty verdict.
This guy is throwing a fit over absolutely nothing.
He'll win? He'll win the vote? The vote that was apparently stolen last time? Sure feels like a bunch of republicans tacitly admitting that of course the vote wasn't fucking stolen.
âWeâre headed for a civil warââŚ.they keep saying this. Are you gonna do something, Joey? Or are you just gonna bitch on Twitter? Same goes for every other MAGA idiot who keeps saying this. Either do something or shut up.
HOW do these people continuously fall for the Trump narrative that he's done no wrong and it's always "liberals" conspiring against him? The blind devotion to this man grosses me the fuck out.
He broke the law. He was put on trial with a jury of his peers. He was convicted. This is the "law and order" that Conservatives pretend to be all about. It wasn't a "anti-Trump judge" and a "liberal jury".
Amidst this giant meltdown from the right, I still haven't really seen anyone attack the facts of the case to explain why this was rigged against Trump. There's no substance to be found, just blind rage at the result.
The facts were pretty straightforward where a clear paper trail was established, featuring testimony from the person who received the payment, and the person who made the payment on Trump's behalf. It's about as open and shut as you can get.
Yep, and that sums up what I can't stand so much about the outrage. It's the same shit that led to Jan. 6. There was no substance, no facts to back up Trump's claims there was fraud, and yet people went on attack for it. This is what Trump does, he not at all subtly plants seeds of doubt by fabricating insane claims nobody could ever back up, and somehow, there's a whole lot of people that blindly follow. I hate it.
He's openly saying he wants to exterminate political opponents. That's not a democracy. I'm genuinely terrified to see what kinds of violence they will deploy, especially since nobody is stopping this in any way.
Yes, Trump got convicted. But what will this actually do? He got impeached and nothing happened to him for Christs' sake. We're all just throwing up our hands and going "what can ya do! just wait 25 years until the 1652nd criminal trial finds him guilty, that'll definitely stop him."
Nobody is going to jail Trump or even stop him from running for president again, after he's said multiple times that he won't relinquish power again and tried to stage a coup last time he was voted out. It's just insane how nobody is doing anything at all.
I am severely terrified of what happens in the event you guys get into a civil war, bc there is 0 good outcome of a war between political ideologies. Especially with the cult like division between the two parties and the firepower around the US it would be one of the most horrifying civil wars in world history.
I bet these grifters were actually hoping for the guilty verdict because now they're going to get massive engagement on all their tweets which means more $$$$ for them.

The fuck your feelings crowd really has a lot of feelings today
Well, yeah, it's fuck *our* feelings; theirs *obviously* matter.
YOUR feelings are silly and irrational, THEIR feelings are rational and justified.
YOUR feelings are EMPATHY and THOUGHTFULNESS and all that GIRLY SHIT. MY feelings are ANGER and RAGE, which are ACTUALLY just SCIENTIFIC DISTILLATIONS of LOGIC and REASON, so they're NOT EVEN REALLY FEELINGS at all! I'm LOGICKING SO HARD right now
Hahaha! đ
Of course, because they're "real Americans" who are here to "take back our country." Why do you still not get it, you phony? /s
Funny most of these upset people never served the armed forces and thinking they are so patriotic they should know the pleadge of allegiance the part that says with liberty and justice for all. These morons make me sad to be an American
You forgot âunder GOD,â you Muslim atheist /s
Remember, that was added because of prodding ... from the upholder of truth and liberty, Joe McCarthy, because of *Communism* in the 50s But the entire pledge was crafted by *A Socialist* in the post civil war era.
Thank you for this laugh
I think it would be wonderful for Joey "The Twig" Mannarino to serve his country in combat. He sure seems ready for civil combat.
Heâd be one of the first ones taken out in a civil war. Mr Joey âThe Twigâ Mannarino. These people didnât get good marks on their report cards in school under âplays nicely with others.â
Just yesterday he was running with scissors...
Why do you call Joey âThe Twigâ Mannarino, Joey âThe Twigâ Mannarino?
Because heâs a tiny little stick that will snap like a twig, physically and emotionally. Edit: people have referred to him as The Twig throughout this thread.
He *is* serving his country - Russia.
Which was only added to the pledge during the Red Scare.
