He's denigrated and belittled Nancy Pelosi from day 1 and now we learn, she took over as Commander in Chief on 1/6 and stole his thunder. She's the heroine, he's the fool.

(9,245 posts)I couldn't BE happier that Alexandra Pelosi filmed what went on - ESPECIALLY the part where Pelosi DID what Scalise and other MAGAts said she didn't do: CALL FOR THE NATIONAL GUARD. It's RIGHT THERE. We got VIDEO. It wasn't even her responsibility to do this. TRUMP should have done it but he was too busy enjoying the terrorist attack on our capitol that HE incited. AND he has committed espionage. HOW IS IT THAT Trump -- after ALL HE HAS DONE -- is STILL ALLOWED to have his name on any ballot anywhere for anything in this country?
HOW?

(16,410 posts)And Nancy damned well knew it, and so did Chuck and all the other Dems, which was why she took over. And thank whatever gods may be that she did, too. If she hadn't, who knows how much worse it would have gotten and how would many have been murdered on the spot by those marauding maniacs before help arrived, if Nancy and the others hadn't started working the phones when they did.
Trump is lower than dirt for siccing those shitweasels on our nation's Capitol. Lower than slime mold, lower than the putrid crud between Steve Bannon's filthy toes. Compared to Trump, the contents of a cesspool looks like precious jewels and smells like gardenias. He IS filth, slime, and putrefaction all rolled up in one hideously revolting package!

As I was writing about Nancy and the others making those phone calls, it suddenly hit me full force just how close the Bloated Tick came to getting her and a lot of other people murderered in cold blood, and (even worse) how happy it would have made him if he'd succeeded. It was nothing I didn't already know, of course, but seeing that video made me FEEL it in a whole new way. And that made me see and FEEL how incredibly evil he is more sharply and clearly than ever before.
I am positive that he would literally have been thrilled to see Pence swing from that gallows and suffused with glee if Nancy and any of the other Dems had been tortured and murdered. I'm not sure if I was fully convinced of that before, but I sure am now.

(7,263 posts)He is a monster.
And I know what you are saying - he scares the living crap out of me, as far as what mean, hurtful, nasty thing he will do next.
I just thank the stars he is also as stupid and incompetent as he is fat and smelly and creepy.
And I rarely call another human being 'stupid'.

Asked myself the same thing. For espionage he should be doing
hard time. That turncoat FBI agent got 3 llife ssentences at ADX
Florence CO. Now that would be a fitting place for Alex Jones and
TFG sharing a cell. DOJ must be building a slam dunk case against
Drumffh,lets hope. 23hrs a day locked in a cell ,sans reading material
Or Tv. A fate worse than death ,Im sure.

(584 posts)Which gives me an idea. Maybe Alcatraz could be recommissioned so the "Orange-comb-over-man-baby" can have his own private island to die on.
I've heard that Alcatraz has the type of weather that traitors deserve.

But I like the idea of TFG in a cell that's not even large enough for his golf cart.

(50,559 posts)The cellhouse at Alcatraz has three levels. The bottom one, which is at ground level, is open to the public. The top two are closed to public access. The mess hall is still there but all the kitchen equipment has been removed. The shower facility still exists - I got a small laugh when I learned that Alcatraz' shower room soap dishes are just galvanized electrical boxes, like you'd install switches and outlets in. The control room still exists but the equipment has been removed. (Yes, while I was visiting Alcatraz I was thinking all the time of what it would take to turn the place back into a functional prison and put Trump in it.)
Here's what I'm thinking. There are enough cells on the top two tiers to hold the entire Trump administration plus the leadership of the various militias that did the dirty work on January 6th and the Members of Congress that were most closely involved in the insurrection planning, like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert. Installing a freight elevator wouldn't be a huge problem. A large commercial kitchen could be installed, and as a bonus they could take reservations so those of us on the outside could buy and enjoy a Real Prison Lunch or a Real Prison Dinner. With proper pricing of these meals it is conceivable Trump's incarceration could turn a profit for the government. Prisoners are required by federal law to receive one hour outdoors per day, and this could be done before tourists are allowed on the island. They'd almost certainly have to put a new water heater in because the old one is...well, really old...and new ones would be much more efficient. Electricity isn't a problem; the whole facility has it right now. The prison gift shop would remain, and add t-shirts with Trump behind bars to their inventory. Alcatraz had a Federal Prison Industries shop on its premises; this could be reopened although moving the prisoners to it would require a bit of crowd control to separate the guests from the inmates as the latter were marched from the cellhouse to the workshops.
With a little judicious planning Alcatraz could both house the Trump Administration and continue with its current educational mission. It's a win for everyone.
Plus...Alcatraz has a library. There aren't any books in it right now because there are no prisoners there. They could EASILY construct the Trump Presidential Library in that space, explaining how someone went from Bad Businessman and Worse President to Doing Life In Alcatraz in only four short years.
But here's the bonus. The Member of Congress he despises most lives in San Francisco. You do understand just what being locked up in Nancy Pelosi's district is going to do to the bastard's mental health, and how glorious it will be to think about it.

(584 posts)The thought of an orange man in a orange jump suit, while surreal, makes me smile like a goon.
I was just hoping that there would be enough room on the island for the rest of the family.
I have to admit that having Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert becoming "celly's" is genius.

(291 posts)The cell that he occupies has at least one side that is transparent glass, so visitors can look at him and mock him mercilessly.
jmowreader
(50,559 posts)How about a cell with no ceiling, under a cell open to the public that has a curtain over the door for privacy? For five bucks you can go into the top cell. We'll have funnels available for women who want to go in.

(6,536 posts)Pence or Pelosi to be murdered. He held on for as long as he could stretch it. "His people" couldn't get to them, so he was thwarted. I have always thought this. He was sitting there watching, waiting to hear of the murder of an opponent. And, he was the fricking pResident. A piece of utter trash.
He better be indicted. I swear to Gawd, Garland better get him. I remember how disappointed we were when Mueller didn't get him. That will pale in comparison to what we will do or say if the DOJ doesn't indict him. He deserves to be in jail for the rest of his life.

(2,256 posts)He has bullied his way through the entirety of adult life getting what he wants at any and all costs. How anyone cannot see the evil in him is unimaginable. One can only explain it as 'takes one to know one'. It's frickin' scary knowing millions of people think he was a good president.

(17,984 posts)That,as soon as Nancy announced the Guard was coming Scalise called Trump and told him to call off the mob. Thenhe comes out this week, said Nancy did nothing. Pelosi s daughter showed Scalise to be a liar. He was in the picture.
