Exactly, many, if not all, presidents have done what Trump seemingly did, try to find extra votes.

Please give us some sourced examples.

So

down 25 pounds from when he was booked following his New York arrest in April

 

If convicted and lands up in jail, with all that time on his hands perhaps he should do another book project, "The Art of Weightloss"

So he's lost weight. What do you expect after all this harassment?

Obviously he needs more harassment. He's still morbidly obese.

Trump has a single message, racism and nationalism and plays to the lowest common denominator.

10 out of the first 12 US presidents enslaved blacks. 

Black people weren't allowed to vote in all states, in my lifetime! 

Hardly anything new.

Nonsense, Trump is ahead in the general election polls because of his love for the US and wanting to make her great again! 

The US people are deciding that these indictments are politically motivated and it's quite obvious who are trying to win in undemocratic fashion.

 

The US people are deciding that these indictments are politically motivated 

 

The US people also dished out the 91 criminal indictments. They saw the evidence and it was enough to convince them he has to answer to this in court.

 

Trump is ahead in the Republican nomination votes, not general election votes. Among all voters his favorability is below Biden.

Oh, that's OK then. He should be allowed to rekindle the good old days for those who have a nostalgic fondness for them?

Evidence was presented to a randomly selected Grand Jury , which in Georgia being a red state were predominantly republicans. The heard the evidence presented ,and recommended and indictment.

All else are nonsensical rationalizations  by those who were taken in by this sociopathic snake oil salesmen  in a pathetic attempt to hide their stupidity,

What the dont understand is that everything they say in support if trump further exabits their fundamental inability to deal with facts. 

Georgia is red? Anyone tell Trump?

Classic "Whataboutism." How about we give that a rest and stay with the current topic?

The state legislature and governorship are controlled by Republicans. That makes it red.

As President, I sure hope not. I voted against him twice. Can't register truthfully again.

 

As far as prison goes, would be no tears shedded from me.

Well that depends with the grand jury was drawn from. If it was drawn from Atlanta, which is a democratic stronghold, most likely that wouldn't be the case

Exactly. Fulton County is deep blue.

Reminds me of Thaksin when the Junta went after him politically.

 

The only difference being, Trump is staying to defend himself instead of Thaksin who fled the country.

 

Lots of parallels between Thailand under the Junta and the US under Biden. Sad times.

You may assume I am not, “laughing with you” …

Nikki Haley gave them a big dose of reality when she proclaimed loud and clear 45 cannot win the general election. There was immediate booing that followed.

 

Fine! Go ahead, lose AGAIN! Every politician over the last couple of years who tried running while hitched to the 45 wagon lost. Buncha slow learners.

That's why MAGA targeted that county for election interference. And now they cry about being tried in a deep blue state. You can't make this stuff up.

No, it's not OK. I was pointing out that most Presidents were racist, yet they are focusing on Trump, who btw is married to an immigrant.

Again, is that a reason not to focus on a racist president for being racist?

Good post, however another difference is that Taksin was guilty. Trump has not, and probably will not be convicted.

Ha, good point. However, 2 wrongs don't make a right. 

I believe there was more evidence against her, yet she wasn't indicted, I wonder why?

 

Trump had boxes and boxes of top secret classified documents.

 

Hillary was sent and responded to long email chains that had some emails with classified markings on them. These emails were largely schedules, and draft press releases.

 

See the difference?

Nationalistic, I agree, nothing wrong with that.

Actually, some of Trump's favorite people pushed a kind of military coup when they advocated declaring martial law and having the military confiscate voting machines. Even after they made that proposal, they are still some of his favorite people.

And here's what Trump wrote on Truth Social:

"A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution. Our great ‘Founders’ did not want, and would not condone, False & Fraudulent Elections!”"

He followed up by posting “UNPRECEDENTED FRAUD REQUIRES UNPRECEDENTED CURE!”

There you go! Citing direct quote evidence.

Trump didnt try overthrowing an election, he was sure he won. Just like Stacy Abrams. Worth noting your democrats spent 2016-2020 denying Trumps legitimacy and even impeaching him twice on what turned out to be falsehoods. When the left try overthrowing elections its all fine and dandy. 

“He was sure he won”

 

Well, that makes everything he did perfectly okay then, doesn’t it?
 

What a load of BS! Let’s suppose I’m sure that my neighbor stole my car, but I have absolutely no evidence of that. Now I go over to my neighbor’s house and shoot him in the face because I’m absolutely 100% sure he stole my car, although I still don’t have a shred of evidence. How long do you suppose a jury will have to deliberate before they pass a ‘guilty’ verdict?

Some here seem intent on him being jailed due to their personal political view rather than whether he is guilty or not. ???? 

If you can see this now, why didn't Trump see this long ago, and return the Classified documents immediately. You know, keep his nose clean once out of power.

 

Why tempt the FBI by holding onto classified documents?

And this is exactly the problem. If you can't see that he is racist, then you have a severe problem.  I KNOW I shouldn't provide you with proof, and that it's a waste of time cuz you won't accept facts. I just can't help myself:

Is it an Atlanta jury? Don’t think so … a Fulton County Trial Jury. So I pulled up the map, a very large area and … no one should miss that both prosecutor and defense agree on the Trial Jury pool.
