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.

Fraudulent prosecution is a thing, so this particular prosecution is fraudulent. Hmmm, seems like you missed a few steps there.
Look at the documents case. They bent over backwards to try and get those documents back quietly and let Trump off the hook. If you or I had those documents, we wouldn't even be given the opportunity to hand them over. We would have SWAT coming through our door, and we would be hauled straight to solitary. A two tiered Justice system exists, but it isn't what folks like you think.
That's the end of my patience for taking you seriously.
Of all of the things, the document case is the only one that works, the problem is that all the various presidents have been guilty of it, and Hillary did much worse and had nothing done to her.
But you need to look at the combination of all of the cases, and how they have half a billion on two bul1shit cases. The problem is the MAGA people are going to be correct that the election was tampered with if trump loses. I am a trump voter, but I can see the dangers.
Wait, what did Clinton do that was worse?
She had a server of secret or top secret (I dont know which) information at her house and in her email. And when the government asked for the data, they destroyed some of the evidence.
Mhmm. Interesting 🤔
There is a big difference between civil and criminal cases. Anyways, the fact that he was found liable in both cases would tend to indicate they weren't "bullshit". In fact, they were both absolutely straightforward cases with solid evidence that Trump did exactly what he was accused of.
I really, really don't give a shit what MAGA morons think about anything. Anyone still MAGA at this point is too far gone for me to care.
Sure they were, I know real estate very well, and that case was nonsense. Also do you know the details of the rape case?
You should care what "MAGA morons" think because they have a lot of guns and they have gotten rightfully angrier by the year. Think about how all of us are mad at what they have been doing with the currency and inflation, and then add in the feeling that they are getting cheated at the ballot box too.
I see no indication that you are capable of knowing anything well. It wasn't a "rape" case, it was a defamation case.
If you have any MAGA buddies, you might want to clue them into the fact that much of the left is well armed too, and we don't get winded on the way to the fridge for another beer.
If they wanna play like domestic terrorists again, they will be handled again.
It was a rape case that trump was not allowed to defend himself. She is a crazy person, there should never have been a case.
Let me get this straight, the last civil war was at that time one of the deadliest wars in history, and you are cool with it happening again?
Trump chose not to defend himself in the fact finding portion of the case. Then he whined that he couldn't turn back the clock in the penalty phase.
You think MAGA is capable of going to war? LOL. I'm talking about January 6.
There were literally zero facts to find, its a he said she said case from 30 years ago. The issue is you guys are too partisan to realize when something is unjust.
Yes, they are 100% capable and armed to the teeth; the left side is not. I am on neither of your stupid teams and just want to be left alone. You are the one that would be at risk not me, so you should probably be a bit more concerned.
One after another you have regurgitated bad faith arguments from Trump verbatim, yet you think I'm being partisan. Hilarious.
Being capable of waging war is about a little bit more than having lots of guns. Is Trump going to lead this thing, because I really don't think he's interested, and I know he's not capable. Can MAGA pick a war leader without turning on each-other in the process? I doubt it. Does MAGA have the logistics infrastructure, intelligence gathering capability, or diplomatic connections with potential allies? People who are as detached from reality as MAGA are not going to make much of a modern fighting force. Anyways, the billionaires pulling them around by their noses aren't interested in major upheaval.
If a real civil war happened it would be an absolute shit show. Everyone would be at risk, even those outside the US. If you think it would be otherwise than your dumber than I thought.
Your team would lose to them in a war. Everyone would be harmed, you dont know what is happeneing.
Um, it was you who claimed that you wouldn't be in danger, and it was me who said it would impact everyone.
I don't have a team. Democrats are mostly shit, just not in the way Republicans and MAGA think.
I know that a bunch of MAGA freaks ran down to the border to stop an invasion that wasn't happening, then immediately started attacking each-other. I might not know everything going on, but some things are pretty damn obvious.
