good lord get a grip
virtually none of that is real or in any way the fault of the Democratic Party.
grow up and read a book
LOL, you are such a RUBE!!!! All of your "talking points" were falsehoods and only an uneducated fool like you would even expect your own side to back you. You lied again.
The guy who posted about the Democrat wonder, your girl Hillary, and the party itself, kicked you to the curb old man.
You see, you love to post about white males and their bias and privilege, which is a lie by your racist side, but if someone brings up Mexico, you don't like that...too bad old man. You don't have special privilege here because of your race, which YOU brought up and I'm not the only one to point out.
Yes, grow up and read a book. You are one of the absolute biggest peabrains on this entire site. There is NOTHING anyone could post contrary to your posts that you'd agree with it. That alone speaks volumes about you as a person.
You've got the Flagpole Complex. Show me one post where you were in agreement, just one that you realized that you couldn't twist it around with an opposing point of view. Your mentor Flagpole was called out and the post was reposted, the he went into hiding like a turd. I bet you read part of The New Jim Crow, eh? You are ignorant.
Someone asked me the other day if I heard about this. I said I had but had no interest in any of the details.
So the feds raid one of the many residencies of Donald Trump, they find a bunch of "stuff" and so what - is there any sane American that truly believes anything comes of this? They could find the f--king gun that killed JFK with a 17 year old Donald Trumps fingerprints all over it and absolutely nothing will happen, so all this is is a horrific waste of taxpayer money that could be directed at schools, healthcare, poverty in this country.
Seriously what a waste of time, money and even the 2min I spent writing this.
it is astonishing how trump has led a life of crime for 60 years and mostly gotten away with it. He is a truly gifted criminal. One of the most talented this country has ever seen.
but it does look like he's in the Star Wars garbage compressor, with the walls pushing in on him from many directions. Will be hard for him to scoot this time. Can't bribe a NY prosecutor any more.
Georgia is the real problem for him. His lawyer will be indicted and probably trump himself.
But I'm sure no jury will ever convict him - he's a white messiah to many.
No, he is an idiot criminal that constantly does stupid stuff but is never held accountable. There was no possible benefit to him from asking the Ukraine president to investigate Biden, asking the Georgia SOS to find votes, to fight the 2020 election results and to lie about still having classified documents. Given he’s supposed to be a billionaire, it was stupid for him to horse around with property values.
I don’t understand why so many people on the right don’t want to move on to someone like DeSantis or Haley instead of supporting a guy that constantly makes such poor, self destructive decisions.
I don't think this is true. I believe it is possible to empanel a fair, innominate jury in at least one of the many criminal trials Trump will face in the next two years.
Two words: OJ.
Racial tribalism will overcome any sort of feelings about justice white jurors hold.
As long as jury unanimity is required, and if there is a predominately white jury, Trump will not be convicted of a crime by jury. There will be holdouts based simply on race.
Civil is a bit different.
Is that why you think the Fulton County Georgia case is the best bet? That jury will be mostly black.
Maybe I'm just an eternal optimist, but I think even an all-white jury could convict him. They just have to make sure to dismiss the carmines and Garys. In any case, jury selection will be critical.

That's my opinion as well...GA being the problem. Rudy has been notified he's a target which can't be good for either Rudy or Trump.

we'd all love to see rudy flip on trumpo. Oh man what a show that would be.
after rudy worked over mob defendants for years in NY as a prosecutor....to see him be worked over by prosecutors the same way he worked over perps, getting them to flip on their bosses....just too good.
Apparently being a 'target' is pretty much a guarantee rudy will be indicted.

The 1/6 investigation is moving along as well and in my opinion, that’s the strongest case against him. Trump is fighting on 4 fronts which I guess will guarantee him a win in 2024.

You are descending into, or revealing yourself to be, a joke Woke. White people get convicted by white jurors all the time: Manafort, Stone, Chauvin, Bannon, McMichael, to name a few high profile recent ones.
The vast majority of juries follow the law and apply it to the facts, despite what the media tells you.

trump is not manafort, stone, chauvin, bannon, etc.
trump is the most talented politician and salesman of our times. he is the best we'll ever see. He has a command over his followers that can only be called masterful. No other politician has his charisma. He knows it - he's correct that he could shoot someone and not lose many votes. That's essentially true and we all know it.
There will be some white dude on that jury who is under the thrall of trump and he will feel his patriotic duty is to absolve trump and let him go back to making america great again. It only takes one.

So it's Trump's political talent and charisma that will sway a jury, and not "racial tribalism" as you asserted a few posts ago? Those are different things, and you seem to be changing your original woke tune (presumably in view of the contrary examples provided to you).
But then you re-hedged that with the "some white dude" comment, so it's hard to determine whether you think white jurors in America are guided by racial tribalism when deliberating the fate of white defendants or not. Maybe you don't even know what you think on that issue, and it all depends on post you are responding to, eh?

But what if he faces 10 different criminal trials? Then the odds of getting a fair jury go up.
I'm not saying the number will be 10. But it could be 5.

Hitler was also a great politician. He was able to make Germans feel superior and beyond fault. He painted a picture of a better world, run by Germans. Was Hitler's political success due to Hitler's talent? or 'racial tribalism' of Germany? Obviously both. Same for Trump.
People are clannish and politicians use that all the time. Trump is just really, really, really good at forging that bond.
I'm not talking about whether white jurors in america do their jobs well in general. I'm only talking about trump and his racial hold on mostly non-college white people, especially white men, in America. It is a very tight hold that justice will probably not be able to break. And how that will affect his trial.
Probably not much else will come of this, because the discretion of the DOJ will lean them towards not charging a former president; this former president in particular.
Garland looks like he's resolute and ready to indict Trump. I think it will be after midterms, but it will happen.
Not indicting Trump will do more harm than letting him off just because he was the president. This ain't Nixon. Trump is still a clear and present danger.

I don't know that Georgia would work because there were plenty of instances of voter fraud in the state:
Feb. 15—ATLANTA — The State Election Board has referred 35 cases of election-law violations to the attorney general or local district attorneys for criminal prosecution. "Election fraud is not tolerated in Georgia. When there...

I wouldn't go that far. Clearly the guy has been a failure most of his adult life but has been able to capitalize as of late. Is Trump any better than Oprah? Ellen? Musk? Not really. I understand he has great appeal to a certain low-class type of person and he was able to parlay his fame into politics. But that might be his undoing. There is a reason most famous people don't go into politics.
Trump is also hated by as many people as love him (probably more)

Disappointing analysis. With so much to criticize about Trump, his behavior and his policies, it's really too bad so many otherwise logical, principled and fair-minded people strive so hard believe the media-manufactured "because they're all racists!" theme as the ultimate driving flaw behind Trumpism. Kills credibility, in my opinion, and galvanizes Trumpers who wouldn't otherwise be, or would no longer be, Trumpers. Other than that, it accomplishes nothing except making people feel good about their believed moral superiority.
That way of thinking is not really much different than Trumpism itself, in a lot of respects. Buying into a broad, loosely supported, but endless well of paranoia, victimhood, insulting accusations and unfounded character attacks.
If OZ is like the US, as you claim, where is our Trump, our January 6 insurrection, our Proud Boys, our gerrymandering right wing Trump/Republican cult, our hatred for anything that we aren't? "Whataboutism" is always the weakest of arguments. The US continues to lead the world - in the worst possible way.
