"If you're finding significance in some coincidence,
I recommend looking at the meat of the legal
issues, eg, bank fraud, attempted coup."


All charges brought forth after he announced he was running in 2024.
Are you arguing that he shouldn't be prosecuted
because they took too long to bring the case?
Or do you believe the charge are bogus, & merely
political maneuvering?
Or is this mere complaint that he's being prosecuted
for the wrong reason, even though he should be?
Or is it something else?

Your posts appear to be Trump apologetics, but
I see no clear statement of views. Hence the questions.

I'm saying if he had walked away from politics IMO he wouldn't have been bothered much.
However they want him out of politics and when he announced his 2024 bid, he lit the fuse.

He should be charged and prosecuted just like anyone else for breaking the law(s).
Charged and prosecuted because it was wrong, not charged and prosecuted because its party wars politics.

I don't think so.
But the thought of his becoming Prez again
should put the fear of Cthulhu in any sane human.

Good.

Less clear.

IMO its more about persecution than prosecution.
You do realize that Trump announced that he was running far earlier than the norm. Do you not think that is because Trump is not a total idiot and could see the gathering storm? Your complaint is without merit, especially when one considers that the Republicans in Congress dragged their heels as much as possible when it came to an investigation. They knew that Trump was guilty. If they believed that he was innocent why weren't they pushing for more investigations sooner?

You keep claiming not to be a Trump supporter but your irrational objections to his prosecution tells us otherwise.

Tax evasion, deliberately lying on the federal ATF Form 4473 to illegally purchase a gun and possess a gun while using narcotics. That's it in a nutshell.

Oh! Thank you.
From the reactions I keep seeing, I was honestly expecting something far worse
(Not that I’m saying tax evasion isn’t bad, obviously. Just expected something like being a drug lord or something lol)

I saw a sentence that could be read a couple ways.

If he'd never gotten into politics,
his profile would've been lower.
Also, he'd have never attempted
a coup.
Nothing excuses his treason.

If he had never gotten into politics there wouldn't have been no Jan 6th......
But there still would have been fraud, rape, etc etc and the left wouldn't have gave a crap about any of that or anything else he did.

Do you mean "wouldn't have been Jan 6th"?

The women he assaulted would've given a crap.

Trump made the decision to put himself in the public eye,
& under a microscope. He knew his history was troubled,
even criminal. Both left & right attack when is suits them.
This is no excuse committing crimes, especially fraud & treason.
Trump isn't a victim. He soiled his bed. Now he must lie in it.

"Do you mean "wouldn't have been Jan 6th"?"

Yes. I had already edited it before you replied (while you were in the process of replying)

He commited all kinds of crap throughout his life and they didn't care. That's why I say its political party wars and its about persecution instead of prosecution.


And yes he should be prosecuted for breaking the law(s) just like anyone else should. No one is(should be) above the law.

So it's not about prosecution for real & serious crimes?

That's some pretty discombobulated ranting.
I prefer my rants to be more focused.

Lets forget about Hunters gun and go after Trump lol.
The left persecution is in full swing

Prosecutors cite Trump’s supposed gun purchase as possible crime

"
Federal prosecutors said in a Friday night filing that former president Donald Trump may have broken the law if he bought a handgun at a recent campaign stop in South Carolina.

“The defendant either purchased a gun in violation of the law and his conditions of release, or seeks to benefit from his supporters’ mistaken belief that he did so,” the court filing argues. “It would be a separate federal crime, and thus a violation of the defendant’s conditions of release, for him to purchase a gun while this felony indictment is pending.”

The prosecutors were referring to social media posts by the Trump campaign earlier this week, when a staffer posted a video of Trump — who is the Republican frontrunner for the 2024 presidential nomination— at the Palmetto State Armory, a gun store in Summerville, S.C.

The video “showed the defendant holding a Glock pistol with the defendant’s likeness etched into it. The defendant stated, ‘I’ve got to buy one,’ and posed for pictures,” the prosecutors’ filing states, noting that the staffer posted the video with a caption that said: “President Trump purchases a @GLOCKInc in South Carolina!”

The campaign staffer later deleted the post and retracted the claim, saying Trump did not purchase or take possession of the gun. The latter claim, prosecutors note in their filing, is “directly contradicted by the video showing the defendant possessing the pistol.”

Those laws are unjust and violate the Second Amendment, anyway. I hope the Supreme Court throws them out soon.

Politically its about persecution.
Legally its about prosecution.

I can't explain it any clearer to you beyond that.

I don't think anyone on drugs(illegal and some prescibed) should have a gun.
I don't think anyone out on felony bail should be able to purchase guns.

And to add...
I don't think anyone convicted of violent crimes should have a gun.
I don't think anyone with a mental history should have a gun.
I don't think anyone etc etc

But those are my opinions.

I don't that anyone who is a narcissistic sociopath and wannabe dictator should have a gun either.

But that's just my opinion.