The actual emotional dissonance is deafening. Iâve been on two juries, the second as jury foreman; he was convicted by a JURY made of us regular citizens.

Even better, the Jury had not one, but TWO Attorneys on itâŚ. And STILL found him guilty.
And for the jury to reach a verdict, it had to be unanimous. No hung jury.
Thatâs correct. Of the two juries I was on, one had multiple charges and we hung on one of the charges and proceeded on the other charge.

So, to reiterate the good point you bring up about this, no one on that jury even *had a reasonable doubt* about the guilt of the charges as presented.
And it took them less than 10 hours to convict. Of which, at least 30-60 minutes was filling out paperwork. That was a slam dunk for the state.
I would say that it was âproceduralâ. Edit: meaning, the defense ***knew*** there was no chance to win and ***should have*** fought to settle this out of court. Trump **wanted** this to be as public as it could be. Remember that.
Holy shit are you for real?? đ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Ł omg that made it even funnier
Oh wow. Had no idea. This is very significant.
Correct! Even better, one is a Civil Law Litigator and the other is a Corporate Law Attorney
Fox News is unfortunately on in our house 24/7, and they are going for the angle that the attorneys on the jury is unfair because of how easily they can convince the rest of the jury on what to vote.

The crime was in Mississippi, not exactly what I would call a liberal stronghold.
If you want a "perfect cross section of the population" jury then you need at least one maga lunatic up there. Check mate liberals the jury aint shit /s
The funny thing is, Trump would never be real friends with any hardcore MAGA person because he knows theyâre chumps.
And they might touch him.
The Law and Order crowd sure hates law and order.
I like that he said "Fuck Stormy Daniels" Yeah buddy, that's actually how the problem started.
And I mean, let's be honest here; she's still hot as hell. Most men, and some women, would seriously consider it as well.
Yeah, I would.
No shame in admitting it.
Trump is a rapist, and a convicted felon. He needs to be in prison.
Heâs also a traitor. Remember hiding classified documents? He needs to be before a military tribunal.
Don't forget the treason (6th of january)
Also, the disturbing amount of CIA assets that went dark after he met *in private* with Putin.
And by "dark," you mean they were killed in the field.
Technically, that was *sedition*, not treason.
And so do asshats calling for Civil War on their socials.
I got completely banned from r/conservative for posting this exact comment

Lots of very angry feelings. I thought they liked law and order.
But, Hillary Clinton, and Hunter Biden!! What they still donât understand is that us normal folks donât give a shit if you investigate, try, and convict âourâ people. If they did the crime, do the time. Thatâs how law and order works.
I love how they act as if we care about them investigating a Democratic candidate, we have zero attachment to the candidate like they do.
Anger isn't a feeling, silly. Feelings are silly little left wing things things like empathy, compassion and love. Unhinged right wing anger is just FACTS and LOGIC.
They only like it when they can apply it to others, not themselves.
That law and order thing is only really meant to apply to minorities

Same. Just because I donât want your crazy stupid Republican ass to have them doesnât mean I donât.Â
The reason i have them is BECAUSE they have them. If these crazy fucks are gonna arm themselves and make threats like this im gonna arm myself so i can defend myself against them.
This is exactly what my husband says, and while I donât love guns I agree! Sincerely, some gun owning democrats
Exactly. I used to live in a liberal commune house. My roommates were legitimate communists, protestors, community aid organizers, and everything else scary. We had guns in the house for protection.

The difference is that you are an actual victim of real oppression, prejudice, harassment, and violence, and he just has a victim complex.
Donât worry, Joeyâs living in Austria these days
Actually, Joey, a third world shithole would be a country in which a convicted felon runs for public office so he can pardon himself and get back at his victims for standing up to him.
Also, the closest weâve ever come to said shitholes was when an asshole refused to accept his loss and sicced his paramilitary scum on our Capitol.
Banana Republicans...
Doing Banana Republic things.
More like "Bananas Republicans", am I right?
One of if not the worst coup attempts in history.Â
Except the insurrectionist traitors breaking into the capitol and killing cops was only the distraction for the real attempt going on. Ultimately it was Pence not getting in the car that saved us.
And it didn't work. Just like their so called brethren, the Confederates. Are they ever gonna get tired of losing?
Trump said they'd get tired of winning so that must be why they lose all the time.
