The only criminals so far without a frame up, have been Democrats. The problem lies, when they get to investigate themselves.

He buys his way out of things and hopefully now he will start paying with jail time instead.

A sketchy background is just something we've come to accept from politicians. Why are you focusing on Trump? I'm not saying he's innocent, but this tactic of holding someone accountable for bad behavior but giving everyone on your side of the political spectrum a free pass is getting wearisome. This applies to both the Left and the Right. Either vote everyone out of office because of their sketchy background or give it a rest.

Don’t say, it’s because it’s isn’t proven, because that never stopped them before.
Ask the Republicans that looked into it and found nothing.

No they aren't.

That's just a talking point idiots who don't know anything about tax returns repeat.

If there was tax evasion, the IRS would have dealt with it. Tax avoidance is something everyone does. Joe Biden set up Sub S corporations so he could avoid social security taxes on the 11 million in so called speaking fees people have paid him the last couple of years.

The article focuses on Trump, making him and his actions the topic here. The question was, "If these are not crimes, how would you view them if Trump's opponent was the one who committed them?"

It's not a hard question. Can you answer it honestly without trying to deflect away from Trump? Nothing Biden has done or can do will change one thing about Trump's actions.

People who think Trump is a criminal are people who can't think for themselves and blindly repeat the far left talking points.

Its criminal that people let y'all walk around with such a severe case of the mental illness known as TDS!!!

Again with the deflection. The article is about crimes that Trump has been involved in and paid penalties, not about anything anyone else in the known universe has done. Forbes is hardly "the Left" - They are simply reporting what has happened.

If Biden had done the things Trump did in the article, would you consider them to be crimes? Yes or no, without trying to change the subject, please. That gets really old, and it isn't effective.
