So... if his supporters stay in the voting booth, they cant deposit their vote, and the votes of the people in the QUEUE behind them wont be counted either.

Of course it will give him an excuse as to why he lost. How dare the CIA hire fake supporters to stay in voting booths.

FBI.

McFarland and the FBI posted that the DC pipe bomber is still at large, and a yuge number of fake accountspeople replied the FBI knows who it was-one of their agents. Yeah, that narrative keeps coming up. The FBI is behind everything.

If they knew how inept the FBI can be they would move on to blaming some other agency.

The inability to learn is one of the distinguishing features of that crowd. Despite ample evidence that the FBI/Soros/Italian spy satellites are incapable of the nefarious acts ascribed to them, the believers continue to spout their nonsense.

Of course, you're right, the FBI. I have failed the masters of Moron-fu.

Trump claims Civil War didn't have to happen: "You could've negotiated that ... this is something that could've been negotiated ... that was a tough one for our country ... if you negotiated it, you probably wouldn't even know who Abraham Lincoln was ... that would've been okay"

If Trump had lived during the slave years, he would have owned dozens of slaves. He would have raped the teenage girls and sold them once they hit 20. He would have been the worst example possible for a slave owner and certainly never would have negotiated a deal to eliminate slavery in the United States.

Wasn't he also a modern time slave owner, with numbers of undocumented workers at his goldf clubs? I seem once he decided to run for presidency many lost their jobs at the golf courses. I seem to remember Bedminster was specially mentioned once the Secret Servicde had to vet the location for the alternate Summer WH.

Donald Trump did not sign Illinois pledge not to overthrow government
Former president sidestepped signing state’s loyalty oath, which opponents Nikki Haley and Chris Christie also have not signed

Joe Biden’s 2024 election campaign has lambasted former president and most likely Republican opponent Donald Trump for failing to sign a loyalty oath in the state of Illinois, in which candidates pledge against advocating an overthrow of the government.

The Biden campaign was responding to an investigation by Illinois news outlets WBEZ and the Chicago Sun-Times, which reported that Trump sidestepped signing the McCarthy era voluntary pledge that is part of the midwestern state’s package of ballot-access paperwork submitted by 2024 electoral candidates last week.

That omission came days before the third anniversary of the January 6 insurrection, for which Trump has been indicted for his alleged role in efforts to overturn Biden’s 2020 election victory. It’s a departure from 2016 and 2020, when Trump signed the voluntary oath.

Donald Trump Issues Ominous Threat to Joe Biden

https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-j ... us-1858526

Donald Trump warned President Joe Biden he could face a weaponized Department of Justice if he doesn't receive immunity.

Confirming he would be attending an appeals court hearing on his immunity this week, Trump said on his social media platform, Truth Social, that some of the political issues facing the Biden administration would be enough to earn him a criminal prosecution after his presidency.

"With the Border Invasion and Afghanistan Surrender, alone, not to mention the Millions of dollars that went into his "pockets" with money from foreign countries, Joe would be ripe for Indictment," Trump said.

Biden has faced criticism for the handling of the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan in August 2021 and the issue of migrants at the southern border. Trump also claims Biden benefited from his son's business dealings and pocketed cash from foreign countries during his time as vice president.

There is no evidence to back that up, nor any suggestion Biden has committed any criminal wrongdoing as president.

So is he claiming that criming while president is allowed for both him and Biden? Shades of Richard Nixon.

No, just him.

Crimes that Biden has committed are entirely different, because, well, because. Biden is not entitled to immunity because he is not named Trump.

Also, too, the "crimes" that tfg lists for Biden fall within the perimeter of his official duties anyway. Other than the money from China, which is Not Really A Thing.

Even if SCOTUS rules that the president enjoys absolute immunity for every single thing he/she does, whether related to their official duties, the R's and the MAGAts will continue to call for the prosecution of Biden,

As I said, its different. Don't ask how it is different, it just is.

[Rolodex]

I wish Jordan Klepper would ask his Trump interviewees about this - why trump has absolute immunity but Biden doesn't. I need to hear their whack-a-doodle "explanation."

Biden didn’t win the presidency in 2020.

as if the former guy never "weaponized his DOJ" to take actions against oponents, better ask Bill Barr.

GasBuddy finds not one single station in our database of ~150,000 gas stations at $8 per gallon.

Trump says gas is $8 a gallon.

How do MAGAts reconcile reality at the pump with what tfg is telling them?

The cultists are big purveyors of sekrit information (ob. "being suppressed by the media") as well hearsay anecdotes (i.e., rumors; "my buddy's cousin said....").

Haven't been California lately, but I was in NYC last week and it was under $4 a gallon there, I even paid under $3 on LI!

[Rolodex]

I have a PHEV so I don't pay attention since I rarely buy gas, but I checked the interwebz and gas prices I found here in LA (Lower Alabama) are a about $2.50 - $2.60. Lowest it's been in a while, I think.

[much ado]

Highest price I can find in my neighborhood of the SF Bay Area is $5.40 at an Arco, lowest in same area is $4.20 at a Speedway. Nothing near $8.

[Maybenaut]

$2.99 here in the Virginia Hinterlands. That’s down from the typical $3.29.
