Let’s not gloss over something important, Trump did try to get Hillary locked up. He had his justice department investigate her and the Clinton foundation both. They couldn’t find evidence of crimes, so Hillary remains free.
Where Trump backed down was not going extra-judicial. But let’s not let him off the hook, he tried, he’s a despot.
The campaign plans to have a presence this month at more than 200 Pride events in 23 states, including all of the battleground states, and to launch a paid media blitz aimed at mobilizing LGBTQ voters, two campaign officials said in details first shared with NBC News....

Everyone is reporting he won’t see jail time, which in my view is giving the court a pass on giving him a light sentence.
In my opinion, Trump gained so much, and could gain so much from a repeat offense, that jail is the only compelling punishment for him. He is unrepentant, and would do it again in a heartbeat.
If an election were held tomorrow, all signs point to a resounding Conservative victory. The latest projections from 338Canada show the Conservatives with a commanding lead and a projected 220 seats in the Commons, well past the 170 required to form a majority government....
Bill Pruitt, a former producer for The Apprentice whose NDA just expired after 20 years, writes in Slate that Donald Trump used the n-word during the production of the show — and there are tapes of him doing it.
No, he’s a cynical opportunist arguing for the benefit of the one red hat on the jury.
I mean, the defense had jury consultants help them find the best juror, they drove out a perfectly qualified juror with the help of their media allies and managed to score a male investment banker who reports using truth social and Twitter as their exclusive news source.
11 other jurors are an afterthought, they’ve always been targeting that one. The arguments seem ridiculous because they’re aimed at a Trump supporter. They know their audience.
Juror #2 an “investment banker” who gets all their news exclusively from Trump Truth social and Elon twitter. The red hat is there to save the day, hang the jury on some nonsense to protect the cult leader.
If I’m wrong, and the jury convicts, point to this thread and I’ll donate $25 to charity.
The observers in the court won’t say who it is, but I guarantee its that one.
Edit: I have chosen Special Olympics Canada as the charity.
Edit2: I was wrong, I will make that donation tonight and post the blurry receipt
