Agreed that the wailing and gnashing of teeth will be as voluminous as it will be constant, and there might be incidents of violence; but I don't think that's going to translate into him becoming more popular.
Well apart from the fact you have already convicted him you obviously overlook some important facts. 1. Federal prosecutors from the US Attorneys office for the Southern District of NY passed on this case in 2019. 2. The Federal Election Commission also passed on this case in 2021. 3. The potential charge of “Falsifying Business Records “ is usually a misdemeanor, the statute of limitations expired long ago. 4, The attempt by this partisan hack DA to upgrade to a felony has been questioned by many legal scholars on both side of the political spectrum. 5. This DA ran on “getting Trump” while failing to prosecute real and sometimes violent criminals. This is very obviously a partisan witch hunt and will likely backfire but those behind this cannot resist the visual of seeing Trump in cuffs. Even if convicted in this highly partisan jurisdiction this case has no chance of holding up in the appeals process, but that is of no concern to the “get Trump” crowd. Let’s see if the outrage for legal justice holds up for the investigation into Chinese money flowing into the Biden family accounts. Hmm falsifying business records or treason this is going to be very interesting to watch as it unfolds.
The bulk of the investigation had already been conducted before Bragg came into office. I think he chose one of the weakest possible charges. The financial bank fraud has already been proven against his organization. I don’t know why Bragg didn’t go with that.
It would help to understand what you are talking about if you could give concrete examples.
To be fair it was right wing Christians who did all the Witch hunting and burning. Today it's not that group doing it and no 1000s of innocent people are being killed.
Speaking for myself only, I've never been convinced he'd be going to jail. Hoping? Sure. Convinced? Hardly.
Politicians are also known for being corrupt, dishonest, and the like, but people get into their own little bubbles and act like their side is clean and tidy while the other side is evil and dirty.
"Lock her up! Lock her up!"
Trump isn't being prosecuted by NY State for "mishandling funds" but - probably, we don't yet know the exact charges - for filing false documents to cover up tax fraud and campaign mismanagement. This is the sort of thing that is commonly prosecuted in New York. Should Trump get special treatment?
Mishandling classified documents probably isn't the actual issue - obstruction of justice, lying about it and possibly theft (all the gifts given to the president that Donald felt entitled to keep) is more likely.
How did the Democratic politicians enable the Patriot Prayer thugs to beat up the BLM protesters? If they did call out for Antifa to come to particular protests ("it's going to be wild") then, sure, prosecute them.
The day ain't quite over yet, but it's looking like MAGA may have to change the names of the days of the week to make Trump's prophecy come true.
Just for your edification here is one example.
A position that just is not supported by the evidence but then what the heck everyone is entitled to their opinion, opinions are like belly buttons, everyone has one, they are all different, everyone thinks theirs is special and they are all fuzzy at best. Enjoy your free speech since Trump is a public personality you will not be held legally responsible for misstatements or defamation.
How is Trump undermining our justice system? Has he been harassing judges by marching in front of their homes and chanting slogans that threaten the judges or their families? Has he encouraged someone to kill a Supreme Court Justice? Has he attempted to assassinate the character of a Justice by encouraging false testimony about their high school activities?
Now that I can appreciate and it is much more honest than those who continue to pretend that he guilty of some crime, seems that they cannot get what they want so the lie to themselves and others.
