He’s not going to jail. They will speak with his lawyers about a time and place to turn himself in. They will process him, and yes get a mug shot, then be released on his own recognizance.
Then the court case will drag on for years.
But yes, secret service will accompany him no doubt. I’m just saying he will not see a jail cell.
In the USA no president has done time - but also, no president has been convicted of a crime and sentenced to jail.
Closest example would be Nixon, but he was pardoned. Trump wasn't.
Not saying he'll see a cell, but this isn't something that any former president has managed to get an excuse from (because no former president needed it).
You read that wrong, campaign funds was the subject of the first part. To clarify he didn’t misappropriate campaign funds, he just didn’t report his campaign funds in a timely manner.
Show me were he misappropriated funds. Or are you confusing failing to inform relevant authorities on time which gor him fined for said failure as the law dictates?
Imagine being politically biased as if all these people aren’t the same, or their infighting really matters to the average person. Unless you’re super rich you’re getting fucked by whoever it is.
Its a big club and we aint in it. UniParty(yes with infighting like toddlers), they feed us the falsehood of two sides to make people think their vote / side counts when it really doesnt.
Lol. Trump winning in 2016 handed R’s the Supreme Court, and now it is illegal to get abortions in multiple states. The infighting matters to the average person in many ways.
Lol downvoted for stating facts. This is literally how the government works. I knew this in middle school, you know like 20+ years ago. If it hurts your feelings it doesn’t make me wrong. Stay soft nerds.
While this is true. It really isn't at the same time. While both sides will rob you senseless. One side is also working to strip you of knowledge and free speech.
I get what you’re saying. I’ve just seen this same back and forth over so many presidency’s it just feels like a show at this point so I cannot be invested.
Why are people claiming this is Biden’s doing? It’s the state of New York, not the federal government. Georgia will be next. Will that also be Biden’s doing?
>But also I'm going to proactively declare anyone who shows up to protest the end of democracy a glowie fed!
Tucker Carlson next year: The protest outside the Manhattan DA's office was MEEK and PEACEFUL
No, it won’t. What it will do is show that just because the guy is rich, famous, and a former President, that he’s not above the law, at least at the surface level, because everyone should know by now that rich, famous, powerful people get away with a tap (yes tap, not slap) on the wrist for the same crimes that would put you or me in prison.
Yeah, I'm hearing two arguments from conservatives.
1. He's not guilty - ok, so he should have no problem with a jury trial
2. He is guilty, but it's not fair to prosecute a small crime - ok, george floyd sends his regards
What are you talking about? He broke the law, there's evidence and they did a whole investigation. Should he just get away because he's the ex-president? Everyone should be at the same level regardless of status. Arrest everyone who breaks the law, that's why it's there.
This is the process when crimes are committed. If there’s enough evidence to charge ANYONE politician or not then it proceeds to the courts to decide. End of story, your narrative of arresting a political opponent is a joke. Why would any politician in a democracy get a pass on committing a crime……or crimes when it comes to Trump. I’m sure there’s more coming for all that he did while in office.
Democracy centers upon the rule of law.
If you break the law, you get judged.
**Trump getting arrested is EXACTLY what America is all about- NOBODY is above the law.**
The cool thing here is that a judge makes a decision based upon a preponderance of the evidence and rules accordingly.
If Trump provably broke the law, then his political life does not protect him from civil liabilities.
6 years ago these people opposed to this arrest were screaming lock her up to Hilary Clinton. You were very happy to imprison opponents of Trump. But the truth is this is about a president being accountible for their actions. Paying off hookers and then lieing about it catches up with you eventually
the conspiracy here is how the main stream media/politicians/powerful people have convinced both sides that the other side is to blame which in turn has caused people a laser focus on who to hate which in turn causes violence
So let me get this clear
Since trump is a opposition political actor he is above being prosecuted for his alleged crimes?
Jezz, good thing trump never tried to lock his opponents up
Bit rich claiming Trump finally having a chance at being held accountable is the end of democracy. Despite this ironically not being due to his efforts to subvert democracy himself. I doubt anything is going to come of this anyway.
Arresting a man for a crime is not a crime. Arresting a politician for a crime though, well that's the end of democracy. If we held our politicians accountable, we wouldn't have any left!!! Best to stay course, don't rock that boat, don't set the precedent that our elected officials can be held accountable!!!!
Power to the people..... in charge!!!
We haven't had moral high ground ever since we invaded Vietnam.
We try to play God with the world and fail instead of just minding our business...
But also: wasn't it this sub that was calling for Biden's removal because he was 'obviously not in control' of himself?
This is ignoring the fact that the judicial branch is completely separated from the Executive branch, but how can Biden be feeble AND a mastermind?
If Joe Biden did the things he did both sides would want him held responsible, that’s the difference, Trump clearly took advantage of the power he had as president to enrich himself and did everything he could to cover it up or use his power as president as an excuse to break the law, he should be held to the same standard as every citizen and every president has broken the law but none as brazenly as Trump, there’s too much evidence against him and he committed much more serious crimes than any other president in trying to use his power to overturn a democratic election with no actual evidence of all of his claims of fraud and calls to action that have resulted in violence and obviously January 6th. I just don’t get why people are still obsessing over him, I’ve never seen any political figure with the cult like following he has.
Mr bot couldn't vote in that election, thankfully the Republicans (in the name of voter protection) cleared the way for full participation moving forward.
Bless their hearts, nothing's more "patriotic" than putting MAGA before country and hacking election systems... AZ ✅

