Look, I'm not exactly one who jumps to defend Trump, but before all the liberals on this site start bashing him for the indictment, I’d like to remind you of John 8:7: And Jesus said unto them, let he who has not used illegal hush money payments to cover up cheating on their third wife by raw-dogging a porn star cast the first stone.
He will be indicted in other cases, convicted in all and spend years under house arrest. The rule of law will be vindicated. Meanwhile Fox will be bankrupt by the Dominion lawsuit. We’ll have a great end of the decade
What I find frightening is all the people talking about a civil war, on Twitter. Y’all are willing to die for Donald trump? They don’t care about us, not me, or the rubes who send their hard earned wages to him. Am I willing to die, so other women can access abortion? Maybe, but that’s not what the end result of a civil war will be. It’s like political divisions are so bad, they want to have live combat with people that don’t agree with them. I’m trying to raise my kid and become a welder, I don’t have time to fight for rights my grandmothers fought for and won, 50 years ago. I live in Florida and they are working really hard to put in a 6 week ban. (I got an iud when they put in the 15 week ban, by the time it is no longer effective my fertility will be a fart in the wind) But I come from addiction and real poverty, I know how much harder life is when you have children you aren’t ready for. You end up putting yourself in situations, like staying with a bad boyfriend, or if you’re very lucky, living with parents and grandparents. I survived by sugar daddies, men with money, that will give me some money for my “time”. Luckily, one took a real interest in me and financed my recovery. One thing we need to talk about is the price of Suboxone. Some pharmacies charge between 4-6$ for a single 8mg dose. Getting clean is very difficult, it’s painful, you have to be in so much pain as a junkie that the pain of not changing has to be greater than that of the change itself. Most clinics want your system to be clean of opiates and still display withdrawal symptoms, before they will give you Suboxone. It’s a rough 7 days. And you have to have your money together, because it’s $ 100s for the appointment, and then the script can be expensive. I already had a valid script when I quit my job (and lost my fantastic insurance)to go to welding school, and the healthcare exchange plans all completely cover the price of the drs visit and the script. Thank you, Obama. The affordable care act also provides no cost birth control, I didn’t pay a dime for my iud, and I strongly urge all childbearing age women in Florida, to run to their birth control providers, and get something permanent, like tubal ligation, your insurance has to cover it, it doesn’t matter what method you choose. That is something they will take aim at next, is insurance covered birth control. They want us all barefoot and pregnant. Fuck them, and fuck you if you agree with them. Women in Florida need to just stop. Stop cooking, stop cleaning, stop fucking your husband, and if you can, stop working. And tell your husband to call their state senator if they want their partner back! Im doing it to my boyfriend...
The worst thing about the Trump indictment will be that we will be flooded with having to hear, see or read about Trump for the next two years. He will dominate the news while the rest of the world will continue to fall apart. The war in Ukraine, the destruction of the climate, inflation, toxic spills, the worsening of the wealth gap — nada. All of those issues will be vastly overshadowed by the ravings of a lunatic and his sycophantic followers. I doubt there will be much physical violence. Even Trumpers don’t like to be on the receiving end of a bullet. There may be more crazies who try to attack the DAs, the courts, drag queens or kids in schools. But that is the culture they have brought to the fore in America.
From what I've read, there are between 30-34 charges that trump will face. If people remember Michael Cohen's testimony, trump did quite a bit of criminal activity in his real estate business. Cohen said trump had no problem over and under valuing property to get the "best deals" with loans and insurances. These charges are bigger than paying off Stormy for a quick one.
GA sounds like they're ready or very close to being ready to indict trump on multiple charges.
The real biggie is Jack Smith. I can only imagine the charges.
Come on, Mr Reich say the word; " Dictator. " Minority rule, whether by one or many, is dictatorship, and that is what has been described and what Trump and his cult are all in for. Your parents can be authoritarian, but this way beyond that. The end of the American democracy is the goal of Trump and his minions, its past time to speak plainly when describing the threat that they represent.
You have to hold Trump accountable. It’s the only thing that has affected his power. The problem has been that his followers didn’t always watch the media that held him accountable. I remember when Watergate was on main stream TV. And we did not have cable or Internet. Everybody was informed.
It wasn’t until it was easy to watch the January 6 trials on broadcast television.(its whereabouts was buried at the beginning even for those of us who wanted to watch it. We had to really search the Web.) but eventually showed up on the 5 o’clock news and it could be found on channel 2 with excerpts of people talking about it in real video. Finally the independents saw it for what it was. There will always be evil people, but if they don’t have followers, they won’t have any power. We need to expose him consistently, and clearly in the 5 o’clock news. There are no longer two sides to climate change and there’s no longer two sides to January 6 in the 5 o’clock news.
Until there was a video about George Floyd in main stream broadcast news, many white people did not know that there was an every day problem of racism. We need to keep holding people accountable in the main stream news. They can’t vote intelligently if they only have fake news. Ironically, while the Republicans were massively, creating fake news, they created the concept of fake news to cover themselves and blamed it on the Democrats. We have to get the truth out in the media.
Corruption is baked into our modern system. 100 years ago, the country had the Teapot Dome scandal - and never created any checks on the Executive, then Nixon’s Vice Presidential follies in Cuba, led to his corruption (war crimes) with Anna Chenault and secret bombings, and $$millions in bribes. Which directly brought us Iran/Contra and $$ billions in secret funds. On to Iraq - a war for profit with pallettes of money “disappearing”. ALL REPUBLICANS.
Are we still so sure we want to fix that party? They were never Loyal Opposition. Trump is just the most obviously corrupt. But he must be aggressively prosecuted, and finally the party needs to collapse under the weight of its avarice and racism.
No matter what anyone would have preferred, even those doing the actual legal work, I do not think there was a choice. Do we believe in some kind of logical accountability in this country or not? Do we believe in the sense and purpose of the law or not? Ignore it at our peril and accept the consequences.
The result of many justified indictments: momentary social platform nonsense and gatherings of no import led and populated by American red neck ignorant fearful racists and a total collapse of the present Republican Party..

It’s like a novel building up to a climax.
1st: NY hush money
2nd: Mar-A-Lago document hording
3rd: Georgia election tampering
4th: January 6th Insurrection
Each case is more significant and involves more co-conspirators.
Maybe this can restore a little bit of faith in the Criminal Justice System.

Essential for justice to demonstrate no one is above the law

Indict him period. Let the chips fall. Let true accountability reign supreme.
The indictment of Trump restores some faith in the hope that everyone is equal under the law.
Nothing will happen. The courts and prisons only exist for the poor and the average American. The wealthy but their way out one way or another.
No matter what anyone would have preferred, even those doing the actual legal work, I do not think there was a choice. Do we believe in some kind of logical accountability in this country or not? Do we believe in the sense and purpose of the law or not? Ignore it at our peril and accept the consequences.
It strengthens democracy and the rule of law. The disgusting GOP response clearly shows they want neither of both so Democracy remains under threat
