Apparently, the prosecutors don’t think it’s a crime, either. They didn’t charge Trump with attempted murder or inciting murder. They charged him with civil rights violations. Nobody charges civil rights violations if they have real charges to bring.
Imagine that conversation. “Dude, we’ve got the bastard on attempted murder! We got the evidence, everything. Let’s put him away!”
“Nah, forget about all that. Let’s do him up on civil rights violations instead. That’s a really serious charge, not like that silly murder crap nobody cares about.”
Again, it’s the same with the Biden allegations.
“But what do you think Biden was saying on those phone calls?” people keep repeating.
Well, thankfully, your thoughts (also known as your imaginary life) are of no consequence to anything. “But isn’t it just common sense that it’s what he did” is a phrase particularly beloved by clinical morons. As much as they want to believe that being disliked by them is a chargeable offense, it’s not.
Of course, these are all problems of a country with no serious problems, so let’s rejoice that life is good and people have the leisure to entertain themselves with these inflated scandals.
And by the way, I would like to get some recognition for my dogged avoidance of cheap popularity with any partisan crowd. It would be so easy to delete the part either about Trump or about Biden and have a bunch of people like me. But no, I condemn myself to being liked by noone.
I don’t know how people remain perpetually interested in this stuff. I appreciate you trudging through the dullest twitter thread imaginable to give me just the bare bones of it.

Oof. I long ago lost track of what they were trying to charge him with. Does anyone outside DC still care?
But I just spent a week at my inlaws’ house, where CNN is on for a couple hours a day and they still watch the evening news on TV. And it is just wall-to-wall Trump this, Trump that. There is no way that A) there is that much to say about one guy, and B) there is no other news to report. Might as well just rename it TNN for Trump News Network. It is stunningly boring, and I have no idea how anybody tolerates having it on the telly for more than ten minutes.
