Excellent. May his orange jumpsuit soon follow.
No mugshot “because the president is recognizable.” I guess that’s a thing, though I’ve never heard of it being used before.
The president certainly is recognizable … thing is, he’s a dead ringer for Joe Biden.
His skin is already orange, don’t you think his wardrobe should match it?
he pleaded not guilty. and his lawyer said this is “an attack on america”.
'cause he had boxes of papers he wasn’t supposed to have, that this is an attack on america? yeah, okay 🙄
This is gonna be wild… the feds hardly ever lose.
With that, I’m very curious to see the fallout should he be convicted.
i’m a little worried some of his cultists may find their way onto the jury and block a conviction
All it takes is one. They’ll refuse to consider anything other than not guilty.
they have him on tape showing people documents that he says are classified and that he also knows that he could have declassified them while in office but that he hasn’t.
i am not excited to see the fallout, especially right before i am about to move out of a red state 🙃
I work with many people who are so upset over this, calling it injustice and how horrible that we choose to prosecute Trump when we should instead be jailing Hillary, Harris, and Biden.
I bite my tongue and don’t say anything but it’s so frustrating.
As far as Hillary goes I am not sure why Trump’s DoJ didn’t hand down an indictment if it had evidence that she ultimately committed a crime? I guess the same is true for Hunter.
To my knowledge and I am prefacing this with I could be wrong. In order to charge Hillary for the email incident they would have had to prove either Intent or Gross negligence and when it came down to Hillary I dont think the Doj had anything along the lines of these two factors, whereas trump and they even qoute him, hes talking about how the information is still classified but yada yada this happened, that fills the intent part and then for the gross negligence part they talk about how they found the boxes of files just strewn about everywhere in the club.
Feel free to correct me, this is just my understanding.
same here. i’m all for treating everyone as equal, but i’m pretty sure nothing hillary was already investigated and iirc biden was slapped on the wrist for not returning some documents. but hey, you know, one box is the same as rooms full of boxes, apparently
The difference seems to me, as far as I know (please correct me if I have missed something) is that Biden and related parties cooperated with getting the documents returned while Trump hid and tried to erase evidence that he had them. And I believe that some have yet to be found, potentially sold off.
his lawyer said this is “an attack on america”.
I’m wondering if the lawyers who quit did so because they were too embarrassed to say shit like that in court, despite a certain client’s demands.
the Justice Department recommended the defendants be released with no financial or special conditions as they aren’t a “flight risk.”
Being “arrested” is not the way I remember it
This title is a little misleading. No, Trump has not been arrested but he did appear in court. He is not in any form of jail (yet).
We need one of those mod appliable (or vote-appliable?) “Misleading title” or “headline altered” tags maybe
Biden returned the documents before they even know they were gone and he was the one who told them he had them. Trump refused to return the documents when they were requested back and he is caught on tape admitting to knowing he wasn’t supposed to have them. Also he asked his lawyers to destroy evidence.
Huge difference between a crime with someone cooperating and someone who tries to destroy evidence. Also the content of trump’s documents seem like they’re higher level and more highly classified.
