That’s because Trump was trying to use the Justice Department to forward his own interests, so he assumes that any other president does/did the same thing.
and by implying that, he discredits the government in general, which is always his purpose
Please don’t infer that sort of “4D chess” nonsense. This is not an act or a strategy. He’s exactly as stupid as he appears.
no it’s something you need to understand about him… he’s just like a mafia boss, or he learned it from them…
What you need to understand about him is that he’s a fucking idiot.
thank you… i appreciate that… very helpful… i’ll let you know if i need more from you, alright…
His purpose is staying out of prison. Discrediting the government in general is a means to that end.
and stuffing his pockets with anything he can get his hands on in the chaos
So… he did just admit to using election funds for his personal legal battles, which is illegal… right?
“Resources that would have gone into Ads and Rallies, will now have to be spent fighting these Radical Left Thugs in numerous courts”
Or you could spend your own money
“It is Election Interference, & the Supreme Court must intercede,”
That isn’t how the court works you file in whatever court has jurisdiction then appeal if you have cause. It would be contrary to standards for them to even comment at this juncture.
If he wanted to campaign unimpeded he could have simply not committed the crimes he has openly admitted to on TV
Wait…
“Resources that would have gone into Ads and Rallies, will now have to be spent fighting these Radical Left Thugs in numerous courts”
Did he just admit to another crime?
I don’t think so. You can put your own money into running a political campaign.
However, the IMPLICATION that he uses campaign donations for his legal defense is there. And stupid MAGA donors will believe that’s how their money could be spent and that it’s OK.
I can easily see a scenario in the coming months where someone asks Trump to clarify this and he confirms he plans to use campaign funds and will say that he’s allowed to.
It’s all super PAC money that has very little rules about its use. They’ve been using it thus way all along and openly raising money for legal defense. He may be admitting to exerting control over the super pac, which is supposed to be against the law, but seems to be practically unenforceable.
IMO this is mainly a way to communicate talking points to his supporters. They want to start a lot of talk about Biden’s “election Interference” to make it feel like this is something both sides do but only Trump is getting charged for.
This is the correct answer.
There’s a part of me that believes he only ran again because, aside from his ego, he believed it would make him immune to indictments.
Unfortunately Mango Mussolini could even be arrested and still win the presidency from prison… (Although it is a good thing the rules exist in that way)
Horrible hypothetical: he wins and pardons himself of all federal crimes, but he’s still convicted of state crimes in NY and GA and has prison sentences. What happens?
Nixon was apparently warned against trying to pardon himself because no man can be judge over his own case. Clear conflict of interest.
Idk how well that would hold up now as a reasoning, considering…. gestures broadly
Constitutional crisis. Decent band name, horrible time to live through.
Reminds me of the old Chinese curse, ”may you live in interesting times.”
Mango Mussolini
👌🏽
So my question is, if he won the presidency from prison, would they let him out of prison during his presidential term? Would the White House temporarily have some black bars on it?
There is neither precedent or written rules for it. Whatever happens will be a case of ‘made up as we go along’
Imho that’s reason enough not to find out.
Imagine the global reputation hit from a convicted treasonous felon being the leader of the country… woof. So much worse than him just having the support of such a huge swath of the country…
We’ve already lost credit rating due to this clown
Imagine if every presidential public appearance, he has to do it wearing his orange jumpsuit.
Thank God he’s not smart because if I were him and doing these things on purpose I would wear that orange jumpsuit as a Red badge of courage and end up becoming emperor or at least Hitler part 2 electric boogaloo.
If he wanted to campaign unimpeded he could have simply not committed the crimes he has openly admitted to on TV
For being the party that supposedly represents “law and order”, Republicans really seem soft on crime (at least on the ones they continually committed).
Did he just say he was going to use campaign funds for personal benefit?
🧐
Can’t the SCOTUS adopt cases they think have some sort of importance outside of the apeal system? I thought I heard of them just recently doing that on a case they ruled on.
Typically they don’t but this supreme court has already shown what it thinks of established legal procedure.
adopt cases
there is no case to adopt… he wants them to create one or something, i don’t know… neither does he…
You have to fix your formatting.
“It is Election Interference, & the Supreme Court must intercede,” he wrote.
The first four words seem relevant to him, just not in the way he means.
Donald Trump is right! It’s absolutely inappropriate for Biden’s politically appointed Attorney General to prosecute Trump!
… Wait? What’s that you say? Biden’s Attorney General famously dropped the ball on even INVESTIGATING Trump? And … What’s this? An independent special counsel was appointed EXPRESSLY for the purpose of making sure that investigations of Trump’s criminality were handled by someone who doesn’t report to Biden or anyone else in Biden’s administration?!
In his world he thinks the DOJ operates as the presidents arm. This is one of many reasons he is a bad president
I don’t think he knows how SCOTUS works…
Then again does the SCOTUS know how they work?
The high priests can do whatever they want.
All according to their plan
scotus is corrupt af. totally illegitimate shitcunts.
Or the DOJ
Why the Fuck does he Write like This? It’s Fucking Aggravating.
He’s stupid and can’t read.
It’s how he talks too.
Yeah right, the supreme Court has no actual jurisdiction over anything. What are they going to do, send in the army to free Trump?
Lol
“I KNOW I’M BEING INDICTED BUT WHAT ABOUT HIM?!”
Big fucking affluenza manchild.
every troll spams the GMs and Mods
If he buys Clarence Thomas a new RV or something he might actually get his wish.
Squirm motherfucker! Prison soon!
Is that image of his hair fake?
“hair” lol
Everyone knows it’s just piss flavored cotton candy.
Sounds like he want a couple more charges added on
