Big Problems if Trump is Indicted

[BugI02]

I dunno…. I don’t see it as dire as you. The biggest divide politically is nobody-but-Trump vs let’s-vet-others-beside-Trump [anybody-but-Trump] folks.

Too binary?

Campaign finance violations are a felony. Doesn't matter what candidate. It's a felony. NY State candidates... felony. President of the United States... felony. It's the law. And if you break it, you're a felon. No matter where you come from, he broke campaign finance laws. Felony.

I'm a republican, but he committed a felony. There is no legal recourse for that. It is a FELONY.

And legally - if convicted - he can't even own a firearms. Poor guy. Know why? Felony.

Innocent until proven guilty, unless you agree with Pelosi.

Nope. I meant it exactly as I wrote it.

Well I won't argue with what you posted. Pretty sure we were posting about different things. I was coming from the Trump indictment context hence my query regarding picking up arms or committing violence in defense of Trump over this indictment.

It's more the circumstance and precedent of going after trump this way than it is about the person.

It's a blatant move to strong-arm an election, being waved in front of everyone's face, and also done in such a manner as to bait a response from a significant chunk of the nation.

Effectively telling the American people bluntly that they no longer have a say with their vote. The consequences for not acting on that seriously are about as risky as acting on it. The fact they think doing such openly will cause violence, yet they proceed with it anyway, should tell people all they need to know.

This could be handled quietly, and should be, if it really warrants any sort of criminal penalty. Especially when the civil cost of doing such could cause more trouble than necessary.

I believe that this case they are trying to pin Trump on is about falsifying business records and that is a State misdemeanor. To upgrade it to a felony they have to try and tie it into a federal violation.

The Feds declined to pursue it.

Fox News is a personally professed entertainment channel. Tucker's own producer called his viewers "Terrorist and Cousin F*ckers." You can't really call this guy more than crap reality TV.

I respect proper journalism, but not "entertainment news." It's like getting your info from TMZ.

Tucker Carlson’s Ex-Producer Called Election Deniers ‘Terrorists... Cousin F**king Types’

In a lawsuit against Fox News by Dominion Voting Systems, internal texts show network talent expressed frustration with Trump's lies but still gave them airtime.

Did you miss the part where I said that the source I cited was not from Fox News? It was CNN. Your response was why I specifically sourced from somewhere other than Fox News becuse I knew it would be commimg.

I don’t see this as an attempt at character assassination…that has no effect on Trump and would be worse than a total waste of effort, it plays right into Trumps strengths.

It's people that blindly follow a felon vs people on the other side that blindly follow a felon.

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. Look at what you, so high mighty, are saying about everyone else, by implying they are idiots and that they are “blindly following“ those you decree felons.

I’ve had my fair share of taking point in the real world. You’re free to take any position you’d like in your internet fantasy stack.

Yep, overwatch is much more rewarding than running point.

Yeah Mr. We need to stop all of this nastiness and infighting.

 

[Creedmoor]

Puppy carcass!?!??
Man, everyone else ALWAYS gets the good stuff.

I know, it has its winter coat still.
I would hope its large enough to make a pair of mittens.

 

[Doug]

Hey, here's a thought....
Why don't we just wait until we see what the charges are.
Current rumors are that there are 30 charges.

We should focus on issues in Indiana. We all know the Federal government doesn't represent the whole of the country. Within this state, there are issue that we all agree and disagree on. So let's not focus on what's going on in NY state legislature, or CA state legislature.

Got it. They are going to take gas stoves away (just one of hundreds of example) but just keep looking at the forest

 

[Creedmoor]

This is better than picking up a pair of Dundaulk girls at HammerJacks on a Sat night in Ball`mor...

 

[Ingomike]

Interesting how you call yourself patriots while crapping on the rest of the US states.

Now you are questioning other patriotism? WOW!

Please show your homework. Got proof of this?

We weren't libertarians back then

Well. “we” weren’t libertarians. The prolific libertarian posters have mostly left. You remember MrJerrell? Banned for his caustic comments. He ain’t the only one. But. You’re right that we fight ober stupid **** while the world burns.

Yeah I would like to know when Trump was convicted of violating a felony federal election law.
