        lol the government is literally going after their political opponents, and the application of equality under the law is laughable, I feel sorry for anyone that can’t see this. The Republicans and Democrats are the same party, they both don’t care about you, divide and conquer is the goal

          going after political opponents

          are the same party.

          It must be a cobweb of bullshit in your head. You’re right about the application of law being unequal, but not in the way you meant it chief.

              Ya know why? Because Democrats do not walk in lock step to fend off any accountability of the criminality of someone witha D next to their name.

              This is why no democrats and their lawyers aren’t getting arrested; they aren’t commiting crimes and using lawyers to obstruct the process, intimidate witnesses, lie at every turn under oath, etc.

              https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/4252919-fetterman-senate-expel-menendez-indictment/

              Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) on Thursday called on the full Senate to vote on a resolution to expel Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) from the chamber in the wake of new charges asserting the New Jersey senator has acted as a foreign agent on behalf of Egypt.

              time and time and time again, Democrats throw fellow dems to the wolves when they act criminal. Time and time and time and time and time and time and time and time and time again do the Republicans stand by their fellow Rs to reject any and all accountability.

              Did Biden force Trump to lie to the gov and the banks about the monetary value of his properties and also lie that other institutions had validated said numbers? Did Biden force trump to take, share with others, and refuse to give back top secret documents? Did Biden force Trump to try and overturn the fuckin election?? Did Biden force Trump to rape E Jean Carroll? Did Biden force Trump to stand by the opinion that the president of the fucking united states has no duty to support the US constitution?

              NO? WELL THEN IT’S NOT A GODDAMN ATTACK ON A POLITICAL OPPPONENT BUT THE RESULT OF A NON-BIASED DOJ UPHOLDING THE GODDAMN LAWS THAT THE REST OF US CHUMPS MUST FOLLOW

                    It’s a strawman designed to get you to defend an entirely different topic so that he no longer has to defend his indefensible position.

                    It’s an argument manipulation tactic that you should call out directly and aggressively when you see it in the future.

          lol Trump is a career criminal and grifter, and you are the mark, and now he is finally facing legal consequences for years of crime.

          I feel sorry that you can’t see this and Trump has somehow convinced you it’s political persecution. It’s hard to hear or accept, but you are being grifted and tricked to support and follow a mob boss scam artist.

          That criminal tried to say my vote didn’t count and tried to have it overruled. I don’t care who’s political opponent he is. He needs to be sent to a federal pound me in the ass prison.

          Context matters.

          They’re not going after him BECAUSE he is an opponent.

          They’re going after him because he committed crimes.

          Being a political opponent does not grant you diplomatic immunity.

          Don’t feel sorry for others, feel sorry for yourself.

      Probably.

      The judges in Trump’s various cases have to walk a fine line between justice being served and accusations of being politically aggressive against a high profile defendant.

      Accusations which could derail the case and do even more damage to trust in the judiciary and the overall rule of law.

        accusations of being politically aggressive against a high profile defendant

        Republicans already launch those accusations regardless of whether or not they have merit. Worrying about what Republicans are going to say is a losing game.

          Republicans should be written off, but Enlightened Centrists matter (unfortunately). You want to keep the merit of the claims low enough that centrists can’t latch onto it for “both sides” purposes.

            The centrists argue in bad faith all the time and say stupid shit without merit too, they’re just smarter about it.

            It’s time for us to ignore and dismiss them the way we do right-wingers.

              OK. Now we’ve ignored and dismissed 60% of the population. How do you propose to do that and still advance policy in a democracy?

                Rather than placating the right, you work too ridicule and humiliate them - make their stances unreasonable to sympathise with, let alone adopt.

                Then you’ve got to deal with the civility politics backlash, but how much has that ever really hurt the GOP - their base love it.

      And he’s the kind of person who’ll just keep stepping further over the line until the hammer finally comes down. Judges know this type, and they usually throw them in jail sooner because they know the violations will only get worse.

      But I doubt this guy’s ever going to jail. He’s rich and famous, so…different rules.
