He's a hack, i was shocked his place on the supreme court was blocked as he was basically a compromise candidate to appease the GOP. He has no backbone or desire to take on the GOP, I would be shocked if Trump faces any real consequences outside of barring him from running next time around.No matter what these hearings reveal, the DoJ is not going to do anything. This is becoming abundantly clear. Merrick Garland is asleep at the wheel and has no intention of rocking the boat by actually doing his job.
The tape of Trump on the phone to Brad Raffensperger is enough evidence alone, as far as I'm concerned. The fact that nothing has been done about it 18 months later proves that the DoJ has no interest in this entire affair.
You’d think wouldn’t you but he just seems to squirm out of it all the time.Today's testimony should be enough for the DoJ to start prosecution of the former president.
America is truly broken. It’s the world’s biggest cult, it’s like some form of mass psychosis, he’s not very clever, he’s not very handsome it really is hard to see what they are falling for.
I think that was true but sadly the way his split the nation the cult of trump wasn’t just resigned to the Deep South either."They" aren't. He lost the popular vote in 2016, and lost in 2021.
As I've said before trying to sum up all American's with these blanket statements, is like make the same statement about Europeans. Other than a flag and a common language there's very little that someone from say a metropolis in California will have in common with someone from rural Iowa say.

I was at a triple A game a few years ago on Long Island and I spotted a few people with the token red MAGA hats on.
So his support did come bizarrely from all states.
Yes I agree with that.That's not my point, my point is you can not make statements (as often seen on this board) like "Americans are stupid", as the cultural differences across the country mean there's no such thing as a "typical American" only a series of stereotypes who bear little in common with each
Of course it did, no state was exclusively red or blue, and even liberal states like CA have their republican areas (the central valley as an example).

Plus a few blokes wearing a MAGA hat in Trumps home state, 10 miles from where he grew up, isn't really the gotcha you think it is.
I agree sweeping statements aren't helpful and many Americans I've met are amongst the most emphatic and intelligent people I know, but it's hard to get past the fact that nearly 75 million people voted for an openly rascist, misogynistic bully who boasts about tax evasion and sexually assaulting women and advocates drinking bleach to cure covid.
That’s true but our parliamentary system is some what skewed as well as in reality you only ever vote for your MP never the PM unless he’s your MP.In a population of over 300 million.
We have our own idiots here too...
That’s true but our parliamentary system is some what skewed as well as in reality you only ever vote for your MP never the PM unless he’s your MP.
This is why the PM can be changed mid term with no further election required as all you vote for is the MP and ergo the party.
So a Tory voter could argue they are voting for their great local MP and not boris and in reality that’s true.
BUT in a US presidential election EVERY voter knows that they are voting 100% for trump or not there’s no ambiguity or related factors it’s clear as it can be a you are voting to put that man in the White House not his party or his policies THAT man.
And as said 75 million people did that knowing who they were electing.
That’s worrying.
It's a fact that Trump has created, probably deliberately, a more divided and fractured America.I agree sweeping statements aren't helpful and many Americans I've met are amongst the most emphatic and intelligent people I know, but it's hard to get past the fact that nearly 75 million people voted for an openly rascist, misogynistic bully who boasts about tax evasion and sexually assaulting women and advocates drinking bleach to cure covid.
I get that but unlike here where we have the concept of the shy tories at election times.I didn't call out anyone voting directly for 'Boris'.
Has anyone been following this even in snippets as some of the revelation are insane.
Seriously how is Trump not in prison.
behave yourself. Boris is a Poundshop Trump.But It’s nothing like boris. Nothing at all.
Not every thing is about blo jo.
Aaagh I give uphard core support, he would be having a crack at the Uk version of Roe vs Wade as we speak.
