I know it's a very small sample of Americans, but that's still non zero and it genuinely pains me hearing people talking this stuff in real life. I think it just hits a lot harder for me working in health care seeing people dying and with their last breaths they are still hootin and hollerin for trump. To be filled with so much hate. The families torn apart. It makes me sad.

So if the judge accepts a gag order and he invariably violates the same day, will they be crazy enough to issue contempt of court? An entire judicial system cowed by the dumbest clown that is the perpetual narcissist victim, yet they are too afraid to do anything about it because of the years of evidence that everything he says is liable for incitement at any time.

Ahh you say this, but little do you know that executive privilege superscedes attorney client privilege anyway! In fact anything the president discusses with another person is qualified immunity via executive client privilege.

I'm pretty confident being convicted would be more beneficial for him than acquittal, as it would really ratchet up that persecution complex and need to drain the swamp! I'm personally really excited to see the motion to dismiss on the grounds of ELECTION INTERFERENCE! because it is absolutely going to be a real motion filed in a federal united States of America court on behalf of Donald J Trump.

Reading the Maine decision and I'm pretty loving surprised he actually had the audacity to file a motion for the (oops not a judge) to recuse themselves for bias. I can only hope they've reached the limit of his ridiculous and dangerous antics, making veiled mob boss threats and constantly discrediting the system of law with accusations of corruption and bias.

Trump will just argue its impossible to prepare a defense of such a monumental constitutional question case and have it done by the general election in November. How it continues from there depends on if he wins or the guy currently doing everything he can to be the most unelectable incumbent in human history wins. Either way, I wouldn't expect any profiles in courage to happen.

The rules lawyering with state/police brutality when it comes to bobbit is ridiculous. It is a right wing/anarchist whataboutism. Someone jumping through a broken door window while you are covering the escape of congressional members who were literally 30 feet down the hall in plain view, after numerous warnings and threats for minutes as they hacked down the door? Yeah you better expect you're getting perforated, no questions asked. You can't violently force your way into a military base and expect the MPs to come out and politely pepper spray you. There's plenty to discuss regarding to ACAB, but trying to argue this very specific scenario is bad faith and the only acceptable genuine explanation is to say she should not have been shot because the concept of the state and laws should not exist.

Throughout his entire presidency it was extremely obvious when it was him tweeting or someone else. The change in diction and verbiage is jarring.

A motion for double jeopardy because you were impeached by congress? Just need to hang on until after the election (going to be very easy to do this with delay tactics, his entire business empire was built on dragging out court cases for decades) when he declares martian law and God president immunity and it all goes away because who's gonna stop him? So far we've had nothing but countless profiles of no courage in Washington that have allowed this fucker to fester for 8 years.

Maybe if you all partook in the best CCCC thread on the forum (trimp thread) you'd already have known Melania has hated his guts for years, and the entire presidency was really a master class by the two in managing to pull off the staying together for the publicity as loving president and first Lady. I think the word that best described it was effortless. You hardly even knew Melania existed. Why, there she is right now, looking down at us from that window.

Raenir Salazar posted:I don't think so no? Lots of things happened, a lot of people got arrested. A lot of processes that had gaps that resulted in the scheme got revised to make it less likely. When Dems had the house they did investigations and made referrals to the DOJ, what are you saying in the context of the Trump legal thread that Dems should have done more that would've been legal for them to do? For starters, they should not have waited a month to start the impeachment of a president that attempted a self coup, followed up by declining to present any evidence or witnesses during this impeachment because they wanted to go home for their valentine week off.

selec posted:I would argue that Trump maybe has a more realistic understanding of what his relationship with the legal system is and in what ways it does and does not apply to him than many of the pundits commenting on the case does. He has a better understanding of class politics than many leftists do. He’s right to feel safe posting that, is what I’m saying, based on his class position and the entire history of his life. In fact, posting that might be an essential, important part of maintaining his class position. He understands the rich and powerful are above the law in america. Always has.

I thought we were supposed to be a country of law and order, doesn't seem like law and order when you let a cult leader direct his hordes to attack every court he goes to for all his crimes. But I guess when the courts are all very unserious about actually doing anything, what can you expect.

He also just walked out from fraud case in the middle of closing arguments (?) To make some tweets about the judge's clerk again. I don't remember the exact scenario, but he's definitely a huge liability to his own case whenever he's actually there in court.

It clearly isn't a threat to democracy since that's what ~40% of Americans want. I would say that the rule of law has been obliterated by the cowardly executive and judicial branches by using the softest gloves possible to allow trump to run circles around all of these indictments when he should have been immediately locked up for sedition and incitement Jan 6 or their second chance with the classified documents when he is a blatantly obvious national security risk.

I never do jury duty because my boss just writes signs a boiler plate if it pleases the court, please excuse asproigerosis from jury as it creates an undue burden to the hospital and the critical task of health care for the people of the state thank you. Only time I served on a jury was right after graduation when I was unemployed and the case got thrown out by the judge for lack of evidence. Heroin dealer that would bring kids along, kids took the heat for ownership of the drugs and he'd pay the family thank you money while the kids did the couple years in juvenile then records expunged when they hit 18. Judge was pissed the state brought such a weak case on a well known dealer.

I think it'd be a great idea to keep jury selection going for a couple more weeks if it means he just sits there all day as the judge reads social media posts dunking on him the whole time.
