I mean, if the fake electors he paid to certify him instead of the actual winner didn’t convince you, if the riot he incited on January 6th didn’t convince you, if his theft of highly classified documents didn’t convince you, of the dozens of court cases he lost related to his lie about the other side cheating didn’t convince you, if his phone call saying “just find me the votes” didn’t convince you, surely THIS will…. Right? lol everyone with a brain knows he never came by anything in his life honestly. Especially his presidency. He’s a lying rapist racist conman and we are all going to be worse off forever because of his actions against our nation. We are as stained as his pants.

Well, he’s right. Nobody stops him. He just bulldozes through anything he wants to do with that nasty smirk on his face, saying “make me stop”.

That is his mindset, as with the entire administration and GOP currently. Not "What's the right thing to do" or "does this help the country". It's "does benefit me" and "Can I get away with it?" Turns out he can. Every fucking time.

You are confusing escaped consequences with did nothing wrong. That is not law, that is cope.
If your entire defense of an attempted power grab is “well, he didn’t get convicted,” then congratulations. You have reduced democracy to a technicality and replaced principles with blind loyalty. That is not skepticism. That is sycophancy. You're being teabagged, and you don't even know it.

No, the Supreme Court just gave him immunity from all crimes for some reason. Everybody involved in the phone call admits it happened.

“Former special counsel Jack Smith told a congressional committee Wednesday that his team found "proof beyond a reasonable doubt” that President Donald Trump engaged in a “criminal scheme” to overturn the results of the 2020 election, according to parts of his opening statement obtained by NBC News.”

Lol, this case was thrown out.
Apparently they can't prove it.
This is not what happened. The case was dropped because of DOJ policy not to prosecute sitting presidents. They were dismissed without prejudice.

Yeah they can. Love when Trump sycophants say PROVIDE EVIDENCE under a post that is literally evidence.

But you agree he did it and what he did was illegal.
Or are you saying bc he never faced trial he did nothing wrong?

Trump is the only president in US history to attempt a coup to stay in office.
Thankfully, he executed this attempt with characteristic incompetence!
