It’s a good thing he won’t go to trial until Biden is president, because Trump actually, really would pardon him.
If trump accepts a pardon, it implies guilt. He can then be made to testify to those matters should they arise in other charges. He won’t have the office of the presidency to protect him anymore.
is that how it works though? Wasn’t Nixon pardoned before any sort of charges were even officially brought against him? If Rittenhouse is already arrested, couldn’t Trump just pardon him for anything he did/may have done pertaining to the events?
The Trumpers are losing their minds. If this actually happens I will laugh my ass off. https://www.newsweek.com/georgia-trump-supporters-destroy-gop-boycott-senate-runoffs-1549245
It’s funny just how dumb they are. What’s not funny is what they are actually wanting to see happen. And that is a by-force acquisition of power to keep Trump in office no matter what. What has happened to the state of our democracy over the last four years might not be repairable. The republicans right now are hedging their bets. If this overthrow of democracy actually works, they get to stay in power. If it fails, us libtards were just wetting our pants over nothing and there was no chance of the election getting overturned. It was just Trump being Trump. If the GOP members of Congress had a single vertebral body among all of them, this whole charade could be over already.
The implication here is that they want things to go back to how they were before Trump became political napalm. They don't. I'm convinced more than ever that Republican members of Congress will do or say anything to stay in charge. No matter how it looks or sounds. They don't have any shame anymore because all they have to say is "Virtue signal! Liberal tears!" and their misinformed constituents will keep voting for them. I'd be willing to bet that Mitch McConnell could be photographed with his dick up the ass of Ivanka Trump and literally nothing would happen to him, politically speaking. I mean, Evangelicals don't give a shit about Trump paying a porn star hush money, so long as he's making sure trans people can't serve in the military or use a public bathroom.
That is where it ends for him. A federal judge will not piss on your constitution, full stop. And while Trump supporters whine about democrat judges, this judge here is a Republican nominated by Toomey. And he’s going to follow the law to a T, because that’s what he does. Giuliani going into his final years a shaking, disgraced pile of senile lying dogshit is as happy as an ending gets. Put a toilet seat over his grave.
No, I’m sure he’s not done yet, there will be appeals and new lawsuits and who knows what he’s trying behind the scenes. In what I hope is unrelated news, 2 B-52 bombers took a little trip from North Dakota to the Middle East and back.
He might not be done overall. But this particular case was just so embarrassing and meritless. The others are too. But this was a particularly atrocious showing. I’d bet money that it doesn’t even get a hearing on appeal.
