    The Trump Recording Footage Shows a Man Made by TV Who Was Suddenly Trapped in It

    I'm the man in the box
    Buried in lies from Fox
    Won't you come and praise me?
    Praise me
    Feed my lies
    (Can you keep your mind shut?)
    Jesus Christ
    (I'm your new maker)
    He who cries
    (Will be wasted)
    Oh, feed my lies
    (Now you've spread them) out
    I'm the dog who Biden beat
    Shove my nose in shit

    Hillary Clinton got roughly 66 million votes in 2016. Joe Biden got almost 82 million in 2020. That's an increase of 16 million. Trump got 62 million, then 74, an increase of 12. So yes. Democrats turned out big in 2020, in record numbers. I assume some of these voters were young, and some were hispanic.

    This type of talk is what allows the crap we're seeing to continue. So defeatist. Why not just give up? Let them run amok.

    No, that's not what our country should be. We are the land of independence, which is supposed to mean, we, as a collective, get to choose our lives, choose our representatives, and choose what government we are going to have.

    "Saying, oh this means nothing, nothing's going to change..." No. I'm not going to let people literally "storm the Capital" and say "means nothing."

    Our whole economic system in the USA depends on our free government. This extraordinary wealth we collectively have? It will evaporate if we do not have a freely elected government with the rule of law in place. No, not going to happen. And that's what these clowns take for granted, we can ignore the Constitution and STILL have the world's greatest economy. Well that's why they're clowns because that's so wrong.

    For me, everything comes back to our economy, if we do not protect our government system, we lose our economy and way of life.

    You’re right though.

    My guess is that Trump slowly eventually becomes like the Iraq War, something the righties loved, then didn't talk about since they could fill programs crushing Hillary and Obama.

    Voter turnout was highest among those ages 65 to 74 at 76.0%, while the percentage was lowest among those ages 18 to 24 at 51.4%. Voting and Registration in the Election of November 2020

    63% of eligible voters actually voted in 11/2020.
    There are at least 25 million eligible voters that are not registered.

    So will Bannon actually see any jail time for this? Or is this purely a symbolic gesture?

    I think I read somewhere that there is a statutory minimum of 30 days.
