  1. He’s not really saying “I won the election so I’m innocent.” He’s actually saying, “I won the election so what the fuck are you gonna do about it?”

  2. That may be so – but has the author considered that MAGA *doesn’t care*?

  3. His supporters wouldn’t even care if God himself came down and announced Trump was guilty. That’s the issue.

  4. You don’t need legal arguments when you’ve been placed above the law.

    We had a chance to prevent the coming four years but America loves self-harm.

  5. only needs to convince the supreme court..and he already has

  6. Unconvincing to us. Seems to have worked out for him in court though

  7. His supporters don’t care. The law is for other people.

  8. It’s not a legal argument, it’s a schoolyard bully argument.

  9. “I didn’t take a bullet to the face, therefore I’m invincible”

  10. Why are we all pretending like legal arguments mean a damn thing anymore?

  11. As is “If the president does it, it’s not illegal,” but here we are.

  12. Next speeding ticket, I’m trying this approach; never been jailed, so it should be fun.

  13. Well 77 or so million people don’t give a fuck and at this point, and it rips me the fuck open to say it, neither should the rest of us. The coming crimes will more than likely be far worse. He got away with it all and Vance will pardon him in a year or so anyway.

  14. Time to get Luigi Mangione on a ballot somewhere, if that’s going to work as a legal argument!

  15. “I won the election, so you’re not allowed to prosecute me for any of the federal crimes I committed,” is the “legal” pretense here. And it is complete fucking nonsense.

    The president is, in fact, legally speaking, above the law. We live in a fascist dictatorship. That is the country we built. The founding fathers are rolling in their graves right now.

  16. In the American Justice System, everyone is innocent until proven guilty, and guilty until elected President.

  17. He clearly thinks being president is his get out of jail free card. He’s a criminal and he knows it. Good luck getting him OUT of office once he’s in.

  18. A real dicktaunter’s rethorics…
    What I am most scared of is, that this prick has been ELECTED by the American people. WTAF? That’s scary. Really, really scary!

  19. It’s like saying “the electoral colleges said I’m innocent”….doesn’t make sense

  20. # “I Won the Election So I’m getting away with everything”

    Would be more accurate .

  21. It’s the only argument he needs though since no one is going to hold him accountable. It’s the same story over and over, and I’m fuckin sick of it.

  22. Bought (stole) election, it just blows my mind that a convicted felon can be pres, this country is shit.

  23. I’m waiting for his military uniform with bottlecap metals (made in 🇨🇳)

  24. That’s so funny, even if you ,win, an election, how did you _win_ the election

  25. “When the President does it, that means that it is not illegal “ Richard Nixon
