On social media and web forums, users called for jurors, judges and prosecutors to be killed after the former president was found guilty on 34 felony counts.
These are the same republicans who are still clutching their pearls for Bill Clinton getting a consensual BJ.
Sleeping with a pornstar while cheating on your 3rd wife, then paying off said pornstar to interfere with the election outcomes? - republicans see no crime there.
I really hate when people call it consensual. There's no reason to downplay how fucking creepy the power and balance of that interaction was. Doesn't do anyone any good to pretend like a sexual predator isn't a sexual predator.
If you aren't Monica Lewinsky, I'm not really interested in hearing your opinion about the consent. She's more than capable of talking about her agency in that interaction, on her own. It's too bad she's never talked ab--
Talking about it in these terms makes it seem like she's just a puppet. She's a person, and she made choices. (Which she regrets, but she still owns that she made those choices.)

I remember sooooo many Republicans/cons at the time that were losing their mud over it. Red-faced, yelling, they would honestly say that he should be in front of a firing squad. They'd say this kind of thing out loud.
I remember asking one I knew quite well more about this - asking what law he broke, asking if it was actually illegal to get a blowjob from someone not your wife. Their response: "But it should be illegal!!!" They were so angry at this point that they were beet red, and it was pretty much the end of the conversation - they were essentially speechless.
All the cons were, and still are, apoplectic over Clinton getting some head from someone not his wife. Just ask some old con you know.
For some weird reason, they don't seem to remember or care about Newt doing the exact same thing. And now, of course, they could GAF about Ronald McDonald banging a porn star, paying her off and covering that up, violating many actual laws.
They are not. Those were conservatives. They still exist as the more “moderate” right. You hear them pipe up against “the excessive flow of migrants,” and label transgender support as “inappropriate bedroom behavior.”
These are MAGA Republicans or far-right Trump loyalists that will do anything to see their choice of dictator reign supreme.
State court, so whatever special court security plus NYPD. That's just protecting. The use of telephone or internet to make threats puts FBI in the mix.
I like to play fun little game matching Trumpanzees' hypocrisies to the exact analogous situation. I already used "lock her up" to match the classified documents felonies. I think I'd use something else to match this one, like something about them screeching over "terrorists" "flooding" across the border. They are the terrorists and always were.
FBI needs to start rounding all these fuckers up and lock them away. I hope we see thousands of these idiots in prison cells before November. Keep talking shit and making threats! The "Deep State" is coming for you!
We've needed some of that deep state to be monitoring and disrupting maga terrorist cells for some time now. I'd really like to see some of that.
But DHS gave an honest assessment of the real domestic terrorist threat (the right wing) at the tail end of the Dumbya regime, and the Republicans freaked the hell out about it.
Good luck. These people live on Manhattan. The downtown ones might have doormen. The uptown ones might live in a building with non-white people, possibly with doormen too.
Trump supporters won't last a few hours without someone telling them to go fuck themselves back to Topeka.
Someone posted a gif of that punch the other day, but they skipped over the portion where he is lying face down on the pavement. The longer gif really adds some depth to it.
