We start this week with a tweet you may have seen in last week’s comments (tip of the TOTW hat to BOHICA). I alreadt had it bookmarked, and I think it’s good enough to bear repeating, so that’s what I did.

I guess this week we’re all waiting to see if Trump will finally be indicted for something (not the really big stuff, of course. Garland is too scared to do that anytime soon, if ever. But still, something at least). Of course, he’s not going to be arrested—rich and famous people are always asked politely if they wouldn’t mind please turning themselves in. But it finally seems like there’s a chance, after all this time, that Trump will face trial for something you or I would have been arrested for in a matter of hours.

There won’t be any resolution of this or any other case against Trump for some time, probably years. Rich and famous people are allowed to delay legal proceedings much more than you or I. And no, Trump’s not going to jail—again, that’s for normal people like you and me. But, despite the doom-and-gloom speculation that this will somehow help Trump in the general election—no. The average voter—even the average GOP voter—is not going to be inclined to support someone who has to tell a judge and jury why paying hush money to a pornstar is actually OK. And his cult followers’ opinion won’t matter any more than it already does. What are they going to do—vote harder?

Anyway, I’ll get down off this soapbox and let y’all get to what you came for. Without further ado, here are your Tweets of the Week.

x I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Commercial banks on fire off the shoulder of Santa Clara. I watched tech firms glitter in the dark near the Golden Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. — Mac William Bishop (@MacWBishop) March 12, 2023

x DoorDash delivery for Ron DeSantis pic.twitter.com/vg8zvewF78 — Dr. Bucky Isotope, Professional Pizza Critic (@BuckyIsotope) March 13, 2023

x We are living IN a parody.



Fox News is LITERALLY pitching Ron DeSantis softball questions. https://t.co/IXdOmb4XBU — Dan Slott (@DanSlott) March 13, 2023

x But enough about DeSantis… https://t.co/Otem8sqkPP — Turing Pest 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻 (@Krikalitika) March 14, 2023

x I don't believe this story because it implies the McDonalds ice cream machine was actually working pic.twitter.com/nGcYoscvn5 — Right Wing Cope (@RightWingCope) March 14, 2023

x they actually have a very simple definition of “wokeness” they just cant use it publicly for pretty obvious reasons https://t.co/6K96WSMsAs — Andrew Lawrence (@ndrew_lawrence) March 15, 2023

x In fairness, "woke" means different things to different people. To me it means when a cartoon character doesn't have big titties. For Bethany it means when a black or gay person exists and she catches wind of it https://t.co/Yb1xqgr1RC — maple cocaine (@maplecocaine) March 15, 2023

x go fash, lose cash https://t.co/wMxAB4Dtpu — Bill Corbett (@BillCorbett) March 16, 2023

x My favorite thing to do during some dude's sexist rant is to ask what they do for a living and if it's not building bombs, I call them a sissy. — dire wolf 🔆 (@ADDiane) March 16, 2023

x Everyone point & laugh at the dipshits who pretend WWIII, a Civil War, & a Great Depression are simultaneously happening every single day because they are humiliated and angry that all the pissing in their tinfoil panties doesn't change the fact Biden is their goddamn president. — 🔥Reverend Dr. Aiden (@SweetFnLucifer) March 17, 2023

x Marjorie Taylor Greene puts the nut in nutjob, the loon in lunatic, the numb in numbskull, the lame in lamebrain, and the sedition in Congress. pic.twitter.com/ve13S1ZcN6 — Middle Age Riot (@middleageriot) March 17, 2023

x They're saying Trump will be arrested on Tuesday, but I think it'd be funnier to wait till Wednesday and arrest him on Ramadan. — Fifty Shades of Whey (@davenewworld_2) March 18, 2023

x They’re not going to handcuff Trump because they can’t find a pair small enough. — The USA Singers (@TheUSASingers) March 18, 2023

x kinda miffed that as a full fledged member of antifa i have to go masquerade as a trump supporter protesting his arrest in a few days what happened to two weeks notice ffs — dh 🎤🦆 (@hurlarious) March 18, 2023
