We have a justice system that functions, it relies on regular people, like the jury in this case, and evidence must be presented and examined to determine innocence or guilt. There is no master string puller, like Putin in Russia, that is fixing things. Joe Biden has nothing to do with Trump being charged with criminal behavior, Trump has himself to thank for that. 

I guess the one thing we have that comes close to a Soviet style program is the right-wing propaganda machine. I have to admit, I tuned into FOX quite a bit during this trial and if you watched them, well, they told their audience over and over that nobody ever said what crime or crimes Trump was charged with. They claimed that Trump's defense was going fantastic. They said that the prosecution failed to even make any case that Trump committed a crime. They said that the prosecution's case was so weak that the defense would just make a motion at the end to dismiss the charges and the judge should agree because there was no evidence to show Trump did anything. They said the prosecution failed to show anything. 

It reached a level of absurd that would have been mind-blowing had it not already been proven, and cost FOX close to a billion dollars, that FOX openly bullshits the living hell out of their audience. 

Now, I don't think FOX could be sued for this debacle because technically the idea that the prosecution failed to present anything to show Trump committed a crime was presented by the nutjobs on FOX as an opinion. They did not present a single fact to their audience to back up the claims they made so, really, I guess you can't call what they did lying because that would be hard to prove. The morons saying this stuff could just say "Well, that's what we believed."

The thing is, I am certain that these people were lying and knew they were lying, not ignorant. Still, they gave the audience what they wanted. A fairytale that Trump committed no crimes, that he was being persecuted by the all-powerful evil mastermind Joe Biden and his Democrat minions. That George Soros was funding everything. 

While also telling their audience that Biden was so senile he has no idea what is going on and can't string three words together to form a sentence. So, take your pick, Biden is either an evil mastermind or in some sort of senile coma. On FOX he can be either depending upon what is convenient for the fairytale they are telling. 

I find these tales hilarious to some degree, because they are so idiotic, but also I sit in amazement that anybody would believe them. I mean, I had this conversation with Trump supporters over and over about Trump's asinine claim that the 2020 election was rigged.

You would ask them "So, the Democrats had the power to rig the election for Joe Biden?" 

"Oh yes!" they would say. 

"So, the Democrats could rig any election?" I would ask.

"Yes, absolutely!" they would tell me. 

"So, why did they only rig it so Biden would win? Why didn't they rig it so they won congressional contests and senate contests as well? Why just Biden when he would need the Senate and House to help him get stuff done?"

Blank stare from Trump supporter. 

"I mean on the same ballots that people used to vote for Biden, Republicans also won on those ballots. People voted for Biden and Republican candidates on the same ballot. Why didn't the Democrats change the entire ballot so Democrats beat Republicans so they had control of the House and Senate at the same time. That would have been the power grab, the way to achieve their evil goals."

Trump supporter looks at me like I have just spoken in some foreign language they have never heard. 

"You said they could rig any election. Are you saying with the power to do that they decided to just use it to elect Biden? That seems dumb. If they had this power to rig elections why didn't they rig the 2016 election for Hillary? You guys seem to think if they were going to rig anything they would have rigged it for her, but nope...she lost. You do know that the states all used the same voting methods and machines in 2016 that they used in 2020 right? So, are you saying the Democrats wanted Trump to win in 2016?"

"Well, I guess they only rigged the 2020 election they must not have had the power to rig the 2016 election." the now weirded out Trump supporter says. 

"OK, let me get this straight, in 2016 when the Obama administration was in charge and overseeing the election, we had a free and fair election. When the Trump administration was in charge and overseeing the 2020 election, we had a rigged election. So, with Trump in charge the Democrats could rig the election but with Obama in charge, the Democrats could not rig an election for Hillary, do I have that right?"

"What?" the now completely flummoxed Trump supporter says. 

"Trump's handpicked guy, a Republican, Chris Krebs, he was overseeing the election in 2020, and he said it was the most fair and fraud free election we have ever had. So, with Trump and his people overseeing the election, this was when the Democrats were able to rig it, right?" 

"Well, I think that..." the Trump supporter mumbles. 

"This is your position, that with Trump as president, with his handpicked Attorney General, his handpicked people, this was when the Democrats were able to steal an election by rigging it. They could not pull that off though for Hillary when Obama and his people were in charge. Are we in agreement on that?"

"I guess so." the Trumper says. 

Is it any wonder that Marc thinks that now Biden is an evil mastermind that is running all these criminal trials to get Trump? For Marc, Biden is both senile and a genius manipulating the justice system to get Trump. Biden probably was using a mind control machine on the Donald to make him strip down to his undies and sit on the bed waiting for Stormy to come out of the bathroom. Trump would never have done that on his own. Biden must have done something to get Trump to do that. 

Then Biden used his mind control device to get Trump to ask his people to pay off Daniels and McDougal so they would not discuss having sex with him. Then he used his mind control device to get Trump to sign all those checks out of his personal account to pay Cohen back for paying off Stormy. 

Yeah, I get it now, that's what happened!
