I'm convinced that Trump is a child rapist, but this picture isn't the smoking gun. They're in a NYC restaurant and the kids are his own, Ivanka and Eric maybe.

... Doesn't really eliminate the possibility

Well that's not how we do things. Evidence first. We don't convict like fascists would.

I'm being honest here, if I had the opportunity to convict and imprison the Tangerine TurdNugget I'd do it immediately, without a seconds thought. And with zero guilt afterwards.

Hell, on the contrary, I'd feel absolutely elated about what I did every single day of the rest of my life. And I'm not even american.

I mean... I agree, to some extent. But it's much more satisfying to watch the convicted scum squirm in front of the presented evidence. Otherwise they can just yell, "Innocent!"

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Normally I would say the same, however, the americans who can get that to happen and the charges to stick are too cowardly to do it.
And it seems that most of the us population is too lazy and/or complacent to actually do anything about him.
Plus, let's face it, he'll just scream "witch-hunt", "fake news" and "I'm innocent" even if there was irrefutable video evidence of every single crime he ever committed.

So it's about going to extremes and the extreme is to just jail the fucking cunt and be done with it.

Yeah, I can't help but disagree for principle reasons. Present evidence, convict. If he yells fake news, so be it. Still convicted.

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Fair point, though neither will happen. I will never get the power to convict and the us population won't do it.
So, in the end, he wins.
