Should be fun to watch the trials. I say there's a 40% chance of him being convicted but it will be good for the country to see the extent at which he tried to overthrow the will of the people.

17 ( +20 / -3 )

Oh, he’ll be convicted of many charges. Particularly the classified documents charges.

It’s a slam dunk case. Others have been convicted of lesser charges recently in classified documents charges and are in prison right now.

Equal justice under the law.

Bass, you listed 8 trials. You're saying all 8 judges are out to get him and purposely planned trial dates to hurt him? Seems unlikely on its face.

And don't all these trials help him? You guys say that every time he's indicted. How is helping him election intefearance?

16 ( +19 / -3 )

A court date just one day before super tuesday. Nope. No election interference whatsoever.

He had the option to bring it forward, so that's his decision.

15 ( +17 / -2 )

would “create an enormous strain on the judicial resources” of the court

Trump throughout his long life has used the courts to his personal, private benefit. Trump and his Republican (aka RICO) cronies appointed judges at all levels in attempts to bias decisions that favor the elite establishment.

You would have said the same if it were 1 month before Super Tuesday. Or 1 month afterward. Or any time this century.

Nope. Trump and his cult followers will whine and stamp their feet no matter when or what.

Get this mob boss to trial ASAP.

Even the routine hearing for Chesebro was all over the news and repeated afterward. A Trump trial is going to be OJ Simpson x1000.

Two Tier to be more exact.

LoL Yes, holding Donald to account for his crimes is unfair. LoL LMAO even.

11 ( +15 / -4 )

Doesn’t matter, they daisy-chained the trail dates to make it harder for him to go on the campaign trail.

Nonsense. But I hope it’s true anyway. Boohoo. Poor widdle me, it’s not fair. Doesn’t it get tiring supporting someone who is always a whining loser victim? Your only hope some imagined pendulum revenge fantasy that keeps getting postponed?

Must be terrible.

What a circus!

Of course he did: he's trying to run out the clock so people don't see him being led away in handcuffs before the election. The question is whether he will still be led away in handcuffs after Jan. 20th if he wins.

Seen here flipping a burger. There’ll be plenty more flipping to come.

10 ( +12 / -2 )

So yes, it is 100% election interference. These dates are just by coincidence, what are the chances? Lol

You listed 10 court dates spread over an entire year. The odds of them not being near some kind of election event are pretty slim.

Would you prefer he were allowed to be elected first and then do it all later?

I’ll be sure to try that in court if I’m ever on the stand; we can’t hold the trial now, it’s my nephew’s wedding in September and then of course Halloween.

It’s interference in his personal freedom, the entire purpose of criminal investigations.

10 ( +13 / -3 )

The trials are coming and there's nothing Trump or his base can do about it. Scream about dates all you want. Won't change anything at all.

10 ( +13 / -3 )

Jailing the Proud Boys, harassing Trump and super patroit Navarro for protesting plausible election irregularities and exercising free speech rights under democracy whilst every investigation into princeling Hunter goes nowhere. Where is the outrage from rules based countries. It was all condemnation when it comes to China and Russia but what kind of country jails their own citizens for trying to protect democracy.

lol the proud boys are rightwing extremists, and Donald isn't being harassed for free speech. Calm down.

Verified criminals do not choose schedules convenient for the lifestyle and future plans! The justice system decides.

If the schedule is inconvenient then Trump should not have broken the law. Problem solved!

10 ( +12 / -2 )

Bass: That’s exactly what the Dems want and have planned.

I don't think the Dems planned the trial dates, but if you want to feel frustrated about it, go right ahead. I won't stop you.

Constitutionally that would make more sense.

There's a part of the Constitution that allows people running for office to delay their trials? Never heard that one before.

There’s a lot they can do and will do.

They can file motions to have the dates moved, but unless there's a compelling reason, none will be moved. Unless you're talking more about Trump fans calling in bomb threats or something. I think we can both agree it's something that's possible given their violent history.

when they don’t have the WH anymore

Already escaping to your safe place in the future? It's pretty early in the discussion for your favorite coping mechanism when present day isn't working out so well for you.

@randy j: No election interference whatsoever.

For reasonable people, no, but for the Trump cultists, US and foreign, they'll just use the twistest spin that this constitutes 'election interference' and ignore what real election interference actually was, they'll add this to the lengthy list of ways they and their cult boss have been victimized. Will the money the cult members contribute also be used for legal help for Trumo's dwarves, or will Trump just take it all for himself.

9 ( +13 / -4 )

Bass: Trying to hobble and hinder him in every possible conceivable way is by definition election interference.

