Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Yup exactly. Nothing to do with if what he believes is true or not. But that's what he believes. He has done numerous things that deserve jail for the rest of his life and all his assets seized.
Unfortunately the things that have currently "gottim" aren't those things. Those cases are still working through the courts slowly or not at all. Property valuation fraud is the name of the game in the US for a developer. Insulting someone is the American way.
The reason they got Al Capone was taxes. The government looked at him, said he was guilty but couldn't prove it. So then found other charges just to get him in jail and threw the book at him. This happens to brown and black people all the time. Looking suspicious is enough to find crimes you're guilty of. What is happening to Trump right now is similar. He's being punished for things that no normal person would be punished for. It's only because they want to get him. He has a point that he is being victimized and anyone who has been victimized by the injustices of the US system recognizes it.
Hopefully the cases with actual merit, that do exist and he's overwhelming guilty by admission, resolve soon so he can't play this card anymore.
