    What’s interesting to me is that sedition and treason are acts against the state, not any particular representative of the state. But he’s clearly thinking he is the state, not just a representative. L’État, c’est moi much?

      Yeah. He’s made many comments in the past where it’s quite clear he views himself as king, anything he views as against the State is against him, anything he wants is what the State wants.

        He also responded to the latest No Kings protest with a video of himself wearing a crown flying a jet and dropping shit on the protesters.

      That’s crazy. You think Trump’s ego would override his dogged commitment to Constitutional Principles and Democratic Norms? I just feel like this is a bridge to far, even for me, a staunch and outspoken liberal pundit.

      You’ll never win the next election if you don’t tone the far-left rhetoric way down and only say things you can prove beyond a reasonable doubt in a criminal court of law. That’s why you need to sit down, shut up, and support Liz Cheney in 2028.

        lmao I still can’t believe liberals aren’t a parody of themselves.

        Do nothing for 2 years and don’t say anything too spicy, that’s how you fight fascism!

    That’s because his health itself is seditious and treasonous. If he’d just hurry up and succumb to his decades-long suicide by cheeseburger, that’d stand out as his one and only act of patriotism.

    So I guess you and fox news were committing treason daily when talking about Biden day after day during his presidency?

    Oh that’s right, the rules only apply to other people…

      If it wasn’t for talking nonsense about Biden’s health (and Hillary’s too) I’m not sure the the Faux Cinematic Universe even had any other content for certain periods of time…

      I’m sure Trump will smirk at that, knowing Biden had him dead to rights for four long years and never pulled the trigger.

      He also learned a poor people word - “groceries”. Apparently he never realized that was a thing and is still somewhat perplexed by the idea.

        In the process, he provides some truly hilarious ( unintentionally, of course, and his idiotic marks don’t seem to understand just how stupid their hero is) moments by going on to explain these things to others as if they are children and he’s some brilliant teacher, and all because dumbass just learned something 15 minutes ago.

    Poor bastard will try everything to stave off the inevitable until one day the tug on his mortal coil becomes too great and Death himself drags his wretched, calloused soul into eternal oblivion.
