Donald Trump would have been convicted of crimes over his failed attempt to cling to power in 2020 if he had not won the presidential election in 2024, according to the special counsel who investigated him.
Jack Smith’s report (***the report is 174 pages long) detailing his team’s findings about Trump’s efforts to subvert democracy was released by the justice department early on Tuesday.
Following the insurrection on 6 January, 2021, Smith was appointed as special counsel to investigate Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election. His investigation culminated in a detailed report, submitted to the attorney general, Merrick Garland.
Volume one of the report meticulously outlines Trump’s actions, including his efforts to pressure state officials, assemble alternate electors and encourage supporters to protest against the election results.
IDK why you are downvoted, maybe it’s the double negative?
But just to make it clear, keep from losing = winning.
So corrected for double negative:
And yes I agree completely, it’s insane he even had a chance, and it says a LOT about the American society as a whole is mentally ill.
Not everybody, but enough to make it a systemic problem throughout everything in society. It must be hell to live in USA as a normal person!
Thanks, yeah I’m not sure. Maybe my wording is confusing… it’s early here. And I’m pissed. I don’t want to live in a world where a person is rewarded heartily for being all the horrible shitty things we were all taught not to be. It almost feels like morality was invented to keep everyone from having the balls to lash out against these absolute sociopath types.
Americans are indoctrinated with values of individual freedom to a degree where Malignant narcissism has become a virtue, and it shows throughout all aspects of society.
Everything that benefit common good is demonized. Like food stamps, social welfare, healthcare for all, protection of minorities, lack of union rights, insane gun rights, and abolishing free abortion, and even sex education.
It’s in everything American in society, and USA is so far removed from other developed countries it’s more like a very poor developing country in many aspects.
It’s all about oppressing the non privileged, to give more privileges to the already privileged.
Now people are even getting away with claiming slavery wasn’t so bad!!
You’re right. It’s sold as “believe X if you like freedom” when the reality is “believe X to keep the rich’s boot on your neck, necessarily decreasing freedom”. It’s not a freedom for your kid to die by a school shooter, but somehow millions believe it is.
Looks like you also got a downvote for your helpful reply for whatever reason. How people vote on this site is one of those things I’ll never understand.
Yes but the post I responded to completely turned around. So that’s fine for me. Probably someone thought my comment wasn’t necessary, but obviously it was for some, since it changed the voting both instantly and completely.
