This should do wonders for the two parties they need to compromise in order to run the country while we are barreling towards a default in our debt in a matter of months.

When was the last time the GOP compromised on anything? Serious question.

Gay marriage

What year was that?

We will have to see the indictment to find out, but I am guessing Wessleberg flipped and opened the kimono to additional related fraud.

Are you joking?

Joking about what? NYC is 86% registered Democrat, so how could any Republican expect a fair and unbiased trial there? What's going to stop the Republicans from now trying to idict members of the other party in counties that are 85% registered Republican? And around and around the charades will go.

So it is a charade when the paper trail shows otherwise?

Then don't commit bank, tax and insurance fraud there. Pretty easy. Most people are able to go their whole lives without being indicted.

Unless he has seen the indictment, how does he know what is flimsy?

Also, irony.

If he's found not guilty on this charge, I'll wait it out for the Georgia election tampering and Jan 6 indictments to come down. Things are piling up - finally. One hopes justice is served one way or another.

Don’t forget the classified documents he kept at Marlagogo..

Like the one's Biden has strewn all over his house in Delaware?

Yes I vote for him and I don’t mind he is investigated for it as well.

This is an action state grand juries across the country take on a regular routine basis.

If anything, this signals the strength of our democracy and the rule of law.

I don’t believe this to be true. I think, unfortunately, this was the reverse of democracy, i.e. give me the man, and I’ll find you the crime. It’s not surprising to me at all, given this DA has let a lot of violent criminals essentially free to hurt others again.

Love the MAGA talking points here re: the DA. But what are you going to do when the evidence shows he committed the crimes beyond a reasonable doubt? No one made up these crimes to play a game of gotcha with Trump. TWO people have been convicted of crimes related to this. Neither had as much to benefit as Trump himself.

The problem is that a decent percentage of the country (I'd guess 20%) have so thoroughly identified themselves with Trump that they're totally unable to separate him being held accountable for his crimes with a direct attack on them personally. Look at how they talk about it " they are not after Trump as much as they are after all of us" "if they can come for Trump, they will come for you." You can't reason with that.

I find that part fascinating. Like how does a politician end up being so intertwined with your own identity that you simply cannot accept any negative information about that politician, because it feels like accepting negative information about yourself? Have we had other politicians or famous people in this country (besides cult leaders) who have been able to do this to people? I know it’s not everyone who voted for and supports Trump. Plenty wil say they don’t like the guy but they still vote for him. But that percentage that sees this as an attack on them, the kind that say “we are MAGA”… just fascinating.

Twenty percent of Americans believe in unicorns, alien abductions, angels, crystals, and that the moon landing was faked. So?

You forgot to add God.

That doesn’t mean anything. DeSantis can’t stop anything. He’s just saying that to make MAGA happy. If Trump doesn’t surrender, that’ll piss off the judge. Trump’s lawyers would be dumb to allow their client not to surrender.

I read in Wapo that there are talks of him surrendering on April 4th, I guess we will see.

DP. I bet he defects for Moscow.

I have been praying for that since Jan 6 2021. What will it take to make him just go away?

Putin does not want his sorry ass in Russia.
