Mitch McConnell has to be dealt with. It was his fuckery that gave us the Supreme Court that has allowed all of the tRump-led fuckery to even take place.
Maybe if Krispy Gnome shoots McConnell (thinking he was a ‘mad’ turtle)’ we get rid of McTurtle and Krispy still goes to jail…….

he MUST pay for what he did to our country! Just like the Nuremberg Trials - even though the war was over and they had lost - they still had to pay for their crimes.
Besides, it would be an example for the future, unlike when Nixon was ‘forgiven.’
And on top of all of that - Krispy Gnome would be getting even more serious charges and longer sentences - and, it’s finally one job that we know she could successfully handle (unlike her current one)!

Obviously, not one of these people will go to prison after Dump is gone but please add Kash Patel.

Nutlick is doomed either way after '28. He's a joke and the public has seen it.

I wanna see tiny Kashman go to prison.

All 5 are a fantasy but since nothing will be done to punish them after Dump, I can dream.

Because if so, I'm dropping Lutnick and replacing him with Elon. Lutnick is dogshit but I don't think Lutnick actually raped any kids.

I'm unsure about Elon in that respect but also what he did with DOGE was highly criminal... among other things.

I think if we could remove miller, vought, and vance from the admin we would have a chance at stopping Project 2025.

I don't think Trump cares about P2025 at all, he just wants to be king and not go to jail - period. He figures if he can stay president he can accomplish that. But others are much more focused on ramming through P2025, and that's when our democracy completely falls.

Like being lost in the wilderness for 6 weeks, eating twigs and grubs to survive, then rescued and all you are allowed is one box of two dozen home made still warm chocolate chip cookies and you can only choose one cookie. The Choice given here is just worse than that. And two dozen would not scratch the itch in either scenario.
