Trump says he expects to be arrested on Tuesday

@mark said in Trump says he expects to be arrested on Tuesday:

Let's rewrite the law for the presidential pardon too

I think that'll take a Constitutional amendment. THat's a big deal, and, though your thoughts are good, this is very, very unlikely.

From the RWEC:

"No doubt Trump will get a political bump in the short term, but what if the case is still going on when the primary season begins? Will Republican primary voters really want to nominate a candidate who is in the midst of a criminal proceeding that theoretically could send him to jail? "

@George-K

There’s a reasonable chance he’ll be fighting criminal indictments in two states and the US by the end of the year.

They told us if Trump was elected we’d be a banana republic. Looks like they were right.

This case is weak but GA and DoJ not at all. AFAIK

Isn't that the purpose of the whole thing? It should drag out until the election.

I guess they could convict him a few weeks before the election.

@George-K

I set ‘em up for ya!

Didn't she make claims about his unusually shaped knob?

Maybe they'll call Junior as a witness?

@Doctor-Phibes

Nah. That was Michael Jackson. You need to study up.

34 counts????

Er...no, Rep. Pelosi. He is innocent. The government has to prove him guilty. That's how it works in this country.

What a bizarre thing for her to say. Another individual who should have retired 15 years ago.

Hate is a very strong emotion.

That a Speaker could make such a fundamental error is . . . what.

Dispiriting.

Not sure if I'm more discouraged about the quality of our political leadership or the voters who put them there.

Sigh.

ETA: Oh, who am I kidding. Have I entirely forgotten AOC?

[Jolly]

You know, many on the right couldn't believe Trump let Hillary walk. Even Hillary was surprised. But, it was for the good of the country.

Well, that contract has now been shredded.

Trump may be the first, but he won't be the last.

Remember that Pandora’s box I mentioned?
