If Biden is responsible for this, why was Michael Cohen charged, convicted and jailed for his role in these crimes DURING the Trump administration?

And this is how dumb you MAGAs are.

it's so chilling: if they can convict Donald Trump for the crimes he committed, they can convict any criminal for the crimes they committed

Folks, if anyone is wondering whether your vote matters, remember this.

Because Black Americans voted, I am president, Kamala Harris is a historic vice president, and Donald Trump is a loser.
