Donald Trump has been committing crimes his entire adult life and getting away with it. He should not be able to hide behind a Presidency.
The precedent is "no one is above the law". It's a good one.
Now what you are insinuating, is that the GOP will make up crimes to prosecute Dems with. This would not surprise me. They have been making up crimes and prosecuting Dems with them in the court of public opinion for all of my lifetime.
GOP have always played dirty.

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?
Do you understand that Michael Cohen and Allen Weisselberg are, or have been, in jail because of this crime? The same one that there is an "Individual 1" who, as described in the previous indictments and sentencing documents are obviously Trump? I mean, if Trump's DOJ put Cohen behind bars for this, then why should Trump face court and possible jail as well?
Should Trump have to prove his innocence? Yes or no

Do you understand that Cohen went to prison for other crimes? Do some research.
He pleaded guilty to other crimes that probably weren't really crimes at all. They attached those "crimes" in order to go after Trump down the road.
Interesting that the DOJ passed on the "crimes" that Bragg is evidently pursuing. If indeed, these are the "crimes" in the indictment, I believe even judges in deep blue NYC will see that this is a political prosecution and throw out the charges. And, if they don't, it sure will be fun to see (or hear about) Michael Cohen as a witness. The convicted liar.

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.

Should Trump have to prove his innocence? Yes or no
Given ALL the corruption and lying we've seen from him - yes, he should have to prove his innocence to the public
In a court of law, the prosecution must prove his guilt
Do you not get that distinction?
Pelosi evidently believes he has to prove his innocence in a court of law. Not surprising, really. We all knew she has difficulty grasping legal issues.
