It was part of his memoir written at the age of 22. He was trying to sound cool and clever and add color to his grandmother's character because she asked a 6 year old if he wanted to suck dicks. I wouldn't think too hard about it.

Thank goodness for Twitter, he lost $1.7 billion per month in the first year (including valuation) so now he has less to spend on Trump.
Prices decreased last month. Not inflation decreased...prices. Deflation happened last month.
Inflation has been tamed.
I wasn't arguing. Just bringing the relevant polling to the table. 30% black support would be a landslide election for a Republican. 13% when he won 12% in 2020 doesn't even seem worth remarking upon. So I think that's an important distinction.
We did not vote Gore or Hillary into office. They got more popular votes and lost in electoral votes, and only electoral votes count for president. They lost fair and square, in the system we have.
No the difference between republics and monarchies is not "talking about assassinating rivals." You can say anything, that is anyone's right. In the context from above, this difference is why political assassination is not acceptable in a republic. It would be insane to say that political assassination is OK if the person had ever talked about assassinating rivals. The penalty for distasteful speech is not death.
Trump was asking Pence to return legally cast electoral votes to the states for reconsideration on false pretenses. Yes obviously bad and we don't want a president who would do such a thing. But not assassination worthy.
While they await sentencing? If a judge allows it, obviously yes. People have lives and jobs, if they might not even get prison time it would be cruel to force them into all the downsides of prison time (lose your job, child care difficulties) and then let them go.
Trump would be more impacted by his inability to campaign, but we only have one justice system and I don't want to betray my beliefs on how the justice system works just because I don't like this guy's politics.
Biden is winning black voters 64% to 13% in this poll that has a crazy amount of Kennedy voters https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2024/07/11/amid-doubts-about-bidens-mental-sharpness-trump-leads-presidential-race/
But that's bad because he won 87% to 12% in 2020.
But we did vote Trump out of office, and he left. That's the difference between Republics and Monarchies.
For a while they were like Maroon 5 level over exposed. I don't think I've heard a song from them in a while though.
"Convicted criminal" who is "above the law?"
Seems like he was convicted, thus not above the law.
You keep him from being president by getting enough people to vote against him, or you accept the will of the people.
The 2nd Amendment was originally to make sure militias weren't disarmed, in a time when militias were more relevant. Has nothing to do with political assassination.
Too bad Jesus only came to America after the ascension to teach the Native Americans how to build mounds. He could have used some Freedom of Speech rights.
