Now I’m sorry for noting that all the people says that Convicted Felon Trump would never be a convicted felon are now saying he’ll never go to prison. He’s a man of many firsts, I don’t put him above any low point. he wins the election and does not spend any time in jail. few months to go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He incited the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection wherein 5 died and threaten killing the VPOTUS. If not jailed immediately that is the right of the judiciary for a 34-count conviction, Trump will elevate a call for violence to create chaos intended to keep him from incarceration. thats total MSM nonsense, 5 did not die. only 1 person did, ands she was shot by a cop. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So relax already. Of course you would, it’s what was programmed in. Then stop being a loser and not engage in any of the media As stated above, everyone loses. Unfortunately many suffer from trump derangement syndrome and can’t see it. Propagandized, obviously. Nice you are able to admit to having the mind plague The entire left are nutters, literally mind lost. Anyway, this is what happens when individuals are propagandized. To the point where they can no longer think for themselves. Enjoy and have fun with the silly adolescent rhetoric You are the one who can't think for himself, only parrot Trump's words. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanaguma Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 14 minutes ago, herfiehandbag said: He used campaign money to cover it up. And falsified accounts to do so. That is the crime Interesting that those crimes need not be brought before the court, nor does Trump have to be found guilty of them. I think that may be the basis of why people are finding it hard to follow the trail from crime to conviction. The 34 misdemeanour document falsifying counts would, under normal circumstances, be forgotten due to the statute of limitations. But...if they are associated with an underlying crime then they become felonies and can be acted on. The underlying crime doesn't need to be brought in court or judged. Just mentioned. So, Trump can be convicted of falsifying documents to cover up a crime that has not been proven or even seen light of day in court. I think that is what many people find hard to swallow.

Popular Post Eric Loh Posted May 31 Popular Post Share Posted May 31 Judge Juan Merchan will have a most satisfying day at sentencing Trump after weeks of taunting, intimidation, threats and insults at him and his family. He has warned Trump in great lengths and has consider jail sanction when he violated his strict gag order. With the guilty verdicts, Judge will have 34 ways to serve his justice. Trump's bullying finally met his match. Good day for justice. 1 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be democratic for Trump to demand another vote in December if he loses in January? Of course not, yet you wanted another vote on Brexit before the result of the first one had been implemented. So asking for people's acceptance of votes/verdicts seems a bit of a stretch for you. The hypocrisy is not surprising though... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post connda Posted May 31 Popular Post Share Posted May 31 Of course he would be. Lawfare 101 in a progressive liberal city with a DA who campaigned on "getting Trump" and a judge who instructed the jury that they didn't need to come to a consensus regarding Trump's "crimes." So - this will go to the appeals court for sure based on procedural irregularities. "Ha Ha Ha MAGA supporter. Trump's gonna get jail time." I'm not a Trump supporter and don't plan on voting for him. I have huge problems with many of his domestic and foreign policies. But - I Detest Lawfare. It has no place in a functioning First-World Democracy, which basically means to me that the US no longer has a functioning First-World Democracy. It's what you see here in Thailand. "Ha Ha Ha We got Trump Ha Ha Ha - your boy is going to prison." He ain't "by boy - and if he 'goes to jail' the entire US has a serious problem in the future. But progressive ideologues can't grasp that reality as they are simple anchored to their opinions by hatred" You miss the point that this just galvanizes his base as well as other people who see though the Lawfare and really abhor what they see America turning in to. If Trump wins in November, the turnaround is fair play and they'll be Lawfare on Steriods - and then the US descends into the third-world of political Lawfare you see here in Thailand. And whatever form of government the United States is in 2025, it won't be a Democracy. Be careful what you cheer for and wish for. It will turn around a bite you in the derriere. 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost all media coverage is about the GOP, so I don't why on earth you'd falsely claim that 90% (a number that obviously came from someone's backside) is dem backed. There are dedicated redneck "news" sites and some of them got in legal trouble for outright lying. I guess that's all besides the point if it doesn't fit someone's personal agenda. 🤷♂️🤦♂️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We weren't allowed to watch it due to New York "no cameras in the courtroom" rules. We SHOULD rest easy that, because of the intense detail the prosecution brought forth, this IS a crime worthy of the scrutiny and 45 IS now a convicted felon because the jury did their job.

The reason they are scared is because they know he will investigate fully the 2020 election, and that he will tear down everything they have built. Unlike last time, he knows what to do and how to do it - last time they delayed him and then blindsided him - never again. The convinctions will be removed on Appeal - this is going to the High Court. Why the DA proceeded with this case will be one of the many criminal investigations to be started under Trump as President in 2025. There is not a businessman alive that has not over valued his/her assets in their financial books - me included. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srikcir Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 19 minutes ago, Hanaguma said: Can't be bothered to check though. Here's the check: Within 36 hours, five people died: one was shot by Capitol Police, another died of a drug overdose, and three died of natural causes, including a police officer. Many people were injured, including 174 police officers. Four officers who responded to the attack died by suicide within seven months. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_6_United_States_Capitol_attack If Trump never incited the attack on the Capitol, would these people still be alive? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
