What does the future hold for Donald Trump? - threadbans in OP

To be fair, I can't think of any other US Presidents that have a) incited an insurrection at the US Capitol b) tried to coerce an election official into throwing out the results of a free and fair election c) suggested that people should ingest bleach to kill COVID d) used social media to bully both political allies and opponents e) been possibly the worst spreader of disinformation in the history of social media f) I could go on and on and on and on.

Reflecting on the above, plus all the other stuff that Trump has done that should disqualify him from running a library, never mind hold serious public office, I don't think it's that surprising that people hold him to a slightly different standard than other US presidents - but I don't think anyone here, right or left, would say that Bill Clinton should not be prosecuted for any crimes that he may have committed. Same as Trump should be prosecuted for any crimes that he's committed, and if he's acquitted then fair enough, that's the justice system doing its job. Right-wing people popping in here and bleating on about how unfairly Trump is being treated does amuse me, though.

This is a thread about trump, hence why I discussed him, if you want to start athread about those claims about Bill then go ahead. So, to paraphrase you, my question stands. So where are these court cases taken against clinton? I can only see one ex president in court for alleged rape

Only one rereg here and they support trump

Right, let's try to deal with this drivel point by point.

1) He absolutely caused that insurrection with his lies and whipping up of his base voter. Most of that comes back to the "they'll only win if they cheat" lines that he was coming out with prior to the election. As you should surely be aware, words while in the office of POTUS matter. If you keep lying and lying and lying, as he's done since he launched his campaign in 2015, eventually enough people will start believing you for it to become a serious problem.

Since he lost the election, he's continued to lie and lie and lie about that, and now we're in a situation where a fair percentage of the US population believe strongly that he actually won the 2020 election and that democracy in the US isn't working. That's entirely on him and is incredibly damaging, and he hasn't provided even a shred of credible evidence to back up that claim. I'm sure that's probably the fault of the mainstream media and the Democrats in your own mind, but there we go.

2) Again, words while in that office matter. I'll let the photo of his chief medical officer do the talking on that one, but just have a think about what the reaction would've been on the right if Barack Obama had stood up in that news conference and said the exact words that Trump said. I doubt if we'd be having this discussion now if he had.

I'll assume you agree with me on the election coercion situation, so I won't bother addressing that one. But you people defending Trump as a misunderstood victim of a witch hunt need to really have a think about what would've happened if a Democrat had behaved the way he's behaved since 2015. The fact that you seem to think that the entire thing is a conspiracy against Donald Trump is really staggering to me. Maybe he's just not as great as you people seem to think he is. Something worth pondering.

He used irresponsible and reckless phrasing with regard to disinfectant and injecting it for covid treatment.

"And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning, because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it’d be interesting to check that, so that you’re going to have to use medical doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me."

Those are the kind of conversations you have behind closed doors not in a press conference.

It is possible this led to an increase in accidental poisonings:

Yeah implying you need to get the disinfectant into the lungs.

It was Trump who caused the poisonings to surge, he started the ball rolling.

He should never have said anything like that in a public press briefing without sanity checking it first.

I don't need to twist his words.

I didn't say he explicitly recommended people to drink bleach, but he used reckless and ambiguous language that was open to misinterpretation. Which is why such words should be chosen carefully.

His remarks led some companies and state agencies to issue warnings about ingesting disinfectants. The maker of Lysol said in a statement that "under no circumstance" should its products be used in the human body.

He convicts himself of what I have accused him of:

It was dangerous, reckless and irresponsible language.
