This is why I want him tried for manslaughter - people died Jan 6 - "“For hours on January 6, Donald Trump did absolutely nothing to stop the violence, killing, and potential assassination of his own Vice President."

I noticed no one is speaking about the officer who had multiple brain bleeds from being hit in the head. Who did that? Horrible what they did to him and others.

David Jones's avatar

I'd like to see him prosecuted for the 500,000 people who died due to his corrupt, incompetent response to the covid epidemic.

Pam Solomon's avatar

PLEASE let this be the smoking gun. If he isn't stopped soon, he never will be.

I heard that Putin is trying to help him. I guess like he did in 2016. I call Donald's election the Putin's President. I know some American traitors helped, but it was mostly Putin. I want them to investigate why in 2015 all the good Cyber Department employees started leaving knowing the 2016 was around the corner.

Kathryn Zaremski's avatar

I completely agree with your theory! I think Putin has been grooming Trump for decades for this current role. It doesn't take any brains to realize Trump's loyalty to Putin over his own Intelligence Dept. says it all. Then add that Putin has financed Trump's lifestyle for at least a decade, possibly more. Eric admitted this to a WSJ writer while playing golf one day. The Stupid Apple doesn't fall far from the Even-Stupider Tree! Trump deserves Eric! So ya, I want to know details about Cambridge Analytica and similar activities that literally brain-washed an entire segment of society through use of algorhythms on line combined with focused propoganda. Russia was relentless on social media in general. It won Trump the Presidency. I just don't want to see them do it again, but how do we stop them?

Putin is smart, cunning, and ruthless. t***p, AKA The Felony Defendant™, is stupid, weak, vain, and easily manipulated by anyone who flatters him enough. It's a match as old as time. Ever since there were strong rulers and weak adversaries. This history has persisted through the ages but in this era of instantaneous dissemination of (dis)information it's taken on a new dimension. Putin knows this. The Felony Defendant™ never will figure out he's been played like a fiddle. But let's give him a whole lot of time in prison to ruminate on it.

How about the rest of his life?

Zach Weingart's avatar

That works. It might even convince me that he should live more years than I've hoped he would.

We stop them witcontinue. Dem turnout on election day (to void any third party threats) and relelentlessly, aggressively pounding the truth: that MAGA and the GOP are a threat to everything that really did make America great.

Its only way. Hatred wins at social media and very often with the mainstream media and this won't change. More oligarchs and billionaires support fascism with their $. We're outgunned at multiple levels. But NOT at the ballot box.

Trump won't be in jail, he'll file endless appeals against any convictions that do occur (and probably only GA will see a conviction before November 2024)

BUT, MAGA and the GOP IS a loser at the ballot box, since 2018, and this trend will continue.

Theresa O'Neil Kessler's avatar

They should jail him in the meantime! My son is a correction officer...ANYBODY is jailed while waiting repeal is the normal! They should not treat him any differently either!

Kathryn Zaremski's avatar

Uh, they WON the 2024 election and the bafoon is now POTUS, so they did beat us last time. WE MUST FIGHT to defeat him and his gang at all costs!

I'm so sorry you are living on Earth 2 with the MAGA crowd led by your cult leader, DJT. If you were living on Earth 1 with the sane people who believe in science, facts vs alterative facts/lies,decency,Rule of LAW and other American traditions and institutions we've long revered, you'd understand immediately who the "fools" are and where they reside. Sorry, but IMO, you are on the WRONG side of this matter!

Put down the Big Gulp of TraitorAid and seek your place in reality.

Joelle Reedy's avatar

Thank you Mary Trump, for all you do.

Elaine H's avatar

Thank you, Mary, from your lips to Gods ears. Please, please, please let his be the smoking gun. Absolutely terrified to have him back in the Oval Office, the country will never be the same.

Joyce Marie Hand's avatar

Fear not. We are still a Nation Under GOD. We have to ask. Deliver us from Evil Lord.

Anna Vinson's avatar

Your comment is part of the problem. Never have we been a nation under God. We are nation of One out of many.

E PLURIBUS UNUM

Dee Walsh's avatar

Interesting with some historical accuracy but unclear attempt at the God Spin. But it's nice to know we are on the same side of truthful reality in this particular instance.

Kathryn Zaremski's avatar

I'm not one for preaching, especially to the choir, but although I agree we need Dems VOTING in MASS numbers for Blue down ballot in 2024, prayers never hurt and have never failed yet. I'd go for BOTH!

