With this content, I'd leave the ads running. They are reminding people of his broken promises.
CONSEQUENCES?
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING TO BE DONE ABOUT IT?
I'M TIRED OF ASKING THIS QUESTION!
I'VE BEEN SAYING FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS NOW, IT FEELS LIKE WATCHING A CROOK BREAK INTO EVERY HOUSE ON THE STREET, SHOOT EVERYBODY, STEAL ALL THE VALUABLES, AND SET THE HOUSES ON FIRE WHILE THE POLICE JUST STAND THERE AND SAY "THAT MIGHT BE ILLEGAL"
Well said! I bet Nixon is spinning in his grave now at how Trump is behaving: "You mean I could have stayed in office and faced no consequences!?" I know the world has changed, Democrats and Republicans were both closer to whatever one would call center back then.
Add it to the crime pile over there in the corner. Wait, sorry; it’s grown a bit since I last checked. You want the crime pile sitting on the horizon that looks vaguely like Mt. Whitney.
~~pile~~ mountain
Wow, he sounds just like hitler...
Also,
We will expel the warmongers from our government
He is the warmonger in our fucking government.
Also,
Broadcasters should be ordered to stop running Trump commercials that appear to violate US laws, consumer advocacy group Public Citizen said today in a complaint to the Federal Communications Commission and Federal Trade Commission.
Who's gonna give that order? Those agencies are run by trump-appointees...
The word allegedly is going to need a long vacation after this government is gone.
Yeah I am tired of broad daylight crimes with ample evidence treated as "alleged."
It's like saying the murder is "alleged" when the cops showed up to see the murderer in the act of stabbing the victim over and over and it was all caught on their fucking body cameras. They had to pull the murderer away from the victim's body. "Alleged."
It's all due to legal liability. Even in your example, it's theoretically in the realm of possibility that the cops found the person stabbing a body that was already dead. It's stupid, but if they just say alleged, most of the possible lawsuits just go away.
What do you expect, our government to actually know what our laws are?
Guess what? We wont get it. It will just get worse and worse.
Oh look, YET ANOTHER thing Trump and his Epstein cronies violated.
Oh we've got him now boys!
Rofl
But Kamala laughed funny.
That and a coordinated voter suppression campaign that ramped up massively in 2024.
.
Imagine if this was the reason he finally goes to jail
.
Yeah no kidding.
He doesn’t care. He’s going to keep breaking laws until held accountable and nobody has the balls to actually do that.
We won’t live long enough for face consequences so in effect he doesn’t have any.
The fuck does "balls" have to do with it?
Either you're a complete fucking moron about what can and cannot be done to stop him, or you're calling for violence against him as a way to change this, which makes you a different kind of complete fucking moron.
Allegedly you say?
Guy who controls the cops and has absolute immunity for any crime he commits according to the Supreme Court commits another crime.
I’m sure the architect of project 2025 will bring down the hammer on him.
So you know what I thought was particularly outrageous? Those Israel superbowl ads. I don't understand how a foreign country was allowed to buy propaganda airtime in the United States. They've run so many ads. Is our government just defunct? We are persecuting night time comedians for Talarico interviews but propaganda gets green lit.
I don’t understand how a foreign country was allowed to buy propaganda airtime in the United States
One hint: $
They keep pushing. Their entire premise is that the President has absolute power and authority. They keep doing these things to… prove it. If nobody says NO, he indeed has the authority to do this.
I thought america told itself it hated kings. I know they never really did as they go way over the top for the president., like their enaguration is a crowing ceremony basically.
Nearly everything he does violates at least one law.
we have anti-propaganda laws?
It helps to know the following when reading news nowadays.
Allegedly = It absolutely is true but we don’t have the money for a counter suit from billionaires
Wait a minute. You mean to tell me conservatives are engaging in fascism?!
Whaaaaaaaa????
Operation Mockingbird was over fifty years ago. Fake news is older than you think; we orchestrate events at home and abroad to allow the news to report on it in certain ways and shape public opinion. We're sneaky like that in the CIA.
Well looks like Wednesday to me.
So just charge him. Oh, wait, the SCOTUS sez you can't do that.
So, anyways...
Oh c'mon, those are more like "suggestions" than actual laws.
NOTHING. WILL. HAPPEN. BECAUSE. AMERICANS. DO. NOTHING.
Just fyi, this here, this comment you’ve made, is extremely helpful. Thank you 🙏
I'm sure the democratic politician will send a very stern letter. Or maybe even sit silently with a sign saying "I don't like what he is doing".
I mean, what more could you possibly expect anyone to do in the face of fascism?
Not disagreeing
However, you do understand that it has like 12 times the population while also being slightly larger than Australia?
Well I look at the national debt, once that implodes people might start organizing. I don't think we are gonna manage our way out of it
That's so unfair and obviously not true. They do so much.
They consume. Like a lot. They keep repeating: we can't really do anything about it. That takes at least some effort. They ignore reality so hard, which can't be easy at this point.
