If enough people close to him tell him he’s great he can pretend it’s real.
When he dies the infighting will be funny, but the justice will be satisfying.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

There's no justice in his death. Only an end to the madness. Justice would be him sharing a cell with his cronies, enablers, and bosses.
Justice will be received by his cronies after the collapse. See: Nuremberg. Note: hitlers absence
Yeah but that didn't happen till we got through the truly heinous shit.. I'm kinda hoping we still won't go that far.
Feels like you haven't seen the pictures out of El Salvador. The heinous shit has begun, and we should stop it before anyone else dies.
Should, but won't.
It’s already too far.
If it doesn’t go the distance we’re stuck here.
That only happened because half the world united to put and end to the Nazi madness and completely destroyed any bargaining power they had.
I don’t see that happening here. Best case scenario they are so thoroughly humiliated and discredited that they quietly creep off into the sunset. But I’m not sure I see that happening either, honestly.
Just want to point out that many "smaller" crimes (unlawful executions and such), took 10+ years to be investigated properly and there was also a blanket amnesty.
No. Justice would not be him in a cell getting 3 square meals a day. Justice would be him broke and alone, trying to survive out on the streets without any of the social services that he and his ilk are ripping away from people right now. Justice would be him getting by on what he can fish out of the dumpsters behind his favorite fast food joints.
I think you're conflating justice with karma, and in that sense you aren't wrong. Cosmic justice would be as you described, but that's not the pillar upon which civilization is founded. Justice is a function of society where humans try to impose a sense of fairness and order. Justice is a consistent and dispassionate. We tend to confuse justice with vengeance, and it's one of several critical causes of our current societal collapse.
That would be comeuppance... justice would be him just jailed... I on the other hand care little for justice I am tired of "they go low we go high" mentality... they go low I say you knee them in the face! Fucking cut all his funds and take a fucking thumb for good measure.
Just give him the Cromwell
Justice would've been him rotting in a cell after inciting an insurrection. This is full endorsement.
I can only hope I live long enough to see a 'The Death of Stalin' type movie about the Trump admin.
Again. This same event happened last term.
Recharging Trump's shitheadometer
A group of powerful old white dudes that butter their bread with "rape". Don't know what the prob is tbh /s
Why don't they just take turns sucking his dixk.
I mean, he is a reality TV star. Isn’t this how he lives?
