Ain't it just hilarious how the Democrats are using coordinated Soviet style 
show trials to try to save the Zombie and Chief's perverted hide? Yeah, 
that's real "democracy" in action. Be proud of your slimy party. Be very 
proud. Oh, and Biden is too senile to be tried for hoarding classified 
documents, don't you know. His son is paragon of virtue, there was no 
illegal shenanigans in Ukraine or China, just a lot of money for the "big 
guy" somehow, somewhere. (No mystery there, Biden has somehow become rich a 
lifetime leach... err "public servant." The court thing is not working, 
they've made Trump into a martyr. Democrat stupidity backfiring on them. I 
sincerely doubt that the senile Pervert and Chief will actually run in the 
general election. He's too much of a liability.

But that leaves us with Trump, so what do we really gain?

By the way, does anyone have any clue, any clue at all, what law Trump 
supposedly broke in the hush trial? Have the Democrats even figured out what 
they're charging him with? — or do they even have to bother seeing as this 
is a Soviet-style show trial?
