The president-elect had plenty of time to come up with a compelling response to the special counsel's findings. He did not spend that time wisely.

Summary

Special Counsel Jack Smith’s report on Trump’s election interference case, released by the Justice Department, details Trump’s attempts to retain power after losing the election.

Trump responded with late-night social media posts, calling Smith “deranged,” spreading falsehoods about destroyed evidence, and claiming a 2020 election “landslide” victory.

Despite having time to prepare a response, Trump’s reaction consisted of late-night tweets filled with lies and falsehoods.

    Why wait until he is dead then if you aren’t concerned with the consequences?

    I mean he might not hold still but, who knows?

      You’ll never believe this, but they don’t guard corpses to the same degree as live people.

        Ok? So your big talk about facing off against armed guards and such was more like “but there won’t be any. And if they do exist they will be sad low paid lackeys that I can give a hard time.” ?

        If it makes you feel better to talk big on the internet, please don’t let me piss in your cornflakes.

          You’re unusually invested in this public bathroom thread. How much does it mean to you that I do or don’t do these things?

            Lol, oh no, you discovered my deepest fetish.

            Only… You’ve posted more than me? So… And you are the one who brought it up. And it’s not a public bathroom thread?.. Or it wasn’t until your comment… Hmmm…

            But frankly, if you successfully shat on Donald Trump while he was still alive and in office, I mean… Fetishes come from somewhere… You could introduce a whole new generation to it!
