I’m beginning to think that is the strategy and evidently you haven’t seen his poll numbers among Republicans.
The party is Donald's now. His ardent faithful make up a large portion of the base. I should have differentiated them from voters who tend to vote Republican, but don't party identify.
I don’t think he can win the general election and I don’t want him nominated. I wish your people would stop helping him.
I don't know who "my people" are supposed to be, but the last time I checked Donald announced his candidacy and Donald was the one who appears to have committed the crimes of which he's accused. Don't even try and blame anyone else.
The data. His lawyers have stated in the letters they sent that they aren't acknowledging that the supposed laptop exists and was dropped off with John Isaac, just that he accessed and illegally distributed said data from a hard drive.

It's always been about the data found on a hard drive belonging to Hunter Biden. Some people laughingly have been trying to make a PC and its hard drive two completely separate things.

Obviously more people are seeing that this isn't about any particular law Trump has broken, it is about getting Trump. The leaders of the left see Trump as a huge threat to the established government corruption and their quest for control. Joe Biden's words characterized Trump and MAGA Republicans as being extremists and a threat to democracy.

There's a lot of conspiracy going on:

18 USC 371
18 USC 1512(k)
18 USC 2384
As I recall most of the riotors just put on a demonstration and then went home. Most of them didn't engage in any kind of battle, and weren't trying to establish themselves as the new legislative branch of the US government. They didn't actually try to usurp the position of US politicians.

Check the source of the headline.

In review, the Washington Examiner format and content have been compared to The Hill, albeit with a right-leaning tilt. They generally report political news as well as local Washington DC news stories. The Washington Examiner frequently utilizes loaded wording in sensationalized headlines like Trump’s manic Monday amid the Kavanaugh storm. While the headlines may be sensational, the articles’ content is written with less bias and tend to be adequately sourced to credible media outlets.

Overall, we rate the Washington Examiner Right Biased based on editorial positions that almost exclusively favor the right and Mixed for factual reporting due to several failed fact checks.

Okay. How about CBS? Hunter Biden sues computer repairman for invasion of privacy over handling of laptop Or New York Magazine? Hunter Biden Sues Computer Repairman Who Leaked His Laptop

Oh my Trump indicted! He's guilty, string him up. Throw the bum in jail. Oh wait, there hasn't actually been a trial yet? No actual conviction?

Well, string him up anyway! Toss him in the hoosegow and throw away the key anyway. He's guilty of something I just know it!

You asked what the lawsuit was about, not what words appear in a headline. The lawsuit is about Hunter Biden's personal data [including nudes]. From a link within your link:

Abbe Lowell, an attorney for Hunter Biden, said in a statement to CBS News that the letters "do not confirm Mac Isaac's or others' versions of a so-called laptop."

"They address their conduct of seeking, manipulating and disseminating what they allege to be Mr. Biden's personal data, wherever they claim to have gotten it," Lowell said.

Now hold on there. Let's get our ducks in a row. We won't even know what the charges are until the arraignment tomorrow. Then there's the trial. Let's just reserve judgment.

What it did was stop the legal objections to the election that were being made.
What they accomplished and what they were trying to accomplish are two very different things.

Democratic Senator Jerry Nadler - no friend of Trump nor the Russians authorized it's entry into the Congressional Record.

That's even better than a photo -


House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler initially rebuffed Gaetz's request but ultimately capitulated after the Florida congressman pressed further and claimed he had a “consultation with majority staff.”​
How was the laptop entered into the Congressional Record? In concrete terms, what does that even mean?

I'm not you guys. I read the Wikipedia article you posted, and it read like a conspiracy theory. I bet that book made a lot of sales.
It reads like a conspiracy theory because it was an actual conspiracy to keep Trump in power - but it failed.

Yes, you are right, which is why most the demonstrators were not arrested or charged.

From my 10 year old grand son

~ Huh? don't they know that a lap top has a hard drive where all the information is saved?

That is about as concrete as you can get.
