Most of us humans have scant ability to hold in our minds things that seemed of tremendous importance not that long ago. We seldom hark back to an incident that at the time seemed momentous, only to be shoved to the back of our minds by a succession of more recent attention-grabbing events.Thus, far...

        …I care. Seeing the capitol attacked by terrorists, may not be a 1 to 1 comparison to pedophilia, but its still kind of a big deal… He should be punished for all his crimes. However, Im pretty sure I have better odds of winning hundreds of millions playing the lottery, than I do of see justice for any of our crooked politicians.

          I agree, I was joking. It’s just that this guy manages to top his idiotic dystopian criminal actions with even worse ones. We should never forget what happened, we should learn from it. But in general, we’re living in Idiocracy and most don’t give a shit.

    Someone objected to the picture I’ve been posting, and I said I’d see what I could do. So, here’s my lazy attempt to give some more examples.

    The official presidential portrait should have him wearing that stupid hat. I bet he would even agree to it. I can’t believe he likes wearing it. Also, where are the Epstein files, coward?

    If you think Jan 6th was the worst thing he’s done then you need to look deep inside yourself.

      I’d say raping a 13-year-old girl would be higher up in the list.

        You really think that violence against one person is worse than attempting to violently overthrow a nation of 330 million people?

          Violently overthrow? All these MAGA retards and they forgot to bring guns? He definitely sat back and enjoyed the spectacle, but his rape and sexual abuse of girls and women was much worse in my opinion. Now that he’s back in power, he’s committing much worse crimes. He’s going to pardon that fucking cunt Ghislane, and who’s going to hold him to account?