Joyce Marie Hand's avatar

Anna, thank you for your comment. Bless you,

I hear you.

Yes, some of the Churches have mislead us, because they themselves have been mislead.

Going back when Constantine, the not-so-great took over the Church. Not only did he steal the identity of Jesus and Mary to match his color, but lied about the people in the African Continent. One of his Popes started spreading the lie that people of color were less than human and barbarians. Now, that gave them the excuse to kill, steal, destroy families, tribes, kidnapped, rape, plunder the art and treasures and more. This also was the beginning of the slave trade. Anyway, I said that to make a point.

The Almighty is 100% in control. Before we come to Earth, we are given a choice about what we want to learn. No one dies. Yes, like do we die when we get out of our cars? No, so it's the same thing. Yes, hard to believe, but it is true. We are spirits learning on Earth. While on Earth we need what is called a body. In Genesis it tells us what we should put in our bodies, fruits & vegetables.

We are to take care of creatures and not to kill and eat them. Would you put burger in your car?

Same thing.

Anyway, pray to your Heavenly Father who created you and sent you to Earth to deliver us from this evil.

There is only one creator who is called by many names.

Linda White's avatar

Lady. This is an intelligent discussion among adults, not a bible story for naive children.

Leave your preaching for Sunday School.

Kathleen's avatar

I think of the suicides too. As a result of the unimaginable terror they went through.

John Corstvet's avatar

Trump’s best defense might be that he’s not mentally competent to stand trial.

Rick Calegari's avatar

If that’s the case, then he's not mentally competent to run again let alone be anywhere near the Oval Office.

Joyce Marie Hand's avatar

Well, I think he has mental issues because he has gotten caught.

Mimi's avatar

Hod forbid! He must go to prison.

Scott Dworkin's avatar

Trump should legally be held responsible for everything that happened on January 6th. He’s the ringleader. The mob boss. And he deserves to rot in prison for the rest of his life.

Joyce Marie Hand's avatar

Yes, he is a Mob Boss, a Neo-Nazi, a greedy man and has become evil.

That's why prayer is the only way to defeat him. The Almighty must deliver us from this evil force.

Every state has a group of Neo-Nazi now. They are not allowed in Germany, so why are they allowed here to kill, steal, and destroy?

Mary Ellen Gambutti's avatar

Crowd size, like at the inauguration...He's out of his mind

Kathleen's avatar

I've asked this on Twitter many times & nobody ever replies with any theories. Maybe you will? I cannot figure out why Pence brought his family with him on January 6th when I am pretty darn certain he know what was coming at least as far as chaos and danger. Why did he endanger them too?

Joyce Marie Hand's avatar

I wasn't aware that his family was there. Hum...maybe he didn't know.

Kathleen Cross's avatar

He knew they all came because he asked them to. He is so guilty!!

Peter Benton's avatar

I hope this finishes him forever,he's just a wannabe tinpot fascist Dictator

Jean Morrow's avatar

Mary....this should be superb evidence for the jury!!

Charles Prince's avatar

During the trial, one hopes,and I'm glad that "he" wants it televised that Mr. Smith has the officers as well as the loved ones of the fallen officers testify

Joyce Marie Hand's avatar

I have not heard that. Great idea. I hope they do. I had a man on Twitter say to me that no one died on January 6. He said, give me a name. I gave it to him.

Where has he been? on Trump's social media? Listening to one lie after another. So sad.

Kathryn Zaremski's avatar

Well, the good news is TrumpSocial is about to go under financially, just like ALL his other business adventures, so THAT will remove another megaphone for the FATORANGEGUY! I s'pose he'll switch over to X, formerly known as Twitter as soon as his own social media goes kapoot!

Kay's avatar

But they don’t want him on tv playing to his cult.

BC's avatar

The man's his own worst enemy. "The people thought the election was rigged." Well sure, because you, Republicans, and right wing media told them it was stolen day after day, hour after hour, minute after minute, until people were brainwashed into believing. trump destroys peoples' lives, takes their money, demands praise and loyalty, but will never reciprocate, is a narcissist, lacks empathy, therefore conscience, thinks violence makes one strong, yet is himself a coward. It sickens me what he has done to our country and the people in it. While never perfect, we never thought of the other political party as enemies. I'd like to go back to that, please. I never liked donald, but I had no idea how very, very flawed he actually is.