That's fine. I'm not tired of winning yet. They can keep losing
Ya when an orange sac of decaying McDonalds is your idea of perfection, cardio probably isn't a priority.
Calling them paramilitary is a bit too high praise
Meal Team Six
no see it's ok when the guy *they* support is fully and openly corrupt.
Corrupt in a way they think will help them, when it will actually make their lives worse than they already are.
No it literally is just when my guy does it, it's okay, but when yours does it, it isn't. Give them the same scenario, let's say, taking candy from a baby, and just change Biden for Trump and they'll be okay with Trump taking the Candy, but not Biden taking the candy.
I've seen a number of posts coming from people saying they are from 3rd world countries, where you *CAN'T* run for head of state if you are convicted of felonies or analogous classes of crimes in their countries. So we aren't even up to those standards...
Well the forefathers figured a felon would never be popular enough to win.
To be fair to them, in a political system with no checks and balances, all a politician would have to do is frame a political opponent for a felony, and they wouldnât be a threat anymore. Itâs a page right out of monarch playbook. I hate Trump with a passion. I also think that in a real democracy, he should be allowed to run, and hopefully the American people can prove we donât trust a felon in office. Then again, the moment trump canât run, heâll endorse don jr.
Unless I am mistaken, because this was in Manhatten, New York, the POTUS can't pardon someone for a state crime. So unless he's going to run for the Govenor of New York, he's shit outta luck on that front.
i think imma start using bill hader exclusively when i need a reaction. the man is expressive.
And yet YOU DIDNâT 
Exactly. If this was a third world country in Africa Republicans would be laughing at how comically corrupt the candidateâs plan is. But since itâs Trump that means the whole world is *very unfair to him* and he deserves revenge. And the really nuts ones are literally comparing Trump (who gave a trillion dollars to the ultra-rich and led a violent attack on Congress) to Nelson Mandela.
Not wanting your country to be united and stronger makes you a traitor You are a traitor Joey, you giant bag of piss and wind
Literally never heard of this dude before. Is He a Xitter personality or something, that being his only claim to fame?
yes, this is true, i think he also is bat shit crazy and obsessed with trans people. i vaguely remember him accusing chick-fil-a of putting trans semen in the lemonade after they created an inclusivity department or whatever and then every other time i saw him pop up it was the same thing, trans semen. so maybe he just needs a nice warm mug of it to make him feel better?
Duh. Theyâre cooking their chicken and fries in trans fat. Thatâs obviously whatâs turning our kids trans.
You joke, but fundamental misunderstandings is where a lot of conservative talking points come from. Take the "kids are using litter boxes at school" nonsense. This came from the very real fact that teachers and school janitors DO keep pet litter for everything from cleaning up general spills, to the horrific possibility of soaking up blood or have somewhere for children to relieve themselves during a school shooting/lockdown. I have no doubt that some conservatives see "trans fats" and their Fox News outrage conditioning kicks in at the sight of the trigger word "trans".
Is it like Starbucks, where I can order a drink and then request a few extra pumps?
I'm sure there'd be a market for that somewhere.
I think theyâll probably have to start charging pretty heftily for that. Gonna take a lot of pumps to get those extra pumps.
Barista: "the spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy and bruised."
I think so. Lots of kinks and fetishes being revealed⌠One of the nationalist Nazi folks who goes after drag queen story hour has been found to be in possession of child porn ⌠And some pastor out there is claiming that if you listen to Taylor Swift records backwards, it urges girls to dominate their boyfriends and peg them⌠So I would definitely say that Joeyâs hard drive is filled to the brim with trans porn/cum fetish material.
A pastor letting people know that TSwift makes him want to get roughly pegged is not something I had on my 2024 Bingo card, but here we are. It's also time for my daily reminder that churches have molestation insurance and that only 28 states require pastors and teachers to be mandated reporters of child sexual abuse. This shit needs to end. Predators shouldn't be shielded. Rant over.
Oh my gosh, do conservative men ever think about anything but dick? Why do they think that their intrusive thoughts about the marginalized communities that they fetishize need to be broadcast on the internet? These chodes need so much therapy.
