He does not know the difference between right and wrong. He has a criminal mind.
He needs to be prosecuted. Every day that goes by that he is not held accountable is another day of proof that some people are in fact above the law. And it is sickening.

such a thoroughly evil, barking mad, odious piece of human excrement. And the fact he still has any sort of following speaks to the incredibly racist, ignorant and low moral character of his trashy followers.

He wrote in the book "People of the Lie" that there were once considerations of creating diagnostic criteria for "evil" as a mental disorder.

Maybe the closest characterization we have is "Dark Triad" -- that includes narcissism, sociopathy and Machiavellianism. That is said to be the most dangerous combination in someone holding power over others.

illegal-sounding shit he's done.

In reality he knows nothing will happen to him over any of this. Maybe he ends up not being able to set foot in certain states otherwise he'll get extradited to GA to face a criminal charge ... where he'll never be convicted cause you can't find 12 jurors there w/o 1 or more being MAGAts who would do anything for him.

Course it's likely IMO that any attempt to prosecute him anywhere for anything he did as POTUS will end up at SCOTUS anyway.

Pastor of MLK's home church.

VOTING RIGHTS CHAMPION.

Donations are being sought to help Warnock fight this off tonight.

If you can donate, anyone, PLEASE DO and show support for Warnock against all that Trump represents.

I don’t know him, but I’m in regular touch with Jon Ossoff, and I’d like to keep that pair together.

he can't be indicted because there's no evidence he committed crimes (I'm constantly told here on DU).
