Only in Trump world could supporters insist so vehemently that it is fraudulent prosecution, miscarriage of justice, political retribution at the same time they admit they dont know what it says because they haven’t read it!
then they boast about their ignorance as if it a badge of courage for the team not to read it!
That's the dissonance at work... years of voluntary brainwashing and investing their time, emotions and money on a conman.
And yet 50% of registered Republicans still want him to lead the party and 75-90% of Republicans will still vote for him. Hillary wrong about a lot, but y'all are deplorable.
Because people are fed up with the RINOs
The current political system is a two-headed monster with the Republicans & Democrats more or less the same.
Neither party is really for the people & America's independence.
Trump, not a career politician, brings in an independent, true American ideology to solving this country's problems.
Again, there are four charges and what you are refering to only tangentially relates to the enormous breadth of evidence which has been painstakingly and meticulously accumulated and documented, and upon which is being used to demonstrate his culpability on those charges
If I may be so frank, there is a mountain of evidence stacked against him. Read the indictment. Really, read it, even if just skimming. The time for Trump and the co-conspirators to be held accountable for a long litany of infractions has come.
All the talk on the the twitter accounts and message boards and you tube vids won't change that.
The GQP is stuck with DJT. Trump has already drained $100mm from his various SuperPACs to pay his legal bills (and Melania's stylist $110k). He will continue to do so.
If you think it is bad now, in 12 months when DJT is facing 4 separate trials (because he won't plead), he will be out of answers and money.
The GQP has to start figuring out how to throw DJT overboard. Pence is leading that charge.
The big donors have seen the light.. they are sitting this next one out (they won't and back a loser) and will watch him swirl down the toilet.
"I read the indictment carefully. There is no smoking gun. There is no one who is credibly prepared to testify that Donald Trump said to him, 'I know personally, I lost the election.' There is a lot of evidence a lot people told me he lost the election l, but you know Donald Trump and you, know he will make up his own mind. And they’ll have a very hard time proving it. District of Columbia - so 90 percent of the jury pool voted against him. So, they may actually get a conviction from a D.C. jury. But will survive appellate review and review in the Supreme Court? I do not think so." - Alan Dershowitz
It indeed looks like a very weak indictment.
Lol, yeah let's start quoting trump fans on social media... I promise it'll make a difference! 😆

OK, I can buy the notion that the more traditional Republicans (who don't seem to exist anymore as far as I can tell) and the Democrats are "more or less the same." And that neither party is really "for the people."
But, there is no possible way that any human being could fail to recognize that the only thing in the world that Trump cares about is himself. It just isn't possible to miss this. I refuse to believe that anyone could be that stup!d.
Ok. I reread the indictment very slowly this time and have come to a new conclusion.
If you read between the lines you will plainly see that Hunter Biden instigated the whole damn thing through Burisma with the big guy getting his 10% as a false flag. everything! Even the fake elector scheme! Ray Epps was indeed a Fed plant. Four Seasons landscaping was the covert home of the real war room.
The real and full Kraken will be released shortly.
I’m 50 now, and for the rest of my life I will never understand.
Let me help you. About 40-50 % of this country isn't what we thought they were. We are no different than the people we look down on for supporting Putin, or Kim. My life I thought we just disagreed on quaint issues. But the GOP has been outed. These are bad people. Trump once criticized John McCain for getting caught when asked about his service and time as a POW. Remember when a comment like that would end your career?

Less than 50% of the country's people vote. Your 40-50% in reality is 20-25%. Assume 25% are uber-MA_GAs. Your 40-50% turns into 10-13% Trumpers. Never exaggerate the size of your package.
According to a biography of Donald Trump, the current president was a little bully who loved to pull girls hair and once threw rocks at a toddler in his playpen. Trump was a loud-mouthed classroom know-it-all who could never...

Your math should result in 5-6% rabid Trumpers (25% of 20-25%). Their packages are much smaller.

Trump’s run for president 4 times. If that’s not a career politician, then what is?

