Why a plea bargain with the TFG is nearly impossible.

Lots of us have wondered if a bargain could be struck that would have TFG permanently exiting politics, disappearing from the public eye, and generally STFU in exchange for no prosecution.


Ah, no. TFG is a complete sociopath who would renege on any bargain in a heartbeat. Then what? Litigate that? Besides, what prosecutor could make a case for letting TFG go with any bargain given what we know now?

Maybe if ritual suicide is part of the deal.

If 40% of Americans think that TFG is God's Instrument and...

...40% think he's Putin's asset, how does this not end in civil war?

(Numbers are somewhat arbitrary.)

Right now, DOJ can either indict/prosecute/incarcerate, or....

... just hand TFG the keys to the White House.

Given the public disclosures so far, there don't seem to be any other choices available.

Why do MAGAts even have TV sets?

Given their complete indifference to the disclosures of massively illegal acts being perpetrated in Merde-a-Lardo, they'd do just as well with a statue of TFG in their living room and spend their evenings kissing its feet.

Lock. Him. Up.

The idea that some investigation will uncover some spectacularly smelly act by TFG that will cause his supporters to flee from him is a dead horse and we need to stop beating it.

Do what's necessary to put him and his cronies literally behind bars and to confiscate their assets. And don't be all damn day about it.

Medical question:

Would an OB/GYN in a forced-birth state be reluctant to induce labor because some of the meds typically used (oxytocin) are also sometimes used in abortions?

I've decided to ghost my Trumpite sibs.

They live in their own community with their own reality, their own media, their own facts, their own morality, and their own logic. I can see no benefit in dialog anymore with someone who thinks a serving of incoherent word salad heavily dressed with mendacity is somehow a discussion.

I give up.

A pro-lifer I know is scheduled for some much-needed orthopedic surgery,

I have this mad urge to get a temporary restraining order stopping the surgery because of some 13th century jurisprudence that says it's against the natural order to cut into bones.

See how he likes it.

Before you write a long explanation of how this is not possible, remember I did say it was mad.

This is a rant: At this point in time are there any Trump supporters who aren't full-blown Nazis?

Seriously, why not just be done with pretense already and don brown shirts and swastika armbands.

Should men in antiabortion states start using period-tracker apps?

Y'know. Flood the channels with noise.
