Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

Finally. It better stick too. Piece of shit need to learn he can't break the law without consequences.

7 counts. Guess he'll have to fundraise some more from his braindead supporters.

Now just need GA to complete the hat trick.

Well they get poorer and are unable to donate as much in the future.
But by then GOP probably done a 180 on welfare in order to provide for the GOP die hards to donate
Mmm what a futuristic comedy block buster that would make kek.

Apparently the emails have already gone out. Which is great.

That's small-donor money that will go to his slush fund instead of going to political campaigns come primary/general season.

I hope nobody donates to him by skipping meals and going hungry, like Republican Martha McSally asked of her supporters not too long ago. Though if they do and they suffer...oh well, purely their fault.

There's a snippet on the NYT article that says a fundraiser e-mail went out at 7:45p EST -- which was just shortly after the indictment was announced I guess.

Needed some good news today. If it wasn't so early over here and me just getting to work I'd open something.

Oh I wasn't being facetious in the least. This is always pretty much the FIRST thing that happens every time he gets his dumb, fat ass in trouble. It's practically a reflex. I guess GOP voters just love supporting convicted sex offenders. Right, Gerard Deparduh?

EDIT: Prepare your *Homer disappearing into a hedge* memes for all the times members of the GOP are asked to comment in the coming week. I'd say there should be a drinking game for "Oh I haven't read/heard/seen anything about this yet so I can't comment" responses but I don't advocate alcohol poisoning.

The seven counts against the former president include conspiracy to obstruct, willful retention of documents and false statements, according to people familiar with the indictment.

I mean Pat Robinson eating shit was already a pretty good day.

And just like that Trump boards his plane for Moscow and then…?

Honestly he can run for President from prison can he run for President as a fugitive?

It's highly unlikely that Trump would go to jail also there's nothing barring you from running for president from jail as far as I know.

The Espionage Act is no joke, and Trump is likely to actually be convicted.

Whether or not he goes to jail is another matter completely I'd argue. Heck he should be arrested right now.

[Breccia]

From CNN's scrolling news feed:

Donald Trump's attorney Jim Trusty confirmed Thursday night that the former president has been charged with seven counts – and revealed that the charges “break out from an Espionage Act charge.”

"It does have some language in it that suggests what the seven charges would be. Not 100% clear that all of those are separate charges, but they basically break out from an Espionage Act charge," he told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins.

Trusty called the espionage charge “ludicrous,” and added that there are also “several obstruction-based-type charges and then false statement charges.”

He said his team did not get a copy of the indictment but instead received a summons via email. Trusty refused to reveal when his team received the initial letter from the Justice Department that listed Trump as a target of their investigation.

He confirmed that Trump will appear in court Tuesday but would not say which attorneys will be present with Trump.

Yep, that bolded is our good buddy Trusty trying to handwave obstruction of justice and lying to the feds.

Infracted.

Every accusation is an admission. It's still hilarious.

When Trump promised, during the presidential debates, to have Clinton investigated, in public, did you applaud like his supporters in the audience did?

Even if the answer is "no" the fact that Trump said he would do that, and his supporters applauded, in pubilc, means Trump has admitted, in public, that what's happening right now is okay.

At best, you can say what Trump said was wrong, too, but it still doesn't defend Trump.

Or, I can imply from your avatar that you're another Trump supporter and, based on this post I'm quoting, a hypocrite.

These are people on grand juries. People like me and you. You support a rapist, who commited campaign finance laws, and violated the espionage act. You blaming democrats, is just cope.

[Captain N]

"They should just follow the law!" - Trump supporters every time a black man gets shot by police.

"They're weaponizing the DOJ to go after our President!" -Trump supporters now-

They didn't. Republicans did with Hillary, they even fucking admitted to it.