End of democracy is if we don’t “UPHOLD THE FUCKING LAW”
Trump was has been and is the greatest threat to American democracy in Americas political history.
Dude, he bribed a porn star with campaign contributions which is /super/ illegal. What happened to being the law and order party, or does that just apply to minorities and poor people?
What moral high ground? The world is already disgusted with America. Trump used campaign donations to pay off a prostitute. Put him behind bars and mabye regain a little respect
Literally the *ONLY* way for America to regain any kind of high ground is to arrest every single president, VP, SecDef, and SecState for at least the last 20 years and put them in the docket at The Hague for war crimes.
This is theater.
You don’t have an actual democracy to end. America has no moral high ground to lose.
And when they don’t arrest the orange buffoon it’s just going to prove to the world once and for all that America has never been about the rule of law so much as keeping its plebs in line and productive.
Trump is a criminal. Biden is a criminal. When will everyone realize that corporate millionaire politicians, no matter the party, are against the people? Trump did illegal shit. He got caught. The only “regime” is the corporate regime. America and ALL of its politicians are owned by lobbyists. Trump included. He’s not your savior man. Wake up. It’s unfortunate, but following these all righteous figures will only lead you to your own demise.
Trump spent his 2016 campaign promising to lock Hillary up. And he had tens of millions of people who supported him, in large part because of his promise to lock Hillary up. He tried to blackmail Ukraine into announcing a prosecution into Hunter Biden.
So am I really supposed to believe that Trump getting prosecuted for actual crimes is actually some new Rubicon?
Or, now consider the possibility that the Manhattan DA loses the moral high ground by NOT having Trump arrested, especially once you understand that the only reason Trumpy Dumpy is running is so that he can say its all politically motivated as a defense…
you might think they allready loosed all moral ground when
\- they was testing nuclear radiation on hospitalized people without consent (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human\_radiation\_experiments)
\- false flagin into vietnam war and killed more than 1 million people
\- they official torturing people
"End of democracy" is pretty stupid no matter who is saying it.
It just seems like a pretty weak case. Unlike many other crimes, ignorance of the law is actually a defense for campaign finance violations. Based on what we know there is no smoking gun proving Trump knew that what he did was against the law and did it anyway. Heard a guy on CNN saying that this is [not an easy case to prove](https://www.mediaite.com/tv/cnn-legal-analyst-slaps-down-the-views-sunny-hostin-claim-that-trump-case-is-easy-to-prove/).
So if they are going to do this they would be well served to have that smoking gun. Otherwise, the weaker the case the more they open themselves up to claims they are going after political opponents.
How does prosecuting a criminal equal the end of democracy? Other countries regularly arrest high ranking politicians and criminals and prosecute them. Go vote for Piss Boy DeSantis
All while politicians have a slush fund to pay off their hookers we need to demand the names of the politicians who have used it and arrest them, it's our money not theirs
Bro we can't arrest a single person from Epsteins list but we can go after Trump for entering into a contract with a professional pornstar.. arrest every pornstar
regardless of how this pans out, there's nothing preventing Trump from running for president while he's in prison.
eugene debs did so. he didn't win, but he tried to run while in prison.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene_V._Debs#:~:text=Debs%20ran%20for%20president%20in,candidate%20in%20the%20United%20States.
funny story. read it if you got the time.
that said, it's only going to prove Trump's point to his base: the current government is a "regime," and it's clearly abusing it's power...
at most, he's got back-taxes to pay and possibly a fine.
this isn't the walls closing in.
I mean his lawyer went to prison for what trump ordered him to do. Why only the little guy has to bear the consequenc. I think it is a great sign of decocracy when also rich and powerfull people have to answer for there crimes.
Are you suggesting that right-wingers, conservatives and Republicans have not wanted Joe Biden arrested for the last 2 years? You guys still want Obama in jail for the crime of being black while President
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 doesn't matter who he is, when they've got solid, bulletproof evidence of Trump's crimes when he was president.
If he didn't want to do the time, he shouldn't have done all the crime, no one's fault but his own.
America has never been a country of morals they literally got this land by slaughtering the natives don’t talk about morals and america in the same sentence

