mclumber1 Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 The Federal Court's insistence that there be zero electronic media present in court rooms is just crazy. If you aren't going to allow journalists to record/broadcast, the court should at least broadcast audio itself. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nokra Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 As seen on reddit: "People keep talking about how this is unprecedented, but on average, American presidents are indicted 1.54 times per president. We've had 46 U.S. Presidents, and they've been indicted on a total of 71 felony counts. Here's how it breaks down: Presidents 1-44: 0 President 45: 71 President 46: 0" 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The power of the U.S. president has never been matched by level of stupidity of the man holding the office until Trump. It’s been pretty fucking close before. But never 1:1 like it is here. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't surprise me if the GOP and MAGA dipshits at large see his indictment as proof that he's being unfairly targeted, thus strengthening their resolve.

stepee Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 The idea of trump still running for president and perhaps even being nominated again seems so ridiculous that it’s only the fact he was elected the one time that I don’t dismiss it as a possibility. I think it’s important to remember that it’s REALLY dumb that he is still a major contender for the presidency. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching something that said that Trump's polling numbers always get a boost when something like this happens.
