“Special counsel Jack Smith laid out new evidence to support his assertion that Donald Trump’s efforts to subvert the results of the 2020 election were taken as a private candidate, rather than his official capacity as the president…”
Cue republicans immediately trying to shift the discussion to how inappropriate it is to do literally anything at all relating to Donald Trump’s many indictments while the election is this close at hand, because as the republican candidate for president he should be above the law. You know, in the name of fairness.
Yep. Over on Fox News this is another “desperate” move by a weaponized DOJ.
they’ve been saying that for 3 years, though. Well. would have been… but it took that long to get here.
grrr.
When you’re building a case against someone like Trump, you wait until it’s rock solid before moving on it. There’s the reason federal prosecutors have such a high conviction rate.
And?
It took them 2.5 years to get the fucking documents back. Because “that might be political” It took them only slightly less time to get a special prosecutor appointed. marrick garland absolutely went political in the other way because he was scared of trump and slow walked the shit out of it in the hopes that trump would just go away.
Trump led an insurrection to try and overthrow the lawful government of the united states, he was never “just” going to go away.
