Liberals gloated, then reality struck

Let’s start the week off right with a nice big cuppa liberal tears. For eight years, liberals dreamed of seeing President Trump in a mugshot. They finally got their wish.

Liberals gloated, then reality struck.

The Hill reported, “Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) shared a video of him laughing at the mugshot photo and saying, ‘We got you, and more to come . . . Clown, thug, crook, criminal.’”

The tweet is here.

Shortly afterward, the congressman realized the error Democrats made.

He panicked and tweeted, 'This mugshot is not what you think it is.

“It’s a jackpot for Trump who will use this image to raise MILLIONS of dollars from his cult — and the worst part is they are going to use it to win even more elections so they can change our laws to make it easier to steal our democracy.

“It’s a symbol of everything that is wrong with our country. It is a reminder of the deep divisions that exist, the hatred that is spewed, and hate is tolerated. It is a sign that our democracy is in danger.

“After today, the Republican Party will solidify their support around Trump and our fate will be sealed.”

“leftist”??

They left “leftist” in the dust ages ago. These are hard-core communists. They may not be card-carrying commies, but their despicable, tyrannical, despotic, command & control, anti-justice mien is commie through and through.

Loved this bit...

“Trump is so scared of Willis and her Fani that he went out and shot a 5-under-par 67 to win a Senior Club Championship on Saturday.”

I’ve never once heard President Trump say anything that is remotely hateful. But the commie strategy is to besmirch, besmirch, besmirch, evidence or lack thereof notwithstanding. Repeat it enough and it becomes true. That’s been commie strategy for 160 years.

You're right. Wrong choice of a word.

For all times historians will know how Trump felt about the growing police state... and his willingness to stand up to it’s goons and thugs and it’s corrupt legal system.

“...and our fate will be sealed.”

From your lips to God’s ears, Congressman.

Somehow, though, like B-movie monsters, every time it looks like these @#$&(*&s have been defeated, they lay low for a few years and then rise again.

All communist states and totalitarian governments are democracies.
When the majority rules by democratic fiat the minority have no rights.
In a republic the individual is vested with all the rights of citizenship.

Law abiding American citizens are now a “cult?”

I can't recall a republican president from Nixon on who wasn't depicted in a mug shot (or as the joker) by the libs and media. This is how they operate, ridicule or criminalize dissent.

But, they also thought it was fun to impeach a president that was already out of office. Don't need no stinkin' constitution...

It is a reminder of the deep divisions that exist, the hatred that is spewed, and hate is tolerated.

Jamaal must be looking in a mirror here.

Wow. You may have just set the record for the most typos and/or grammatical errors in a single post.

It’s a republic ( on paper ) and not a democracy.

OMG….if you're a Ghostbusters fan, this line from the article is fire, “ He is not a victim. He is the form of the destructor they have chosen.”. Someone with meme skills needs to do this one.

Ha! If you support Trump, you are no longer a law abiding American citizen, you are an "insurrectionist" seeking to overthrow the American government, because you support someone who is an insurrectionist seeking to overthrow the American government.

See how easy it is to make criminals of your political opponents? The fact that Trump never attempted to overthrow the government is completely irrelevant, comrade.
