    Lol Republicans want no penalty if he’s convicted, but I’m willing to bet those assholes would throw the whole library at any minority breaking the law or woman seeking an abortion.

        Imagine this, What if it was… Obama instead of Trump?

        EDIT: I should have put /s. I don’t care about party affiliation. The comments after mine are right, lock up anyone who attemped a coup.

          If Obama did what Trump did, then he would deserve to spend the rest of his life in prison.

          If a political leader breaks the law they should be punished severely and to the full extent of the law. No matter which affiliation. This isn’t hard logic to understand. In fact, political leaders should face even harsher punishments given the power they are expected to be responsible for.

              I feel that if an average citizen gets 1 month, then a someone entrusted with state powers like police and politicians should get 2 months. They were given special powers then abused them. Jail, straight to jail!

          That doesn’t make any sense, Obama never did anything like what Trump has done. It’s a false equivalence.

          So obviously an innocent should go free and the guilty should not.

          Seems to me the evidence that Trump is guilty is very strong.

          Can’t really do sarcasm when there is a large section of people who believe “their group” deserves special treatment under the law.
