Didn't Trump just have a meeting with his probation officer where he had to confirm he wasn't associating with criminals?

Lmao what exactly does he bring to trump's campaign? The dude is a waste of space/time/life.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

He seems to do a pretty good job creating rage media. Trump needs the hype and Bannon runs the shit shop.

Maybe it should be the opposite. The waitress at Denny's is not exactly in a position of power so keeping them out of jail is no great risk to the public. Someone working on a campaign for president, and presumably could hold a White House position, is far more dangerous. The degree of power is the degree it should be regulated.

That's why he needs to be in prison, in the cell right next to Trump.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 4 months ago

Lock him the FUCK UP.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago

Stick that bastard down the deepest pit available so frump can go downwith him

"Keep me out of prison so I can be allowed the opportunity to do the same kinds of shit that got me in this pickle in the first place"

Yet another lawsuit they're queuing up for why Trump lost again.

Employment is not a preclusion to imprisonment. If he wanted to stay out of prison maybe he should think about that before breaking the law and ignoring a congressional subpoena. If he didn't want it to happen during an election why did he appeal for 2 years first?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Because he wanted it to happen during the campaign/election. They're doing this shit on purpose.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago

That's a bingo.

"I'm guilty of things I did to help Trump last time he was in office, and I should be let off because I'm instrumental in helping Trump get into office again".

[–] [email protected] 17 points 4 months ago

Oh, Stevie NO! You can't go to prison. You've got culture war to pedal. We need you spreading bullshit and getting people angry. How can you do that if you can't be on your stupid little podcast? STEVIE!

[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 months ago

Maybe he should have thought about that before committing crimes.

"We recognize that you need to be close to Trump, so we will allow you to be his bunkmate."

Imagine waking up to that turd every single day for years. Melania is an idiot to waste her life with him. But she deserves it.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

I almost felt sorry for her when I saw her facial expressions change the way they do when Donald looks at her then looks away and she looks so unhappy to put up with him... then I remembered that she knew what she signed up for and deserves all the misery she experiences being married to that bloviating fool.
