I’m really really trying to find some logic in this but basically if dismissed it’s stating that anyone who has ever been president is immune from anything they do at any point of time in their life?
Next, get refunds on all the tax you paid in your life and any rulling against you, since this is somehow how it works now.
Seriously. He wasn't president when he committed these crimes and he wasn't president when he was convicted of these crimes. There should be no question here.
Well he doesn't want to be tried for treason, so he had better make it all disappear. I wish to fucking god I could put /s and mean it.. we're never seeing justice in America.
I think the general feeling now is very similar to how medieval serfs must've felt about their Lords. Totally disconnected from everyone else in their castle towers.
People need to think less like medieval serfs, and more like 18th century Frenchmen.
we’re never seeing justice in America.
Just try jaywalking while black, buddy.
Like I said, we'll never see justice in America.
He can’t make this one disappear. The President can’t pardon state charges. This is completely up to Judge Merchan.
If he does the right thing, how long will it take for Trump to order that Merchan be arrested?
It wouldn’t change the sentence.
I wonder how long the judge will maintain his sanity after disappearing into solitary as an "enemy of the state", and whether this will give him any comfort as he is beaten and waterboarded for funsies.
The problem is that if he does not scrap it, he knows his life will be in danger, if not just terrorized by MAGA supporters. I really hope he does not scrap it, as it will set up a new precedent for Trump crimes.
"or even dismiss the charges altogether."
I'm going with that one. The only justice in America is injustice.
