Hopefully justice will prevail. As expected, the crooks in office are denying his guilt... reuters.com
Let us not allow history to repeat itself! Take note of the uncanny resemblance between Trump's Jan 6th attempted coup, and that of Hilter's Beer Hall Putsch.

The US has had a wrecking ball swinging towards it and smacking up against it since trump took center stage.
I believe he is a clear and present danger to the safety and security of the nation.
I can not understand how many people cheer him on and support him. It's creepy and scary. WTH is wrong with these people? I don't get it.
If anyone can make me understand could you please explain it to me? Thank you.

Her decision in the earlier instance was overturned by a higher court, where she was harshly/publicly criticized for her earlier ruling. I think that will put her under close scrutiny and extreme pressure to follow the rule of law and handle the case impartially this time out.

Most cults are cultivated and headed by sociopathic con artists.

The only explanation I can come up with is that it is cult-like. Most cults are cultivated and headed by sociopathic con artists. Trump is very similar to a Jim Jones. Why do people follow someone who is as corrupt, narcissistic, and damaging to democracy as him? His cult is made up of... Evangelicals. The churches have two central political issues driving money to their collection plates. Abortion and LGBTQ. As long as they screech from the pulpits about how Republicans are saving the lives of babies and preserving traditional marriage... and the congregants believe every word from the pulpit is inspired by their god... those congregants will look past the sexual assault, lying, stealing, etc. "Rednecks". The backwoods, uneducated love the 2nd Amendment issues. They love the sexual inuendoes. They laugh as he makes fun of the handicapped. He's "just like them. The cousin-marrying, NASCAR lovin', lifted 4-wheel drive truck owners are a large majority white supremacists. They are easily made believe the white race will soon be marginalized by 'them thar furiners'. They have no issue with interfamily marriage. They have no issue with girls being taken in marriage in their young teens. They've been raised watching Dukes of Hazard and spending every spare minute at the local male-only bar. Zillionaires. The biggest force is the money from the ultra-wealthy electing Republican candidates. Republicans are in office due to large campaign contributions... and ongoing perks of cash, trips, wining and dining... by these mega millionaires. As are return, the Republicans drive tax breaks for the wealthy and subsidies for large corporations. The wealthy will support the churches, hence being hugged by the evangelicals. And, the wealthy will easily convince the uneducated white population trickle-down economics is the reason they are able to drive the big trucks, have relatively modern trailer homes, and have money to spend on beer, cigarettes, and the occasional tryst with the local barmaid. I believe those three segments of the U.S. population drive Republicans to the polls, convince their cultists to fly the confederate flags from their jacked up trucks, and shout from the rooftops that Trump is "their kind of guy".

True! All true. Scary but true. Trump might be their guy but if a Democrat behaved the way he does the reps would be all over him/her like a fly on poop. You know this is true.
