Is the net closing in…

…on Trump going down or ever standing for POTUS again? Let’s face it, this account of Jan 6th is pretty damning:

‘The supporters did not want to enter the secure perimeter, Hutchinson testified, because many were armed with knives, blades, pepper spray and, as it later turned out, guns, and did not want to surrender their weapons to the Secret Service to attend the rally.

“I don’t fucking care that they have weapons. They’re not here to hurt me,” Trump exclaimed in an extraordinary outburst of fury, according to Hutchinson. “Let my people in. They can march to the Capitol from here. Let the people in. Take the fucking mags [magnetometers] away.”

The response from the former president is significant for two main reasons: it makes clear that he had been informed that his supporters were carrying weapons, and that he knew those armed people intended to make a non-permitted march to the Capitol.’

When you are a desperatate narcissist you will do anything to be proven right and in this case cling on to power, always find it strange that our crop of right wingers on here never say a word against Trump, then again not surprised really.

Speaking of such, I see Alex Belfield is to be sentenced this coming Friday. What a conman he turned out to be.

This is what annoys me most about content creators like him and Brand. Manipulative charlatans conning people for personal gain, IMO. I have friends who have fallen for their BS and I’ve gone from being annoyed with them over the years to more recently genuinely feeling a bit sorry for them. These people are making them more paranoid, untrusting and anxious by the week. It’s healthy to question what you read in the press and watch via mainstream media, but lunacy to go completely the other way and believe any unsubstantiated guff some unqualified bod parrots on youtube.

They prey on the minds of those who don’t trust the more mainstream media. It’s good to be sceptical of the media. However, blindly not agreeing with media output because it’s mainstream displays very little critical thinking, and they are being as unthinking as the ‘sheep’ they decry for watching BBC/CNN/Sky News. You have to assess stories for evidence, logic and merit, regardless of the source, and shunning BBC News for some naysayer on Youtube displays little in the way of scepticism, in its true meaning.

I don’t believe any of the rubbish made up about President Trump. They are so worried that he could get elected again, they’ll try any old shite.

One problem. Trump’s admitted to taking the secret documents through his tweets.

I doubt the ‘sceptics’ have any shred of evidence for their assertions. Just baseless inklings, which isn’t a sceptical or thoughtful position at all really.

‘displays very little critical thinking’. Absolutely agree – have the same conversation with friends who haven’t gone full tin hat

It’s a pity the USA doesn’t follow a similar example with you know who if or when he gets to trial ( probably never knowing the power of the dollar in USA circles ) and if found guilty. Can’t help but think a billionaire might get different treatment in the good old land of the free.

And liar Biden and his crackhead son?

That Belfield went way OTT ,the bit about harrassing his pregnant wife and stealing pics of one of his victims kids to use as a video header went beyond decency and led to a real sense of threat to his family, .I cannot believe that anyone is defending him but there are morons out there victim shaming.

did he wind a crowd up so much they attempted a coup,did he steal and refuse to hand over government documents? Oddly denying he had them at the same time as demanding them back.Hunter Biden seems in no way blameless but he doesn’t have his finger on the button and is only the son,not the president .
I’m no fan of Biden and have nothing in the game when it comes to protecting him ,he’s a bit of a Kier Starmer in my opinion but come on, a False equivalence to take the heat of a complete mad man is a bit bonkers.

Belfield is an odious gobshite, but in my opinion five and a half years is it too long.

He’ll serve half that ,his victim is still being abused because of him. I have only read the account of one of his victims,in this case there several .
trust me ,it’s an uneasy feeling having people you don’t know threaten you ,I got plenty on here over the years

Poor response from alcy, struggle to pin much on Biden compared to crazy Trump. Your backing a loser there alcy but the facts may escape you on this one however that won’t stop you will it.

[Deereyme66]

Anyone in any doubt of how serious this was – please read this, especially the impact it had on his victims. Some came VERY close to killing themselves.

If you wanna defend this prick, you're as sick as him. https://t.co/8qWh9eNUBs

Final tweet from me on this today…here is my reaction to the sentencing 3 hours after the event. A calmer summary of the effect Alex Belfield had on so many people and my thoughts on sentencing.https://t.co/pntenUeV1a
