    This isn’t fucking cryptic at all now, is it?? Our media is such a shitshow.

    Everybody knows what this is fucking for, and that’s even more obvious since Trump flipped the fuck out on the media for reporting it and made a weak ass excuse that it was merely thanks for being swearing Trump in on inauguration day… as if that’s not something that would be done anyway and doesn’t necessarily need a “thanks.”

        “Though Trump didn’t specify what he was thanking Roberts for, it comes on the heels of a series of Supreme Court decisions that paved a path for Trump to seek another term in office with unchecked immunity.”

          To clarify for people, “another term” refers to his current term, not to a hypothetical third, as of yet.

          On the heels of, apparently meaning after a whole ass year. You’re going to give a lot of people heart attacks making it look like they approved a third term.

            Yeah, they should have used “second term” instead of “another term”, I was confused at first.

            The official acts ruling basically destroyed the processes to maybe convict him for January 6th, which could have precluded another term (another meaning his current, second term, another other than this first, nothing about a third term). I first thought they were saying another one beyond his current, then realized they were just talking about his second term

            It might have done nothing anyway in time, but that ruling certainly did the process no favors.
