The FBI raiding Trump and somehow barring him from holding office in the future is a major win for the GOP.

I know many here really “like” Trump - and by like I mean worship the man as the only potential savior of the US. You are the minority, if that’s you. Outside of the sycophants who worship him, he’s politically dead.

Taking Trump off the table opens the door for Desantis. This is a good thing.

Do you love Trump more than you hate the Biden Admin/progressive s show the country is turning into? Most probably don’t.

Let Trump go. He had his moment. GOP has to look forward the next candidate they can bring forward, build them up, and beat the Dems in 2024.

The blind love for the orange man is why the GOP lost in 2020. Don’t put a loser back on the ticket - you’ll lose - and the GOP needs to win.

GOP should be thankful for this gift from the FBI.

To everyone claiming this is some egregious event, will you still feel that way if the FBI announces they found what they were looking for? Or do you believe that Trump, the self-dubbed Law & Order President, is above the law?

Let's be honest, no judge is going to sign a search warrant for the residence of a former President without being presented with ironclad probable cause.


A good number of us have been super consistent on that if he broke the law, arrest his ass. Now, why aren't you the same way? No integrity?


Wait…

So you’re saying arrest Trump if he did something wrong? Like pack off 15 boxes of classified information?


if it's against the law, and warrants jail time, yes, arrest him. And remember, nobody is above the law.

Trump stopped being an authorized person on January 20th, 2021. He is no longer a government employee. He no longer has his Presidential security clearance. So under what law is he allowed to still have access to classified documents?

How do you know those items in question were not there prior to his leaving office?
You understand there were modifications made to the residence to secure classified information?
You understand he could declassify what he chooses as potus?
He has not lost his clearance, you understand that fact?
The rep from the national archives admits discussing document requests?

I look forward to seeing ALL the pertinent documents and the timeline for this Biden crap pile.

You’re actually the first right winger I’ve heard say that. I’m wearing a surprised face right now.



Sure we shouldn’t defund the police like Republican leader MTG said?

Even if they were there prior to leaving office, he was notified shortly after leaving office they would need to be turned over to NARA. It took nearly a year before the 15 boxes were turned over and apparently that still wasn't everything.

All men are supposed to be equal under the law. Unless there's a law somewhere in the USC that I missed that codifies a former President having legal immunity, why should Trump not be held to the same standard as you or me?

This site always complains about the being a two-tier justice system, except when it comes to Trump. Then they demand one.


Sure our ideals make it difficult to bringncriminal politicians to justice; but that doesn't mean we should abandon our ideals.

The gervince is not about holding Trump to account for his supposed crimes; Trump has been under one form of investigation or another for the past 6 years. He IS being treated equally, probably more equally at this point.

The gervince is in conducting the fishing expedition that occurred at his home yesterday. That is when we run the risk of looking like a Banana Republic. A look that the US should not put on itself... not if we want to have the high ground when dealing with other countries.

Unless LOE or the DOJ have the evidence needed to purp walk a president to a jail cell in short order than they should not be raiding his/her home. Its that simple. You can cry about the USC all day long ... all you are really doing is trying to justify your desire to see a top political rival persecuted.

There is a congressional hearing taking place right now aimed to bring the ex President to the justice you feel he deserves. A hearing wherein the Congressman who are conducting it feel that they have all the evidence they need to prove Trump's guilt. Let that be enough for you to feel vindicated. Don't participate in bringing the US to a place we should not be going ... over a man who is not worth it.

defund the police is owned 100% BY ASSHOLE DEMOCRATS. Anyone trying to shift that one is one brain dead idiot.
And you haven't been paying attention, many of us have stated that if Trump or anyone else breaks the law, they need to be arrested, then we usually say something about unequal justice, and point to crimes that others did and were ignored, and folks like you usually scamper off and say nothing.

He is not in that chair these days. Maybe it took him a while to find where the smoke was coming from?

The FBI has been in possession of Hunter's laptop for three years. Which means they had it while Trump was President. If there was any evidence of illegality on our, why did Trump's FBI not arrest him?


Good Question ! First, it was never Trump’s FBI, and I’d assert it was corrupt when Trump took office, at least the top tier. We were all told the laptop was debunked as Russian disinformation, that wasn’t true. The collaboration by MSM and Social Media make it all but impossible to challenge those claims was effectively censorship, used to cover this up prior to the Presidential election. The FBI is supposed to be non-partisan, clearly it is Not !

Trump still has a clearance. A very high clearance, in fact. Because as POTUS he had access to a lot of things. There is no way to know how much he retained mentally. If he had an operation only certain people can do the procedure due to what he could say while under.

Even if you do not have a clearance. No matter how deeply classified an event becomes (say full on alien contact and a treaty) if you were there and part of it, you are automatically cleared for what you were a part of in the event. Let’s say for example that there were two assassins on the grassy knoll and you took one out. The official story might have became that you tried to save JFK, but no one would have heard about LHO or the second assassin. You probably would have had a heart attack in December 1963…but until then you would know that guy was shooting at the motorcade. You might be told the second guy was too…or was trying to kill the first guy and ran to get Oswald but was too late…

I do have a question for the cheer leaders of the left here, if this is really about some boxes of documents that Trump has, do you honestly think this is a tipping point that will turn his supporters away from him?

I'm of the belief that if he broke a law, arrest him, but as research has shown, that won't stop him from running again, and he has massive momentum right now, plus his track record against what followed, showing that if you want to know what piss poor leadership will give you, look no further than Joe Biden.

They had better find a dead body, or some Russian hookers with pee on the sheets. Anything short of that, will just catapult Trump into the White House again.

Most of this will not even continue after the midterms and the Democrats already lost, along with those senate seats.

No control of the House meansbwe can stop wasting taxpayers dollars on all these witch hunts.

well yes former presidents do get Intelligence briefings, and can ask for them which would still require a security clearance.

here is just one article that states slo joe wanted to stop trump from classified intelligence briefings.


When asked in an interview with "CBS Evening News" anchor Norah O'Donnell if he thought Trump should receive an intelligence briefing if he requested one,

Biden said, "I think not." "I'd rather not speculate out loud," Biden said when asked what he fears could happen if Trump continued to receive the briefings. "I just think that there is no need for him to have the -- the intelligence briefings. What value is giving him an intelligence briefing? What impact does he have at all, other than the fact he might slip and say something?"
Biden says Trump should no longer receive classified intelligence briefings


slo joe banned it just for pure dem spite,

Yep
And the archivist admitted cooperation from mr trump.
Could you point me out the time requirement in the law you reference?

No exigency

I look forward to seeing this paper trail.

LOL, reaching this far will hurt badly when you fall, and you will.

quick question, is the FBI supposed to be Apolitical, or working for one specific party? Careful how you answer.

If he is found guilty of violating 18 U.S. Code § 2071 then he will be barred from running for office.

What if Trump called for it? He has seen the swamp that deep and toxic and no one there to help. As a hail mary he called in the FBI.

For those guys stuck in the pits of hell, Jesus wont save your ass overnight. In knowing compassion, understanding and forgiveness does exist helps find up when in that dark cold place. We are finding that everywhere, space, deep ocean, the soul, medical science these days.
