Claiming that any investigation into their criminal behavior is an attempt to tear away their God given rights is a core tenant of the Trump Administration. They perfectly recognized that the GOP base would respond favorably to this sort of framing. The GOP and their base of support couldn't have behaved more perfectly for this con game to work as well as it has. I am hoping that the long arm of the law will finally put an end to this repulsive era in our history.

Yeah, they lost their shit when it was mentioned to “defund the police” ….but now, screaming that we should “defund the FBI/DOJ”

If you polled the entire US population who feels that Trump is being persecuted in this investigation, I think you would find that far more than a "ridiculously very small minority" have a first reaction of "well if George Floyd would have just not broken the law then he'd be alive today" instead of "George Floyd was unnecessarily murdered by the police for a petty offense".

If he'd have stayed in the entertainment arena then he wouldn't have had to worry about being targeted in politically motivated investigations.

I think there is definitely political motivation behind the Trump investigations. Which is what it is. He wouldn't be involved in poltically related matters if he had stayed out of politics.Overlander wrote: ↑Tue Aug 09, 2022 2:13 pmIt isn’t really a “politically motivated investigation” when you consistently operated beyond the lawBasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Tue Aug 09, 2022 2:10 pmTrump deserves whatever he has coming to him.Overlander wrote: ↑Tue Aug 09, 2022 1:04 pm

Re: DDD Gets Raided
I'm kind of dim today. Could you explain the political motivation behind a search for illegal possession of classified government documents?
Re: DDD Gets Raided
the motivation would be to wreck him even more for 2024.
last night would not have happened if they did not think he might run again in 24.

Re: DDD Gets Raided
sad that you actually believe that
even more sad that you idiots seem to be cool with him getting away with the corruption and lawlessness
it’s those kinds of sentiments that enable autocrats

Re: DDD Gets Raided
A law enforcement organization investigating a politician for criminal behavior doesn't make it "politically motivated". It has political impacts, but not motivations. The motivation is to investigate criminal activities regardless of whom is suspected of them. Making sure that you perform the raid more than 90 days prior to the mid-term elections because you have stated that you prefer not to perform such activities within 90 days of a federal election isn't even "politically motivated".BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Tue Aug 09, 2022 2:28 pmI think there is definitely political motivation behind the Trump investigations.

And Donald Trump was 100% involved in politically related matter prior to him being a politician. Anyone who lobbies for specific political actions to be taken is involved in political matters and Trump had been doing that at the local, state and federal levels for decades prior to running for President.

Re: DDD Gets Raided
Who is "they"?
On a related note, I get a chuckle that Christopher Wray was nominated by Trump. Just another guy Trump wanted to work for him (actually our country) and of course ridicules for not being his bitch and doing what he was appointed to do.

Agree to disagree. I think it's absolutely politically motivated. Doesn't mean it's not justified.
Re: DDD Gets Raided
1 thing is for sure, there better be something this time. Otherwise storming in there with assault rifles looks awfully bad (and politically motivated).

Re: DDD Gets Raided
It’s sort of surprising it took has long as it did.
Is there any precedent for a politician running off with classified shit and refusing to return it?
Or for taking damn near 2 years for authorities to go get it
Especially for a position as high profile as potus

Re: DDD Gets Raided
Exactly!
How many times are we going to go thru these empty gotchas that result in nothing?
Hopefully this time they finally nail his ass if he's doing things against the law.
And if they swing and miss (again), it will backfire and end up helping Trump come 2024.
