Comment on Donald Trump's sentencing was postponed to after the election to avoid any assistance of election interference. Can he be sentenced while he is President Elect?

  “A fundamental principle of American democracy is that when we lose an election, we accept the results. That principle, as much as any other, distinguishes democracy from monarchy or tyranny. And anyone who seeks the public trust must honor it.”

  Please watch her speech.

    She’s preaching to the choir. We know this. The people who voted for trump don’t give a fuck.

    Flowery words coming from someone who now lives in a tyrannic monarchy.

      No, just a monarchy. As much as it pains me to say it, it’s actually not “tyrannic” because the electorate legitimately voted for it.

      I almost wish Trump had actually lost and then stolen power. At least that would’ve made some sort of sense!

        Not “tyrannic” yet, but Project 2025 is 3 months away.

    No. Fuck her. We put all our hope in to her and she utterly failed us all, even the cultists whether they’re smart enough to know it or not. At this point I wouldn’t piss on her if she were on fire.

    I was upset when Kerry conceded, this is a whole other level. People are going to die that wouldn’t have otherwise and her cowardice at calling out the bullshit tactics the extremists said flat out they’d use to secure power places that at her feet. She didn’t even fucking try. Basis were burned, found in a fucking sewer. That isn’t democracy.

    If you can’t see that you need to pay more attention.

      You guys failed yourselves by not coming out to vote.

        You really think that’s the cause when ballots were found stuffed in to a storm drain? Really?

      I didn’t put any hopes in her. She turned out exactly as I projected.

  Preach. Fuck Kamela. She’s just as responsible for the death of democracy as everyone who voted Trump, voted 3rd Party, or didn’t vote at all. She’s willing to just throw in the towel and let democracy die. So fuck her.
