The DOJ has the right to prosecute, convict and imprison this racketeer.

[abejacgot]

Treason: " The crime of betraying one's country, or attempting to overthrow the government".

[cosmiccharlie]

Jesus Christ it's like "idiots guide to being a dictator" being played out for everyone to witness.

[oceanrock]

Lock Him up. All he does is incite anger and violence.

[davidv]

Ok Trump admitted it. Arrest him, have a trial, convict him, put him away, and make it so we never have to see that orange blob again.

[mxetmnu]

So…now he’s basically saying the current VP can stop him from winning in 2024 if he does run? That’s logic.

[trinayoung]

He did not parden them when it happend now hes making false promise

[DKLGalactus]

OK what's the problem why is this guy not in jail.

[berthabridges]

A public confession what more does AG Garland need? Seriously he seems unhinged. Who does this?

[jilllowman]

How can anyone still support him? Its beyond me.

[AdamBladeTaylor]

He claims that he will give people pardons... except as always, he's lying.
If he wanted to pardon them, he would have done it on the 7th. Or 8th. Or any other time before leaving office.
But he knows they are stupid enough to believe yet another of his blatant lies. He despises his followers and will happily throw their lives away to profit.

[juliolopez]

It's amazing how much damage
Only one person can do to his
Country . A Country that gave so
Much to Him .

[DocBrew]

Susan Collins deserves zero praise for her "spine".

[drawkcabgnivird]

If this doesn't disqualify him from holding ANY public office ... Then democracy is finished here in America.

[graphicmaterial]

"Divide and conquer" - straight from the fascist playbook! Why don't people see through this? What's wrong with them???

[josephf]

Just let him keep talking. He’s clearly dumb enough to convict himself.

[tracyjohnson]

Please take him seriously. Everyone, except him, has something to lose if they don't. He realizes it's prison or coup; and he's used most of his legal stall tactics. He's very desperate and frightened; thus the race-baiting and vitriolic rants. We've seen this movie before--the ending sucks...
The Jan 6 investigation

[SeraphusInferis]

He's calling for "protests" for if he gets arrested for committing the crimes he himself committed.
That's kind of a big deal.

[suzannerichardson]

Trump always says he was "treated so unfairly". I thought he would have said that when he was a child and then his parents would have told him"life is never fair. Get used to it", or something like that. He sounds like an immature little brat every time he says that.

[oqvp]

That's a dictator's speech...good lord the Trump nightmare isn't over yet.