Putin and Kim love jailing their political opponents in order to "save democracy." You might like them more than you think
Lock her up chants aside, Trump isn’t Biden’s opponent. Trump isn’t the Republican nominee, yet.
3. Obstruction or attempt to obstruct an official proceeding
4. Conspiracy against rights
I wasn't old enough to vote for or against him so I say this as someone who is just watching from the sidelines, but these all sound way too vague to take seriously. Bottom line is he has free speech rights to claim he won the election regardless of what the correct vote count is.
We’ll junior, freedom of speech isn’t freedom from consequences.
While the fact that former President Donald Trump was charged with four federal counts tied to the investigation into the events of Jan. 6, 2021, drew most of the attention on Tuesday, he wasn’t the only Republican politician whose legal troubles tied to the 2020 election escalated. Hours before the Department of Justice notified Trump of his indictment, two Michigan Republicans were arraigned following an investigation into alleged tampering with voting machines. Matt DePerno, who ran for state attorney general in 2022, and former state Rep. Daire Rendon are close Trump allies, and each faces multiple charges. The allegations DePerno at a rally in Lansing, Mich., in October 2021. (Scott Hasse/Zuma Press Wire) Last year, an inquiry began into individuals who allegedly tampered with voting machines from two counties in Michigan in the aftermath of the 2020 election, in an effort to prove that Joe Biden had not actually won the state by 154,000 votes. DePerno earned an early endorsement from Trump by being one of the most outspoken supporters of the baseless conspiracy theory that the race had been stolen. Multiple clerks told Reuters last year that Rendon approached them about accessing voter machines. She wore a button supporting the QAnon conspiracy theory to a 2021 rally in favor of a “forensic audit” of the prior election. Special prosecutor D.J. Hilson has been investigating for nearly a year whether DePerno, Rendon and others should be charged. In a statement Tuesday, Hilson said, “Although our office made no recommendations to the grand jury as to whether an indictment should be issued or not, we support the grand jury’s decision and we will prosecute each of the cases as they have directed in the sole interests of justice.” According to records first reviewed by the Detroit News, DePerno faces four counts, including undue possession of a voting machine and willfully damaging a voting machine, while Rendon has been charged with conspiracy to commit undue possession of a voting machine and false pretenses. DePerno, who has denied any wrongdoing with regard to the voting machines, lost the 2022 attorney general race to incumbent Democrat Dana Nessel by 9%. He ran to be chairman of the Michigan Republicans earlier this year but lost in a close race to Kristina Karamo, who is also an election denier.
This stuff doesn't boost his support in the General Election. Hardline MAGAs were already going to have 99% turnout anyways; they didn't need additional incentive. The Democrats only need mediocre turnout to win against Trump. There haven't been Independents converting into Trumpers in recent years.
Trump would probably lose North Carolina and possibly Texas the next election, while picking up no swing states he lost last time.
Someone like Vivek, on the other hand, would destroy Biden, winning maybe 400+ EVs.
So can anyone tell me why I should like Trump? Like what did he do that was so incredibly amazing?
He signed a tax cut. A cut that was disproportionately beneficial to the ultra wealthy who need that extra cash the absolute least, and a cut that was accompained by no reduction in governent expenditure, meaning that debt was pointlessly accumulated by the federal government effectively as a mortgage of future American incomes towards that tax cut, because debt isn't magic and someone eventually has to foot the bill, evident in the fact that the bill he signed was designed to start raising taxes in 2021, mostly on the middle class by the way. Oh and that's still the law of the land... you can only blame Biden and the Dems for not changing what Trump and the Republicans did... Before the pandemic Trump was already well on the way to adding the most to the national debt or any president in a single term.
Infrastructure overhaul? Nope.
Immigration? GOP rhetoric about it is virtually the same as it was prior to his presidency, because he didn't solve anything...
Health care reform? They literally don't have any ideas, well beyond the tremendously stupid idea of repealing the affordable care act with nothing lined up to replace it...
And there's 2020. Recall when COVID was still a mysterious infection in China, Trump could not praise Xi Jingping enough (and he hasn't stopped). Then he went out of his way to cause confusion contradicting experts and his own officials, offended that the statistics made him look bad, not giving two s**** about the tradegy they represented, just the implications for his reputation
Leadership. Where was it? As unrest unlocked the nation and a pandemic took it's toll, when the anniversary of our nation's birth came, he took the opportunity not to call for unity and strength, but divide and fear mongering about a "left-wing cultural revolution is designed to overthrow the American Revolution". To celebrate our nation's birth, he called Americans "bad, evil people"...
I have a son who was a high school senior at that time. He was taking a AP gov class, where his teacher gave the class a homework assignment to research both major party candidates campaigns.
I'm still befuddled, for my son came to me since he couldn't find the Trump campaigns policy proposals for his second term. There weren't any. Trump was just great. That was the entire platform...
What a legacy he built, truly inspirational. That's all without the not so unimportant distinction of being the first and only president to have sought to prevent the peaceful transition of power...
You can rage however much you want about culture war nonsense. Trump was the antithesis of a leader, and history will remember him for who he was
