    Sounds like we should have gone harder. Maybe this time we will.

    Though I would probably be pretty happy to see like trump and Mike Johnson convicted and executed by firing squad, even if a bunch of others escaped.

      trump and Mike Johnson convicted and executed by firing squad

      Trump will probably die of old age, sadly. Vance might get to be tried though, if he takes over the regime.

      But they won’t be shot. They’ll be hanged. Execution by firing squad is a military “distinction” - at least when it’s carried out as part of a lawful sentencing process - and it’s considered one notch above hanging, which is reserved for common criminals and is applied to particularly disgusting characters as a mark of shame.

      That’s why a lot of Nazis were hung rather than shot. I don’t think we’ll think of high-ranking MAGA officials as worthy of a firing squad.
