    I mean he still kinda is. He walked in, took the mugshot, paid his cash bail, and walked out. He didn’t spend any meaningful time in jail. Only poor people who can’t afford their bail spend time in jail.

    With those red eyes either he didn’t sleep or he’s been aggressively crying, both of which I’d be very happy about

    Do you genuinely think that an American billionaire ex president with a seething, delusional fan base, and as of august 2023, no prohibition from being elected, is not above the law? He’s not going to be spending time with gangsters and killers. He’s gonna be very protected by the state.

    He’s not like Bernie Madoff or Elizabeth Holmes who screwed a ton of rich people. It’s not happening. His underlings could get sentenced though, but Trump will have some special bullshit order and he’ll be free.

    Honestly, while the humor and memes might seem amusing, it’s important to recognize that this is precisely what they want. By making the situation seem ridiculous, we risk diverting attention from the serious and substantial allegations against Trump.

    We shouldn’t allow them to manipulate the narrative and trivialize the issues at hand. Their intention is to downplay the gravity through memes and laughter, while the actual impact on global democracy is a significant concern.

    Stay focused on the real issues and their implications.
