A Perfectly Reasonable Amount of Schadenfreude about Things Happening to Trump & His Enablers (Part 2)

But he’s a billionaire!

“OK, so he riled up the mob, which then stormed the Capitol, called for my death, erected a gallows and drove me and my Secret Service bodyguards temporarily into hiding. And he did nothing for hours to stop them, and then praised them as “great people.” OK, granted. But y’know… these things happen.”

Very encouraging for Dems nationwide.

So either he’s been lying about being a billionaire, or he’s lying about needing cash. I know he just posted $5M in NY in lieu of posting a bond, but I find it hard to believe he doesn’t have a few million dollars in liquid assets laying around.

“This is a really big deal,” said Mark Graul, a Republican strategist who ran George W. Bush’s 2004 reelection campaign in Wisconsin. “What Democrats are doing in Dane County is truly making it impossible for Republicans to win a statewide race.”

Chickens coming home to roost comes to mind.

Damn those Democrats and there plan to >checks notes< support policies that actually appeal to the voters!

I know. How can you beat that except to lie more and repress them?

And change the rules to make it harder to vote.

Can’t have abortions if you want to molest children.

“Groom in the womb.”

The Republicans are really the embodiment of the saying, “Whoever smelt it dealt it.”

Well, it’s classic projection. They judge others by their own actions.

Couldn’t he sell some of them … documents? You know, for a quick buck?

You’d think Jared and Ivanka could help him out with some of that $2 Billion they got from Saudi Arabia.

Haha. Just kidding.

Hi Dad, I see you thrashing there in the water. Here, have an anvil. Toss.

Perfect! A cartoon ending for a cartoon person.

A Colorado man convicted together with Steve Bannon and other nice people last year of conspiring to defraud people who donated money to build the border wall championed by tanTrump is to be sentenced today in Federal District Court in Manhattan. I hope someone reports on the outcome. Gift NYT article. Quote from the article:

“Mr. Shea is a very good man who succumbed to some bad activity because he was carried away with the prospect of making a really big income,” wrote his lawyer, Thomas H. Nooter.

It is not recorded whether the lawyer wrote this with tears in his eyes and whether those tears, if there were any, were from laughter. But arguing that greed is an extenuanting circumstance for a financial crime is curious to say the least. It’s like stating that being a sex maniac is an extenuating circumstance in a case of rape. What kind of lawyer would… oh! I see. Sorry, carry on.

Yeah, that’s a head-scratcher for sure. “Sure, my client shot a lot of people, but he was just motivated to really use his AR-15…”

Sure, my client killed his neighbor, but he really really hated him…

My client is normally not someone who would commit this kind of crime, but you see, he really wanted to.
