Federal Indictment of Donald Trump

[evillawyer]

Hopefully the protests stay as most peaceful as antifa and BLM protests

The Trump protestors are either all in jail from January 6th or unable to get leave from the retirement home.

I really think that the red hat crowd thinks that "buuutt Hillary" is a cogent legal defense and when it doesn't work will riot again.

Heard the mugshot won't be made public.

It will be leaked ....

I didn't think they were going to do that.

The ones who can get there are going to have a busy summer. Next up Atlanta and DC.

And possibly New Jersey if they decide to search Bedminster and charge him for the stuff there.

 

[Hunerwadel]

Imagine being so invested in the cult that you have to keep supporting Trump just to save face.

I disagree with you but, you're okay for an Alabamian.

Just think of the trauma this will cause their courthouse staff ... and all the tears that will be shed. So sad.

I can honestly say I never thought of files being there, but it doesn't seem probable. He just had his minions pack everything up in a week and headed to Florida because it was winter.

The indictment says he loaded several boxes on a plane and flew them to Bedminster before the FBI came to receive the false certification. Pretty sure Bedminster is also where he was caught on tape confessing to knowing the documents were classified and that he could no longer declassify them.

For those wanting to complain about special treatment for some, ask Reality Winner whether she got this deal.

Gotta give it to the guy, he loves winning. And he's definitely winning the indictment count for former POTUSes.

Trump is a marketeer, and in apparently marketing types believe any publicity is good. You are just looking from a different frame of reference - it hurts to say it but actually a more reasonable frame of reference ... although for the completely wrong reason. You remember the story about the king with no clothes; it basically describes pretty much any politician, tyrant, or other self acclaimed "leader" to a T. It takes a lot of arrogance and narcissism to actually believe you can run a country or corporation (that you didn't build) better than everyone else.

 

[AM64]

Heard the mugshot won't be made public. Probably no perp walk either. Such a bummer.

Why would you need a mugshot of Trump? Everybody knows what he looks like ... unfortunately. He's probably got more pictures than any other human in history should anyone forget what he looks like. Besides a picture of him with his mouth shut would probably confuse most people; best disguise for Trump is, in fact, Trump with his mouth closed.

'Food for everyone!': Trump heads to famous Cuban restaurant Versailles in Miami after pleading not guilty to 37 counts - and customers sing him Happy Birthday

Former President Donald Trump left federal court Tuesday and made a surprise stop at the iconic Cuban restaurant Versailles in Miami before departing Florida for his Bedminster, New Jersey resort.

There he prayed with religious leaders, took a photo with mixed martial arts fighter Jorge Masvidal, complained about a 'government that's out of control' and was sang 'Happy Birthday.'

'Food for everyone!' the ex-president exclaimed at one point, as he pushed through the crowd of supporters and reporters, noting that a 'great group' was assembled.

Asked how he thought it was doing - after spending the day getting arrested, fingerprinted and charged with 37 federal crimes - Trump responded, 'I think it's going great.'

'I think it's a rigged deal here,' he said. 'I'm goint to make a little speech tonight in Bedminster and I hope you're going to be there,' the ex-president also said.

F*** it. Let him go.

I think you're referring to the folktale "The Emperor Has No Clothes" by Hans Christian Anderson. It's a morality tale concerning people who are afraid of speaking truth to power, for fear of being judged inferior by their peers. Ultimately, a child is the one who has to acknowledge reality. A little girl is able to speak the truth, when adults won't, because she hasn't yet been groomed to learn such a fear.

That story is a perfect allegory of the current state of the Republican Party.

I was just at this restaurant a few weeks ago. Been there a couple of time now. Great scene. Cubans love Trump partially because they know the other side represents what they fled.

Yep, and I even remembered that it was by Hans Christian Andersen. There are several good points made in that story. The one I chose was that arrogance often blinds the arrogant, and you are right that sometimes it takes a child to innocently say what others don't wish to acknowledge. Anyway it perfectly describes DC and the swamp creatures (although many at some point know full well their deceit) and a lot of the electorate who choose not to acknowledge the depth of the corruption. A lot of us aren't actually fooled by the foolery; we just hold our breath and vote for the least evil path according to our own set of beliefs or prejudices ... yours and mine are just poles apart. Although I do believe many politicians have understood their deceit, I think at some point they go beyond reality and believe they actually are capable of walking on water.

Not a defense.

Not a defense.

Selective targeting is very offensive, though. Prosecute all for the same offense ... or none. Excuses and attitudes are immaterial; they either broke the law or they didn't.
