It’s called election interference. Merry Christmas

Donald Trump, like Charlie Brown before him, simply cannot get into the Christmas spirit.

On Monday — Christmas Day — Mr Trump expressed he was having a difficult time enjoying the holiday. The reason? Joe Biden.

“It’s hard to have a truly great Christmas when you have a Crooked and Incompetent President who wants to put his Political Opponent in jail, and who has been working hard (for a change!), illegally using all of the levers of Law Enforcement, to do so,” he wrote on Truth Social. “We are in the fight of our lives to save our Country from MADNESS & DOOM. MAGA 2024!!!”

Mr Trump’s sour sentiment was not posted in isolation. The former president spent most of Christmas Eve posting through his frustration at the various criminal cases he’s facing, the 6 January committee, and a recent Colorado decision to kick him off the state’s ballot.

    I’m always impressed at the people who think that:

    The president can do whatever the fuck he wants

    Joe Biden, the president, cannot prosecute Donald Trump

    It’s a wild pair of thoughts to hold.

      Gone on for decades -

      Democratic presidents are crazed lunatics running totally unchecked free of oversight by any and everybody,

      Republican presidents are poor abused babies who just want to do their job but congress exists specifically for the sole reason of shaking a finger at him for 4-8 years.

      Reminds me of one of Umberto Ecos definitions in Ur-Facism:

      The enemy is both strong and weak. “By a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus, the enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak.”
