It’s been 5+ years, but certainly continue with the goosechase. It’s just taxpayers wasted time and money.

Lol. Nobody said anything about a cutoff, just that it’s been 15+ months since 1/6 and still nothing to show for it.

So face it, Trump had nothing to do with it and he's never EVER going to jail, and like it or not, it's looking like he's going to make a big come back.
Really? I missed that.

Beginning in 2016, before the nomination, Trump made very clear his followers would become violent if/ if not Fill in the Blank.

Referring to one’s base as followers is creepy cult talk. Trump continuously fired up a faction of his base throughout 2016- 1/6/2021.

We know, with certainty, many who travelled to DC for the big event , fancied themselves to be a part of a violent revolution and Trump’s speech incited many to take matters into their own hands, while Trump conveniently retreated to the WH.

In the end, each person who engaged, was responsible for their own actions.

Except there’s zero proof that because Trump had anything to do with 1/6, but you certainly have a right to your opinion on how you interpret what he said.

You are correct that each person that engaged was responsible for their own actions…but considering there’s zero proof, the excuse that the person used isn’t going to hold up, hence the judge didn’t see it their way.

Are you speaking about when blm antifa would beat Trump supporters without his supporters fighting back?
I don't recall Hillary, or any of the other dems, calling blm antifa off.

If course the guy is a nutter....but the optics of a Trump supporter blaming Trump for his actions on that day supports the narrative some have that Trump played an integral part in encouraging the lawlessness on that day.

Yep. Dems allowing their vicious pets to run hog wild unchecked is how we ended up with the proud boys and patriot prayer.

No. Work on reading comprehension.

1. There was much testimony about Trump at trial.
2. Impartiality has to do with the defendant; not some uncharged co-conspirator.
3. The jury had been discharged by the time the judge made his statement about Trump.

Any appeal would fail.

The defense was predicated on their allegation that Trump was bad. So they could appeal and say the judge was prejudiced against Trump? Not likely.

You seen any evidence the judge was biased against the defendant?

No, you're ignoring the signed confessions of two leaders of Trump supporters as to what they did and did not do.
