    WTF are you talking about?

    I believe Democrat "policies" are policies. They aren't threats of retribution or constant Me, Me, MEEEEEEEEEE! tRaitor tRump bullshit.

    Next they will call Angus Young for some dirty deeds done dirt cheap.

    Got a thorn in your side? We can help with that.

    Fortunately, that's not how it works. All Presidents, both current and former, receive secret service protection, even if they are in prison. The only way that a former President would not have a secret service detail is if he refused and declined the service, which only one former President ever has.

    That's not how it works NOW. If Congress passes a law that denies SS Protection to ex Presidents convicted of a crime and Trump gets convicted, bye bye SS protection.

    Even if that were somehow to happen, which it won't, Trump would be placed in a secure facility away from everyone else.

    I agree.

    Honestly, if Trump gets sentenced to jail, the best way to do it would be to either take an existing prison and clear out an entire cell block for him and staff it with Secret Service instead of regular guards or find a facility that would be big enough to house him by himself and turn it into a prison.

    The DNC did not bring charges, did not investigate Trump on this or any of his other indictments, did not in any way direct the DOJ on who/what/when to investigate, did not pick a grand jury, did not assign a prosecutor, did not assign a judge, and did not choose the jury.

    Which media outlets are claiming that Putin, Kim, Xi, et al favor the Democrats? I must have missed that report. Was it on Fox News?

    There is no logic, reason, or factual basis in your post.

    It's useless to provide you with facts. You're too deep under Trump's magic spell.

    I know. I do try, but there are times when my tongue is just too sore to keep biting. In my defense, I've rarely been the one to start ****.

    It's disgusting the amount of men these days that don't even know how to put air in a tire. They would be completely lost if they had to clean or cook game or fish.

    We used to smoke Marlboros and camel non filters, now these boys vape strawberry cheesecake.... We are not the same

    In fairness, that strawberry cheesecake nicotine vapor will take longer to kill you than the old unfiltered cigarettes.

    :smoking:

    I don't know about that. I smoke unfiltered cigarettes to the tune of a pack a day and if I try to take a hit off of one of those vape cartridges it makes me cough like hell.

    I think the jury is still out on the long-term effects of vaping

    Whereas the Jury is long done and dusted on the long term effects of smoking, especially unfiltered cigs.

    I did laugh when you were implying that only tough men smoked Marlboro and Camel unfiltered cigs. Did you eat quiche?

    You're probably right. I'm glad that I managed to quit tobacco years ago. Feels so much better. Plus, cautionary tale, my brother died from small cell lung cancer, the aggressive sort that's been directly linked to smoking. I wasn't going to take chances with the thing that killed my closest genetic match!