So do his legal troubles help or hurt him? You fist pump the air with each new indictment, then cry victim when they move forward.

Trump has had plenty of time to prepare. It’s been two and a half years since the dirty deeds. He knew this day was coming eventually.

BTW, where’s that bombshell evidence of election fraud that Trump was going to present?

8 ( +27 / -19 )

you listed 8 trials. You're saying all 8 judges are out to get him

The swamp, absolutely!

The judge Trump appointed, member of the Federalist Society, constitutional absolutist is a swamp dweller too?

I agree absolutely!

Don’t need to scream, just like the Dems better not scream when they don’t have the WH anymore, but something tells me that they will. Lol

Another revenge fantasy. You’d better keep up to date, the Biden impeachment inquiry you were dancing about yesterday looks like a no go. Thanks to 45’s DOJ no less. Lol.

President Trump isn’t concerned about all these illegal charges.

How do you know? Did a rightwing North American podcast host tell you?

The world has woken up to the Marxist/globalist agenda and the world is fighting back

Hysterical.

He explained: "Everybody thought Hillary Clinton was unbeatable, right? But we put together a Benghazi special committee, a select committee. What are her numbers today? Her numbers are dropping. Why? Because she's untrustable. But no one would have known any of that had happened, had we not fought."

Which, I'll add, it appears to me they are attempting to do with Biden right now, and this inquisition investigation they are holding.

6 ( +9 / -3 )

Well, maybe one of our MAGA-friends will have the courage to answer this today;

Ah yes, the "Green Bay Sweep" - otherwise know by its author John Eastman as a VIOLATION OF FEDERAL STATUTE...

Eastman admitted to Greg Jacob, Vice President Mike Pence’s counsel, who recounted a White House meeting on Jan. 4, 2021, in which Eastman said ****he told Trump that his plan to thwart the counting of the Electoral College violated federal statute.

So how can this be a "witch hunt" if one of the suspects arrested has already confessed to the crime - and clearly implicated another suspect?

Sounds like the only hope Trump has is to call witnesses to vouch for his character....

Given his comments yesterday, perhaps Putin will take the stand to defend his BFF...or maybe Stormy?

6 ( +8 / -2 )

Not really, even the majority of liberals polled claim these witch hunts are politically motivated

Can you point out which poll says that?

6 ( +8 / -2 )

President Trump isn’t concerned about all these illegal charges.

How do you know?

That's a good question, how do you know he isn't concerned?

If the Democrats dont hurry to find anyone with actual skills to lead the country Trump will win and there is nothing you can do about it.

Nice little bit of gaslighting there.

Jailing the Proud Boys, harassing Trump and super patroit Navarro for protesting plausible election irregularities and exercising free speech rights under democracy whilst every investigation into princeling Hunter goes nowhere. 

There are no "plausible election irregularities". None, zero. Every one of the sixty something allegations were proved false.

Conspiring to overturn an election through fraudulent means is not protected free speech. It is conspiracy to commit a crime. Your argument goes nowhere.

6 ( +8 / -2 )

Jimizo: I’d be fascinated by a poll showing the majority of liberals believe this is a politically motivated witch hunt.

Recent poll, if you want real numbers:

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/17/us/politics/trump-indictments-polls.html

"A majority of Americans, in four recent polls, said Mr. Trump’s criminal cases were warranted. Most were surveyed before a grand jury in Georgia indicted him over his attempts to subvert the 2020 election, but after the federal indictment related to Jan. 6."

I can't find anything after Georgia in the last 30 days.

Trump is facing 4 trials not 8 or 10.

I think they're including civil trials, as well as trials of his companies etc.

He still has lots of time to hold rallies, tweet, go on Fox & rightwing friends and poison the jury pool. Faced with overwhelming evidence of crimes committed (already public knowledge) jury nullification by one cultish knucklehead is all he can hope for to avoid guilty verdicts. His two aces in the hole to avoid serving serious time are his celebrity status (ex-potus) and his age. Before this reality show is over, the country is going to run out of popcorn.

Says the people that are doing the same about a looming Biden impeachment inquiry. ROFL!

As I thought, not up to date. Scroll up a bit, there’s an article you’ll like.

5 ( +7 / -2 )

Bass: Not to the country, even a big percentage of libs that don’t like Trump think these trials are politically motivated.

Not sure why you keep posting old polls about singular trials (this one about Stormy) or trials that don't involve Trump (ie Trump org trial).

And I'm surprised that you don't see that the 50% poll numbers are usually split by party lines.

What's telling is when we see numbers get over 60%, which your article shows is the percentage of people who say Trump's crimes are believable. You don't get to those numbers without Republicans and independents voting against you.

