Trump Indicted, Charges are pending...

I mean, you have to be absolutely blind to believe that crap, but it's clear that's what they believe for some reason. If the Court finds no credible evidence to support the charges, will you accept the verdict, or will you continue to insist Trump acted in a deliberate attempt to circumvent the Constitution?

It is not appropriate for a President to direct that a specific person be investigated or prosecuted. We can't know if either Biden or Trump specifically violated this principle, but we can infer from Trump's "flawless" phone call with Zelensky that he probably had similar inappropriate calls with his own prosecutors. We can also infer from Hunter Biden's plea deal that Joe has also had inappropriate conversations with his prosecutors. Preach! And throw in their righteous indignation and general smugness about their ignorance. Ole Mikey doesn't even realize how stupid it is for him to say, "yeah, they are corrupt, but they follow the Constitution." Lol, like that's how it works. Seriously, that's so ridiculous on its face. Mikey, what's wrong with you, man? There wouldn't even be a Trump if these dudes just followed the law like the rest of us. Your standards are [BLEEP], mate. Not mine.

That may be how it goes. I guess I would accept that, but, I still know what we all saw and what he did. Impeachment was the appropriate remedy.

Heck the dems don’t even try to hide it anymore yet all you guys see is Trump, Trump, Trump. A constitution is, broadly speaking and at a minimum, the system of norms that says "who is in charge now?", "how much longer will they be in charge?" and "who will be in charge after that?". The Democrats are violating technical aspects of our specific constitution. Trump tried to violate fundamental aspects of our constitution, aspects common to every other constitution in the world.

That's odd. After I transpose your language explaining what the respective parties have done, it still reads the same.

I like Jonathan Turley. He always presents good level-headed legal analysis.
What Trump's scowling mugshot means for an America full of rage | Fox News ...The fact, however, is that many on both sides relish the rage. I have previously said that the most unnerving fact of what I have called "the age of rage" is that people secretly enjoy it. Rage is addictive. It allows people to say and do things that they would ordinarily avoid in public. It is a license to hate blindly and excuse all means to achieve an end. I think that the Georgia, New York, and the federal January 6th indictments are unwarranted and threaten free speech. Moreover, it is valid for many to object that these prosecutions could have occurred years ago, but were launched just before the presidential election so that Trump will be running from court to court through the general election. It is also true that the Mar-a-Lago case is more serious and more substantive… and that threat is continuing to grow as a threat for Trump as witnesses change their testimony and Trump aides confirm key prosecution claims...

It's possible to defend both, but one set of charges is a more serious threat to our freedom and our elections and our overall peace than the other.

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening.

Impeachment was the appropriate remedy. That's a very petty way to put it. My beliefs, in this case, are nothing more and nothing less than the idea that you and I should both get an equal vote over who the next leaders of government will be. So, hopefully, they are your beliefs too.

You saw something very different than many of the rest of us did. Unless you're privy to information not yet public, all you know for certain is that he did a lot whining and complaining, alleging voter fraud and a stolen election. It wasn't very presidential looking, but it was free speech.
