    jeez. Is there no depth of depravity that you condemn when committed by a Republican? Don't bother to answer, it was a rhetorical question to which I already know the answer.

    They don't try and defend his actions any more. They've moved on to wanting everyone to ignore his actions.

    = Dems pioneering American politics into waters heretofore uncharted to wit: using the criminal justice system to shut down political opposition.

    This will leave a scar.

    ...and take note: that scalpel cuts both ways.

    Just remember--,yall applauded, when your team went *there*.

    Ain't no putting that horse back in the barn.

    It would be nice to think Republicans also oppose felons as the head of state. But alas.

    That was his secondary point, which isn't disproven by a bunch of pix of Bruce Wayne rubbing elbows with insiders.

    Though I suppose it does make him seem rather like so many *insiders*...at least when he was on the blue team. Dude was in like Flynn...

    ...until he went to "the dark side!"

    We especially oppose bought and paid for traitors like corrupt China Joe... it's the unilateral application and weaponization of the criminal justice system that is...unsettling.

    I wonder if this perspective applies to the run of the mill criminal defendant. "That guy must have been charged with robbery ten times because law enforcement is out to get him!"

    You got some funnies from the usual domestic enemies, but your post is 100% accurate. America is under siege by fascists, people who swore an oath to uphold the Constitution and protect the country from our enemies foreign and domestic, then marched out and spit on their oath in order to further their personal ambition.

    Totally disgusting people.

    No, but it certainly applies when DAs are campaigning on the novelty of prosecuting Trump.

    That looks political to anybody who is being honest with themselves.

    Ah. So the criminal legal system is fair, unless it goes after Trump. Then, it's a conspiracy.

    No, when they say they want to do something, then they do it... believe them. I don't think that's much of a leap at all.

    At least honestly compare him to Joe Biden. That would be a start.

    It's progress from seeing red the second you hear or read "Trump."

    That's about the most BS assertion I've seen on TH in years and just goes to show the laughable disingenuous lengths to which some people will go. TRUMP WAS CONTESTING THE ELECTION WEEKS BEFOREHAND! He knew he had a bunch of sheep without principles who would blindly pick up the torch if he lost. And here you are, several years later, still blindly carrying it.

    So you agree with what I said. They are conspiring against Trump and targeting him. But the criminal legal system is fair when others are charged with crimes. That's your claim, right?

    Okay, here's my honest comparison. Donald Trump tried (and is still trying) to overthrow our democracy. Joe Biden didn't. I really don't give a shit about anything else.
