This, IMO, is why Democrats don't accomplish their objectives, despite getting a majority of the vote.  They need to play hardball.

I've advocated for democrats to play by the same rules as republicans for years, plus democrats are weak when negotiating with republicans. give the party of uncompromising fascists some of their own medicine and then end run the political relics of tyranny that stand in the way of effecting the changes that the majority of americans want. my first targets would be the wealthy, corporate, and religious groups that benefit most from the radical right.

and it is STUPID !

The majority has been getting shafted by the GOP far longer than they should have been, or was ever required. 
The Republicans' have proven (without doubt) that they are the preferred Party for the wealthy, big  pHarmy, Oil Companies( yep, one of trailer park valedictorian Trumps' favorites), The Military Industrial Complex, Russia's' Putin,, lil' Kim, Xio,  & far too many other lowlifes to mention. nd all as they attempt to co-mingle church and State, a place i hate , while effectively dumbing down our country and it's Republican Constituents.

Changing the rules for when it bests works for they, to not allow a vacancy filled in the Court, oh so non Supremeslip , then totally not obliging by their stated ways when it's their turn. 

They play hardball, why the Dems seem to play with themselves.

This submissive passive bull ship, is what has this country sinkin faster than the Russian Navy in the Black and Blue See nothing makes a mountain, of supposedly mental misfits, till fits taken the next size down 

The Far Right and Fox pushing BS 24/7 leaves US just a little South of Heaven, in the parking lot of a nasty 7/11     eghteen hours a day and WaWa'n about it   all the Fckn weigh down they due US, so lets get that bus, rolling, right over they, The American Way !

First of all, in the 3 and a half years of the Biden presidency every wet dream the far left ever had was accomplished.

As far as who goes high and who goes low, you seem to have once again forgotten what President Trump did as President.

A top Donald Trump transition adviser, Kellyanne Conway, said Tuesday that the president-elect would not honor his pledge to have his Justice Department go after Hillary Clinton.

“I think when the president-elect … tells you before he’s even inaugurated that he doesn’t wish to pursue these charges, it sends a very strong message” to congressional Republicans, Conway  said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”


Trump won’t try to prosecute Clinton after all, aide says (yahoo.com)


He never did go after her. James Comey ran a sham investigation in which the person who destroyed the tapes under subpoena for her got immunity. Comey then refused to bring charges, which wasn't even his call to do.

In every election since & including the 2016 election it has been the democrats who have gone low and real low.

  • used the oval office to enrich himself and his family
  • attempted to undermine US election integrity with the big lie
  • conspired to subvert the results of a free and fair election after his re-election loss
  • attempted to incite an insurrection and obstruct the peaceful transition of power
  • did nothing to stop the J6 insurrection for over 3 hours despite pleas from family members and advisors
  • willfully retained classified scif documents during his term and didn't return them
  • facilitated more partisan division in america since the civil war to benefit himself financially

2.1.1  Sean Treacy  replied to  sandy-2021492 @2.1    6 months ago

From a certified Trump basher:

  The charges against Trump are obscure, and nearly entirely unprecedented. In fact,  no state prosecutor  — in New York, or Wyoming, or anywhere — has ever charged federal election laws as a direct or predicate state crime, against anyone, for anything. None. Ever. Even putting aside the specifics of election law, the Manhattan DA itself  almost never  brings any case in which falsification of business records is the only charge.

Standing alone, falsification charges would have been mere misdemeanors under New York law, which posed two problems for the DA. First, nobody cares about a misdemeanor, and it would be laughable to bring the first-ever charge against a former president for a trifling offense that falls within the same technical criminal classification as  shoplifting  a Snapple and a bag of Cheetos from a bodega. Second, the  statute of limitations  on a misdemeanor — two years — likely has long expired on Trump’s conduct, which dates to 2016 and 2017.

So, to inflate the charges up to the  lowest-level felony (Class E, on a scale of Class A through E) — and to electroshock them back to life within the longer felony statute of limitations — the DA alleged that the falsification of business records was committed “with intent to commit another crime.” \

I n these key respects, the charges against Trump aren’t just unusual. They’re bespoke, seemingly crafted individually for the former president and nobody else.

Can't go lower than that... NY started with the man and then found the crime to get him.  A base perversion of justice.

He committed the crime, Sean (actually, crimes).  He committed them to further another crime.  Trump is unusually criminal, and that's not the DA's fault.

You know, it strikes me that your objection isn't that you think he's innocent.  You don't even try to deny that he's a criminal.  You just object to the way in which he got caught.

Why is that?

The FEC, the subject matter experts, investigated and had no issue with his actions.  NDA's aren't illegal.  Not wanting to talk about things that make you look bad isn't illegal.  

Why is that?

I believe the law should be applied equally to all people.  When Hillary Clinton pays a foreign spy to create a fake story about Trump (talk about going low)  and then illegally, per the FEC,  falsely reports it as "legal expenses" and isn't charged with the same "crimes," it stinks to high hell.  

Do you think the District Attorney's job is start with a crime and try to solve it or start with  a person and try and find a crime to pin on them? Because the DA obviously started with Trump and looked for a crime, bringing Beria's maxim to America. 

As I've said, anyone who reads the New Yorker piece and isn't troubled by the prosecution's methods has no claim on being an actual liberal or supporting the rule of law, they are just partisan who embrace the authoritarian tactic of charging opposition leaders with "crimes" that only apply to the opposition leader.

[] What a [] great week.

The prosecution's theory has been misrepresented by progressives for weeks on end.

First, they falsely claimed the second crime was identified in the indictment despite having the indictment posted dozens of times.

I and others, have spent weeks pointing that out.

Then they identified the wrong crime as the second crime.

Again, the correct allegation was pointed out numerous times,only to be ignored. (

Finally, days after the trial, after an own goal is scored by one of their own proving me right, I get accused of "ignoring" the correct crime. It's farce.

That it's taken weeks for progressives here to finally identify the second specific crime Trump was charged with shows just how ludicrous amd "low" this prosecution is. The leading candidate for President charged by a partisan prosecutor in front of a partisan judge under a theory that was so obscure their own side couldn't even get it right until days after the trial. A perfect example of my point that this exemplifies the authoritarian tactic of charging opposition leaders with "crimes" that only apply to the opposition leader.

You need it explained, again? I'll let someone else  do it. 

In 2016, Hillary Clinton’s campaign was fined $8,000 for violating federal campaign finance laws. Why? Her team falsely reported the funding of the Steele Dossier as “legal services” and “legal and compliance consulting.” Actually this “opposition research” was an attempt to smear her opponent with false and salacious allegations. Obviously, it was also intended to influence the 2016 election. Moreover, Hillary’s campaign was headquartered in New York State (out of Brooklyn, NY), which would make it fall under the jurisdiction of New York Penal Law §175.10, the state law which makes it a felony to falsify business records with the intent to conceal the commission of a crime. What is the key distinction between Hillary’s campaign violation versus recent news? With Hillary’s violation, there wasn’t a Manhattan prosecutor politically motivated to bring an unprecedented case to trial.

The only difference is Hillary actually committed a federal election crime. Donald trump didnt, despite the judge allowing cohen to tell the jury he did
