Given that the President is a convicted felon who maintains that what he did was fine, and that he has pardoned thousands of unrepentant criminals, and that the vast majority of his party enthusiastically endorsed all this, I would say "pro-crime" is an understatement.

#33Earlier quoted context omitted.
on a daily basis the current US president commits treason against the people of the united states, which im pretty sure even presidential immunity doesnt protect against. Just one of the shady dealings with foreign monarchies, laudering their bribes directly to the president thru billion dollar purchases of worthless crypto "assets" ala world liberty financial; should land the president and his entire family in capit…
don't forget Trump's 90 minute call w/ Putin on the 4th of July a few days ago https://www.cnn.com/2026/07/05/europe/putin-trump-call-indep... or that time multiple US congressmen were forced to spend the 4th in Moscow https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/395719-gop-senators-visi...
I don't understand why people keep using things like this as their examples.
JFK met with Khrushchev. Bush Senior and Reagan had regular contact with Gorbachev. It's not weird for heads of state to talk to each other.
What's weird is for Trump to be paying tax dollars to cancel energy projects because he doesn't like windmills or using the FCC to investigate media outlets who criticize him.
There are plenty of good examples to use that it makes no sense to resort to evidence-free innuendo.

#35Ironically, it's not just the ineffectuallity of the DOJ (intentional, in that case), it's the ineffectuality of the political competition, the Democratic Party, to hold the GOP accountable. The Dems inability to cash in on these things is so absurd that people just accept it: The Trump administration and GOP are letting a company get away with contaminating baby formula . That should be repeated by the Dems from now…
The Supreme Court gave Trump immunity, stymieing Democratic attempts at holding him accountable for crimes he was accused of in his first presidency. Holding him accountable this time would require some workaround for the Supreme Court.

#37> criminal case against Abbott Laboratories over contaminated baby formula In Communist China they would be shot
Hey, here in America, sometimes CEOs get shot as well.
Here in America, if you or I get shot, a detective gets assigned the case along with 30 other cases on their desk. When a CEO gets shot, the largest city assigns an unlimited number of police to the case to find the person...

Yea things like this make more sense when you model the Democratic Party mostly as controlled opposition for the actual uniparty outside of a handful of instances

All the Dems have to do is kick the DEI/woke, open borders, etc. contingent out of their party and "cashing in" will commence.

Yup. Once you realize neither party actually cares about any of the top debated political issues (individuals do, but the party doesn't) but they thrust them in everyone's face day in and day out BEACUSE the country is divided neatly in half and they are emotionally charged: abortions, LGBT rights, gun control.
Let the plebs wear themselves out so money can be extracted and power can be used without any fuss.
