The Presidency of Donald J. Trump, Episode XIV: T-minus 97 Hours

I mean I’ve been pumped about seeing him whine on twitter after he was out of office for months, but I was wrong. I even knew violence was likely, but I didn’t really put two and two together. Even after he was out of office it was likely he would have continued to incite violence on these platforms.

Though now though I think if he tries to do that on Fox they will basically black list him. No idea about OAN/Newsmax. Depends on the pressure they get from the cable networks.

I mean, I don’t really do much except teach them right from wrong. There’s a ton more political conversation in my house now than there was when I was a kid, which keeps them up to date (my daughter isn’t really interested). My boy has a great sense of humor, which is fun when we sit there and create our own dialogue for the Georgia runoff ads (DO YOU WANT TO ELECT A BLACK AND A JEW?).

Wonder if the FBI would arrest them, charge them with trespassing, and let them go?

He says he hesitated. He says he felt the need to go inside to share his views with Congress but wanted to consult God first. He prayed aloud: “Lord, is this the right thing to do? Is this what I need to do?” He says he felt God’s hand on his back, pushing him forward.

“I checked with the Lord,” he says. “I checked with Him three times. I never heard a ‘No.’”

Exactly the stuff Islamic extremists say. If we succeed it is because God willed it.

Are you sure it doesn’t feel more like the 1850s and Trump is as polarizing as slavery? A bunch of Republicans are trying to find their Compromise of 1850 and kick the reckoning down the road. We shouldn’t let them.

Yeah but their “god” isn’t The One True God like ours. So it’s totally different.

I know it’ll never happen but it’d be fun if the Biden admin started poking around to find out how the hell she got an Einstein visa.

Trump probably would support her getting deported though.
