“The report, which is expected to be available to the public shortly after lawmakers have access, brings to an end a chapter in American history that saw, for the first time, a former president indicted on federal charges only to go on and be re-elected and, in a few days, returned to power. Trump fought to keep the report secret, but last-minute requests to prohibit the release were refused.”

    Honestly why does he care if it comes out? He was elected despite his actions which means his voters simply do not care that he tried to do this. It is more important to them that their guy wins than any criminality surrounding it. This will be taught in schools for years to come.

    Those who didn’t vote for him and most of the rest of the world already think it was despicable.

    "Donald Trump didn’t incite a mob to try to forcibly stay in power…

    … and if he did it wasn’t his fault because they misinterpreted his words…

    …and if they didn’t, he didn’t really mean it…

    … and if he did it was only because the election was stolen from him so he was justified…

    … and if it wasn’t Trump was a good president and deserved to stay in power as he did a lot of good when in office…

    … and Iif he wasn’t then at least he was a better candidate than Joe Biden…

    …and if he wasn’t he’s a good business man and will be good for the economy and my tax bill…

    …and if he isn’t at least he tells me what I want to hear"

      It’s not because he’s afraid of MAGA turning on him. It’s just because of his psychopathic ego. He simply can’t stand anyone saying he’s anything but perfect. Everything he does is great in his broken mind and he can’t suffer being talked about in any other way.

        This makes me happy then. Perhaps that’s not the right word for it, but there’s at least a tinge of satisfaction knowing that fuckface is gonna lose some sleep over this
