Crabby, intermittently amusing wiseass, exiled from Muskland. Writes stuff. Acts in stuff. He/him.
If he did, JD Vance would be in charge of the healing, so I can’t say I’d be sanguine about our situation improving.
I condemn the senseless violence in Washington DC and elsewhere today. Our severely incapacitated President must step aside and let others try to heal his vicious attacks on our country.

I say 37 consecutive life sentences. That way, no matter how long he lives, if he dies and comes back, we’re sticking his reincarnated baby ass back in the joint.
Is 27 yrs enough? In America sentences are always shortened by judges or parole boards.
4,000 to 8,000 yrs would be better. Then, if a court cuts the sentence in half Donald still serves 2,000 to 4,000 yrs. Unless a Republican gets into office & pardons him in exchange for bribes.