Kathryn Zaremski's avatar

Very few Americans had any idea how "very, very flawed" Trump actually is before 2016. AFTER 2016, anyone who isn't aware of how dangerous he is to our American way of life is either refusing to see TRUTH,or living under a rock. NO EXCUSE for claiming ignorance anymore!

John Corstvet's avatar

There was no excuse for claiming ignorance in 2015. Anyone that could read could see what Trump had been doing for the past 40 years. How could anyone believe that he could be anything other than a buffoon/scam artist as president?

Kathryn Zaremski's avatar

I think a great number of MAGA’s, like their leader, do NOT READ, and do NOT listen to anything but FoxNOTNews, OAN and other like-minded propaganda sites, so there’s THAT!

Joyce Marie Hand's avatar

Most of Donald's video's had hypnotic suggestions in them. Sad, but true.

We must pray and ask The Almighty to deliver us from this evil force.

We are honestly no match for an evil force.

Kathryn Zaremski's avatar

I don't believe in hypnotic suggestions, but I believe my own eyes, my own common sense, my own thinking. I believe in God, totally. I already asked The Almighty to deliver me from evil and the resounding response I got left such an impression, I have since ALWAYS KNOWN that God is right there the moment I TRUST in His Power, in His protection from Evil. But I'm also a firm believer in heart-felt prayer... to give me strength & courage to stand up and speak out and fight back and inform honestly. Prayers are GREAT!

Shabnam Mirchandani's avatar

The only Trump that should be president, if ever, is you dear Mary. Truth is elusive these days, and the ones sticking to it and voicing it are my heroes. Thank you.

DJT has wreaked havoc on the foundations of our country and its societal structures. My son (a diligent, hardworking young man doing two jobs) was subjected to an unprovoked attack on a subway while coming back from work a few months ago. He was grievously injured and it took a long time to heal from the trauma. The person viciously assaulting him first made the sign of the cross. For no fathomable reason. Did he think he was doing God's work by beating up a brown kid? What have we come to? What did he gain? The fallout was unimaginable pain and loss, as would have been the case for those defending the Capitol on that awful day.

This is the mega mentality. As you said, they equate strength with violence. People suffer needlessly as a result. My son's experience shook me and nearly broke me as a mother and person, who has been a pacifist all her life. Hard to feel hopeful in this environment, but that is where folks like you do such an immense service. You lift us up by calling truth to power. Thank you again.

Ronda Cress's avatar

Shabnam, I am so sorry to hear about what happened to your son. Sending wishes for healing, peace, and resolution to him, you, and the rest of your family. I can't imagine what it has been like or the hopelessness it creates (which of course, as you note, is the goal of those doing/speaking hate and violence), but please know there are people out there who support you/your son and condemn this behavior.

Shabnam Mirchandani's avatar

Thank you dear Rhonda. Your beautiful sentiment reflects your own giving heart. Healing, peace, and resolution are possible because of people like you, who care that a kid trying to make something of himself by the sweat of his brow ( he is a musician who believes the arts will save us) will prevail. It has been a struggle to quell the cries of my motherly heart and to learn from this moment. My son handled his ordeals with grit and grace. I have hope in young folks.

Joyce Marie Hand's avatar

We are in this together. I live in North Carolina with all the hate groups. My chocolate children, grands, and great grands have to watch their backs. Has to expect the unexpected. Watch where they go and always pray. I am so sorry about your son. I understand. We must all teach our children that we are on Earth to learn how to love unconditionally, no matter what.

Not easy. Not at all, but a must for the training on Earth. Accept, learn the lesson and move on.

Accepting everything as it is right now is so powerful. Please try it and teach your son and other people. Accepting is the first step to healing. I will pray for you, and your son.

Shabnam Mirchandani's avatar

Thank you Joyce, bless your kind heart. It is a harsh world out there, but there is also generosity of spirit - the kind that you exemplify. Your words are precious to me. I will also offer prayers for the safety and well being of your family

Thank you for your profound words, dear Lysa. My son is now ok, mercifully. He did not condemn his attacker, or rail against the system. He learned from this experience just how wounded people are, and how indoctrination can lead to dehumanization of anyone who looks different. He has the optimism and resilience of the young. I am grateful for that. My deep gratitude extends to the courageous Mary Trump, and people such as yourself who speak the universal language of love and humanity.

Donald must be a triumph cup for the prosecution team. They don't need to investigate, the defendent does a pretty good job for them.