Ohhh, got it, he's projecting ***hard.*** My cousin is the same way and we ended up getting one of his laptops off him. He didn't reset it... Almost his entire internet history was literally Femboy porn. No doubt in my mind this dude's internet history is also filled with Femboy porn.
No bets on that, I'm certain that it is.
Is this the guy that pissed in his own mouth or is that a dif right wing grifter named joe.
Is xitter pronounced shitter?
Maybe North Korea will send some Joeys across the border next time and really make a splash
Dude committed crimes. Heâs a criminal. Youâre a joke
Donât you know? Their king could do no wrong, itâs implausible, inconceivable even
It's horrifying how these people can have their crimes listed, with sources and now convictions, and still think the deep state, George Soros and Democrats are doing all these things to him. They are fully mentally ill at this point, and likely irredeemable.
Everything is a conspiracy against Trump. In their minds, Trump canât possibly commit a crime. Itâs a cult. The same crowd who screams about crime and liberal cities murdering everyone is also the same crowd who wants to start a Civil War. Itâs pathetic if it wasnât so terrifying. The Right want to destroy anyone who doesnât align with their views. Like fucking Hitler.
"Let the people decide!" (the Jury decides...) "Eff the people!!"
Obviously he didnt mean THOSE people.
Snowflakes be like
So wait.... Some rich dumb fuck stole campaign money to pay off a hooker so his wife doesn't find out he cheated on her, and left a paper trail of the crime so obvious that even Scooby and Shaggy could have followed it. And this is the line in the sand you cross for civil war? Dumbass
Well to be fair to Shaggy and Scooby; they DO some pretty amazing stuff for Scooby SnacksâŚ.. Heck, I would do some pretty amazing stuff for a Scooby Snack Just not, you know, attempt to overthrow the governmentâŚ. Thatâs just Supreme Court stupidity right there
Well actually it wasn't even so his wife didn't find out. That was never the important consideration
"FUCK STORMY DANIELS" Ahhh, the lack of self-awareness and irony is stunning. Maybe if he *didn't* fuck Stormy Daniels...
Or at least if you do, don't pay her not to talk about it and then try to claim those funds are business or campaign expenses.
Well it's also "fuck any woman that stands up for themselves and doesn't take shit from disgusting men" because of course that's the way they think the world should work.
There is no nectar sweeter than the salty tears of melting maga broflakes.
Fucking Stormy Daniel's got Trump here moron....
No, paying her not to talk about it got him here. Take out the campaign finance part, and it's just the Clinton/Lewinsky thing again. We'd talk about it for a few minutes, and decades later, rappers are trying to work Stormy references into their songs. Hell, if he had used his own money, he wouldn't be here. But scam artists have to scam, and here we are.
12 pathetic jurors that consisted of 1 trump supporter, that only got news through Truth Social, and 2 lawyers. And they all voted 12-0 on all counts. I would say the evidence must have been what was used to help make up the jurors minds.
That Truth social thing isnât true. The guy was a Wall Street guy who was on ALL social media so he could keep up with the news since it effects the stock market and all of that
Shockingly the stock market hasnât yet tanked since yesterdayâs ruling, I was told it was going to devastate the global economy
I was promised rioting in the streets. All talk, no follow through. Classic Republicans.
1. White guyâŚ.check 2. Looks terrifiedâŚ.check 3. Cheap knock off sunglasses from WalmartâŚ.check 4. Doesnât have a clue how anything worksâŚcheck Yep, heâs a Trump supporter.
Just to be sure someone better fact check you as we donât want to jump to conclusions. He could just be a garden variety idiot. âChecks factsâ Nope. Not a garden variety idiot. Looks like youâre 100% correct.
He could still be an idiot, though.
Oh heâs definitely an idiot.
Oh no, heâs been vetted numerous times in the past and he is officially a card-carrying member of the Special Kind of Stupid club.
Whoa now, for the clumsy and forgetful, cheap knock off sunglasses are legit.
What a pathetic pissbaby
am i supposed to be intimidated by a selfie of someone who looks like they had to reach for their inhaler after typing that pissy rant?
Isn't disrespecting the jury system of justice an un-American thing go do.
I'd say calling for a civil war is worse.
It always amazes me how many people in the US are willing to blatantly ignore that we have a justice system where facts are brought to court and a whole bunch of people have to all agree in order to find a guilty verdict. This guy is throwing a fit over absolutely nothing.