So thanks for posting that. The takeaway is that a vast majority believe Trump could have done something illegal.

Leader of the Proud Boys, 22 years imprisonment. More to follow.

The sooner he's in jail, the better. I just sad I don't live in Fulton county, so I can't be part of the jury pool.

If you don't like the democracy, there are built-in ways to change it - through elections. If you don't like the outcome of fair elections, to bad. Your ideas aren't convincing enough. Find some new ideas.

This is what the former President and Republican members of the House and Senate may need to worry about:

Fourteenth Amendment  Equal Protection and Other Rights

Section 3 Disqualification from Holding Office

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

A court date just one day before super tuesday. Nope. No election interference whatsoever.

Of course. All you have to do is look at the dates of all his trials. 11/2 is the Trump org. Civil suit. 11/23 is the start of the GA trial. His defamation lawsuit with that woman 1/15 the same day the Iowa caucuses start. 1/29 is the pyramid scheme class action suit. 3/4 is the start of the J6 trial and 3/5 is Super Tuesday.

3/25 trial starts in the hush money trial with that porn star woman 5/20 is the classified docs case trial, 7/15 is the Republican National Convention 11/5 is Election Day.

So yes, it is 100% election interference. These dates are just by coincidence, what are the chances? Lol

So which dates in the following year would you choose?

You listed 10 court dates spread over an entire year.

That’s exactly what the Dems want and have planned.

The Dems have input on deciding court dates.

How do you know that he is concerned? Trump is to cool and knows exactly what’s going on is completely illegal. 

I'm not sure he is "cool" but he certainly knew that Eastman's scheme to draft fake, fraudulent elector lists and have Pence refuse to certify the results was "completely illegal" - Eastman told him so....

Eastman admitted to Greg Jacob, Vice President Mike Pence’s counsel, who recounted a White House meeting on Jan. 4, 2021, in which Eastman said *****he told Trump that his plan to thwart the counting of the Electoral College violated federal statute.*

Trump will not be a “thing” after next year, I believe. I don’t even think he’ll be the Republican candidate.

There are just too many walls closing in on him.

Look at this - another Trump lawyer and confidant has admitted under oath that she lied about election fraud in 2020...

Jenna Ellis was censured by a disciplinary judge in Colorado Wednesday, in the latest effort to hold accountable attorneys who boosted former President Donald Trump’s 2020 election reversal gambits.

*Ellis signed a stipulation stating that several comments she made about the 2020 election violated professional ethics rules barring reckless, knowing or intentional misrepresentations** by attorneys, according to documents posted by Colorado’s Office of Attorney Regulation Counsel.*

https://www.yahoo.com/news/ex-trump-attorney-admits-statements-190130036.html

"Intentional misrepresentations"....or in other words bald-faced lies...

So Eastman has admitted his scheme was a "violation of federal law", Giuliani admitted under oath that "this is not a fraud case" and that "we just don't have any evidence", Rudy also confessed under oath that his accusations of fraud against Georgia election workers were "false", now Ellis admitted to lying about a "stolen election"...

When will our MAGA-friends wake up to the reality that they've been played for suckers for years...the evidence is right in front of them...

More evidence that the Repubs are self-imploding....

The war of words between Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz and Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy has escalated, with Gaetz accusing McCarthy of "lying like a dead dog."

At one point earlier this week, Gaetz floated the prospect of ousting McCarthy with the unlikely aid of Democratic Congressman Eric Swalwell.

Romney's new book has both McConnell and McCarthy slamming Trump;

"It wasn't for you so much as for him," McConnell replied. "He's an idiot. He doesn't think when he says things."

"You're lucky," McConnell continued. "You can say the things that we all think. You're in a position to say things about him that we all agree with but can't say."

Since corruption is not being investigated and prosecuted equally among U.S. politicians, and more and more people realize this everyday, more action against Trump only increases support for him.

He won in 2016 for similar reasons. Oh, he is guilty all right. But all the top players are.

Will Trump be the first president to serve from a prison cell instead of the Oval Office?

He's not going to prison, so No.

I will note that the charges that have been approved do not require the proof of intent.

The prosecution absolutely has to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that intent on the president's part that he knew what he was doing and the outcome of what would happen.

Again, good luck with that.

Trump will not be a “thing” after next year, I believe. I don’t even think he’ll be the Republican candidate.

Yeah, been hearing that since 2015

There are just too many walls closing in on him.

Also been hearing that since 2016

The country looks for a new Messiah every 5-6 years,

You guys still haven’t given up on Barry.

and I truly believe people have had enough and are fed up with the antics of Congress and both Biden and Trump.

