"Of course Donald Trump is guilty.

The outcome was predetermined from the beginning.

A Soros funded DA who campaigned on getting Donald Trump teamed up with Biden's top guy at the DOJ and invented a crime out of thin air, elevating what is normally a misdemeanor to a felony despite lowering 60% of felonies for actual criminals.

They recruited a jury of liberal Trump haters in one of the most liberal jurisdictions in America and went to a Democrat activist/Biden donor judge who completely rigged the trial in their favor. Not to mention the fact that his daughter was raising money for Democrat politicians off the trial.

But despite having criminal charges that made no sense, despite having committed no crime, despite having a lead witness who is a convicted perjurer, and despite the jury not even being unanimous on the underlying crime, Trump is now guilty.

But really he's only guilty of one thing: Being Donald Trump.

Trump is guilty with having the audacity to run for president, be winning in the polls, and being a threat to the power centers of America.

They're taking him out via corrupt lawfare because they are scared that he will win.

Well the rubicon has been crossed. This is no longer America. This is a communist banana republic."

Just about the best summary I've come across.

Just for AC, who thinks China's economy is going gangbusters....

>>AC writes rather incongruously "I know Trump didn't start any wars.
I just don't get the feeling Trump will be any better this time."
He won't do any better than not starting any wars? How much better than that can he get? I know that for some he's a warmonger and the facts don't matter.
He didn't start any wars last time, but he'll have to do a lot better than that this time!! Sheesh!<<

- Yes its does look like a kind of stupid comment I made on the face value of it.

I suppose I'm thinking to myself that the problems with America aren't going to be fixed with one President.
More than likely the only thing the Democrats and Republicans will ever agree on are things that will lead to WWIII.
Yes, Donald Trump didn't start any wars, but he didn't clean out the swamp, he became a part of it.
Maybe the real truth is that America can't be fixed.
I don't see that he's any more of a solution to the problems than he is just as much a part of the problem.

I don't support sanctions and overthrows.
Case in question: Venezuela.
Did the U.S try to oust Maduro and install their puppet ruler Juan Guaido?
Did Trump not sanction Venezuela and create a situation that lead to Venezuelans starving and eating cats and dogs?

'Rising numbers of desperate people are eating dogs, with prisoners eating rats'

This is how America treats the world.
It talks all this bs, about humanitarianism, but it creates the problems.
Americans bitching because foreigners invading their southern border
- Well who fecked all those countries and made the people leave?
Over in Israel / Palestine - it's providing the weapons to keep the genocide going.

Venezuela could be a thriving nation.
Trump criticises 3rd world shitholes.
But he's a part of the establishment that helps creates them.

And it's no wonder the world wants out.
It's no wonder they're all lining up to do business with Russia and China.
It's no wonder the US is losing influence.
It's no wonder they're all lining up to join BRICS.

The US is fighting and all or nothing battle and you know why?
- Because it might soon find itself on the opposite end of international sanctions.

Calling Trump - ant-war is a dishonest pitch.

We're told that Trump massively escalated the country's
existing wars in multiple theatres leading to sky-rocketing
casualties.

The following link explains:

http://foreignpolicy.com/2023/04/18/donald-trump-anti-imperialist-militarism-war/

1) In Afghanistan he substantially upped the amount of air-
strikes.

2) In Yemen he escalated both the US counter-terrorism
activities and support for the devastating Saudi led war
against the Houthis.

3) According to the UK's Bureau of Investigative Journalism
there were 2,243 drone-strikes in just the first 2 years of
Trump's presidency compared with 1,878 in the eight years
of the Obama Administration.

Then Trump also came very close to a nuclear war with North
Korea and the list goes on.

However. There's more to this man's shameful behaviour.

And those of us who honour our war dead and their families
every ANZAC DAY will find the following abhorrent:

The Atlantic tells us that the former US president has
repeatedly disparaged the intelligence serving members. Even
though they are prepared to die in defending him. Trump has
asked that wounded veterans be kept out of military parades.

According to The Atlantic, when Trump cancelled a visit to
the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery near Paris in 2018 he
blamed rain saying his helicopter couldn't fly and that the
Secret Service couldn't drive him there.

None of this The Atlantic says was true.

We're told that Trump rejected the idea of the visit (due to
conversations witnessed) because his hair would get disheveled
in the rain, and because he did not believe it was important
to honour America's war dead.

Trump was quoted as saying:

"Why would I go to the cemetery? It's filled with "losers."

In a separate conversation Trump referred to the
more than 1,800 marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood
as "suckers" for getting killed.

Why would anyone defend this man or vote for him to be their
country's leader?
