Part of me wonders how surprised he was at the verdict.

He’s so deluded, I bet he thought he’d walk. These fuckers think everyone thinks just like they do.

Yeah. A common trend is that these folks don't understand that actions have consequences. I remember when the Great Temper Tantrum of January 6th happened I heard stories of people genuinely surprised the police weren't on their side.

I was genuinely surprised that the DOJ came after these assholes. They did nothing about the explosion of hate groups and militias when Obama was president and it seemed the government was genuinely afraid to hold them accountable because they were armed and deranged.