Biden even more so, look at the latest polls, they’re stuck with him or at the very worst Kamala.

The rest of the world is laughing.

Most Americans don’t care what the world thinks, particularly the ones that don’t live in Blue quickly run-down cities

It’s time to move on.

You do you.

Pure fantasy. 

To the left. Not to the country, even a big percentage of libs that don’t like Trump think these trials are politically motivated.

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/americans-see-trump-investigation-political-also-believable-reutersipsos-2023-03-21/.

You and your MAGA brethren have repeatedly said that these “sham” trials only make Trump more popular.

Oh, they do, but that doesn’t mean that the they’re not politically motivated and won’t stop the Dems from trying to get him off the ballot.

And that he will definitely be acquitted. So why are y’all whining and stamping your feet about election interference? You should be dancing

Says the people that are doing the same about a looming Biden impeachment inquiry. ROFL!

I don't think the Dems planned the trial dates,

I don’t think libs believe in God.

There's a part of the Constitution that allows people running for office to delay their trials? Never heard that one before.

No, but the Constitution does allow the former president to run even if he’s convicted.

They can file motions to have the dates moved, but unless there's a compelling reason, none will be moved.

Doesn’t mean they should roll over and not try.

Unless you're talking more about Trump fans calling in bomb threats or something. I think we can both agree it's something that's possible given their violent history.

Or the libs 3 month violent protest campaign that left (mostly minority) communities in total shambles.

Already escaping to your safe place in the future?

Absolutely not, no need to, just laying out the inevitable.

It's pretty early in the discussion for your favorite coping mechanism

or your partisan TDS one.

Is he suggesting a conspiracy by the democrats

Yes.

Mr Trump, who needs to lose weight and get a better haircut is as bad as all the other chaps.

These leaders are bad in different ways you see, that’s how they get to the top.They need sociopathic tendencies and a lock fo empathy towards human life to do that job so these are the chaps we get.

Trump then Biden, two men I wouldn’t trust to make me a cup of tea.

Jailing the Proud Boys, harassing Trump and super patroit Navarro for protesting plausible election irregularities and exercising free speech rights under democracy whilst every investigation into princeling Hunter goes nowhere. Where is the outrage from rules based countries. It was all condemnation when it comes to China and Russia but what kind of country jails their own citizens for trying to protect democracy.

You listed 10 court dates spread over an entire year.

That’s exactly what the Dems want and have planned.

The odds of them not being near some kind of election event are pretty slim. 

Look at the dates, all perfectly aligned with these primaries.

Would you prefer he were allowed to be elected first and then do it all later? 

Constitutionally that would make more sense.

It’s interference in his personal freedom, the entire purpose of criminal investigations.

Uh-huh…lol

The trials are coming and there's nothing Trump or his base can do about it.

There’s a lot they can do and will do.

Scream about dates all you want. Won't change anything at all.

Don’t need to scream, just like the Dems better not scream when they don’t have the WH anymore, but something tells me that they will. Lol

Anyway, Trump is unstoppable..

Any attack they make on him becomes stronger and has more support..

Let's get used to it...

Nice picture cooking burgers..

GO BURGER TRUMP 2024 !!..

LOL !!..

A court date just one day before super tuesday. Nope. No election interference whatsoever.

-18 ( +13 / -31 )

A court date just one day before super tuesday. Nope. No election interference whatsoever.

Of course. All you have to do is look at the dates of all his trials. 11/2 is the Trump org. Civil suit. 11/23 is the start of the GA trial. His defamation lawsuit with that woman 1/15 the same day the Iowa caucuses start. 1/29 is the pyramid scheme class action suit. 3/4 is the start of the J6 trial and 3/5 is Super Tuesday.

3/25 trial starts in the hush money trial with that porn star woman 5/20 is the classified docs case trial, 7/15 is the Republican National Convention 11/5 is Election Day.

So yes, it is 100% election interference. These dates are just by coincidence, what are the chances? Lol

Oh, he’ll be convicted of many charges. Particularly the classified documents charges.

Go for it. We shall see.

It’s a slam dunk case.

The left always say this. Funny, when it comes to trail investigations on conservatives the left claim slam dunk, when it’s a liberal, you’re just chasing your tail, it’s a witch hunts. Liberals know an outcome of a case because they’re always right, if it’s conservatives, it’s just a crime and waste of time. ROFL

Others have been convicted of lesser charges recently in classified documents charges and are in prison right now.

Not for long…

Equal justice under the law.

Two Tier to be more exact.
