MAGA definition: Make America Great Again

Acolytes definition:
  1. noun
    a devoted follower or assistant

  2. noun
    someone who assists a priest or minister in a liturgical service; a cleric ordained in the highest of the minor orders in the Roman Catholic Church but not in the Anglican Church or the Eastern Orthodox Churches. (not relevant)

Obviously your statement was derogatory in nature and purpose. Please explain what is bad about trying to Make America Great Again!

I will plead guilty to being a (follower or assistant) to Making America Great Again!
I used the term to describe the devoted followers and ardent supporters of Donald Trump. I apologize if this was unclear.

There's no time limit in reaching a conclusion as an uninvolved bystander. And one can remain undecided between guilty and not guilty. And guilty or not guilty doesn't change whether or not it was a proper trial.
But normally, one can only call a trial improper when there is a specific example of impropriety. Not merely disliking the verdict.

And the more unreasonable the sentence, the more it's going to look like trying to stop Trump from reaching his goal.
There are set sentencing guidelines. We'll see if Judge Merchan deviates from them.

So far, contrary to the views of Trump's faithful, Judge Merchan has been overly fair and even deferential, at times.

Of the only two options we have right now Trump is the only one who can HELP make America Great Again. The current occupant has put this nation in decline.

A list of impropriety has already been posted and I'm at liberty to agree with it. And to mull it all over in the meantime. Or remain undecided.

As you say, contrary to the views of others.

Well, whether or not that's true is kinda off topic here.

-- A2SG, and has no bearing on any pooible procedural or legal irregularities that some imagine occurred in the trial Trump was found guilty in....

Well, some have been suggested, but the evidence of impropriety, or more relevant, procedural or legal irregularities, has yet to surface.

We’ll be sorry?
okay.
Two things: Those are your words, not mine; When I mention Democrats, I'm not talking about voters that call themselves Democrats. I'm talking about the party leadership and elected representatives. Kinda like when I call out a pro football team as "bad". I'm talking about the team and management, not the fans. :)

It has too and it's been posted. No one expects you to agree with any of it, but you can't say legal experts and professionals haven't pointed it out.

No one "learned their lesson". This isn't some sort of plan or conspiracy.

Trump's trial wasn't televised because trials aren't televised in NY state.

Trump trial: Why can't Americans see or hear what is going on inside the courtroom?

Trump's federal trials won't be televised either as the federal courts prohibit television cameras.

If he makes it that far, the Georgia trial will be televised, as all of the proceedings so far have been televised.
Here is another perspective may be this one. He is an eyewitness to what was happening in the courtroom when the press was cleared out:

It is obvious you have ignored the analysis of Alan Dershowitz who is a liberal law professor with 60 years experience and who actually sat in the court room. What are your qualifications? This was a sham of a trial and just because a few liberally minded posters on the forum love the verdict it will not change the facts.

No, I haven't ignored it. But, I do recognize that Detshowitz is a defense attorney, not a prosecutor, and therefore his analysis would come from that perspective.

I bet he's sure he could get Trump's case reversed on appeal, and would be more than happy to be hired for the case.

What are your qualifications? This was a sham of a trial and just because a few liberally minded posters on the forum love the verdict it will not change the facts.
My qualifications, I bet, equal your own.

I'm simply not seeing any procedural or legal irregularities that might warrant a reversal of the verdict, but I'm more than willing to accept the verdict of the appeals court, when it eventually comes.

-- A2SG, facts do seem in short supply, though we do have an overabundance of opinions....

I'm no bully. You have been talking for pages and pages. I am giving you feedback. You can listen or not. Peace
Yeah you've just been flaming me ie "You have been talking for pages and pages". Keep it up. You obviously need to get something out of your system and I'll be your doormat ;).

Dershowitz is always automatically dismissed by the left. There's also Ben Shapiro who's a lawyer, but same thing. They're both "red hats" "MAGAs" whatever. They are to be shunned.

I've posted Dershowitz and Shapiro who's a lawyer. But that doesn't matter because you'll either say none of it is true, or pretend like it wasn't posted, like now. It's a total pain in the neck to deal with that shtick.

That depends on your perspective. But when you have democratically elected government you always get the government you deserve. So go ahead and put Trump in, because you definitely deserve a Trump administration.

Yes, I've had enough of the Trump delusion. I like Christian Forums and would love to continue enjoying these forums. If we can't weed out some nonsense I will have to leave. This is my motivation. Nobody is a doormat unless they choose to be. If you insist on the incessant rambling I will likely call it out again. It's how the good Lord made me. Whinge all you like. Have a good day.
