<sarcasm> Really? I'm shocked! </sarcasm>
They may continue to take on Trump for as long as they whish, let's suppose it's all according to the law,
but do you think not being able to put him into jail or fining him for breaking the law does any good to reputation of the US?

I mean the longer this witch hunt goes the bigger the damage to reputation.

Maybe get news from a variety of sources.
My sources are multiple, here is a favorite list:
euronews.com
rt.com
domestic news
theguardian.com/uk

Given these varieties of views I don't think I'm biased.

You nor I are the court system, so let me recommend you hold off on your "verdict". instead of jumping to conclusions one way or the other.

I read some of these sources as well but I'm not seeing what you are supposedly seeing. Maybe also check out Reuters, BBC, and the AP.

One of the most funniest things with news is when one realizes differences in reports.
One news say that the other news says the opposite or contradicts the other news.
It then all boils down to what the readers likes more, this is what is called "bias".

A better approach in my view is trying to catch the news in lies at least twice, and simply never come back and visit only those which are credible and honest.

What I mean is that when a policeman runs after a thief but can't catch him.
The longer this run goes, funnier it becomes right?

The news also say:


I'm not very familiar with trump case but judging by the news so far this all looks like some revenge to me, and if FBI fails to validate their raid this will only prove that the government is taking on on Trump.

That is a very very strange conclusion to come to. Why would the FBI be out for revenge? Why would a federal judge sign a warrant for such a search? Was he out for revenge too? Anyone that has honestly followed politics knows that Trump is guilty of multiple infractions. This one appeared to be about his taking papers and mementos that were not his to take. As opposed to the relatively minor crime of the Clintons taking furniture and dishes this is a crime that does bar a person from holding future political office.

I'm sure if Trump (or anyone on his level of intelligence) have something of great value to hide such as national archives with who knows how great potential, then they would hide it somewhere where the FBI would not search or somewhere difficult to find, a safe in a house is certainly not safe for such things since it's not immune to FBI and Trump I'm sure knew that if he really had something to steal from the government.
It will certainly be interesting to see how will FBI prove Trump for criminal charges, only time will tell.

You forgot one key factor. Trump is an arrogant idiot. He thinks that everyone else is as idiotic as he is. The FBI took boxes of material out of his house. Technically all it would take would be one paper.

I'm sure FBI agents are that stupid to go into action with a risk of braking the law.
Maybe there are holes in the law which the FBI exploited to cover their operations, and for this reason Trump likely won't be able to prove FBI wrong.

Wow, more conclusion about the FBI that are not based upon evidence at all. Why would the FBI be interested in slowing the law?

Why can't Trump supporters ever face reality? Sorry, that is a bit rhetorical. We all know why. The decent ones would of course no longer be Trump supporters if they ever did that.

That can be a problem for those that are extremely biased. They will not see the errors and lies in their own sources. All news sources make some mistakes. The question is how do they treat those errors? Better sources, such as the New York Times even go so far as to regularly run errata columns. A section of the paper that is devoted to the errors that they made in the past. Trust me, no one wants their work to be referred to their. Far right wing and left wing sources simply ignore their past mistakes. That is why so many of them keep repeating them.

Are we to pretend you care? The damage done by Trump - a racist, misogynist, xenophobic, pathological liar - to the "good to reputation of the US" has been incalculable. The "basket of deplorables" who enable this vile man should disgust anyone with an ounce of humanity and intelligence.

Hellenismos, BTW
5th amendment says


@0:58 Trump says:
"If you're innocent why are you taking the fifth amendment"

That's why he is genius.

Take your pick. Racist. Misogynist. Narcissist. Short attention span. Lack of impulse control. Bully. Poor intellectual ability (bleach anyone?). Self-centred. Lack of empathy. Serial liar.

His actions in regard to speech are truly esoteric.
When he was speaking he would raise his forefinger up like Jesus.

But I suppose you do not know how this is to be interpreted?

Moronic.
