If there are no consequences to the "president" for threatening political opponents with death or being cruel to reporters, then why is it even news? Just so we can all be sad about it?

Yes. It is very intentional that they do everything they can to make Americans feel powerless
-
It should always be publicized because there are still people in this country who do not know or believe what is happening. It is not "news" because it is literally new, but because it is unknown in depth to many. And it must be underlined and reported with clearly relevant references.
-
Its so we know how to vote. Seriously? If we can't change it, let it go?is that the message?
-
Sort of yes, you can think about it in terms of the metoo movement, women wanted to show how men were immune to the effects of their sexual assault and rich white guys shut it down. The immunity to consequences is why they want power
-
This has actually gotten a little bit better lately with the polarization of political news & rise of advocacy journalism, but for most of my life, I noticed that most political news outlets would not cover any decision-making process until it was over, ensuring a lack of public participation.
-
They got it on record. These things tend to happen fast. He’s being watched like a virus under a microscope.
-
💯.
-
By mid-terms, American voters would have forgotten he is such an idiot if not reminded constantly. The same folk who either voted for him or allowed him to win.
-
#RemoveConvictImpeachTraitorTrump
-
Funny how he doesn't threaten death to pedophiles.
-
Sad?? Outrage is more like it.
-
Just hope for learning for the next election?
-
So news can sell more advertising after poking our emotions. But yeah...I know...it was rhetorical.
-
Fight tyranny. Please get on the phone or e-mail and share this post with your reps in DC. It only takes a few minutes and it doesn't cost any money. We don't need money in politics. Also see Initiative No. 2 on my website: www.nationalfinancialplan.com

To deflect from him being all in the Epstein files.
-
Fuck sad...
I'M PISSED. WHEN DO WE TARCANF FEATHER THAT MOTHER FUCKER.
-
Aren’t there potential political consequences?
-
Yes, this is all so ridiculous, and what is really sad, the people who could put an end to all this chaos are our elected officials in washington. Remember if and when we can vote again.
-
-
100% agree. Starting to think it’s all too late. He’s not going to give up power.
-
Indeed LOL.
-
What though? None of your conclusions follows from its premise
-
We are in charge of consequences. We need everyone, everyone, everyone in the streets at the next march.
-
It’s news because Trump is good at controlling the narrative.
When Trump’s back is against the wall he pushes back with rhetoric that deflects from what put his back against the wall.
Epstein put Trump’s back to the wall. Trump’s threat against political opponents deflects.
-
When the DEM leadership comes out of hiding well after it's safe for them, they will have eventually very strongly worded speeches condemning it! Vote 3rd party!!!!!
-
So the world knows. Also, so much of what he does never makes the mainstream news, and that’s why he’s in office. Information might make a difference eventually.
-
Because their lives are in danger. See something. Say something.
-
You know people can’t stop gossiping
-
Good point 😂
-
Modern media and entertainment have platformed spectacle, violent conflict, and humiliation to such an extent that people like Donald Trump ride its wave to the most powerful position in the world.
-
😒🙄
-
So we can try to get it changed. I know it seems a long shot but history shows many successes were thought to be impossible.
-
I used to be sad about it....now i am MAD about it.
-
Sane washing a pedo apologist who enjoys threatening to execute dems in his past time….when he’s not literally tearing down historical landmarks or the constitution itself.
Yet he’s still not impeached.
Imagine if a black guy was disgracing the country the way Trump and his sycophants have.
-
Because they’re part of the story now.
-
You have to go for your military to take over the presidency for fucks sake he sent a fucking spy balloon over America under the 17th letter. I wonder which country sort of directed it. It was an American person that ordered it and it was delivered by a Russian syndicate or Chinese syndicate
-
We have to be the consequences.
-
Yup
-
The comments on TikTok last night varied from, they should be arrested because they are traitors/seditionists for what they said to, it was just words calm down your hurt fee fees libtards to, they aren’t doing anything unlawful so it was unnecessary to make that video. So many defending this.
-
-
Ostensibly so they can feel out how much to charge for the ringside tickets to the deathmatches
-
It's time to demand IMPEACH!
