He shouldn’t have been allowed to run until all outstanding criminal litigation was completed, and any punishment served/paid.
That attitude was a big part of why Clinton lost in the first place.
Disagree, because it would be abused.
An accusation would all that was needed to take out political opponents.
That’s the shitty part. When it was “adults” it wouldn’t have been an issue, but since children where allowed to run the government it would now be weaponised, as you pointed out.
“Nobody is above the law.”
Lol
Can people start protesting about two tier justice correctly now please?
Got some weed? Be prepared to be SWATted and thrown in jail for years.
Did you just rape, stole, gave top secret material to our enemies and pushed for a coup? Slap on your wrist and pinky winky promise me not to do that again
Our justice system is a fucking sham.
I wish he would try selling loose cigarettes on a NYC street. I hear you don’t even get a trial for that, just straight to sentencing.
I feel like the courts hands were tied here. How do you put a man who was just elected to be the next president in prison, or even on probation? Ultimately, the decision was made by the American voters.
That being said, even if Trump had lost this election, he still probably wouldn’t have done any time in prison, since he still would have been a former president, and that would have been a tricky enough situation.
Never know until we try.
I don’t think we can, honestly.
Like I want Trump locked up, along with any politician who claimed the election was stolen.
But the fact is, the orange shit won 2024 and in 9 days (uuuugh) will
fully pardon himself making any punishment nullifiedbe the president again (thanks for the correction, he can’t pardon himself from state charges.If the various governments actually wanted to punish Trump (they don’t, unfortunately) they would have actually done something and took advantage of the FOUR FUCKING YEARS that there was a possibility of their cases making any impact at all.
Our broken justice system is slower than our corrupt political cycle, which lets those in power do whatever they want.
He cannot pardon himself from state charges.
He can fire anyone who says he can’t.
He can’t fire NY State employees, or any state employees.
He can’t also do felonies and run a coup and get away with it after being founs guilty.
That’s different. This is a game of what he can physically do. If he told a NY State police officer they were fired it would have no effect. If he told an FBI agent they were fired they’re going to go pack up their desk.
See the difference?
I wonder what the fuck is in the water over there, since half the population is crazy!
Lead, lots of lead.
Honestly? We are just stupid and believe America is the best country in every way, despite all the evidence to the contrary. That, coupled with a Fuck You attitude and racism leads us directly to JD Vance.
Cuts to education and removing critical thinking and prep resources from the upbringing of more and more civilians over decades will do that, yep.
Sounds about white
That’s rich
Sounds about orange*. I don’t think even your average white person is this well taken care of in the US court system
