When the alternative is Joe Biden even a literal mob boss would be a better choice.
Trump and his supporters have been lying to you (successfully) for years and years about things that are 100% provably untrue. Despite this, you still believe them about stuff that is remotely POSSIBLE, but due to the nature of things, NOT 100% provably untrue. Like so many halfway decent conspiracy theories. Like, for example, Biden being being a pedophile and/or being incestuous.
And instead of saying, "These people lied to me about tons of other stuff, I won't believe them," you instead say, "I LIKE the idea of that probable lie being true, so I will pretend that it's true" (in addition to having NO self-respect by allowing folks to lie to you with abandon).
Put MUCH more succinctly, you're adult, the most justifiably mocked person on LRC.
Being mocked by morons doesn't bother me.
Biden's daughter's diary is authentic and it says what it says whether that has penetrated your bubble or not.
It took over 2 years for your bubble to admit the Hunter Biden laptop was real and even know none of you know what's on it. Hint: it's not about crack and Hunter's little wang.
You live in a world of pure pro-Democrat propaganda.
Not sure if this is possible to keep this discussion non political but why are the charges against Trump still unknown?
I’m assuming it’s done like this in all grand jury indictments, but is that the case and if it is why do it this way? If not why do it differently in this case?
If it’s usually done this way could they make an exception and announce the charges?
Seems like it would be in the public interest to know the actual charges. Instead everyone is speculating it’s about Stormy Daniel’s but how do we even know that?
Because someone in the DA's office committed a felony by leaking the grand jury decision to the press before charges actually got filed.

Yeah, let's put that someone in the DA's office on trial while we leave Donald Jail Trump with 255 potential felonies of the hook.
The self funded billionaire, art of the deal master, historically successful, stable genius has put out a fresh video asking for right wingers money again..
Trump" “If you’re doing well because all the things I’ve done have brought you wealth and prosperity .. it would be really great if you can contribute .. Show the Left that nothing can destroy the greatest political movement”
Get that pocket book open Trumpers! Remember, he told you that this indictment for shagging a porn star is an indictment of you. Never forget that.
We're not leaving Donald J. Trump scot free. We are doing what every American citizen is supposed to do. To not launch political witch hunts against ANYONE. NO EXCEPTIONS.
How would you like it if we're going to elect Trump back into office in 2024, and then he'll launch prosecutions against Creepy Joe Biden, Hillary Liar Clinton with the Benghazi, and every single socialist communist lunatics for DAs installed by George Soros.
We'll make sure to register Joe Biden as a sex offender for taking showers with his underage daughter. God you communists are so EVIL. You favor child molesters and thugs over honorable Americans like Donald J. Trump who must play by a different standard.
I hope hell awaits for every single hypocrite Demoncrats in this thread.

After inciting an insurrection and attempting to install himself as dictator, not to mention going on trial on numerous related and unrelated felony indictments, Trump is sure to win back millions and millions of suburban voters. 🙄
This position you all take is idiotic. If he wanted to be a dictator he would have done it before the election.
Biden's term has been an abject disaster for America.
Normal people notice everything has gotten worse under Biden.
Normal people like you who spends more time on Letsrun than anything else.
To be fair if I was a Republican chronically on letsrun and the meta of the site shifted from owning the libs to Trump constantly getting dunked on and the same 5 people crying about how america is ruined id also be very unhappy with it.
Me personally, I don’t think my life has changed at all in the last 12 years, but again a 1% change in taxes, seeing a marga/pride flag or a regular variation of a dollar in gas over the span of a couple months doesn’t ruin my day like it seems to do others.

Are you agip? You sure remind me of her/him? Maybe as username agip you post slightly less than adult ... but we know don't we agip.
1) To all you rubes who think you know what the charges are, you don't. No one other than Bragg and the grand jury members and probably a handful of others know right now. We will find out when he is arraigned on Tuesday (assuming there's not another delay). I may have some alcohol on that day...champagne perhaps.
2) It SEEMS like it will be more than just the FELONY finance law violation. I know you Trumpers want to minimize that charge, but it IS a felony, and it IS a crime that sent Michael Cohen to prison. It is reported that the charges range in number from 24 to 34. I'm no lawyer, but that to me seems far too many to JUST be about Stormy Daniels. I'm not declaring anything, because I'm in no position to do so, but we shall see.
3) You Trumpers also want to minimize what Michael Cohen has said, but it's pretty clear he has come clean. He lied yes, but when he lied, he did so to protect Donald Trump...Trump's lawyers don't like to mention that part. At some point Cohen decided he wasn't going to be the fall guy anymore for Trump, and he has testified under oath (so under threat of perjury), and since he decided to come clean, everything he has said has checked out as true.
4) At one point I said these charges (when it appeared it was ONLY going to be about Storm Daniels) would result in a slap on the wrist to Trump, but I'm not 100% certain about that anymore.
5) You really have to consider who we're dealing with here. Twice impeached, criminal defendant Donald J. Trump had his University dissolved due to fraud. He had his "charitable" foundation dissolved due to fraud. The CFO of The Trump Organization is at Rikers as we speak after pleading guilty to 15 felonies. The Trump Organization was found GUILTY of 17 charges including tax fraud and other kinds of fraud. This should not be a surprise to anyone that Trump has been indicted. It's not outrageous. It's not shocking. The only thing that is shocking is that it hadn't happened before. He made the VERY BIG mistake of running for President and then winning. That just put a HUGE spotlight on him and his criminal company...and then, of course, he kept on with the criminal behavior after that, for which he will be held accountable at a later date.
It DID lead to his clueless lawyers and people like Lindsey "Karen" Graham crying and complaining about a criminal being indicted.
I can't wait until they see the actual crimes and can't blame the DA anymore- of course I don't expect anyone who supports him to know that the DA doesn't indict, the Grand Jury of 23 citizens does.
This is standard grand jury procedure. The charges are kept sealed and will be presented to the defendant this week in person. This is seems to be a straightfoward case. If I were to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on hush money, hookers or gambling and then try to pass these off as tax deductible legal expenses by having my accountant and attorney create a sheel company to pass the transactions through... I too would be charged with tax evasion which is a felony. I'm not sure why people are alleging a political hit, or trumped up charges. From the evidence we have seen, checks were cut from Cohen to Story Daniels, then remimbursed from Trump to Cohen. I am not sure how Trump's defense will try to spin this as anything but hush money payments that are masked as tax deductible legal expenses. They will present this evidence and unless Trump can explain that this was not hush money, and he did not deduct it from this tax burden, he will get charged with a felony as anyone should. I dont tihnk that this will be particularly interesting unless they have convinced someone like Trump's long time accountant Weisselburg (who is in jail) to testify against Trump. I kn ow that Trump was a president, but I really don't understand why there is so much emotion over this. You commit a crime, you do the time.
