U.S. v. Trump Will Be the Most Important Case in Our Nation’s History
It is perhaps the most important indictment ever handed down to safeguard American democracy and the rule of law in any U.S. court against anyone.
You're viewing a single thread.
Okay. So.
Just one question. Which US vs Trump are we talking about? There’s two.
The Jan 6 conspiracy indictment that just dropped.
If Trump is allowed to get away with his attempted coup, it's an existential crisis for our country.
Existential crisis is putting it mildly. A win means total validation for him, his cronies, and all the people who supported/participated in his coup. He'll ride the "I told you I was innocent! They stole the last one! They can't steal this one!" train through his entire campaign. The morons who drank the kool-aid last time will be out for blood.
I'm terrified to think of what comes next if he manages to worm his way back into power, but I really don't want to spend my days in another country as a refugee...
He needs to be made an example of and silenced for good. Him and everyone else involved. This can't happen again.
My biggest fear is that Trump and DeSantis both run and split the ticket, but get more votes combined than Biden. Biden wins, red states refuse to certify, some move to secede and drag the rest with them.
I don't see DeSantis having that kind of support. But your point about Republican legislatures refusing to honor a popular vote that doesn't go their way is extremely valid.
Trump winning will destroy democracy in this country. It will be the beginning of the end.
Yeah. I guess my point is... there's two.
yes. that makes me happy. I can be petty like that...
There are three federal criminal cases—that we know of anyway. There may be more ongoing investigations.
what's the third? My understanding is the current federal indictments are the one in florida for documents, and the one in DC for jan 6. His third indictment that I know of is the NY tax fraud that's in a state court (NY vs Trump or whatever)
There's also georgia state charges that are still pending, and the "conviction" on rape allegations, a state civil charge.
My bad, I should have added that it’s conjecture on my part but I suspect the Feds are also investigating him for defrauding his donors to “stop the steal,” to the tune of ~$250 million. But yes, two confirmed federal cases. Good call.
That would be hilarious. But also incredibly difficult.
