The (many) indictments of Donald Trump

[BowlBrother85]

What did Trump end up actually doing?

Donald Trump ended up losing the election, after pressuring his Attorney General to charge his opponent with a crime.

So, cry me a river about this "banana republic" outrage. Donald Trump was certainly not above doing it himself.

I assume you are referring to this exchange.

@kiddiedoc post was so incredibly asinine, it didn't warrant a serious response.

But I'll clarify my position. It is my firm belief that we are far better off now under Biden than we would have been at this point under a 2nd Trump term. It can neither be proven or disproven.

Stated another way, however bad you view things to be now, they would have been much worse under Trump.

So in summary, I'm for reducing unnecessary pain and suffering. That's why I'm an "anybody but Trumper".

You need psychiatric treatment.

he can't do it - that's the point. he can ask for it, wish for it, dream of it but he can't do it. he can not make it so

 

[BowlBrother85]

was there a politically motivated prosecution against Biden?

No, but it wasn't through a lack of effort from Donald Trump.

 

[volinbham]

No, but it wasn't through a lack of effort from Donald Trump.

so as I said - he didn't do it. it didn't happen. he's a politician doing politician things. he had no power to do it.

 

[BowlBrother85]

he can't do it - that's the point. he can ask for it, wish for it, dream of it but he can't do it. he can not make it so

But he tried to publicly pressure his Attorney General into doing it. You are excusing it, because it didn't succeed. That it failed, doesn't make Trump's intentions okay.

You ever watch anyone waste away and die from opiate addiction? Run a code on a Fentanyl overdose? How about the 70,000+ families that lost a parent due to Fentanyl last year?

No harm done by cutting off a confused child's penis or breasts? Sterilizing them? Driving them to commit senseless violence by pumping them with hormones?

You think anyone is hungry right now? More than 1 in 10 people can't afford to eat, now worsened due to skyrocketing grocery bills.

Oh, and the kids that you a-holes said would be fine if we kept them home and canceled school. Yeah, about that....

I'm done with your nonsense.

There is no way in hell that you would defend Biden for the same thing. This is partisanship on your part.

i'm not excusing it - I'm distinguishing between what is hoped for and what is.

until there's a prosecution there isn't a prosecution.

 

[luthervol]

why ignore what was posted? if his telling Barr to do something amounts to an actual prosecution then here he is fighting against a political prosecution.

such a dilemma

Trump has a decades long history of using legal threats to manipulate people and situations. He used them in 2016 and 2020 to manipulate his insanely gullible base.
Trump NEVER would want to follow through with prosecuting a political rival because he knows beyond a shadow of doubt that he has more guilt than the rest combined.

He played a stupid game, stupid people let him temporarily win, now he is finally suffering the consequences.

 

[OrangeBoro]

Had Trump just run as a D he would have been safe from all these prosecutions and fake indictments

 

[volinbham]

There is no way in hell that you would defend Biden for the same thing. This is partisanship on your part.

I'm not defending Trump - I'm explaining the difference between what a politician says and what the justice system does.

 

[luthervol]

You need psychiatric treatment.

If you are the norm, then you would be correct.

No one should be prosecuted more than Hillary and Biden but they are safe because of the party they are in. I only hope that changes and they are hauled off to prison

Give it a rest. The explosion occurred under Trump's watch.

Just make sure you are wearing one of those bright pretty flags when the crap goes down.

This thread is gonna be a monster thread..uggghhh.

Seriously? The thousands chanting. I posted a link earlier about the response when he backed off after he won the nomination.
Even Breibart slammed him for going back on his promise.

That doesn't even make sense.

Will do.

I’m just glad the country is experiencing so much prosperity under Biden.

oh the "lock her up" was a legal threat. okay

so I guess Bragg campaigning on locking up Trump is dicey too?
