• MAGA all the way!

    From John@21:1/5 to All on Sat Jul 23 15:25:12 2022
    The New York Post’s editorial board slammed former President Donald
    Trump in a Friday editorial that called him “unworthy” to hold office
    again following his “damning” silence surrounding the Jan. 6, 2021,
    Capitol attack.

    “As his followers stormed the Capitol, calling on his vice president
    to be hanged, President Donald Trump sat in his private dining room,
    watching TV, doing nothing,” the editorial begins. “For three hours,
    seven minutes.”

    The editorial by the right-wing tabloid, controlled by longtime Trump
    supporter Rupert Murdoch, follows the Jan. 6 House select committee’s investigation into Trump’s inaction, which on Thursday laid out
    Trump’s unwillingness to call off the violence.

    “Trump only wanted one thing during that infamous afternoon: to
    pressure Vice President Mike Pence to decertify the election of Joe
    Biden,” the editorial board said. “He thought the violence of his
    loyal followers would make Pence crack, or delay the vote altogether.”

    The decision should still be up to the voters, not a partisan
    committee from the other party ... unless you don't believe in free
    elections.
    We could revert to the Soviet system where the "in power" politburo
    chooses the candidates that are allowed to run against them.

    You do realize I was spoofed.

    But, your reply was spot on.

    Spoofed or not, the editorial and quotes were quite real and very apt:

    https://nypost.com/2022/07/22/trumps-jan-6-silence-renders-him-unworthy-for-2024-reelection/

    The fact that Trump has lost support of the Murdochs and their various media outlets is quite telling. Can Tucker Carlson be far behind?

    So the voters should send him packing like the founding fathers
    planned. It shouldn't be a partisan witch hunt trying to disqualify
    him.