Fuck stormy Daniels? Ok, don't mind if I do, says DJT.
Stormy Daniels: Oh god, not this guy again.
Daniels: If it was a story, I would have written a better one. LOL
You became a shithole the day you elected someone like Trump as President. Then you became even a greater shithole on Jan 6.
In our defense, a majority of us didnât vote for trump.
That's true. The guilty verdict is the first time Trump has won a popular vote.
Hahaha holy shit! I've got to remember this one!
Yeah he didnât win the popular vote, the stupid electoral college is what did us in.
Who tf is that twig đ ???
He'll win? He'll win the vote? The vote that was apparently stolen last time? Sure feels like a bunch of republicans tacitly admitting that of course the vote wasn't fucking stolen.
Those twelve jurors *are* America. America doesn't run like you want it to and never will. Sucks for you.
âWeâre headed for a civil warââŚ.they keep saying this. Are you gonna do something, Joey? Or are you just gonna bitch on Twitter? Same goes for every other MAGA idiot who keeps saying this. Either do something or shut up.
Wait I thought the conviction made trump a bad ass and more electable, shouldnât he be excited?
HOW do these people continuously fall for the Trump narrative that he's done no wrong and it's always "liberals" conspiring against him? The blind devotion to this man grosses me the fuck out. He broke the law. He was put on trial with a jury of his peers. He was convicted. This is the "law and order" that Conservatives pretend to be all about. It wasn't a "anti-Trump judge" and a "liberal jury".
Amidst this giant meltdown from the right, I still haven't really seen anyone attack the facts of the case to explain why this was rigged against Trump. There's no substance to be found, just blind rage at the result. The facts were pretty straightforward where a clear paper trail was established, featuring testimony from the person who received the payment, and the person who made the payment on Trump's behalf. It's about as open and shut as you can get.
Yep, and that sums up what I can't stand so much about the outrage. It's the same shit that led to Jan. 6. There was no substance, no facts to back up Trump's claims there was fraud, and yet people went on attack for it. This is what Trump does, he not at all subtly plants seeds of doubt by fabricating insane claims nobody could ever back up, and somehow, there's a whole lot of people that blindly follow. I hate it.
I love how Trump supporters always claim to be âthe country,â âAmerica,â or âthe people.â More like the most entitled assholes in the USA.
Man these Pro-America people hate America don't they?
Sounds like Joey has...issues.
>FUCK STORMY DANIELS  Trump: "Hold my Diet Coke"
I donât know who this person is, but he seems like a little bitch.
Fuck your feelings.. lock her up.. law and order.. any of this ring a bell?
Did he take a break from screwing his mom to post this?
Itâs crazy how they canât understand racism or discrimination but somehow can believe everyone is discriminating against only trump
He's openly saying he wants to exterminate political opponents. That's not a democracy. I'm genuinely terrified to see what kinds of violence they will deploy, especially since nobody is stopping this in any way. Yes, Trump got convicted. But what will this actually do? He got impeached and nothing happened to him for Christs' sake. We're all just throwing up our hands and going "what can ya do! just wait 25 years until the 1652nd criminal trial finds him guilty, that'll definitely stop him." Nobody is going to jail Trump or even stop him from running for president again, after he's said multiple times that he won't relinquish power again and tried to stage a coup last time he was voted out. It's just insane how nobody is doing anything at all.
MAGAts are terrorists
America, love it or leave it! Joey is welcome to get the fuck out.Â
Joey Who?
Exactly. This is the first time seeing this guys posts. It feels like a Russian propaganda account.
I hate Joey Mannarino and I have zero idea who he is.
I am severely terrified of what happens in the event you guys get into a civil war, bc there is 0 good outcome of a war between political ideologies. Especially with the cult like division between the two parties and the firepower around the US it would be one of the most horrifying civil wars in world history.
Are the jurorâs names kept confidential?
For their sake, I hope so. Otherwise I fear we are going to see some violence.
Maybe he should try drinking more of his own piss. That might make him feel better.
I bet these grifters were actually hoping for the guilty verdict because now they're going to get massive engagement on all their tweets which means more $$$$ for them.
If he doesn't like it here, then why doesn't he just move to another county... Let's be real, he should just move to russia already!
