Gillum's trial started this week. Not many media outlets are reporting on it on their front pages that I've seen. I understand that he is asking for donations and support from his Twitter account. The responses are apparently not positive.

For instance, his actions in the hotel room where he was busted are cleaned up in this manner:

"In 2020, Gillum was found in a Miami Beach hotel room with a man who had apparently overdosed on drugs. Police said Gillum himself was too inebriated to talk about what happened."

The above qualifiers make it sound as if Gillum had had a few beers and had nothing to do with the other man found who had overdosed.

Why is this case just now coming to trial, if that’s what is happening here? Maybe his lawyer requested a delay, wanting to more thoroughly examine all briefs, is my guess.

I would venture to say that Gillum is not a credit to his race.

“Why is this case just now coming to trial, if that’s what is happening here? “

It’s common for cases such as this to take a couple of years to get to trial. Plus, add in the ridiculous extensions in Court cases due to Covid, and it is not really that much of a delay.

In other words, he’s a typical Democrat.

On the other hand, pretty much ALL of them do this. from City Council to President. Some of them make a career out of running for office with no intention of actually being elected.

He was with ‘People for the American Way’?

You’d have trouble finding a more communist group in all of America. They’re truly devils.

I guess the DNC didn’t explain to him how to get “ legal” donations.

Simple solution:

Put him in prison.

Never forget Gollum came within a few thousand votes in 2018 of being elected governor of Florida.

Had he won, Florida would be a very different place compared to what it is today.

Nothing to see here, just move along. Everybody wakes up in the morning with a male hooker whom has overdosed in a seedy motel with various bodily fluids about the room. /S
