Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

If only laws applied to the wealthy or connected 😓
"This type of behavior is never tolerated in Barraqua. You talk about judge like that? Right to jail. Right away."
I've seen lots of speculation that Trumbo is trying to get himself thrown in jail for the publicity of it all. It would result in a huge fundraising boost and conservative outrage, even if just for a short while, and no one wants to give him the satisfaction.
Conservatives generate outrage at anything and they donate to him regardless.
This is a lame excuse for why they won’t lock his arse up.
His fundraising is going historically terrible right now.
I'd be curious if anyone is doing an accounting of the total take though. I get that his campaign isn't raising as much money, but how many sneakers did they sell? I'm assuming they sold a few bibles and I'd assume he has his fingers in the 2 billion Kushner took for "investments."
You don't think he's spending any of that on his campaign or legal fees, do you? That's his money.
Call his fucking bluff.
In jail, no phone, no internet, no interviews. The only way he'd get to talk to the public is though his lawyer, who is accountable to tell the truth when discussing details of the case.
Fuck that. His whining gets him money already, might as well actually stick his ass behind bars.
Unsure that would happen... Lots of undecided out there who care about the rule of law and have said in polls if he was convicted they would not vote for him. I think it's delusion and wishful thinking on his part
Doubt.
Why would you believe a group of people that are insane enough to still be "undecided" on Trump. Don't be a sucker.
I keep saying it, those 'undecided' and 'middle of the road' people are actually just embarrassed conservatives. They don't wanna be seen as Trumpers while still voting for him.
You think everyone cares and pays attention to politics? I can introduce you to hundreds of people that I know of who don't even know who is running
Then how do they suddenly have an opinion that's based on the results of his trial? How do they even know its happening? How will they find out the verdict?
Because the trial and the result is all over the news and will be historic if he is found guilty. That is different than politics, that is headline news.
So they somehow missed 4 years of Trump dominating the news, yet they're dialed into the trial?
Not buying it.
I don't buy that everyone has made up their minds, and will never change them
Okay? That's not what I said...
Ok
Anyways, I have a bridge to sell you.
