Trump's 91 Felony Charges

Post by TC Talks » Fri Feb 09, 2024 2:45 pm

Besides the 4000+ civil cases Trump has had in his lifetime, including the $83M verdict recently, he has 91 felony indictments he is juggling. These situations are costing the GOP hundreds of millions of dollars that would normally be used for campaigning...
March 2023 indictment in New York

A March 2023 indictment in New York, in which Trump faces 34 criminal charges of falsifying business records in the first degree related to payments made to Stormy Daniels before the 2016 presidential election.[2] The trial is scheduled for March 25, 2024.[10]

June 2023 federal indictment in Florida

A June 2023 federal indictment related to classified government documents, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, in which Trump faces 40 criminal charges alleging mishandling of sensitive documents and conspiracy to obstruct the government in retrieving these documents.[2][11] The trial is scheduled for May 20, 2024.[12]

August 2023 federal indictment in Washington, D.C.

An August 2023 federal indictment related to attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, in which Trump faces four criminal charges of conspiring to defraud the government and disenfranchise voters, and corruptly obstructing an official proceeding.[2] This case includes Trump's involvement in the January 6 U.S. Capitol attack. On February 2, 2024, Judge Tanya Chutkan said she would not schedule trial until the DC Circuit Court of Appeals decides whether Trump is immune from prosecution.[13] On February 6, DC Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Trump does not have presidential immunity from prosection.[14]

August 2023 indictment in Georgia

An August 2023 indictment in Georgia, in which Trump faces 13 criminal charges related to alleged attempts to overturn Joe Biden's victory in Georgia, alongside 18 accused co-conspirators.[15] The trial is not yet scheduled.[2]

NO IT ISNT. The fact they are spending money on his legal fees is Trumps fault. If he had exited gracefully and vowed to rise again and not been a petulant child the number of cases against him would be… drum roll please… exactly zero, 0, zilch, nada, zip, nothing, none, nonexistent. There is no grand conspiracy… he’s a raving madman doing raving madman things.

Nobody forced Trump to keep documents after they asked for them back and then he lied about having them and had minions move them around his various properties.

Nobody told him to get separate slates of electors together and contest the election and think he could wage a pressure campaign.

Nobody told him to rile up his base on 1/6 and spark a riot.

These things are 100% Trumps fault. He wasn’t coerced, he wasn’t drugged by the deep state. HE DID IT TO HIMSELF. If you can’t see that you are as delusional as I thought you were when you preemptively declared victory the first week of friggin February. There’s cocky and there’s absolutely out of control. You are the latter.

Nobody forced prosecutors to charge him with anything. No prosecutor has ever charged any of our past Presidents with a crime. And don't tell me that there hasn't been plenty to choose from through the years if a prosecutor wanted to go after a past President.

The evidence was overwhelming. Not charging him would be malpractice. But instead of blaming the moron that did the actions they caused charges to be brought you blame the prosecutors…. You are literally blaming the cop for the fact the guy was going 70 in a 35 and now gets a ticket.

In the Georgia case it was overwhelming. In the documents case he might have gotten off if he hadn’t absolutely stonewalled on giving the documents up and forced the feds to go get them. Biden and Pence voluntarily gave up all documents when asked. But Trump just had to lie to the folks in charge of the documents and then say they were all turned in several different times with each proving to be a lie and then move them around in various boxes between 2 of his properties and order the doctoring of security footage that shows them doing it and get himself recorded describing a frigging war plan to a couple of publishers. None of our past presidents had any dirt that remotely approached what Trump has done. He is completely on his own level there. Nixon would have been prosecuted had Ford not pardoned him but again that was a bad move. Presidents are not above the law. They cannot be. We don’t do kings and that’s the definition of a king. Presidents are not kings. We don’t like kings in this country.

So no… other than Nixon past presidents have not had reason to be prosecuted post presidency.

I had heard about this delusional alternate reality that the cult inhabits… but for gods sakes you have become detached enough to appear unhinged between this and your premature victory parade.

Democrats are in a damned if they do, damned if they don’t moment. If you don’t convict him, it is a national embarrassment. If you do convict him, civil war.
They/them, non-binary and proud.

Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

It would be wise to ask how we have allowed a mentally ill man to hold the rest of us hostage for 9 years.

Voting for Trump is dumber than playing Russian Roulette with fully loaded chambers.

I don't read insurrection anywhere on your list. Trump is unique in trying to overthrow an election.

From the last two be more specific about what they did that would warrant charges. The first one with Clinton was small potatoes. They aren’t gonna do anything with that. But just like you see on cops.. if you work with them they go a lot easier on you, if Trump had turned all the documents in there would have been no raid and no criminal case there. Thinking you run the whole show because somehow nobody has stopped you in your entire life which has to be some kind of record given his age is not a good plan.

Maybe this is some what related to Trump and his indictments. He had, not sure if he still does, a resort hotel in Las Vegas. He tried several times to get a gaming license to open a casino for the property. Every time he went in front of the Nevada Gaming Commission his application was turned down. So his property was , and may still be, an also run there. What did the commission see that made them turn down the application more than once.

Gotta be something financial or they got a bad vibe or all of the other casino owners lobbied seeing him as a disaster or some combination of these. That's too far back to credibly believe it was political since he was a Democrat then and if you said he would be president some day you ran the risk of being committed.
