So what exactly is the purpose of all of these prosecutions ?
To keep Trump off of ballots ?
To taint him to the point of unelectability ?
Or
To lock him up for his crimes, whatever they might be ?
I would like to think that it is the last one. The first two are clearly political election interference and anti democratic and are not working.
The last one is the only legitimate purpose as well.
So you have a bona fide chance to lock him up for criminal contempt. Take it. Do it. It is the goal. Yes or no ?
How about trump just not engaging in threatening justice workers and people in the jury? Yes, there is a two tier justice system and he is on the top tier, getting away with far more than most defendants would. If you want to be a politician, you can claim that anything opposing your actions is political, even if those actions include contempt of court. Just stop misbehavin
(And stop supporting pegople who rort the legal system)
I suspect his strategy is to set up a basis for drawing out the appeal process. "Holding me in contempt was unfair and should invalidate the trial" That is the scenario that the judge has to navigate.
Trump Supporter: âIt doesn't matter what he (Trump) does. I'm going to vote for him.â
Reporter: âEven if he had a political opponent killed?â
Trump Supporter: âAbsolutely.â
It's a cult.
If not in name, then in fact.
These Trump cultists have brainwashed themselves. They can't be reasoned with because they are not reasonable human beings. They are deeply unhappy people who've convinced themselves that they can only feel joy by inflicting pain and misery on others.
They can't lift themselves up, so they tear others down.
It is impossible for this ideology to create a better future (even for themselves) or to govern at a minimum level of competence. It's impossible. This ideology can ONLY destroy.
Hell, these people can't even live in peace with THEMSELVES, let alone the rest of us — and all you have to do is look at the current MAGA Republican House to see that.
You're not going to change their minds.
You can't.
Like alcoholism, they have to WANT to change first. And they don't. They enjoy this addiction, it makes them feel better about their own miserable existence. You can't save these people, but they can damn well drag YOU down with them.
You better show up.
You better do your duty, whether you want to or not, whether you like the choices or you don't. You better do your duty to the country, to the future, to yourselves.
Or you won't have a future.
Srsly? You guys are gonna jump on the sleep thang? Dude, we've got bets down heah on whether The Cantaloupe King can even make it alive to November.
You can't con your sub-conscience forever. It knows the jig is up. There are some that believe all of this just may give the creature cancer. All the more soapy oprey for the Magas.
I'm surprised at you. Pace y'selves. This is a marathon, gentlemen.
My knowledge of the issue predates your update. Initially it was no way, José.
Was also part of the contempt of court issues he is facing.
Personally, I want him found in contempt and locked up as threatened. Stop the bs and do it or shut up and move on.
But I really want him locked up. The line needs to be crossed. We need to see how far this will be taken for perspective and future reference purposes.
Hardly. If he was he could go to his son's high school graduation without being thrown in jail for doing it.
When is the graduation Kurt?
Hint: there's plenty of time...
That doesn't stop Trump from saying stupid shit that you're happy to repeat. Poor Donnie... always punished... such a victim... if only the world was a just place.
Trump simultaneously complains about a two-tiered system of justice, while enjoying benefits no-one else in the country would.
Anybody who can release the name of a judge, prosecutor, or family member of someone and then have dozens...hundreds...thousands of people harassing that person should be forced to follow judicial guidelines. Not for Kurt. He complains about the process while ignoring the reasons that things like gag orders are in place.
Butâ¦we are a nation of laws. Show respect for the judicial system. Intimidation of witnesses is wrong. Why canât he just do as the judge instructs?
Is he above the law? A dictator? A god?
just another Russian asset if you ask me, taking everyone for a ride, out to sow discord, division and distrust to ultimately weaken the U.S. so that Russia can expand into the void.
He's been surprisingly successful. Best investment Putin ever made.
So the judge wants to lock up Trump for 30 days for contempt.
Go ahead, do it. Talk is real cheap these days.
Lock him up, lock him up, ...
and the revolution will be televised ...
