    I think people already knew this would be used as the cult's new battle cry but good for you to find an article saying the same thing that has already been said. You all are reminding me of a pouting child trying to use reverse psychology after being told they will not be going somewhere.

    So far taking legal actions against Trump had worked out better than hopped for.

    Some of crazier more dangerous are already exposing themselves.

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2022/08/09/trump-violence-threats-fbi-search/

    Let's hold people accountable and if anyone reacts unlawfully or violently, let's hold them accountable as well.

    This is a fantastic start to cleaning some house. I would hope there is no actual violence, but if there is, the positive will be that we can remove the threats.

    Also, for all of the law abiding citizens that trust in the rule of law and our democracy, it encourages them to have faith and support the system. The alternative is a system where the powerful are not held accountable but the rest of us are. It also shows how to get away and fix the mistakes from the last coup so the next one has a better chance to work.

    You know for someone who claims you don’t like Trump and you don’t want to defend him you sure spend a lot of time doing so

    The idea is to confuse and distort and hope it is enough to get the benefit of the doubt from those that want to give you the benefit of the doubt.

    The comments by Senator Lee were completely over the top in that way.

    Credit to you for being consistent. You said this when H. Clinton got in trouble and you are saying the same thing about Trump.

    These people in office are soft and live in a bubble. Private servers? Leaving classified documents in a public resort that didn’t even have a padlock on it?

    This stuff isn’t complicated

    Yep. A sad sight and a tarnish on the United States but also framed to help Trump appear more popular.

    This is the most concrete evidence that the rule of law is still working.

    We don't know what was taken. We don't know if Trump is guilty, but we do know what the evidence pointed towards.

    Mr. Hypocrite's other past statements...

    "You see the mob takes the Fifth," he said during one rally in Iowa. "If you're innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?"

    Oh, and remember what he said about Hillary?

    During his hour long remarks, the GOP front-runner said that if a Republican “did what she did with the email, they would be in jail 12 months ago.”
    "I mean honestly, she shouldn’t be allowed to run. no she shouldn’t be,” said Trump. “I don’t think the Democrats are going to stop her from running, because the system is inherently unfair. It’s a very unfair system.”

    I'm pretty patient but I don't got all day. Has Trump told us what was in the warrant?
