You killing the dude! Is his show of remorse not enough? We cruel creatures. Yes he did bad but will his total destruction serve justice? 😧

What’s the over/under on golden showers coming his way?

At this point he's probably just out there committing various non-violent/non-sexual offences in the hope that his name will end up being associated with something other than him being a predator.

Eh... but you can’t really define bribery 🤣🤣🤣

I'll be 'pissed', if he gets off this time.

Bribery is such a presidential crime
