Lol. Because Trump sure hurt a lot of feelings. He should’ve upgraded the free phones and he’d have been a hero.

It’s as funny as the 4+ year witch-hunt that turned up nothing and he became the 2-0 impeachment champion. Just think of how much free stuff Socialist Joe could’ve given away with the wasted $40+m.

Actually, it is. It means he had nothing incriminating to say.

There is going to be hell to pay and of course retribution.

I already do not like how ugly and partisan the SCOTUS nominations have gotten, including the freezing out of Obama's appointee and the treatment of Kavanaugh.

This is bad folks. Really bad.
Not really. The GOP if they believed he was going to prison? They would finally have the spine to turn on him. Because if he was in prison he really would be limited in his ability to harm them.

Not in this case.

And he's also a convicted liar during sworn Congressional testimony, so what makes you think he wouldn't lie again to a NY Grand Jury just to get back at Trump...?? The DA had better keep that lie detector machine close by.

So heres the thing. How much does Obama matter to the Democratic party? I mean they like him and all, but...hes not that involved. Pretty sure he has indicated his wife has made it pretty clear that is not viable if nothing else.

Trump? Still trying to be the king maker, and the GOP reps are still in fear of him.

honestly? If Trump was more like past presidents, and didnt keep trying to tear the country apart I would be happy to evict him from my concerns. Alas he is still a factor in the political landscape. And this is all about politics and other controversies. Trump qualifies under both. I wish he didnt.

So the guy does business for decades and decades...runs for office and what a coincidence! Investigations!



https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...-trump-n946706

I never voted for Trump, voted for Biden this year, voted for my Dem rep.

Any of you want to defend just wide ranging investigations looking for whatever? Seems pretty fascist to me.
Read my posts. I am all for Trump being punished only if he is guilty. I am pretty clear about that hopefully.

And hardly wide ranging. This was literally the result of his initial crime with stormy daniels. Honestly it is a accounting crime that trump should have just paid off correctly, or paid a fine to make it go away. Instead?

LOL. his lawyer lied to congress, ended up catching a felony and doing time for committing a felony at trumps direction-and then straight up told congress how Trump committed tax and business fraud.

Once you keep finding crimes.....why do you believe they should stop pulling on the string? Because this is how it happens to folks. One thing leads to another. The only thing we've seen for 4 years his him obstructing that investigation.

This is not harassment and persecution. This is an example of the justice system doing precisely what it is supposed to be doing. Since Michael Cohen was called back to discuss the matter with the Grand Jury after they received the Former Guy's tax returns, it more than likely means there is something they found there that they want to clarify. Cohen, as attorney and fixer, would know the details of an assortment of situations.
Maybe, still smells of politics. Grand Juries in New York? As if that somehow makes them more ethical. If Trump is dirty I hope they burn him. That said I think that very few politicians in office could stand up to the scrutiny Trump was exposed to. I welcome it as long as it is done to all of them.

OP and others who think Trump is going to be arrested... Wake up!!! It’s not going to happen!!

Just like the Clintons will never be arrested for the “sheet” both of them did in and out of office.
