Agreed on the second point.
Interesting take. I agree that Hunter was indicted on these charges because of who he is. Nonetheless, he broke the law and by most accounts received a fair trial.
Totally different scenarios I’m terms of the clarity that any felony was committed and in terms of who prosecuted the crime. And why. And where.
Of course. There’s always an excuse for Trump’s aberrant, narcissistic behavior as its always someone else’s fault. Always.
Got cha.....just like elections.
See what happened here? Instead of indiscriminately celebrating the conviction of a known shithead and son of the Presidential candidate I don’t like, I hold an opinion that the fact that he was tried at all was political. And I didn’t like it.
Although many of your points above have merit, there are a couple of differences:
Hunter, tried in Delaware. And prosecuted by someone with no political ties or motivation to Trump.
if the crimes were committed in NY, where should the trial have taken place?
I'm what world is NYC not trump's home turf? He has his name on F-ing building for crying out loud. In Manhattan. Literally his home for years.
Come on, lowcountry. It was a Trump/Barr appointed special prosecutor who preceded the current administration and who brought a case that typically doesn't see the light of day. If anyone wanted to whine about unfairness there are plenty of extraordinary circumstances you could point to with this trial. Bottom line, Biden was prosecuted and convicted for felonies he clearly committed by a jury of his peers.
Curious in specific examples in which Trump tried to undermine the rule of law? Also, your thoughts of current President’s philosophy of enforcing rule of law?
They keep saying the laws are broken, for the border, but are not enforcing the laws on the books.
@jlson412 amd @mithcelldawg - replying to both
Doesn't change the "home turf" narrative. He could've been convicted in Floyd County GA and folks would complain about an unfair jurisdiction.
Every word he has spoken about election fraud has turned out to be a lie, there is plenty of evidence that he knew he was lying, and he has continued with the lies despite the continued absence of evidence.
The Bidens have been knowingly breaking the law for decades. Joe himself has lied about it a million times. The big difference is that they are more skillful in plausible deniability and the use of the system than most. Perfected by 50 years in “public service”.
“Biden has his issues, but undermining the rule of law is generally not one of them”
C‘’Mon man. He invented the law. Grew up in the slums of Harlem and went on to study under Perry Mason himself. Actually juked Mason out of his jockstrap en route to his 98th touchdown of the year at Yale.
That is the big disconnect. It blows my mind that lefties and independents actually believe that.
Do you believe the constant doubt casting of our judicial system and election fixing claims for the last 4 years have been good for our democracy?
You would put a gun in the hands of an addict?
It is why they are really not worth arguing with. They parrot the government and the government’s news media and any opposing view is illegitimate to them because it opposes the “official” view. I can not imagine any course to forming opinions more stupid than that. I am determined to cease protracted arguments with them because I can not imagine anything more pointless. You might as well have a discussion with Jennifer Rubin because in effect that’s what you’re doing.
Even Will admitted someone likely paid her to come forward. Do you believe no one pushed her to come forward 13 days before the election? She went back to them for more money when things went south. They dropped her. The case had been dropped before. You know that too right. Maybe not everyone. Anyone who is not unbelievably gullible and thinks she decided on her own to come forward ten years later wouldn’t be included I guess.
No I don’t. I think he should have moved on. Without Jan 6th, no one would consider voting for anyone on the left this cycle if you have a brain. I think Trump goes away. The news and democrats wouldn’t let him go away. So here we are.
