General Trump hilarity free-for-all thread

[tyrannosaurus vex]

Of course you know this means the acquittal is now a sure thing in fact, and not just in expectation. Romney wouldn't be casting this vote otherwise.

I think he might.  Just the things he has done has made him a mortal enemy of Donald Trump and his base.

Besides, we already knew the acquittal was a sure thing.  We always knew that.

In related news, Collins has returned to lap dog mode and will be voting to acquit, while Doug Jones of all people will be voting to convict.

It would be hilarious if the GOP got its signals crossed, and one too many people accidentally vote to convict.


But this is decisively not the best of all possible worlds, so I'm not holding my breath.

Susan Collins is like a splinter that keeps getting wedged farther and farther underneath every one of my fingernails simultaneously.

He's making a bold wager that in 2028, Trump voters will be somewhat embarrassed with what they did in 2016-2024, and take another swing as a supposedly "Principled Republican" candidate.

Doesn't make up for him being a Mormon. 🤷 Like, my county voted blue in 2012 for the first time since the Southern Strategy bc we hate Mormons here more than black folks.

Bolton played things a little TOO close to his vest and now he is marked for death by El Presidente.

Trump acquitted on both charges, 57-43.

[Cain]

No surprises, just weary resignation.

[Juana]

Yep. We all knew it was a performance from the start.

[Cain]

Maybe they'll flip the Senate...but it doesn't seem likely.

[Bruno]

Yep. We all knew it was a performance from the start.

I think the point of it was to get the Republicans to roll around in Trump's shit and tell us how much they like it.

So... mission accomplished, I guess.

EDIT:  VIDEO LINK DELETED.

Bruno, next time put a NSFW warning on that.  Not fucking kidding.

It was for me.  I just wanted them to say the quiet parts out loud.
