I didn't say anything about a payment either.

Do you have a source for Trump paying off the j6 protesters?

The issue over his crimes are whether they're actually federal crimes or not.

Nope, see others commenting below.

And my point was, you can't be surprised that conservatives turn around and do what the left does to them when they have the chance to. That's why I was so against Dems ousting Trump supporters from their jobs, because I knew they would turn around and do the same if/when they had the chance.

It's why we have to be very careful about any laws we pass when Dems are in power. Power will always swing back to Republicans at some point, and you're fucking crazy if you think they're not going to use those same laws to repress their political opponents

I mean, he attempted a coup in the same way Biden sent that kid to shoot Trump a few days ago.

You know what's more of a threat to democracy? Trying to imprison a political opponent.

I wasn't. The economy was far better and we didn't start any new wars.

I did read project 2025, but Trump has already said that's not his aim or connect to him. He does have an agenda, but it's not that one

Yeah, as a joke. Context matters. Like how I don't think Biden meant he wanted some to shoot trump when he said "put a bullseye on him".

I thought that trump supporters were Nazis and liked that trump was like Hitler, so what do you mean?

Also when I run they bounce in a constrained manor.

Not only is it terrible, it's an actual threat to democracy.

I don't know how anyone is surprised though. When you use words like "Nazi" and "existential threat" and "threat to our democracy" it can't be a shock when someone tries to become a historic hero for taking out the supposed next Hitler, and people who buy into that propaganda language are going to cheer them on and want more of it. They're frothing at the mouth, imagining they're on the right side of history.

I get what the Dems are trying to do with pushing that language, but it really is playing with fire. It was a 50/50 chance that they could get him ineligible to run, alive or dead, and they've lost each bet.
