    And this goes back to my question: If Trump decides to flee to Russia in his private jet, what do we do?

    And, I think it’s safe to say that he had no intention of creating such a thing. His goal was simply to get more viewers and make more money, not rip at the democratic process of the country.

    I forget who it was but they were pointing out how stupid that whole line of reasoning is.

    All Speech is NOT Protected Speech.

    This isn’t a complicated statement and has a couple hundred years of legal precedence.

    If I call up a guy I went to HS with who just got out of jail for murder and I offer him 10k to kill my wife that is Speech but it isn’t Protected Speech.

    If I call up 10 other guys and we sit down and plan out an overly elaborate robbery of a casino in Vegas that is Speech but it isn’t Protected Speech.

    Same thing goes if you plan out how to steal an election. It is Speech but it isn’t Protected Speech.

    Pence is a witness, and there are also videos circulating of Trump supporters harrassing him.
    We've got to consider the possibility that he wants a spell in jail.

    Zero chance of that. My question is: What happens if some looney Trumper kills one of the Republicans running for President? If we don't seriously rethink things, then we're kinda fucked.

    He doesn’t sound the least bit bothered by his legal situation.

    He's not smart enough to think something like that through. You're giving him way too much credit. :brood:

    Martyr isn't quite the right term. I'm sure he wants the authorities to try throwing him in jail, but only because he thinks it'll be the spark that ignites Civil War II, which ends with him reinstalled as President For Life and Trump Tower becoming the new White House.


    And to be fair he's partially right, if they do try putting him in jail there's very likely to be violence from his supporters. That's a big part of why everyone has been so hesitant to actually charge him in the first place.

    I dunno, I think the successful J6 prosecutions have been a good deterrent so far, judging by the lack of large protests at the arraignments.

    No, it isn't.

    It has a very specific meaning.

    One we absolutely shouldn't encourage him to seek, or anyone to help him with.

    I'm thinking more along the lines of mentally unstable lone wolf types that finally snap upon seeing Trump in handcuffs. Like that guy they found walking around with a gun near where Trump had posted that Obama lived, or the idiots that sent to many threats to Bragg and Merchan that they decided to up security.

    I am actually cool with his followers nailing him to a cross and then being confused as to why he does not come back. Of course they would blame their own actions on Antifa or BLM, but no one but the CHUDs say or feel that way.

    Who but the already crazy trumpers is going to think cheeto is a martyr simply because he dies? You cannot fix crazy stupid, and you should not stop progress for them either. The us spent way too long pretending they are afraid of a few psychos being violent because they charged Twitler. Oh wait, now it should be Xler. They are not even vi9olent anymore, they are dressing up in spangly costumes and doing street performance. The threats from the right were empty. Even their coup was just them breaking into a building and stealing shit. There was not enough police presence to stop that mob had it really was set on taking some losses to kill some congresscritters. Aside from dead scumbag airforce twat the rest of them just sort of got bored and left.

    These are not people with a taste for blood. It is like a crowd of UAs and FFs. You break the first one's face and send their teeth flying and the rest slink away yelling about how you were lucky to escape their wrath.

    He won't do it because there is no more McDonald's or Diet Coke in Russia.

    At this point I'm feeling like let 'em riot, arrest 'em all and let the courts sort it out while those idiots rot in jail waiting for Trump to bail them out and/or pay their legal bills. :brood:

    He's not wrong though. Nancy Pelosi is a corrupt politician.
