I have no idea what the details of this are or what will come if it, and I’m not really that interested in it tbh, I’m just happy nightwish has finally dropped the “oh I’m just an ole’ down the middle moderate!” Routine. Seems to be one of the more common shticks with posters around here.
 

He's perhaps the most law abiding person in this country. Can you imagine if the average person went through this level of scrutiny? Audits, wire taps, law enforcement threatening everyone you knew to give them anything in you, raids, and even raiding your attorney's office despite very clear privilege.

The average politician would be in jail in 15 minutes

Never claimed I was or wasn't. I've said that I've voted for both Democrats and Republicans in the past. Never liked Trump, saw through his constant bs and "I'm a victim!" routine, and if the FBI searches his home, I'm not going to weep about it. It's his doing. Again, if the nuts here want to give him money or "fight for him", have at it. If it were Biden's kid or some celebrity in the same situation, this board would have a party over it. Maybe visit and read the political thread sometime instead of worrying about my takes. We're all moderates compared to them.

Yea, you’re the moderate alright. Supporting 6 years of the Democrats using govt agencies for political inquisition of someone just because he was a threat to their grip on power.

This same FBI quite literally opened an investigation into Trump in his first month in office on the notion he was a Russian asset, knowing damn well all their info was false, and from his political opponent. So spare us the “ extreme” BS, especially coming from someone with multiple accounts on here just to push their point of view.
 
Question for Trump fans. If this raid leads to evidence showing that Donald Trump broke laws or committed felonies, is it still a political witch hunt? And why would a former President not be held to the same standards as the general public?

Also, if your response is that all politicians break laws. Maybe you're not wrong. Why not hold them accountable?

Are you saying you think the answer would be some sort of whataboutism?? I mean that would be crazy!! If I had a genie bottle my first wish would be never to hear the name Trump ever again.

I’m all for holding politicians accountable. But that’s not what’s happening here. Like @HymanKaplan pointed out, where are the raids on Pelosi, Schumer, McConnell, et all? Why is Hunter Biden allowed to break the law? Where are the Epstein prosecutions? Where are the raids on FBI/DOJ/CIA officials that lied under oath to Congress regarding the Steele Dossier?

Or are you stupid enough to think those politicians are clean?

Lock up corrupt politicians. All of them from both parties. 100% on board with that. But that’s not happening. And the only answer as to why is a politicized DOJ geared to protect those in power while weaponized to go after opponents.
 

WINNING! MAGA! Fraud!

LANSING —A months-long Republican investigation into Michigan’s 2020 election uncovered no evidence of widespread fraud and concluded Wednesday with a recommendation the attorney general investigate those who made false claims for "personal gain."

Broke the law by taking boxes that someone else packed up for him?

Damn, how many of these will you accept before realizing they’re using the govt to damage political enemies? That’s a better question.

So literally your argument is not that Trump isn’t guilty but there are other potentially corrupt lawmakers.

But I don’t think that holds up in the court of law.
 
BS, they were looking for political dirt. I’m sure what you listed was the excuse used.
The excuse used by the FBI was for a legal search warrant approved by a federal judge.
I'd be fine with Biden getting raided if he walks out with boxes of archives from the Whitehouse at the end of his term too.
Some of y'all on here scream about law and order but then look the other way as our US Capitol is attacked and your favorite President steals documents illegally from the Oval Office.
NOBODY is above the law including the ex Thief in Chief.

It’s way too soon to be making comments like this. Of course, the argument that someone else packed boxes and he happened to keep the documents is not an argument on strong grounds.

But also, the intent of that raid likely wasn’t just to get documents he shouldn’t have had but what was in the actual documents. That’s the part not public yet.

You are concerned about corrupt politicians so much that the guy who came from outside the government to become a political leader is more concerning to you than a swamp rat like Biden. Gtfooh.

I heard he probably took a stapler too.

And a sharpie.

I don’t know. I tend to avoid cliche lines crafted by campaigns like “swamp”, but yes, I guess I radically believe that all politicians who break the law should be held accountable. Crazy I know

I don’t know if Trump is guilty or not. In fact, he’s presumed innocent.

But quit pivoting - do you think no other high ranking politician, particularly those friendly to the current administration, has done something worry of a FBI search warrant execution?

Doesn't matter who packed his damn boxes. He is responsible for whatever boxes end up in his house or in his possession.
Try your argument the next time your suitcase filled with heroin is seized by TSA agents at an airport.
Just tell them you didn't pack your suitcase and have no idea how that heroin ended up there.
Good luck with that. 😂😂😂😂😂

I’ve already stated that all politicians who break the law should be held accountable. I’m 100% good with that. I can’t understand why anyone would justify politicians being above the law. In fact, even if you assume this is all politically motivated, it doesn’t change the reality that if he’s guilty, he’s guilty.

Awesome. So where are the other raids? Or do you think the other side is 100% clean?

No it isn’t, what we have been told is they went in due to the national archives deal.
If someone packed up his boxes and sent them to Maralago how would Trump know what they put in them? He sure as hell can’t send them back via UPS if they’re classified.
They went in to gather other info, and used the archives deal for the excuse.

Again, how many of these investigations will you accept before realizing they’re political to protect the ruling elite in DC?

We will eventually see what was taken or not taken.
At the end of the day he is not allowed to take anything.... It all belongs to the people of the United States.
He shouldn't have taken jack sh** and knew that to begin with.
Just like he knows he lost the election and knows how to manipulate the masses. Some of us aren't fooled by his BS and are letting him know.
