CantaloupeLifestyleLegal experts: Trump's unhinged attack on judge in court shows he "realizes he's going to lose"
He’s already lost, this trial is only to determine how much it will cost him. I think it’s more that he’s realized how bad his attorneys are, and that he’s going to lose everything.
And to think, all he had to do was not run for president of the United States and this probably never would have happened to him. I mean, I’ve never run for president of the United States, it’s a very easy thing to not do.
Respectfully, I hope you are wrong.
If not running was all it took not to be prosecuted then, to me, that says this is indeed a political prosecution and not about the rule of law.
Oh no, I agree with you. I was just making a joke. From what I understand he never really wanted to run for president in the first place, and was surprised he won. Honestly his business might have continued as it was, fraud and everything, if he had never done that plus all the other crazy stuff he did.
I’ve very glad he’s getting what’s coming to him. I mean he brought this on himself.

iltoroargentoI think they meant not run the first time? As in: he doesn’t run, and therefore doesn’t get elected, so he stays away from the spotlight and can, relatively, quietly love his life with his foot in his mouth at every turn, but nobody cares because he’s a D list celebrity.
I don’t even know what a world like that would look like, but I’m sure it would’ve been better than the four years we had of him.
President Hillary Clinton would be fully supporting Ukraine as House Republicans desperately searched for any excuse to launch their fifth impeachment
Clinton would have been out of office for more than a year when the invasion started and the Democrats would have a stain on their record that would have made it much harder to fight whichever Republican fascist (but I repeat myself) was currently in charge.
Out of office? Nah, re-elected
jordanlundWhen you run for president, you get the spotlight, but you also get a magnifying glass…
And in THAT mixed metaphor:
SmokeyDopeHe might have maybe still been persecuted but the feds and everyone involved would have taken their sweet time investigating potentially a few more years since he’s still an ex president and making him a felon looks bad and hurts public perception and could potentially turn ugly. Him putting himself in the spotlight again lit a fire under everyones ass.
MethylchloroisothiazolinoneAgree with what youre saying but persecuted and prosecuted are two very different things. I assume you meant prosecuted?
Good catch yes that is what I meant
as president he had access to much higher level criming, which is why he is now in the trouble he is in.
x4740NI think they mean for the first presidency. Had he not run for president and won via the electoral college, he never would’ve been in a position to commit a lot of the crimes he’s in trouble for.
Seriously. Had he not ran, or dropped out early, he could have probably started his own fringe news channel and lived a relatively unchanged, trouble free life and probably made some money doing it.
I personally think he thought he expected to lose and wasn’t expecting the Russians to barely tip the scales to eek out an electoral college victory.
TechyDadSame here. There’s a photo of him on election night as his win was being declared. Everyone around him looks happy, but he looks like he was just told he has 2 weeks to live.
Had Trump lost to Hillary, he would have done the whole “they stole the election from me” shtick. He’d have launched Trump Tirade Hour where he’d rant about the latest political topics - criticizing the people in charge and declaring that he’d solve everything so easily.
Of course, like his health care plan, Trump would never give details on HOW he’d fix everything. It would just be “A is doing B to fix complex problem C. That’s the wrong thing to do. If I was in charge, I’d fix the complex problem easily by… whoops, looks like it’s time for a commercial break!” It would really have been the best job for him. It would have fit his skills of being an armchair critic that understands nothing and yet claims to know more than anyone else.
Sadly, he won and did the whole “I know better than anyone else despite not understanding anything” from the most powerful seat on the planet.
I know better than anyone despite not understanding anything
Fucking lol. If this century could have a headline
He also could have, you know, not crimes.
kescusayCould he, though? Really?
This is fine🔥🐶☕🔥Be reasonable
That’s a lot harder to not do. Much easier to not run for president.
But he wants to look cool in front of his friends.
I can imagine a world where Trumps publicity presidenyal run starts spining and Jared/Ivanka start pulling strings to make it happen. Jared walked away with untold billions and just walks away unscathed. It’s disgusting, especially when you think of how the GOP will stop at nothing to bury Hunter.
They are desperate to show the Dems are just as bad.
