I've said it often, but Miller spent most of 2024 dancing around like a kid waiting for Santa Claus, dreaming of this moment. And because of John Roberts' "gift" to Trump, Miller feels no need to rein it in on any level.

..... with each loss in the national elections, THEY LEARNED what needed to be fixed so it didn't prevent a win in the future elections.

Since the year 2000, Republican candidates have lost three U.S. presidential elections:

2008 – John McCain lost to Barack Obama
2012 – Mitt Romney lost to Barack Obama
2020 – Donald Trump (incumbent) lost to Joe Biden

2000 George W. Bush Won
2004 George W. Bush (inc.) Won
2008 John McCain Lost
2012 Mitt Romney Lost
2016 Donald Trump Won
2020 Donald Trump (inc.) Lost
2024 Donald Trump Won

Trump thinks they have the formula, which is why he says, paraphrasing, You won't need to vote after this election if you vote for me now.

... was conceived by the diseased mind of a malignant narcissist consumed with malice, but implemented by an unrepentant psychopath named Stephen Miller, with the eager assistance of a puppy killer, and other vile individuals too numerous to mention.
The Heritage Foundation must be wiped off the face of the Earth, never to be seen or heard from ever again. Such evil is intolerable.
Let this be the end of the Republican Party. Forever. From the ashes, may a Phoenix arise that is a nation devoted to the good of ALL humanity, not just the greedy, malicious rich. Their day is over. Let those who've earned their wealth fairly distinguish themselves through their good works, not ostentatious weddings, yachts, and malevolent schemes to exercise dominion over the lives of others less fortunate.

Yeah, it sounds like the "Lord of the Rings" or something, but the unmitigated evil of Trump cannot be allowed to poison the heart of America anymore. It is possible, if we make it so. But it's time for those who've been strangely silent to step up. They swore can oath; now it's time to honor it. Or step down.

I believe Domination was the actual Original Sin. But Men changed it. Because, of course they did. And we've had nothing but Trouble ever since.

and anyone who was any part of sending non felons to El Salvador for any reason needs to face the type of tribunals they held at Nurembeg.

The administration knew what conditions are like. They don't care.

We were once better than this.

I can imagine lawsuits being filed, and Trump doing his usual delay, delay, delay moves, and eventually kicking it to the SCOTUS, where it's six to three.

It's gotten to the point where I think God is the only one who can intervene here. Congress isn't going to stop him. Every time a pundit or the media expresses fears or concerns about Trump either calling off the midterms or monkeying with them, it "gives him ideas," it reinforces things he's probably already thinking about. And what he's looking to do is inflict the maximum damage on the largest number of people.

He wants to start deporting U.S. citizens next.

I'll bet Roberts, Alito and Thomas...plus Leonard Leo's Three Stooges...would sign off on that as well.

Kidnapped. Flown to a place no one knows about. Made to have little to no sleep for x-amount of days. Having to kneel for 12 hours. No food, no water during that time. Any complaints or movement will get you beaten.

Only after their ordeal should they be able to make a decision.

I'd say that disturbs me more than wondering how many times Roberts will write a "hall monitor pass" for Trump, Miller, whoever crosses the line.

I remember the Abu Ghraib incidents...making the prisoners wear women's underwear on their heads, terrifying them with attack dogs. That's recruiting material.

Trump marveled on the Access Hollywood Tape at how he could get away with sexual assault.

I think the sadism, for Miller, is the equivalent of any sick sexual fantasies Trump has. This is like spending every day at Disneyland, or maybe the North Pole with Santa, for Miller.
