A reader notes:

Trump is responsible for a ‘bloody insurrection’ (per John Boehner). The Republican former Speaker of the House blames Trump and his lies about election fraud for the January 6th riot at the Capitol, writing that the former President “incited that bloody insurrection for nothing more than selfish reasons, perpetuated by the bulls*** he’d been shoveling since he lost a fair election the previous November.”

Well these are the allegations, and there seems to be an inordinate amount of evidence in support of them.

If any other American had done anything remotely like this, he’d have been in prison within days of when the proof came to light. Yet it remains in question if Trump will ever spend a minute of his life behind bars.

This doesn’t happen in countries in which the rule of law is meaningful.

Here, Trump urges voters to “cheat like hell” to help the Republicans win the 2026 primaries.

I have never understood how anyone, regardless of how unintelligent and mean-spirited, could vote for Trump. Now, this whole concept is even harder to grasp.
