    This is really his first criminal trial? Dudes been doing illegal shit since birth.

    Tax fraud, housing discrimination, wage theft, collaborating with jefferey fucking epstien. You can really get away with anything if you're born rich in this country.

      Epstein was assassinated and the libs entirely forgot all about him within so many weeks or so - I don't remember exactly. And the Qanon people had already been ignoring Epstein so they didn't care. And least the Qanon people have an excuse for their delusions and myopia. They're crazy.

      You can really get away with anything if you're born rich in this country.

      That's the most important thing but - of course - the libs will entirely ignore it. 99.99999+% of Americans would have gone immediately to jail (in pre-trail detention) if they had 1/100th of the files Trump kept in Mar-a-Lago. And then they would have been convicted and sentenced to decades in jail. But Trump's handpicked judge will make sure his case don't go to trial before the election. And if he loses the election - she'll surely kill it.

      They've slow walked the entire thing so as to cross every t and dot every i and preserve faith in our institutions and all its done is make the case that the institutions are fucking broken as all hell and the powerful do not face consequences.
