Nice to see Baghdad Bob still has an audience ...
You are still here too! We get along great as long as we agree with everything you say! If not, out come the names. So much like your MAGA Master...
Ahh, that old lie.
Sorry but that misses the ballpark, boyo.
I'm not voting for Trump, I just won't gang-rape him like you want to do.
That doesn't make me 'MAGA', but it says some sad things about you.
The knuckle-dragging posts by the tribal binaries than cannot apply critical thinking gets exhausting. Not wanting to become a fascist-style banana republic is not related to one's love of Trump. Some things are more important than immature political opinions.
Yeah, allowing a candidate to substitute electors of his choosing after losing screams sophisticated Democracy! "No Banana Republic Here"...
i would ask you if you would have arrested Stacey Abrams but your too chicken **** to answer.
What are you talking about??? What has Stacey Abrams done to be arrested? I guess I missed a press cycle? Fill me in on what she did and I will tell you
As for the chicken **** part, chicken **** of what? Your scathing wit? You guys really take yourself a too seriously. Don't tell me your father questioned you once, once...
she claimed an election was stolen you moron regard, which is for what Trump was arrested. I mean are you really this stupid or just playing regressive on TV?
Geez, you are stupid. Trump is not indicted for saying he won. He is indicted for what he did.
Trump was charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States, witness tampering, conspiracy against the rights of citizens, and obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding. None of those are 1st Amendment or based on him saying the elections was stolen. Get it?
nope, maybe, nope, nope, and maybe..
Will be convicted on all counts in a beltway courtroom.
Trump Gave Them a SwordIs he being unjustly pursued? Are his legal woes his own fault? Yes and yes.Donald Trump's legal problems just keep mounting. He's been indicted three times: twice by a federal special prosecutor in separate cases in Miami and D.C., and once by the Manhattan district attorney. A fourth indictment may be on the way soon from the district attorney in Atlanta. He's facing a civil fraud suit by the attorney general of New York. He's already been found liable for sexual battery and defamation in a civil lawsuit by E. Jean Carroll in federal court in Manhattan.
Is Trump being unjustly pursued? Are his legal woes his own fault? Yes and yes.The overzealousness of Trump's antagonists is undeniable. One of the bedrock values of our rule-of-law system is supposed to be equal justice under law. That means the rich, the famous, and the powerful should get the same law as the poor and the obscure neither less justice nor more. It means that the law knows no political party or faction.
Human nature being what it is, real justice rarely conforms perfectly to the ideal, but we still expect prosecuting authorities to labor to
appear fair, impartial, and evenhanded. No fair-minded observer would conclude that this is how the prosecuting authorities have treated our 45th president.
Trump has been under essentially perpetual investigation since he won the 2016 election, largely by people who refused to accept its outcome. He was dogged for two years by Robert Mueller's Russiagate probe, which arose out of FBI misconduct in obtaining warrants from the FISA court on the basis of presenting dubious evidence from foreign cutouts for the Hillary Clinton campaign. In spite of Mueller's pedigree as a gray eminence of law enforcement under past Republican administrations, the investigation didn't improve from there, chasing a nonexistent crime (collusion) for which Mueller never developed solid evidence.
The Manhattan district attorney's office, under Cyrus Vance Jr., launched a criminal investigation into Trump's business practices. Vance consulted a "brain trust" of people outside his office, including veterans of the Mueller probe, whose background was not in pursuing the topics of Vance's investigation but in pursuing the man. He hired two outside prosecutors just to investigate Trump; one of them came out of retirement to work without pay just to get the Donald. In 2021, Vance indicted the Trump Organization and its CFO, Allen Weisselberg, for comparatively minor tax charges involving Weisselberg's compensation. When Vance's successor, Alvin Bragg, declined to bring charges involving an alleged fraudulent overstatement of Trump's business assets, however, the two outside prosecutors quit publicly, and one of them released a public memo and a book that argued for charging Trump.
New York attorney general Letitia James repackaged the failed criminal charges as a civil fraud case, in spite of the problem that dogged the criminal prosecution: Even if Trump lied to the big banks that lent him money, they never lost a penny on the deal, and they were sophisticated financial institutions that knew what kind of man they were lending to.
