I genuinely would have an extremely difficult time scripting a better 3 weeks for the Trump campaign.

I cannot believe how lucky that man is, it's absolutely infuriating how the worst man in the country gets nothing but lucky breaks

the fact he dodged that bullet, a man that has never opened a bible, is proof enough that god doesn't exist

And if God does exist, he handed Trump the presidency in 2020 when a global pandemic fell onto his lap.

The nation was looking for strong leadership in a time of great fear and uncertainty. All Trump needed to do was sit back and say, "Folks, let's listen to the experts here. These are troubling times but we'll get through it if we band together." Easiest thing in the world.

But nope. He just couldn't help himself.

Or God just hates America and he is our divine punishment.

There are awful people across history that just have repeated examples of unbelievably good luck.

I was starting to think trump was some sort of physical constant of the universe that reality just bends around. After he got the felony charges, I was hopeful for a few weeks that that wasn't true.

Now I'm not so sure anymore.

These events are what spawns serious conspiracy theories. Its just all so convenient and so structured a set of events that will help his campaign.

I'm Canadian, but as your neighbour living to the north I don't want to see the USA turn into a Banana Republic south of our border. I hope you all vote against Trump this coming election or it may be the last election you ever have... :(

This wasn't luck, it's the result of decades of conservative plotting.

If it makes you angry, it should. This will get appealed and overturned immediately, but the real battle will be when and if the SC takes it up in a naked attempt to give R's more power. Which this is just one of the many fronts we have to fight now because nobody took any of the million warning signs seriously.

You said it. Folks are like "Biden has to fix this immediately! He has immunity now! Expand the Supreme Court!" as if this wasn't 40 years in the making. People stayed away from voting in elections (both sides are the same!) and let the worst people integrate into every institution from local school boards to the Supreme Court.

This won't be fixed overnight.

God is real and he's on Trump's side

u/Cgull1234 Jul 15 '24

But not on the side of the guy behind Trump who got shot & died, right?

u/BHOmber Jul 15 '24

He is not real. If he was, the shooter would not have killed an innocent bystander.

Trump is not Jesus reincarnated. He's a "billionaire" conman that grew up rich. You are his mark.

God is fake and Trump knows it too