-
Do you ever think John Roberts goes I think we missed this one guys...as he rolls around in his piles of money.
-
Everything he does needs to be recorded there will possibly be impeachment
-
Well according to his Sugar Baby press Secretary we should be grateful for his transparency. Poole love that he says what he thinks. Maybe some crazy people do but I am not impressed the is filth vulgarity and corruption. So Sugar Baby maybe the press will be transparent and refer to his dementia
-
You got it- so we can be sad about it. It's psychological warfare.
-
Well, there are definitely no legal consequences because our corrupt conservative, right wing, Republican Supreme Court has already ruled he's above the law. However, they sound like things at least some voters may want to know about, just as a heads up or FYI situation.
-
Some of us are more furious than sad
-
Republicans have no principles so we don't have the votes to impeach let alone convict.
-
I want to believe that even THIS #SCROTUS could never view this as in the normal course of presidential duties
-
If the system will not give consequences then we need to study history and theory and engage in praxis so that we can deal out consequences ourselves.
-
I get that.
-
I guess his sycophantic press want to rub our noses in it.
-
To make sure we know our place as tax paying slaves to the regime and not to question dear leader 🙄
-
Are you advocating that these things shouldn't be covered/publicized?
-
It’s to get on record how pathetic our guardrails are in this democracy and for history purposes for those to look back on and laugh………or cry.🇺🇸🫵🏽
-
He hates rejection . These Congressional Dems made a video addressed to the military "remember your oath" tRump sees this as a rebuke, a rejection, drives him crazy. Power of the People must continue to reject him, out loud, in his face, protest, Boycott, it's working. ##TrumpIsUnfitForOffice
-
Exactly.
-
You may have to arrange for the consequences yourselves, since the entire system has been compromised. Fortunately there are hundreds of millions of you and only a handful of them.
-
There are never any consequences…that’s why it’s all going to ****
-
It's probably just fallout from the time he spent rubbing bits with the Prince of Pieces, where slaughtering anyone you don't like is just another day at the office. Everything will be fine, you'll see... 🤦♀️
-
It’s good for the rest of the world to see how low you’ve sunk. The depths of your leader’s depravity seem boundless. And yet he continues to represent you all without fear of retaliation. Truly America is being made great again.
-
Organize Mobilize
-
Yeah! Why aren’t they addressing this crap to Congress? Oh, probably because it’s our job to contact Congress!
-
The only way there can be consequences is if it's news...
-
Or be angry / disturbed enough to promulgate change.
-
Curious that Tramp has been a mysogenistic A Hole since before Grab them by the P. How many sh*tty things has he said to & about women since then?with Maggots not being bothered at all and others not coming to women's defense. But NOW we're bothered by "Piggy." But still no one stops him
-
Trump is an extremely sick and dangerous man. NO ONE knows what he will do next...not sure he even knows. His impulsivity is a danger to ALL OF US....and even to the world. He needs to go. #25thAmendment
-
To the last question, yes.
A big portion of MAGA juice is squeezed from us, my friend. "Owning the libs" is almost entirely seeing people being sad that horrific things are being done by incredibly shitty people against, well, anyone else. It's their crack cocaine.
-
They need to have a 100% failproof way to impeach AND convict him. Generally only the impeachment is done, but I'm pretty sure they wanna take this all the way to court so dotting 'i's" and crossing "t's" should be important to never experience this insanity ever again.
-
The first step is to vacate the speaker. As long as that kiss ass Johnson is speaker, he will never let impeachment come up for a vote. There are a few republicans who are sick and tired of this too, and what he did is horrid to some senators. They might have a chance without Maga mike
-
He is just pretending to be an innocent victim, but everyone knows what kind of person he really is😄
-
Cause people uninformed or mollified by the corporate media will roll over about it unless it's made to be news instead of normalized?
-
if there are any republicans of character left, there must be consequences - he will also come for them whether they rise or not
-
Documentation, for one. Each news article/show has the evidence of the threats and abuses. Hard to "disappear" everything in that case. Empathy/sympathy, for another. To show agreement that what was said was wrong, and we support the abused. Exposing the truth, the persona, behind the face.
