meh the NY prosecution only existed because they looked at trump and said 'we need to find something on this guy.'
which is exactly what he is doing and the Dems are rightly complaining.
I'm all for prosecuting trumpers post 2028 if they obviously broke the law, but it has to be real and not just because they are trumpers.
that NY prosecution was shameful.
It is common for a prosecutor to take down a guy on a crime spree by picking and choosing the crime that he can most easily win conviction on. And it needs to be straight forward and simple for a jury to understand. And the evidence needs to be understandable too. And it might seem very tame compared to other crimes he is widely known to be involved in. This happens every single day in courts across this fine country. There is nobody that can look at Trump's conduct and believe he does not operate a crime spree. And that his business fraud with the porn star is tame compared to overturning an election.
What Trump is doing to Democrats and Republicans that crossed him is completely different. He is targeting people with no crime spree by looking for technicalities that he came make crimes out of. And our system is clearly recognizing the difference. He is losing these cases. Hope it still holds
I hear you, but the difference is that the head of some street gang will, at no time in the future, be able to order the DOJ to prosecute whoever he wants out of revenge. So the margin of error is wider when prosecuting a president.
we're not living in a theoretical world. If we throw trumpers in jail, we can bet all our money that when the Rs get the DOJ again the same thing will happen in reverse. Dems will be arrested and prosecuted.
The world is a messy place. We have a deeply flawed constitution that simply cannot handle having an outlaw president. We need to get past this period however we can. Throwing them all in jail will not get us past this period. It will feel great for a year or two and then when they start arresting Democratic senators for mortgage or tax fraud we will regret it.

haven't you been banned yet? You are one of the only people who bothers to register because of all the banning.
Banning has been out of hand for years. In one case, I moved to a new place, had a different provider, and found out the IP address was banned BEFORE making a post on LRC! I was never able to get LRC to release that IP address.
Some might recall that some 15 years ago someone posted that could not post to LRC from anywhere at their university. Every address was blocked.
….and let’s not forget about maybe giving them their money back, TOO !!!
I’m a little skeptical of this peace deal unless Trump can make the Ayatollah pinky swear that he won’t aspire to have nukes.
if Trump can get that, I’m sold.

And this "deal" has a 60-day clock. Will Trump change that his trademarked 12-day clock before he signs? The TrumpCalendar has has 12 days lasting longer than 60 days. That gives Trump more time to "perfect" the "deal".

Iran knows that all they have to do is say they they won't discuss the matter any further.
Trump will claim it as a victory.
Exactly. The negotiations are going like this.
Kushner: You guys just put whatever you want on paper. We will sign it as long as you don’t debunk the President’s social media posts where he spikes the football.
Tax cuts, deregulation, 50000 Dow, justices, secure border and deportations, no men in women's sports, and fighting woke
Only for the rich, False, False, False, True but also deporting LEGAL immigrants as well as those who work hard and help our country. His deportation shams are all about hate, not actually helping the nation. True, but men with genetic errors that result in female hormones can be in women's sports. True, but woke is good. Being gay is not a choice. Being hispanic or black is not a choice. Being born poor is not a choice. Trump really has no clue

Why should I be banned? The only reason i did get banned was because of the rightist moderator who banned me for starting a thread saying that trump should be impeached, yet the dumpicans get away for making posts calling people woke. There is so much bias here.

Trump should be banned from Twitter.
If Congress isn't going to impeach trump, then they should try impeaching his Twitter account.
The White House intervened to get a $620 million deal for a company tied to Don Jr.
The request was made by Peter Navarro.
Of the dozens of companies the Pentagon was considering funding at the time, the Don Jr.-linked company was the only deal initiated by a top aide to Trump.
So 60 days to negotiate back to the agreement under Obama?
Hahaha, what a clown, we had a much better deal brokered by Obama.
This clown Trump, the pedo, the master of the art of the deal, just got played by Iran. Remember when he said I will only accept unconditional surrender? Didn't realize he meant that for himself. What a joke. 86-47.
