The crime of supporting the United States and the American Citizen and doing what is best for the country? That crime? Well, we are certainly being punished for it now, aren't we?

Well sure, but "most likely" doesn't mean there is actually any illegality there. Hence, nothing to "get away with".

Show me compelling evidence that something illegal happened and then we can talk about "getting away with it".

There are no loopholes, only LEGAL elements of the U.S. Tax Code that most businesses use. But, I know you know that.

Biden admits to committing quid pro quo with the Ukraine when he was VP while Trump is impeached because the Dems thought he was thinking about it..?



Trump is the victim here.
Excellant post! 100% correct.

Stupid, lazy premise for a thread, and it seems to just be you wanting attention. Normally, I'd ignore these but I'll throw in a consistency check for ya.

Can you show me where you've advocated for Hunter Biden to be arrested and prosecuted for the felony crime of lying on BATFE form 4473, or will you support him being arrested for that crime, right here and now?

I'd like to know if you truly support the idea of nobody being above the law.

Trump is definitely guilty of some kind of financial crimes...that said if he doesn't get prosecuted, I will just move on w/ life...as there is nothing I can do about it.

Proof to that statement, or just feelings?

Imagine for a moment that Bill and Hillary Clinton broke a bunch of laws and got away with it Scott free?

You don't have to imagine. It actually happened.

Whatever crimes you believe Trump is guilty of, we don't know for a fact that he broke the law. If there are errors on his taxes, then it'll be negotiated and fixed. That kind of crap happens on the time. But it is not at all clear that he's guilty of even that. We spent years waiting for Mueller to conduct the most expensive investigation in US history and he found Jack squat on Trump. Now we're going back to that well again. What will you do if they once again find nothing?

But we know for a fact that Bill committed perjury and Hillary criminally mishandled classified data. There are people sitting in prison for doing exactly the same things the Clintons did. But I'm actually okay with them walking away in spite of their guilt because actually pursuing justice would be incredibly divisive and destructive and probably destroys the United States as we know it. So if it turns out that Trump is guilty of some silly trivial thing, I don't have a problem with "him getting way with it."

The Bidens and the Clintons have gotten away with crimes, so why is Trump any different?
