The women on the View must be cultists bc they defend Biden at allllll costs.

[@amercanmade2685]

No MAGA is the catch word. It is all about AMERICA FIRST. That is how we get to MAGA. By the Federal Goverment stopping anything that does not directly improve the lives of American Citizens. Not citizens of any other Nation. No more Trade deals where American does not come out on top. President Trump will go down in History as the President that set America on its course to the new Century. Ridding the world of the WHO the WTO of NATO of the UN and I can hope that the good people of Europe rid themselves of the EU. And it looks like that just may be a reachable goal. Remember America is more like TX and FL them CA. And where America goes so goes the world. All these political Persecutions have done nothing to hurt President Trump. What they have don was to make him stronger. And also brought millions of Americans to the America First GOP. As for this act of election interference in NYC. It has done nothing but backfire as did the rest of the Political persecutions that has been aimed at President Trump. I doubt there will be a Guilty/Innocent verdict. I see the reality of a Hung Jury. And that will end these political persecutions.

Actually, that's exactly the Speaker, or any representative's, job when a blatantly obvious, partisan, lawfare type of trial goes against a private citizen... because if a sham of a trial against Trump, you better believe they'll do it to you and you want a Congressional representative there to support YOU. Besides which, he would be representative of the constitutes of Louisiana in his district, not necessarily as the Speaker.
