He’s been indicted for actions he took as a private citizen - not a president and not a former president. Biden’s DOJ is not involved at all. A grand jury in the state of New York decided to indict based on the evidence before them.

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.


Remember the pee tapes (Lordy there are tapes)? Please produce. Remember the Steele dossier that even Steele himself was just barroom talk?

Pelosi said Trump has to prove his innocence. Agree?

Then he will be extradited (and no, DeSantis has no discretion here and plays no real role) and the Marshals will drag him out in handcuffs.

Can you explain the DeSantis angle a bit more? What he said was really worrying.

How far would they have to go?


We may see that question raised with regard to Congressmen who stood outside the Capital and incited violence/ sedition on 1/6.

Re: the person up thread asking if Trump would be arrested. Answer: it’s his choice. He will be given the option to turn himself in and avoid being arrested at Maralago and dragged out in handcuffs. If her refuses to surrender, arrest it is.

Once they have him at the Courthouse (either under his own steam or with the assistance of handcuff and marshals), the finger print, mug shot, appearance before judge to set bail is exactly the same.

Except: my opinion is that if Trump makes them arrest him, which will involve a delay of a few days to extradite him ( which will happen), the Judge is more likely to tell him he can’t leave the state of NY as a condition of release, so we don’t go through an extradition every time there is a hearing.

I hope there is a gag order. Trump can sit there and STFU. They will also require him to surrender his passport. Although he has the secret service there 24/7, so he’s not much of a flight risk.

Anyway, arrest is the shorthand way to say that he makes the Marshals go to FL and drag him in, rather than self surrender.

Trumpworld is so insane that the stock price of DWAC (the Truth Social SPAC merger partner) went up about 12% in aftermarket trading yesterday, following news of the indictment. Somehow these people are convinced that this is good news for Trump and his ventures.

Where's that civil war we were promised if Trump got indicted?



Stop making dumb threats that you don't intend to follow through on.
Especially not in defense of corrupt criminals like Trump.
