Everything that comes out of his big fat mouth is lies 🤯 Dump can never get near the White House again , He’s a child and refuses to tell the truth and does nothing good for our country, it’s all about him 🤯the big trials should be brought out now!!!! Thanks Harry
The biggest mistake in the legal proceedings had nothing to do with the letter of the law; it was not allowing a televised presentation. If not allowing a televised version was to prevent a circus atmosphere, allowing the Barnum/Bailey circus barker himself to force feed a media narrative was the absolute height of folly. And though it continued each and every day after a court proceeding, and though it was deemed by almost every pundit to be corrosive, nothing was done to prevent it. Asking how that circumstance came about will most likely be as revealing as it is painful. You have a known grifter with at least six decades of experience looking for loopholes and both the courts and media gave this one served on a platter with a side of bacon. Another 1000 meters added to the mountain the left has to climb.
He should have at least 6 months in a prison cell. Many young people wanting to be thugs due to the example of teflon don. Convicted felon needs to be another example, there are repercussions for law breakers.
What’s ridiculous and all this is all the talk about the facility that this trial occurred in and to that I would challenge anybody to go back to the court records since this building was constructed and find a criminal defendant and one other criminal defendant who complained about the air conditioning?
What about me Harry? I’m running for president, and I’m considering committing 34 crimes 🤔will i get the same velvet glove treatment from the justice system?
Trump comes before probation office soon he isn’t going behave himself by answering questions properly related 34 felony that will make the judge merchan on trump sentenceing an different rules under being fromer president that committed an felony l want to know Trump can still run as president after he charges with felony because isn’t allowed to vote because of that l feel he should be disqualified as to become president again because of these 34 felony charges if misdemeanor that different story under the rules of fromer president because are something that you as fromer president are to follow an trump hasn’t followed of them rules as fromer president he does he wants this trump is so much trouble because all lose everything that gets from the our federal government because an fromer president like his an wife pensions health care another thing such as secret service protection as convicted felony
Now the real challenge is up. Because now gloves are off. Trump will do and pull the extremes and probably the unthinkable. Because he always pushed the envelope further and further into unhinged lunacy completely lost in touch with common sense and reality. Now law enforcement and justice system have to enforce the verdict and shut down the furious reactions of mobster boss Trump. People seriously could die. Capitol police man already faced the ruthless blind retaliation hate of violence ready MAGA s. Now the got and very dangerous Phase is on.
The jury, courtroom staff and their families are being threatened every day. They must have known that this would happen, so Harry, I do think that they are heros.
The saddest thing is the Supreme Court of the United States has become the Complicit Court of the United States. Thanks Republicans for shitting all over the constitution that I respect so much.
The legal system let the doors wide open walked back out it needed to be remanded in custody awaiting sentencing he's menace to society and the citizens lives
According to Trump, he is going to be a dictator if elected, he will make it law, if that’s the case, a president can do anything, then President Biden should proclaim he is President for life and appoint his successor now before the election in November, President Biden should eliminate congress, the Supreme Court immediately according to Trump, President Biden has that power.
1. The Constitution says you have to be 35+, natural born citizen, and NOT be an insurrectionist. Trump is an insurrectionist based upon multiple court rulings. SCOTUS said he can be ON the ballot, but if we're too follow the Constitution, he can't actually BE president. 2. After being found guilty on all 34 charges, a court clerk gave Trump a "Court Order for Investigation and Report." The form directs Trump to "report immediately to the department of probation." I don't think he did that. Any consequences for him not following NY law? Again.
BUT, WHY CANT HE GO TO JAIL FOR COMMITTING CONTEMPT OF COURT ( AFTER 9 X'S MERCHAN SAID NEXT TIME ITS JAIL AND TRUMP DID A FEW MORE TIMES, IVE LOST COUNT 10 - 11 - 12 ) WITHOUT APPEAL ???????
The GOP going out of their way to defend him AGAIN, proves that they cannot be trusted with anything, let alone running the government. FFS, the guy fomented an insurrection.
We all need to stop enabling the former president. He done the crime and he needs to do the time. He is not better than any other person that has went to prison at the age of 77. The law is the law. He is still in denial. The only way he can start maybe to understand is by getting the consequences hopefully.
Sorry Harry but I disagree with you. If Trump gets sent to prison and he does not go in right away there will be hell to pay across the country as nobody NOBODY else would be allowed to not go to prison for a few years until the appeals process has fully been worn out. There will be riots and protests all over the country and the rule of law ends and so does Biden's chances of winning November!
Merchan better not give tRump only 6 months! Sentence him to Leavensworth. A whole cell block can be designated to house his stinky a**. Other felons have "died" in prison, why should von Shitzinpants be any different? Any sentence less than 5yrs would be equal to special treatment. Heck, Ross Ulbricht got 40 years for peddling drugs, tRump instigated a whole coup and still gets to run for President...TF!
I hope that he is a total asshole in that meeting and shows no respect for them and I hope that they give him a terrible report on his lack of respect for the law
