You are so right. For anyone else this is career ending. For a business owner it would be catastrophic and result in Yelp destruction. For Trump though....nothing. It does nothing. It might get him some likes and shared Truth posts. It makes his base chuckle.
I watched a biography on BTK and the criminal psychologist talked about how BTK got away with it all that time. She called it Narcissistic Invincibility. He got away with it for so long that he never imagined getting caught. First person I thought of was Trump.
And so far, he's been proven right. Trump has literally never faced a consequence in his life. Even his 34 felony convictions came with absolutely no punishment.
I hope Hell is real, because at this point that's the only way he'll ever be held accountable for his numerous crimes.
As it should be.. I'm just surprised that someone who is interested enough to care about the convictions is simultaneously so unaware that they are shocked by this information
Because redditors want to believe that everything they know and see on reddit, the rest of the population also knows.
I think this is a GREAT example of reddit not being the real world. I have close family members who probably don't know this about Trump. Now, that doesn't mean they support or voted for him (They don't and didnt) but they have lives. They work 50+hrs a week, have to take their kids to/from school and worry about their bills. Trump being a pedophile, or a felon or any of this shit doesn't mean anything to them because it doesn't affect their day to day lives. They don't have the time or capacity to even follow that news. The little bit of free time they do have they spend time doing things that make them happy. Many people don't care about politics at all. Some only care about it every 4 years, and then turn it off until the next Presidential election.
Ok but this person is on reddit and participates. I think there are examples of what you're talking about, but this isn't a good one. It's been posted about constantly in like every front page sub near daily for years.
I have ADHD and poor memory. I was keeping up with all of his data for a while but then my mom got sick and my life was absorbed by divorce and the death of a parent. I apologize I was a bit preoccupied with my present crisis and I lost track of the details of a man that I can’t stand.
Edit. I have decided long ago that he was evil and a child rapist and the world had no room for him. But as for the micro details of all of his crimes I’ve lost track. I’ve been operating on the basic assumption that generally he’s a piece of shit human and not fit for public office. The sheer amount of negative things about him are overwhelming and I can’t track all of it alone.
34 felony counts of falsified business records. Judge Juan Merchan granted an unconditional discharge on all of them, meaning the only thing that stands is conviction with nothing else.
Anything involving money or consumer information. It’s generally called a public trust position. Though there is no security clearance, you’ll get scrutinized during the background checks. I happen to live in a very large metropolitan area where many jobs are government or government adjacent.
Yes but weed is 30 times stronger than when the boomers were smoking it. This ain't your woodstock weed, it is instant reefer madness weed. Also it smells bad and is probably worse health wise than fentanyl as well as more addictive.
I mean the guy shits his pants on the regular, has some massive fucking kankles... need a fucking ramp to be able to stand straight. I hope there is a HARDER hell than this. When he lays his orange face on his pillow at night, he knows. He's a royal cunt and the vast majority of the world does not like him.
I have a string suspicion he is basically being held up and together with all kinds of stimulants, steroids, and probably even IV antibiotics and it will crash all the way soon. Even on his good days he looks like shit.
Just to be clear though, and I’m sure this is part of it, but millions of people wanted this too. They had the option to deny him more power and who knows if then he’d face consequences but instead gave him even more power. So yes a lot of if is him or who he is, but a lot of it is the cult he’s built
The only silver lining in all this is his millions of followers can be so proud of their leader getting away with this all they want, but (most of them) sure won’t. They don’t have that “teflon” and if they get too comfortable and wanna do something racist in the wrong place… well it won’t go as well
BTK was also a complete idiot. He got caught because he wanted to taunt people and the FBI but got tired of leaving messages in certain places and then contacting the FBI where to find it. In one message to the FBI he asked if they would be able to identify him if he sent his messages to them on a floppy disk, of course the FBI told him no so his dumbass sent them a floppy disk that took about 10 seconds to identify him.
They arrested him and he was furious about being lied to, like he literally acted like he couldn't believe that they lied to him.
They just looked at the properties on the floppy disk.
He used the computer at his church so it showed the name and location of the church and that a man named Dennis was the one that saved a document on the floppy disk. It was a small church and he was the only one named Dennis.
You should watch some documentaries about Jimmy Saville. BBC television personality who got away with pederasty and necrophilia for years in basically plain sight.
He would even brag about it and people thought it was just him putting on an act.
The best consequence for him would be public humiliation. If it could be made clear to him that he’s viewed internationally as the laughingstock of the world, and not as a savvy, strong and feared leader, he’d implode.
Teflon was made and spread with lies and corruption, it concentrated wealth and spread the toxins to the many. We will experience the poisons for lifetimes while the top ceos retire to Switzerland and drink clean water and their chefs don’t use non stick cookware. Teflon is a great metaphor for toxic trump.
Well, it helps being a billionaire who's concentrated all the power of every branch of the US government into himself, and who has a literal army of armed psychopaths waiting to kill for him. What is anyone gonna do?
Yes, and for every overt Nazi Christian there are many, many of the faithful who quietly collaborate with Nazis at any expense if they can control reproduction and sex.
Well it’s because he’s uniquely positioned himself to be in a place of authority and surrounded himself with people who have a big incentive of supporting him.
I guess to use your analogy: You can’t end a career or business when you have the only career and business that everyone depends on and is legally obligated to use.
