Doesn't really eliminate the possibility permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] victorz@lemmy.world 40 points 1 year ago (6 children) Well that's not how we do things. Evidence first. We don't convict like fascists would. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 year ago (5 children) 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. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (4 children) 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!" permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (3 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. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children) Yeah, I can't help but disagree for principle reasons. Present evidence, convict. If he yells fake news, so be it. Still convicted. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago* (1 child) 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. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago Probably 😭 permalink fedilink source parent [–] pyre@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago* he's been very open about how much he'd like to... do things... to Ivanka. permalink fedilink source parent
