      Guaranteed the Justice Department got everything in order before raiding a former president’s residence. This is just adding to his many public humiliations.

      Don’t try to sue the Justice Department. They literally don’t bring cases that they can lose. Plus they’re all top lawyers who can triple their salary elsewhere. Even the FBI is afraid of them.

      I know one of these guys. They’re very nice but will rip your throat out (rhetorically). They could convict you of a felony and you would end up agreeing with them.

        Trump is not intending to win this. It’s purely performative, to give his voters a reason to believe that all of Trump’s troubles are politically motivated, and to keep his conversation with them on his terms.

        The election is only 3 months away. Either he wins the election, and he can appoint a AG who can make this all go away, or he loses, and is likely going to jail regardless of the outcome of this. So this “lawsuit” only has to live until the election is settled, through all the recounts, whining, and Capitol storming. It doesn’t need to reach a conclusion at all.

        What difference does an airtight case make when you have a litany of judges, all the way up to the supreme court, that will happily twist the law to rule in your favor?

          He doesn’t have any of that. These judges are more loyal to the Heritage Foundation, not Trump. He just signed their appointment papers.

      Hopefully we get the “bad guy falls in poop…classic element of physical comedy” part in November

      For anyone wondering this was from a 4th wall breaking moment in the Brendan Frasier movie George of the Jungle

      One day Jerboa will do gifs. Until then, I will see only that one guy’s face staring at me.