-
Too many J6 running around free now so I pray our Dems remain safe!
What's disgusting, Trump will pardon these nut jobs anyway.
Enough already! Impeach!!
-
How refreshing
-
Agreed. The lack of courage is incredible.
-
Why isn’t Trump being stopped???
-
Oh, wow! Exactly!
-
The 1st consequence should have been BREAKING HEADLINES on all news/info media as well as all reporters calling for a boycott of all trump interviews. The 2nd consequence should have been Republican leaders calling for his IMMEDIATE OUSTER.
FFS...make him IRRELEVANT!!
-
So we can see what Dems are brave enough to co-sign for impeachment
-
They all say the same thing !! Him being Him!! DEMS BETTER GROW BALLS!! CAAL IT OUT !!! MEDIA THINKS THEY WILL BE SAFE? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
-
And Schumer being concerned was a typical letdown. Did he call out any of his Republican "colleagues" and ask them to speak out and condemn this insanity! Nah. Only Chris Murphy had the cojones to say it. www.reddit.com/r/Fauxmoi/co...

I do believe you are on to something here. These stories become weight that threaten to crush our hope potentially. The wealthy few that own these news outlets are the enemy and diminishing our morale and fight keeps us all oppressed.
-
Looks that way.
-
Yes. It's the Trump gravy train. Democrats and Independents suck from its tit, too. I wish they'd all just STFU about Trump. He'd go away. I bet 99% of his tactics are just to see folks' reactions. He loves attention good or bad. Great job everyone. Keep up the great work. Trump 24/7/365. Yay. 🤑
-
why do they even report on him people gets sick of hearing about him in the news, social media and quite frankly every where
-
Might be good to let those Congress folk & families be aware so they can up their security & get permission to attend remotely from a safe place if needed.
-
It’s reported so that hopefully the proper people will hold him accountable. And it’s sad the collective dereliction of duty.
-
Yep. When you realize he only gets away with it because he’s racist it feels worse
-
Agree, lots of sadistic ba$tards and b!tches out there
-
isn't there a.protest in DC saturday.Trump out its called.not sure
-
Why is he accusing.them.of Sedation.when.he caused the biggest in.the history.of the country Jan 6th was viciousness threatening congress demacrats. the man needs to be removed !! his psycho followers are nuts, they might try to hurt one or all.the congress people. Fox Ntl News should be banned
-
How come.hes still.in office, in.any other countries he would be out and in.prison for Abuse of the presidency
https://still.in
-
-
The consequences take place in the voting booth
-
Why on earth aren’t the citizens of America up in arms about this dangerous president. America is a laughing stock all around the world. How much more crimes is this disgusting human being have to commit before citizens stand up and say enough is enough.
-
Trump knows: If he says something that his followers take him seriously. It excites them to be given the chance to please him. That is what makes Trump's comments so dangerous. If anything happens to the military veteran Congress members who reminded the military to obey the law, Trump's fault.
-
Republicans are fucking cowards. They would have impeached a democrat president for half the shit trump says. But they are incredibly silent about trump’s comments.
-
Yes. The cruelty is the point.
-
Because he's never faced a consequence for any of the multitude of misdeeds, crimes and assorted assholery ever.
Too many people have enabled him his whole miserable life.
-
So we can pull America’s head out of its ass, so it never votes for a republican for any office anywhere at for the rest of my goddamn life.
-
What consequences should he face? Censure? He won’t care. Impeachment? GOP reps & senators gave him a pass on attacking them on Jan. 6. Removal by the Cabinet under the 25th Amendment? It’s stacked with sycophants & autocratic-loving morons. Civil suits won’t work bc courts enforce via US Marshals.
-
A convicted felon and a man who seemingly bankrupts every business he's tried to run should never be allowed into politics, let alone allowed to run and be elected President.
-
Democracies run on information that is truthful. Ignorance is the tyrant's strength. To remove Trump, vote people into Congress who will restore checks and balances and then impeach him. Not reporting on his increasingly vile and erratic behavior will simply allow it to continue and worsen.
