(21,853 posts)If they would just pass a bill saying I never parked illegally and that the cops who gave me tickets were all corrupt deep state operatives who rigged the entire Justice system against me, I would be grateful.
Not grateful enough to actually vote for or support them in any way, but it would be cool to tell all of my MAGA neighbors that, by an Act Of Congress, I am above them and any of their puny laws.

(25,517 posts)I also think that some of the justices on SCOTUS could conclude that Trump didn't commit insurrection. Thomas, certainly.

(37,415 posts)If you can't get it by earning it, it's OK to steal it. To say that it was not insurrection sows confusion among MAGAts.

Here's video of Marjorie Taylor Greene at the White House in late December 2020 saying she had a "great planning session for our January 6th objection. We aren't going to let this election be stolen by Joe Biden and the Democrats. Expel and arrest Greene.

Marjorie Taylor Greene says "get ready to fight for America tomorrow," the day before the attack, while in front of the US Capitol. Greene also says "Trump was re-elected," and that the Electoral College vote was "stolen." Expel immediately.

They are auditioning to be VP nominee. Nothing more.
