That would be like a plea deal. It's an analogy.

Thoughts and prayers is nothing but a facade for those who refuse to accept the TRUTH. No commingling of a thought process. Trumpers are running scared.

I'm not sure why you believe that. He broke the law. Going away quietly doesn't change that fact. What other criminal is allowed to "go away quietly" and have their crimes completely forgotten/forgiven?

Apropos for far too many in this thread:

The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
― George Orwell, 1984

Like Giuliani said "Truth isn't truth.", and KellyAnne with "We have alternate facts!".

With every new development, as more of this evidence comes to light - Trump apologists are getting pushed further and further onto an ever shakier limb. The pretzel logic to keep the whole fantastic structure in place gets wackier and more ridiculous with every passing day. But Trump has taught them well, they are no longer afraid to repeat even the most outrageous lies.

Yes. The thoughts and prayers were offered to someone who is having difficulty accepting the truth. Maybe you missed the few posts leading up to that one.

I don't believe that you would admit Trump's wrongdoing even if it was proven in court. You would say the court is corrupt.

That sounds a like he'd be attempting to commit obstruction of justice, something I'm confident we'll learn much more about in the coming days.

It has to do with what I had posted that you had quoted and commented on. Maybe go back and reread what it was that I'd posted.

The question is - if Trump is convicted in a court of law, are you prepared to accept that outcome? That was your statement, and I was pointing out that there will be many Trump followers that will never accept it. At least based on their fanatical behavior so far. Maybe you will follow the beat of your own drum if it happens, I was just curious.
If it's proven then I'll accept it...as I'd stated MANY times already over everything that y'all had thrown at him over the past few years. This time is no different.

Since we constantly have to prove ourselves to you, and proving oneself is rarely a two-way street with the left, then answer these questions:

IF he's proven innocent, are you prepared to accept that outcome?

IF he's proven innocent, and he later releases declassified information from the Crossfire Hurricane documents proving that some of the D's and some of those in the alphabet agencies and the media are corrupt, will you accept that?

That's what I have been asking berdee but not getting an answer so far. That was my first guess based on the thinking of many hard-core Trump supporters like the ones that post here, but who knows, maybe some people aren't completely propagandized.

ABSOLUTELY I'd accept a finding of innocence, so you'd like to think that many Trump supporters would likewise accept a conviction in a court of law.