-
Good point, but we cant look away.
-
Our country. Our government. Our military. Our courts. Anyone attempting to behave as if they own it all is a traitor. Such as our president.
-
Thinking the same thing. The US is becoming an ass.
-
Consequences can take time to come. Sometimes a very long time. But they do come.
Keeping tabs on the cretins and criminals is important. Documenting their words and deeds is key.
-
I have been wondering this sort of thing for a long time.
Every time we report on some new horror he has perpetrated, the MAGA cult loves him more, and he faces zero consequences.
WE NEED A PLAN TO BEAT HIM. Not just another gnashing of teeth.
-
SPOTLIGHT TIME - one of his ‘religions’ 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
-
Reporters allowed on AirForce 1 are only part of his Reality Show...
-
Sadness, is one of many emotions that can be exploited to continue to bring Americans a lowered life expectancy.
-
The consequences are at the ballot. He may have those voters who look the other way at the unprofessional and disrespectful things he does, but many don't. He should be called out every time he does this. We will not normalize this disgusting behavior.
-
Start with record poll ratings even on Fox News. There's nothing he can do as they continue to crash.
The consequence is a landslide win next fall and he knows it.
The lame-ass media owns some responsibility. They should have been outraged.
-
He’s not going to stop until someone stops him.
-
Well to be fair, I think we'd all be a little pissed off on the day his obituary makes headlines but nobody was there to cover it.
Gotta pick your poison. Can't have it both ways I reckon.
-
I haven’t seen anything on mainstream media other than one small blurb. No talk of impeachment no congress to be seen other tha Al green, this congress is pathetic and trump knows it. The public needs to impeach the train in chief
-
And what is impeachment actually for??? No crime seems to be big enough.
-
Excellent point.
-
Grow up. Use your energy for better things. You people are all infatuated with making enormous spectacles of every damn thing Trump does. It’s truly disgusting and irrelevant.
-
Why can't we threaten him and his regime the same way?
-
Send him to THE HAGUE!!!
-
I feel like January 6 was a testing ground. He wants to see how far he can push.
-
I don’t care what SCOTUS says, there is NO IMMUNITY for abuses of power, which include acts that clearly violate the Constitution.
-
Ah the crux of the matter. Well posed
-
So true🎯💯!!! It's been a constant cycle of absolutely unacceptable behavior with no consequences🤬
-
Nerumberg trials.
-
Exactly
-
Agreed. When you put it in context with SCOTUS giving him permission to have his political adversaries killed by Navy Seals, it's not such a big deal, right? Just another day in Murica.
-
No. The left has been ineffective in bringing down President Trump, and in an attempt to stave off resulting despair amongst their base, they are frantically looking for an event/issue to stir them up, hence outrage over superficial and/or manufactured scandals.
-
He should have been “done for” when he tried to shake down Georgia for “just 11,780 votes” ON TAPE with Witnesses!!! How did this not end it???
-
Meanwhile, we can't do it..why not? If he can..
-
So, your solution is not to be told so you can pretend it isn’t as bad as it really is? Do you find it difficult to get clothes for your ostrich-body?
-
You know, Their just owning the libs…
-
It's so we can be aware. Maybe one day America will get off its ass and realize the French had it right.
We are the consequences.
-
It’s not the first time he’s done it .. nothing will ever happen
-
You can Thank The Corrupted Robert's Supreme Court for allowing this to happen in our country
-
How is he still in office??
-
So we can all fantasize about doing to Trump what MBS did to Khoshoggi.
-
Just because there are no legal consequences doesn't mean there are no political consequences.
-
Americans are being gaslighted. We have watched a felon become president and been told that's OK. We have watched masked men invade our cities and been told that's OK. We now are watching a president who has a close association with a pedophile, and that's OK? I got news for you none of this is OK.
-
Bc every day is a new low for the US
-
Basically? With the Supreme Court protecting Trump at all levels, there's not a huge amount that can be done legally.
-
18 USC ch 115 sec 2385- Advocating Overthrow of the Govt ... "by assassination of opponents" is a crime punishable by: fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both & shall be ineligible for employment by the United States or any department or agency thereof ...
