Former President George W. Bush's silence through all of this is deafening. Whatever his policies and presidency amounted to, he was never anti-democracy. He knows what Trump is doing is wrong and dangerous. He should be speaking out.

The first time I searched Trump, there were over 900 records found.

I also confirmed there are now 332.

This Jack Smith deposition makes one thing abundantly clear:

If Donald Trump wasn’t re-elected, he’d be spending the rest of his life in prison.

And he should be.

This unbelievably dim loser thinks he comes off well in this video, as he tries to force his way into a daycare.

The employee asks “what department” they’re from, and he says “we are from ourselves” — because being an entitled white man empowers you to act like a vigilante, apparently?
uhhh yeah I can see why these childcare properties weren't eager to let in some rando dudes asking "where are the kids?"

Smith: He was getting calls from people he trusts, people he relies on—and he still refused to come to the aid of the people at the Capitol. That’s very important evidence for criminal intent in our case.

I’m shocked - shocked, I tell you - that refusing FBI criminal background checks likely resulted in… criminals in the administration.

To be fair, that was also the entire point - there were several Trump appointees who wouldn’t have passed an FBI background check.

"When it happens, Republicans will object (and you can only imagine the meltdown Trump himself will have on Truth Social). The response Dems give should be simple: *Too bad. We have the power now.* A strong message must be sent to the country and future generations that Trump will not be honored."
Why every vestige of Trump must be torn down
He's trying to create a physical legacy. The moment he's out of power, it has to be smashed to bits.
