The Republican's campaign said it raised $34.8 million from small-dollar donors in less than seven hours following the historic verdict Thursday afternoon.
The part where he said his trial was rigged was where I got really worried.
He is taking every possible opportunity to dismantle the foundation of this country for his own self interests and his “lock her up” cult followers are eating it up. They believe him over the facts, precedents, science, and laws. They believe these universal truths are “rigged”.
Meanwhile, his own appointed judge is presiding over another of his cases who may actually be interfering with it.
I’m pretty open to taking a step back and looking at things from both sides. Your political affiliation doesn’t explicitly mean you’re impervious to propaganda or brainwashing. Although, it’s apparent one group is more weak minded and unbothered by the larger scope of their actions. I find these people to be immoral and self-righteous and disgusting and I’m embarrassed as an American to be associated with them. It’s not easy to be comfortable with strangers out in public these days.
I genuinely believe most of us mostly want the same things. Corporations and politicians have divided us and created the polarization for their benefit. We have to even the playing field. We need Ranked Choice Voting. We need to fund elections exclusively with tax payer dollars.
So, the silver lining I’m hoping for is that after this inevitable civil war, we can make elections truly democratic.

Denying the election and encouraging a failed insurrection was where I realized this was our last chance. If Trump gets elected again he’s going to do everything he’s been promising and threatening. He’ll make Project 2025 a reality and the United States will never see another real election again prior to a civil war. And honestly, we haven’t seen a fascist dictatorship be overturned by it’s populace before. We’ve only seen outside forces overthrow it and there aren’t any that could pose a threat to the US.
If Trump wins the election in November, America is done. Probably forever, or until it collapses from within as Russia is threatening to do.
Hopefully I’m just overwhelmed with the news cycle but it seems like people really don’t care much about intellectualism. This country has been on an anti-intellectualism path for a decade or more. If people don’t care to know stuff, how can we progress?
This group has been told over and over that what they believe is factually untrue. You can point at the sky and explain it’s blue and offer the scientific explanation for it being blue yet they will claim that it’s red with no evidence at all (just that the pillow guy says so). This used to be a fringe group and I totally get that a small segment of the population has particular perspectives but the fact that it’s becoming common place is just mind bending. I don’t understand how people can be shown facts and continue to lie to themselves. How hurt can you be? How prevalent is mental instability? What could we possibly do to make people feel better and give a crap about themselves and their communities?

I think it might already be done.

At least since Reagan.
