              The illegal payoff and his money ganes began outside his presidency. They are state convictions.

              SCOTUS did not invalidate those.

              I dunno where you’re going with your aggrieved post-truth rhetoric, but the truth did and does matter.

                I am saying that if they put the orange turd back in the Oval Office, and let’s say New York sentences him to prison, what will happen?

                This person is a convicted rapist, fraudster and who knows what else, and he has not seen any consequence. Will he?

                  We’ll have to find out. Legally, he gets equal treatment.

                  It’s his first felony conviction but there are 34 of them.

      That fucker shouldn’t drop out of the race, he should be disqualified for treason and thrown in jail for his multitude of crimes.

      And while I’m dreaming, I’d like a pony, too

      Standing against a guy that’s a raving lunatic doesn’t make it OK to be senile. Hilary was a shit candidate and look what that got us.

        Are we forgetting that he cheated to win? Like it’s proven that the Russians used social media to convince people to vote for Trump. Whether or not Trump directly paid for it is speculation. But they can put Jaret Kushner and Donald Jr. In the same room with the same people several times.
