It sure is a good thing the Dems took the high road and didn’t have the DoJ prosecute Trump for trying to overthrow the election because that would have led to the current administration fabricating charges against Dems!
Wasn’t this case in process when he was elected? Jack Smith was the prosecutor. My point is they absolutely pursued the evidence in criminal court
Merrick Garland waited over 2 years into Biden’s term to even begin preparations to prosecute, ensuring Trump had ample time to delay until after the election. This was very weak cover to give the Dems the appearance of doing something, while accomplishing absolutely nothing.
The investigation started in Jan '22, exactly one year into Biden’s term. I agree that Merrick Garland’s relentless pursuit of propriety felt incredibly frustrating, but he clearly did everything by the book on realistic timelines given the magnitude of the case. Trump would’ve gone to court on the Jan 6th charges prior to the election if it hadn’t been for the presidential immunity case that first caused the trial to be postponed by the district judge in Feb '24, and then after the Supreme Court ruled that presidents are basically kings while on the job, the prosecution’s entire case had to be revised in that context.
Thry had four years and did nothing.
Jack Smith’s case was Trump retaining classified documents, not elections.
He had two investigations running simultaneously, the classified document case in the Southern District of Florida and the January 6th case in DC. In the latter case, the DOJ indicted Trump on:
- Conspiracy to defraud the United States
- Conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding
- Obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding
- Conspiracy against rights
They’re being so blatant with the “but look over there” dead catting, surely literally everyone can see through it now

Man that’s interesting. I’d not heard that term before… But that’s 100% what politics is here in the United States.
Let’s see how long it takes for them to go “yeah, so Bush did in fact do 9/11”
The public running a psy-op on the Trump admin (by having basic moral decency) is the last thing they expected.
Well, precedence has been set. If Obama was president, he has immunity. There’s a whole ass supreme court ruling. I guess they forgor. (Yes, I’m using forgor now. I think it’s funny.)

Yeah, I saw a legal eagle video on that… the accusations are as ridiculous as they sound.
