 So you did a bunch of things to help him, but won’t vote to free him because of your principles? 

Why? 
 A couple obvious ones off the top of my head.  Ross's freedom is not on the ballot.  Trump says a lot of things and unique to him... he had 4 years to do this task you are confident he will do in the future.  I don't care who you vote for and I still think it is "cool" to vote... I just don't think Ross is on the ballot so I would rather donate to his cause than pretend any politician let alone the orange one will address the issue.  Good day  
 He very much is on the ballot though in a way he was not before. Trump never made a campaign promise about Ross in 2016 or in 2020. 

2024 is different. 
 I will continue to vote with my economic energy and you can arrive at the location they tell you and pick 1 of the people they let you pick from and we can both go back to our "freedoms" and wait to see what happens.  I will cheer as hard as I want when he walks free regardless of the goat paths you or I take to wish for a better outcome.  A small injustice  will have been corrected when that day comes.  I don't need to have an orange stained hand to get there.  Also I happen to sit on a part of the planet that because of the way that the "system" works  my vote will not impact the outcome.  so I found the way that works for me.    Assume others have done the same.. 
 You didn’t respond to my claim. 
 if your claim was that he was on the ballot. or that 2024 is different ...  I did respond...to the claim and more..  sorry if it is not obvious    I do wonder how you bought in so hard.  but that is your journey  
 Bitcoiner’s who support Trump aren’t bought into anything. Trump isn’t using us, we’re using Trump. 
 Yeah. I have been watching....  Great job, keep it up    /eof. https://m.primal.net/KZnd.jpg  
 have fun with your crypto and everything else you're playing with 
 i have seen some indication of this but can U explain ^ this further in this space?  t-y HODL 
 Politicians are for sale. Bitcoiners have donated heavily to trump. 
 well said t-y 
 I think it’s odd you don’t see that he’s a schemer & liar. 

NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump became the first former American president to be convicted of felony crimes Thursday as a New York jury found him guilty of all 34 charges in a scheme to illegally influence the 2016 election through a hush money payment to a porn actor who said the two had sex.



 
 Yeah, what did your principles ever do for you?