-
They MSM rarely report on the crap he does in a way to incite discussion or consequences.
-
When you are waist-deep in Seditious Conspiracy Insurrectionist Coupsters, it’s hard to remember your primary job was to indict, prosecute, and incarcerate the Republican Congresspeople that planned, participated, and conspired to overthrow the 2020 free and fair election.
-
Rep Al Green introduced articles of impeachment yesterday in the House of Reps
-
Since 2010 I have been putting this out there:
-
I got banned from Reddit for saying much less threatening things than our president does openly. The rules don't seem to apply to this mother fucker. You know it does? Physics, medical state, and mental illness. Hopefully one of those takes him soon.
-
The trials should have documented evidence.
-
To try and break thru to those who continue to fein ignorance
-
Andrew Johnson got his consequences. Drump will get his.
-
We don't have a president. Having a president implies that someone is governing. We have a king, who gets to say and do anything he likes, and is above all laws.
-
-
It's because he is STILL trying to deflect from the Epstein files!
-
More then a third of eligible voters didn't bother to vote, think of every miserable news report highlighting the newest creepy, inhumane, or just asshole thing that he has done is another kick in the ass to get everyone to vote. And just maybe enough of this BS might get some magas to think
-
This is how fascism works. People cave and we all become Russians.
-
He jumped right past “Let them eat cake”.
Yet still we get shit for “liberal-led violent political rhetoric” about Kirk, with this from the President. The President!
Still feelin’ mighty 1789 up in here…
-
It’s embarrassing.
-
perhaps one is the result of the other, not simultaneous?
-
No! We need to demand impeachment.
-
I hear you. I've posted twice this week questioning the value of the many posts saying some version of "x, y or Z just happened. This is bad. You should be very worried about this"
OK. I'm very worried. Now what?
-
We can just sit and wait to become a victim of the silent genocide of Americans.
-
So that there is a record. If no one shares it, no one will know or remember it.
-
It makes me sad but what it really does is enrage me. I will never let that sorry excuse for a human being destroy my country!
-
The people are being called upon for consequences.
-
So Congresspeople can duck and cover?
-
We need to be the consequences. We need to push this news to people who have not seen it.
-
Thank to the John Roberts Supreme Court, Trump could actually murder each of us with his bare hands and it's all good. This is Amerikkka now.
-
It is literally just so we’ll get sad and angry. Media thrives on that. It makes them money because it gets views and generates engagement (comments, likes…) Add on the ad revenue, and they’re making bank. That’s why you don’t see much happy news: people love controversy 😮💨
-
Every day he does or says some horrific thing & there are never any consequences other than gaslighting. I have also come to the point of why the news, if he is still supported & cheered on by everyone who should be holding him accountable. We no longer have 3 branches of government, we have Trump
-
The sad part is it really doesn't even warrant outrage anymore. Americans are shrugging their shoulders saying just another treasonous thing our dictator president us doing that NO ONE will do anything about. I truly fear for my country
https://for.my
-
So, you’re a snowflake for what you call Trump being cruel to reporters. She deserved what she got as she was piggish for interrupting another reporter after she was able to ask her question without interruptions
-
Excellent point
-
SCOTUS needs to be held accountable for giving presidents such extreme immunity. Chief Justice Roberts is a corrupt scumbag
-
-
Exactly. He should just be ignored.
-
this, it just becomes another day of the week.
Again, first thing that needs to be done, is term limits on Robert's rouge court.
-
Mueller was our Judicial Maginot Line.
-
I hear ya
-
It’s news because there are no consequences. In other words, the fact that there are no consequences is as extraordinary as the fact that he called for the death of senators. There are two extraordinary stories in the US, one is Trump and the other is the people who elect and enable him.
-
You have a point. This is the guy who said he could stand on 5th Ave. & shoot somebody and no one would care. He still won. He's ordering the obliteration of people on boats in the Caribbean. And he intimated that Jamal Khashoggi's murder might've been justified because some people didn't like him.
-
Exactly
-
Or pissed off! But I agree at what point will he be held accountable!
