Summary
Prosecutors in Trump’s case involving 34 felony counts of falsifying business records tied to hush money payments have proposed delaying sentencing until after his presidency, citing the unique legal challenges posed by his election.
Trump’s lawyers argue the case should be dismissed based on a Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity, but prosecutors assert that the trial evidence remains strong.
This case marks the first criminal conviction of a former U.S. president and has sparked intense legal and political controversy.
It is a lovely quashing of dissent of fascism that we’re seeing. Make no mistake, they will go for the throat in January. But this? This is embarrassing and a dereliction of oath and accountability. This should have been done in 2021 instead of making this wet fart of a political statement in the year of an election.
This whole ordeal feels like a massive miscalculation from the Democrats. They slow-played Trump’s prosecutions so that they could convict him after he secured the nomination. He should have been charged with everything they had in 2021.
Give them an inch, they’ll take a foot.
Give them a foot, they’ll take the shoe.
I hope the asteroid comes soon.
Just destroy any trust we have in Justice. That certainly will end well.
Even if Trump doesn’t abuse his power to escape this, he will die of old age before 4 years are up.
One can hope.
The prosecutors in every single one of the MANY cases against him fucked up royally every step of the way. How can so many people make so many mistakes? I mean, even though they were up against judges who were actively trying to fuck them, they should have ended these cases a year ago.
… and that’s that. No real consequences for dictators. USA! USA! Kings are okay if they’re our kings, I guess.
