Holy shit can you guys imagine if the jury rules “not guilty, because you got the wrong fucking guy”? Luigi could probably run in 2028 and win.

He'd never defeat the Democrats' list of very strong candidates.
checks list
its just hillary again
Am I dumb or is AOC not an option
She is 100% an option, but not for the current Democrat party. They will push her our like they did Sanders.
They'd vote Trump before voting for AOC. At least that's my take from abroad.
And mine from not abroad.
The Dems are controlled opposition who are funded by the billionaires just like the Rs.
Democratic party needs to split up. Bernie has been calling on more senators and congressmen to go independent, but none have jumped off the rotten DNC ship.
We need the infrastructure. The parties are too entrenched in law and election structures...
So the only choice is to tea party them, build a left wing of the party and take over. And I think that's what AOC and Bernie are running around doing, but it's going to take time
In the meantime, we need to resist

And Biden.
After Kamala there's no way they'll have another female candidate. The American people would rather vote for all the adjectives that describe Trump than a woman.
If that's the lesson dems took from the election, dems are going to lose again.
Stop pushing far right republicans as the dem nominees, regardless of their supposed genitals.
Clinton and Harris are just fake smiles on a status quo neoliberal platform. Of course that didn't go anywhere. Elizabeth Warren might have stood a chance. AOC is outright popular now but I don't think she would have won, yet.

That's exactly why they would run another woman candidate. You don't think the dems are trying to win, do you?
It was quite a blow to my "all humans are inherently good" mindset, I'm now going with "all humans probably have some deeply rooted cultural biases".

After Kamala there’s no way they’ll have another female candidate.
Which is extra funny given that candidates like Gretchen Witmer, Liz Warren, and AOC are some of their most popular candidates the party still has to offer.
Gruesome Newsom is going to clinch then nomination on a platform of "America is a fundamentally misogynistic nation" and liberals are going to waltz into 2028 screaming "Vote for us! We hate women more than the Republicans!"

Lmao this guy thinks there will still be elections
There will still be elections -- they just won't be fair and legitimate elections.
50 States all went to the GOP... crazy how that happens now that Elon Musk counts the vote
Not 35 years of age or older enough
The law clearly doesn't matter anymore.
It does for the right/"wrong" people.
Only as long as those people keep pretending.
In reality everyone knows we can just do whatever.
So executing the rich and forcefully redistributing their wealth is a valid public policy now

If orangeboi runs, Luigi should run.
More like repeat the same action that happened to the CEO of United Healthcare.
Can you imagine?
Orangeboi:
word salad
Moderator:
trying not to have a stroke Your response, Mr. Mangione?
Luigi:
BAM
And then everyone clapped
*sigh*
A man can dream.

And if he were to run for a house seat, and we get 2/3 of congress to vote for a package to do this, we could make him president by impeaching and removing POTUS, VP, and have him be speaker of the house and succeed into the presidency for a special term.
Wishful thinking but it would technically be constitutional. I've tossed this idea and many others in my head about how to get massive support across the country to accomplish something crazy bold like this but I could go on and on and there's lots of what ifs

That would be a dream.
Sanders was the compromise choice
He isn't old enough.
The oblique implication in my comment is that if orangeboi (illegally) runs for a third term, then it also does not matter if Luigi (illegally) runs when he’s too young
Why not? He already illegally ran in 2024, and was illegally inaugurated...
14th Amendment violater
lol wow uh… you know, I guess you do have a point there 🫠
It's a threat to the poors. You hurt the rich, you'll be treated the same.
Sounds like they are saying we have nothing to lose.
I don't see a threat. I see permission.

It feels like they should be doing everything to avoid a mistrial.
Maybe less embarrassing than a not guilty verdict?
Depends if someone has had a firm word with the judge about what is going to happen.
I have a feeling for a while that Luigi is absolutely innocent... and you know what? If, and hopefully when, he is acquitted (no need for jury nullification, I am convinced that he really didn't do it), that would mean the real shooter got away with it.
And that is kinda nice to hear that you can off a powerful shitbag individual and escape in the 21st century. Assassinations of major figures by people who escape are so rare I can count them on one hand. One of them was literally the first ever murder by firearm in London. A16th century assassination of a nobleman who remains undiscovered.
I think the real Luigi likely trainhopped or otherwise entered the homeless underground, which would make him pretty untraceable. Many homeless are absolute masters on how to disappear/travel cross country for free.
Wow is this the best feds and NY state got here
🤡
Luigi did nothing wrong. He didn't kill that guy either.
Did anyone else notice on Reddit that whenever Luigi was mentioned there were a bunch of the same comments saying "this is old news if there were any updates we'd know about it". Meanwhile Luigi was getting censored super heavily. Starting to think those were all bots.
Reddit is an absolute hive of bot accounts and influencer accounts.
This is old news if there were any updates we'd know about it.
The bots are massive, it probably was a mix of bots and people who parrot bots thinking they are with the group
I stopped posting at reddit. I deleted all but one account that I use for porn and extremely niche shit. I don't use it to post in political stuff there because fuck them.
This is the way
