    he pleaded not guilty. and his lawyer said this is “an attack on america”.

    'cause he had boxes of papers he wasn’t supposed to have, that this is an attack on america? yeah, okay 🙄

      I’m wondering if the lawyers who quit did so because they were too embarrassed to say shit like that in court, despite a certain client’s demands.

      This is gonna be wild… the feds hardly ever lose.

      With that, I’m very curious to see the fallout should he be convicted.

      I work with many people who are so upset over this, calling it injustice and how horrible that we choose to prosecute Trump when we should instead be jailing Hillary, Harris, and Biden.

      I bite my tongue and don’t say anything but it’s so frustrating.

        As far as Hillary goes I am not sure why Trump’s DoJ didn’t hand down an indictment if it had evidence that she ultimately committed a crime? I guess the same is true for Hunter.

        same here. i’m all for treating everyone as equal, but i’m pretty sure nothing new came up after hillary was already investigated and iirc biden was slapped on the wrist for not returning some documents. but hey, you know, one box is the same as rooms full of boxes, apparently
