Thanks PoP for doing the heavy lifting.
Unfortunately, all in vain.

Also don't forget this lasting image from the Afghan surrender. What a waste.

There are people who don't think in any terms larger than what benefits them.
Ethics? Is that like pretending there is more than two genders. Supporting gender mutilation and drag queen shows for children?

For starters its not violating criminal statutes.

That's really pretty elementary. If you don't understand that I feel sorry for you.

You are part of the problem that still believes this circus.
Simply not true. Nobody has been pissing on the Constitution other than Donald Trump, who literally claimed we should terminate the Constitution and return him to power.

I never said anything about criminal statutes.

You mentioned ethics. So lets talk about ethics. Should we go on about the legal system being weaponized against political opponents like a third world country? How about destroying cities across the United States to protest for a felon with a criminal record longer than your arm? Is that ethical?

Control the media, as the left does, and you control the "Democracy".

And I'll mention something else - I don't care one iota about January 6th. Frankly I wish the mob had tarred and feathered most of Congress, they certainly deserved it. No one was even charged with an "insurrection", instead they have had to dig up centuries-old laws and used partisan DC juries to throw people who just walked around a bit and took pictures, into solitary confinement in a DC jail staffed with hostile abusive guards.

Nothing that happened that day or at any time during the Trump administration (allegedly or otherwise) is even in the same ballpark as what the left has done. Here's just a few:

- Tacitly encouraging (and certainly doing nothing to prevent) an ongoing mass invasion by the third world;
- Throwing ~$100 billon of US Tax dollars into a hole in the Ukraine;
- Weaponizing the justice system and intelligence agencies to stymie Trump with false narratives like RUSSIAN COLLUSION and two sham impeachments, starting before he even took office, destroying their credibility in the process;
- Throwing the book at J6 attendees while letting antifa/BLM slide even when they attacked the White House, failed, and settled on trying to torch a church across the street, or caused billions of dollars in damages to cities all over the country;
- Perpetrating a total fraud of useless and dangerous vaccines, harmful lockdowns, and other tactics to ruin Trump's roaring economy, line the pockets of big pharma, exert more control over the population, and distract from the fact that the virus leaked from a lab funded by the US Government;
- Clamping down as much as possible on free speech, pressuring social media companies to censor content that didn't fit the government narrative (of which a Federal Court just found them guilty of doing in violation of the Constitution);
- Burying the Hunter Biden laptop story in the weeks prior to the election because it contained politically inconvenient evidence that the Bidens are a long-established crime family who used their time under Obama to secure millions of payoffs via the corrupt Ukraine (which is why they impeached Trump for a harmless phone call - they feared the loss of their honeypot) and China;
- Sabotaging their own primary to screw over Bernie Sanders, who the establishment could not control;
- Pretending that Biden himself is fit for office when he's clearly in severe mental decline and things are being run by his staff consisting of... who knows?
- Fighting constantly for the "right" of children to mutilate themselves with life-altering "gender affirmation" surgeries, in some cases trying to override any efforts by parents to stop this or even find out that their children identify as another gender;
- Releasing violent criminals from jails, instituting no-cash bail laws, and selective prosecution from Soros-funded "soft on crime" DAs, which has directly lead to a massive surge of crime (along with police backing off doing anything since anytime they have to do their job there's a risk of a riot, show trial, and jail);
- Turning our military into a woke joke that will no doubt continue to lose every war they engage in, as they have since Korea);
- I could go on, but I doubt you're still reading.

Nevertheless, as bad as things have gotten, as a basic matter, I do not agree with attempts to save the US Empire from total destruction.

It’s just obviously better for the people, better for future generations, if the empire is ended, and the natural order is allowed to return. If the empire collapses, the government simply will not have the resources to maintain this charade. They will have to take their boot off of our necks. Presumably, at that point, a right-wing strongman will be able to seize control of the US government. Either that, or it breaks apart like the USSR. Either way, it’s better for us.

When the empire comes apart, most of these immigrants are going to just leave. Even people born here will return to their countries of origin when there is nothing left to steal. The transgender madness will be unsustainable. None of these agendas will be sustainable.

It’s all upsides, really.
Did you really expect me to read this unhinged manifesto? I stopped after reading that you don't give 1 iota about January 6th as you promote violence against our elected officials. That's all I need to know about you. The Party of Law and Order eh? Yeah you ain't fooling anyone, promoting violence is the opposite of Law and Order. History will be very unkind to the Trump supporter when they see words like this.

All you did was prove my point, so I thank you for that.

A deranged liberal shot up a Congressional softball game almost killing Republican member Scalise. Rep. Maxine Waters called on her supporters to publicly confront and harass members of the Trump administration. Liberals have gone to the homes of conservative Supreme Court judges.The list goes on and on.

I couldn't care less if you scrolled right by it without reading, and then hit the ignore button. I'm under no illusion that I could change your mind about anything, or that you could change mine. It's just high time for us all to go our separate ways. You can keep NYC and the other blue cesspit cities, if that helps soften the blow.

Two wrongs don't make a right. However, we are talking right now about Trump. I have noticed the right always wants to change the subject.
