    The 2016 and 2024 US presidential elections have the same motto: "The objective is to delay the election of an opposing candidate as much as possible. The goal is to humiliate the opponent as much as possible to achieve the objective." In 2016, Donald Trump did not hesitate to say things that would humiliate his opponents as long as he could win the election. In 2024, Donald Trump's political opponents would be willing to do and say anything that would humiliate him to win the election. It seems that our society's moral compass has been significantly impacted by the court's decisions in 1948 and 1963, which banned the recitation of Jesus' teachings in schools. These teachings included instructions on how to treat God and our fellow human beings, as detailed in Matthew 7:12. As we drift further away from these teachings, we become more like countries such as Russia, China, and North Korea, where political opponents are often assassinated. It is, therefore, not surprising that some members of the US Congress would support a bill that would make it easier to assassinate a former President, such as President Trump. The best solution to this problem is not to vote for either Republicans or Democrats. Instead, we should reintroduce Jesus' teachings on how to treat God and our fellow human beings in our schools.
  • Squashing stories not beneficial to Trump? Like not reporting Hunter's laptop? Nevermind, that's not right...

    Will someone please show the courage to enforce the law on trump! This is absolutely ridiculous!
  • He should be treated like a regular citizen would be which means YES he should be given prison time.

    The judge doesn't want the fact that his daughter is a big time far left Democratic fundraiser exposed. And Bragg's wife is a Democratic opportunity as well. They need to keep Trump quiet about this. It's enough of a circus without the facts coming out.

    I sure hope so he has violated so many gag orders and doesn't stop posting on social media
  • Democrats better remember this for when its their turn. Dont go crying over it either.

    Will Today be punished for their abject lying and misinformation?
  • @kaysons9736
    There is no moral or respectful outcome from the criminal charges. I am a loss of words.
  • @Thebob6
    Will Trump be punished for having free speech? That’s the question
  • @evahowe8078
    I doubt it! Has any president ever gotten punished for anything they've done.? Oh I forgot he's different, He might!
