I seriously doubt that any prison time will be served. You’re talking about someone with Secret Service protection, which would mean putting agents behind bars with him. Not gonna happen, even if the kangaroo courts manage a conviction.

What is it specifically that makes these bogus charges? Have you reviewed the indictments and feel that they are weak cases? From what I have seen, it appears that they have very good cases against him for violating the law. It feels like you're just in the "Trump is a divisive politician so this must be political" camp of "logic". Or else you're just in the "own a lib by spouting whatever anti-Democrat propaganda I hear" mode.

Yes, I agree with you that there are some practical issues surrounding jailing a former President. But if he is found guilty of multiple counts then I do not see how they cannot do it.

Someone recently got sentenced to 3 years in prison for a fraction of the willful retention of classified documents that Trump is being charged with. And Trump did much more to knowingly obstruct the DoJ in his case. Like with the NCAA, it seems that obstructing an investigation seems to carry more penalty than the infraction itself.

The POTUS has the authority to verbally declassify documents. It’s political gamesmanship and a direct thwarting of the will of the people, just like the 2020 election.

His lawyers do 99% of the stuff that takes up time. He might miss a few days of campaigning here and there for court appearances but the vast majority of primaries are long since done by the time that May 2024 court date hits.

As for smearing his name? Charging him with crimes seems to bolster his status as the GOP frontrunner so I don't see that as the point, either. None of your reasons hold water.

randylahey wrote: ↑Mon Aug 07, 2023 10:27 am The only reason trumps numbers continue to climb with indictments, is it just brings more attention to how broken and corrupt the system is. Trumps "crimes" are not legitimate and real crimes and we all know it. It's just political drama

His numbers continue to go up because the American people are tired of this broken system, and trump is the political outsider with enough power and courage to take on the deep state

Just blindly parroting social media propaganda talking points while telling everyone else they are blind parrots of social media propaganda. Same old, same old.

I can set my watch to Randy and Mich that when I see a new angle on the spin being put on this nonsense by Trump supporters via my social media feeds that they will be here spouting those exact same talking points within 24 hours in their arguments. They hit at a 100% rate.
