In the world of presidential health, distrust and speculation run so rampant that even Mr. Trump’s online assurance that he was fine was immediately explained away as part of a cover-up.

    “There’s always been this wishful-thinking industry around Trump’s health and Trump’s legal woes,” said Mike Rothschild, a journalist and author who studies conspiracy movements. “There’s been this far-left influencer sphere that is constantly pumping up the idea that Trump is about to go to prison or the walls are closing in.”

    Actually pretty sure the fucking assholes who kept chanting “tRuSt tHe pRoCeSs” were the centrist pro-business democrats and the people who thought Merrick Garland wasn’t absolutely fucking this all up.

    Further, him deserving to go to prison is why people were fucking hopeful that he would.

    Anyway, at least the idea that can “trust the process” is finally dead and fucking buried where it should have been thirty god damned years ago.

    But seriously, how long is the NYT gonna sanewash this shit and act like Trump isn’t an abusive criminal who has successfully abused the system to put himself above the law? Now literally comparing the need to put a criminal like him behind bars and bar him from running for President to fringe conspiracy theories. What a crock of shit.
