Poor Professor Higgins Donald Trump!
They’ve been after this good, honest, loving soul for years and he’s borne it all with grace, humility and dignity!

It's an 8 year old misdemeanor (IF the case is made) AND the Statute of Limitations has run. And Bragg had passed on charging it once before. Nothing political to see here, folks. Maybe Bragg should spend his time removing actual violent criminals off his streets, as the DA, instead of focusing resources on that dangerous and offensive...tweeter.

Hey! there is always hope - right. After seven years of trying they are down to an anonymous source, an attorney who was in prison for lying to congress and tax evasion and an eight year old case based on hearsay from him.

Point well made.

A couple of interesting pieces here on the potential charges, the challenges Bragg faces with them, and how he may go about handling them. Included in here are the statute of limitations and how this could be flipped from a misdemeanor to a felony:

(SPOILER ALERT: In NY, the statute of limitations pauses when the accused is out of state)

That is likely the only thing Trump has ever said that the liberals would not immediately assert as a lie.
He's not a very trustworthy source of information. We'll see tomorrow.

Yeah, so?

Why should we believe someone who lives with such frequency?

Hey some people have no problem believing Biden even though they acknowledge that he frequently lies and tells stories that are total fabrications, how soon some people forget the log in their own eye.

139?

You are coming at Biden with 139 because that seems like a high number?

I did not write the article, it is what it is. My point is that he lies consistently and perhaps more importantly he tells some very significant lies, one that remains in my mind is his promise not to leave any American citizens behind in Afghanistan.

Biden's lying doesn't make Trump's lying any better. The trick with Trump is trying to find a truthful statement. And he might just have made one this time. We'll see.

I would suggest that the problem with Trump often times is that he is telling the truth and some liberals simply can not handle the truth.

To avoid further consequence, I'll stick with just, I know you are incorrect.

The truth is this thread is about Donald and preparations for his possible indictment, not about President Biden or who lies the most.

Yeah, that's a nonsensical statement, and it doesn't apply to me anyway. Frankly, I do think there's a very good chance that Trump actually believes what he's saying when he spouts mistruths, so they're not technically lies, but that's not really any better. In any case, I look forward to finding out whether Trump's belief that he can drum up some big protests will match up to reality.

I would be surprised if there were any serious protests but this whole thing simply confirms his narrative that he has been treated unfairly and will no doubt result in a significant increase in his supporters. Trump is no doubt enjoying this foolishness immensely as his popularity with the voters increases.

The fact check in that article seem to indicate Biden was broadly right in 6 of 9 claims, likely gets a pass for use of hyperbole or unclear speech in the other two and was mostly wrong on one other (the al-Queda one).
