    Bull fucking shit… the whole conversation is exactly what you’ll get when someone wants to do something they know is dubious. Talk to a gambling addict on their way to a casino and you’ll hear echos of these sort of thin justifications.

    Not so sure on that, from what I have seen the verdict helped even more than the initial trial news.

    Did you see the funding that was possible due to the verdict?

    I would be criticial of legacy media, but let me know if you find another source, other than fox news!

      Oh sure - my point is that this person was always going to eventually be a Trump voter this is just their excuse. In terms of fundraising I think it’s extremely predictable. Their idol was being dragged through the dirt - it’s the perfect time to help them overcome.

      The election of Trump is basically a fucking religion at this point.

        Sadly, it seems the duopoly acts as a religion, not just Republicans or Republican-lites.

        We must continue to fight the class war and not let the owner class keep dividing us!