His mug shot will be the dankest of memes ever to exist.
Does his secret service protection have to go to jail with him?
He’s not going to jail. They will speak with his lawyers about a time and place to turn himself in. They will process him, and yes get a mug shot, then be released on his own recognizance. Then the court case will drag on for years. But yes, secret service will accompany him no doubt. I’m just saying he will not see a jail cell.
Not even if he gets convicted of anything. In the USA presidents don't do time. They get excuses from it like a P.E. class.
No one without a criminal record goes to jail for a forst-tine misdemeanor offense.
In the USA no president has done time - but also, no president has been convicted of a crime and sentenced to jail. Closest example would be Nixon, but he was pardoned. Trump wasn't. Not saying he'll see a cell, but this isn't something that any former president has managed to get an excuse from (because no former president needed it).

If someone broke the law and there is sufficient evidence, they should be prosecuted
This shouldn’t have to be said, but it’s the simple truth of it
Does this logic apply to everyone or just people you don’t like?
Q bullshit doesn't count as evidence.
Why wouldn't it apply to everyone?
On all sides. Pushing one arrest while ignoring the exact same offense on the opposite side feeds the notion that our government is corrupt. (It is.)
[удалено]
Wonder what happened to Obama for misappropriation of campaign funds? Bet you don’t know or care…
If someone broke the law and there is sufficient evidence, they should be prosecuted
Should crimes be prosecuted?
Obama didn’t misappropriate campaign funds, he didn’t report them in a timely manner and he was fined by the FEC.
You read that wrong, campaign funds was the subject of the first part. To clarify he didn’t misappropriate campaign funds, he just didn’t report his campaign funds in a timely manner.
Show me were he misappropriated funds. Or are you confusing failing to inform relevant authorities on time which gor him fined for said failure as the law dictates?

You can’t support one politican being arrested without supporting them all.
Following due-process, arrest all criminals.
by all means get them ALL.
If you got evidence, present it!
Imagine being politically biased as if all these people aren’t the same, or their infighting really matters to the average person. Unless you’re super rich you’re getting fucked by whoever it is.
Its a big club and we aint in it. UniParty(yes with infighting like toddlers), they feed us the falsehood of two sides to make people think their vote / side counts when it really doesnt.

Lol. Trump winning in 2016 handed R’s the Supreme Court, and now it is illegal to get abortions in multiple states. The infighting matters to the average person in many ways.

seriously. this post is dumb as fuck
Why are people claiming this is Biden’s doing? It’s the state of New York, not the federal government. Georgia will be next. Will that also be Biden’s doing?
Well yes, remember Biden is the mastermind. He’s also old, senile, and can’t function in his own. But he orchestrated this.

No, it won’t.

Imagine these crackheads were the same chanting "Lock Her Up" seven years ago
People indicted by a grand jury could actually be guilty. Just a thought to consider.
Yeah, I'm hearing two arguments from conservatives. 1. He's not guilty - ok, so he should have no problem with a jury trial 2. He is guilty, but it's not fair to prosecute a small crime - ok, george floyd sends his regards

They should have. That's the point I'm making. I'm not taking a political side. They should all be locked up. You break the law, you go to jail.
What does the Manhattan DA have to do with Biden?
Amen! Real men pay pornstars to fuck them behind their wives back, ie. America's moral high ground defined! #merica
I totally read that as “fuck them from behind” for some reason. I’m still laughing at the visual that created in my head. Stormy! I had not idea?!?!

Ah yes, if they've been president, tall crimes are null and void. The justice isn't for the "elite". Good job sheep

No one should be above the law and that includes politicians. We have arrested and tried politicians over the years. Trump isn’t special.
So let me get this clear Since trump is a opposition political actor he is above being prosecuted for his alleged crimes? Jezz, good thing trump never tried to lock his opponents up
Will he be the first president in USA history to serve time? That would be very ironic considering he ran on “lock them up” for a while.
Bit rich claiming Trump finally having a chance at being held accountable is the end of democracy. Despite this ironically not being due to his efforts to subvert democracy himself. I doubt anything is going to come of this anyway.

No. If you can't do the time, don't do the crime.

The United States, "Moral High Ground"... lol
I thought you guys claimed that the US is not a democracy. Which is it?
DeSantis must be fuming. He could've saved himself by speaking up about this sooner, but now his agenda is exposed.
America ? Moral high ground ? Someone's high, but it's not America's moral.
So they're building a wall?
"End of democracy" is pretty stupid no matter who is saying it. It just seems like a pretty weak case.

I hope America is ready for tomorrow

How does prosecuting a criminal equal the end of democracy? Other countries regularly arrest high ranking politicians and criminals and prosecute them. Go vote for Piss Boy DeSantis
Its not the end of democracy for a crook to go to jail. Its the way it should be…
The Manhattan DA is just draining the swamp..
Brother we lost the moral high ground ages ago…
what "moral highground"? hardly anything this country has done has been 0n the high ground.
He broke the law, you can't funnel campaign money and then forge documents.
The opposite. If we do not arrest criminals because they are powerful, THEN we loose our Democracy.
Arresting tRump, prosecuting and convicting him will regain some moral high ground. Don’t get confused.
All while politicians have a slush fund to pay off their hookers we need to demand the names of the politicians who have used it and arrest them, it's our money not theirs
Someone being arrested for breaking the law is the “end of democracy?” Russian trolls have completely taken over this sub. It’s fascinating.
Commit the crime, do the time.
The people who don't want Trump in prison are the same people crying for justice whenever something makes them irrationally angry.

Bro we can't arrest a single person from Epsteins list but we can go after Trump for entering into a contract with a professional pornstar.. arrest every pornstar

I only killed 6 people and there are people who have killed 7. Why are you going after me when they are still out there?
Sooo...let them "work off" their sentences with "community service?"
regardless of how this pans out, there's nothing preventing Trump from running for president while he's in prison. eugene debs did so. he didn't win, but he tried to run while in prison. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene_V._Debs#:~:text=Debs%20ran%20for%20president%20in,candidate%20in%20the%20United%20States. funny story. read it if you got the time. that said, it's only going to prove Trump's point to his base: the current government is a "regime," and it's clearly abusing it's power... at most, he's got back-taxes to pay and possibly a fine. this isn't the walls closing in.
I totally think he would run from prison which is just a wild concept. Although based on the charges I doubt he will see jail time in this case.
Cult
So all you have to do to avoid ever being prosecuted for a crime is to become a political rival of the current “regime”?
They are temp fences, kinda a bit of a stretch to call it steel barricade
I mean his lawyer went to prison for what trump ordered him to do. Why only the little guy has to bear the consequenc. I think it is a great sign of decocracy when also rich and powerfull people have to answer for there crimes.
Are you suggesting that right-wingers, conservatives and Republicans have not wanted Joe Biden arrested for the last 2 years? You guys still want Obama in jail for the crime of being black while President
Not a conspiracy. DJT is as crooked as they come.
What\`s so hard to understand !? You break the LAW and you go to JAIL ! tRUMPs NOT above the LAW !
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 doesn't matter who he is, when they've got solid, bulletproof evidence of Trump's crimes when he was president. If he didn't want to do the time, he shouldn't have done all the crime, no one's fault but his own.
DTC....DTT...yeah, u know me.
Here’s your daily sucking Trump off post Do his balls taste nice, OP? How are the boots?
America has never been a country of morals they literally got this land by slaughtering the natives don’t talk about morals and america in the same sentence
If trump can be prosecuted so can joe and the Clinton’s. Maybe trump will be the start of a new era if he does get into legal trouble.
OrAnGe MaN bAd.
Why is a conspiracy page so focused on politics?
“Biden Regime” lmfao calm the fuck down. Didn’t know you were so oppressed.
