    That's the oldest offence.

    Prosecutions take time.

    It'll be this first, then Jan 6 and then mar a Lago.

    Not really a thing in US jurisprudence. Not unknown though. More likely released on his own recognizance, perhaps reminded not to leave the country, which might be a challenge, has to give up his passports and whatnot.

    And, of course, anything he says in public or on social media once he's arrested can be used in the case against him. Woot.

    Would it be too much to ask that he is led by the cops on a perp walk in handcuffs out of Trump Tower alongside a crowd of bayng New Yorkers chanting Lock Him Up, Lock Him Up? That would just make my year, please make it so

    He's already called on his domestic terrorists to gather...

    You would be in a better position to advise how Truth Social is going seeing as your signed up to the platform and feed this thread with Trump's posts on this thread.



  • Registered Users Posts: 13,103 ✭✭✭✭Igotadose


    In his call-to-violence truth thing, TFG describes himself as the Former President. Glad to see he admits that now.



  • Registered Users Posts: 33,357 ✭✭✭✭Penn


    Many of Trump's posts get screenshot and then posted on Twitter, as per the posts on this thread which link to tweets showing the screenshots rather than the screenshots themselves.



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 24,088 Mod ✭✭✭✭robinph


    Seeing as he has a secret service detail following him about due to being an ex president it's not like he can do much of an escape.

    I'm not on truth social.


    While you are gracing us with your presence can you finally answer the question regarding Carlson and his producer's comments on their viewers?



  • Registered Users Posts: 12,503 ✭✭✭✭Snake Plisken


    Oh is that your gotcha moment from that lunatic blogger based in Ireland? Really couldn't care less about those emails strange the timing of that leak btw to take the focus of the videos he released?

    Btw I see your retweeting the far left TDS CNBC lunatic Kyle Griffen now says it all really. 🤣🤣🤣

    As for Trump being arrested this is the same D.A. who let's violent criminals walk free! The moronic Democrats are trying to make him illegible to run and this will make Trump stronger!

    Again as I said before I want Desantis to run and not Trump But whatever you want to say about the man he was still a better President then the clown that is currently in the White House!



  • Registered Users Posts: 6,009 ✭✭✭TheIrishGrover


    Okay dokey



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,719 ✭✭✭Ahwell


    Just because you say it, doesn't make it so. On what grounds was he a better President?



  • Registered Users Posts: 33,357 ✭✭✭✭Penn


    "Btw I see your retweeting the far left TDS CNBC lunatic Kyle Griffen now says it all really. 🤣🤣🤣"

    That doesn't negate the screenshot of Trump's actual post on Truth Social. Doesn't change it even a little bit. It's literally Trump's own words being shown.

    Its laughable that Kyle Griffen is deemed a credible source whilst the likes of Fox are derided on here.

    MSNBC and CNN have been exposed as being as dishonest as Fox News in recent years.

    As for Trump being arrested this is the same D.A. who let's violent criminals walk free! The moronic Democrats are trying to make him illegible to run and this will make Trump stronger!

    Its a witch hunt as Trump rightly says , a personal vendetta.

    This is the same Democrat party who bailed criminals and murderers out of jail a few summers ago as it suited their agenda against Trump.

    The same party wanted to defund the police.

    This case is being taken to hamper Trumps 2024 campaign, it will likely go on for at least 18 months perhaps longer.



  • Registered Users Posts: 6,009 ✭✭✭TheIrishGrover


    So. A question.....

    Did she alter Trump's.... hehe hehe... "truth"? It was posted here from a source that, contrary to allegations, does NOT have access to "truth social".

    If the post came, unaltered and unedited from the source, does that alter the context?

    Some are getting hung up on where this screen capture came from but if it is an exact duplicate, does this alter the narrative?

    Or are you saying that the post is somehow twisted beggars it was forwarded from a source you do not agree with?

    Assuming no? Next....



  • Registered Users Posts: 14,605 ✭✭✭✭MisterAnarchy


    Its a stock ploy of the Trump dislikers on here to wheel out that argument anytime someone posts a source they disapprove of irrespective of the content.

    If I posted a Fox News tweet or right wing commentator saying tomorrow is Sunday, it would be scoffed at.

    Griffen is one of the most dishonest people in news media.



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 24,088 Mod ✭✭✭✭robinph


    It's a screenshot of a post from Trump, which they then quoted.


    Which bit exactly do you disagree with?

    Fox News have literally be shown to be putting commentators and Trump acolytes on their shows to spread election conspiracies that they themselves knew were dangerous lies and absolute bullsh*t just for ratings.

    Kyle Griffen posted a screenshot (one that many others also posted and has been reported on several news channels) of a Trump post on his own website.

    The two are not the same.

    Im afraid you are going to be very disappointed.

    This case is as weak as water and when it fails as it will, it will discourage other prosecutors from going after Trump with far stronger cases.

    It seems to be even outside the statute of limitations of 2 years.

    This is a good article by acclaimed lawyer Jonathan Turley outlining the weakness of the case.

    Although it may be politically popular, the case is legally pathetic. Bragg is struggling to twist state laws to effectively prosecute a federal case long ago rejected by the Justice Department against Trump over his payment of “hush money” to former stripper Stormy Daniels.

    It is extremely difficult to show that paying money to cover up an embarrassing affair was done for election purposes as opposed to an array of obvious other reasons, from protecting a celebrity’s reputation to preserving a marriage. That was demonstrated by the failed federal prosecution of former presidential candidate John Edwards on a much stronger charge of using campaign funds to cover up an affair.

    The Southern District of New York’s U.S. Attorney’s office had no love lost for Trump, pursuing him and his associates in myriad investigations, but it ultimately rejected a prosecution based on the election law violations. It was not alone: The Federal Election Commission (FEC) chair also expressed doubts about the theory.

    Prosecutors working under Bragg’s predecessor, Cyrus Vance Jr., also reportedly rejected the viability of using a New York law to effectively charge a federal offense. More importantly, Bragg himself previously expressed doubts about the case, effectively shutting it down soon after he took office.

    You seem to be under the impression that this is untrustworthy because Griffen was the source?

    Griffen wasn't the source.

    Trump was the source.

    It would be odd if this was the hill that Trump had to die on. Odd, and strangley poetic that what got him convicted was the result of being a cheating scumbag and then trying to use his legal toadie to pay her off…who in turn had to prompt Trump to get repaid for shelling out for him.

    I don’t think it would happen, and Trump really should be done for far more serious crimes, but this goes to show how slowly the legal gears turn in the States. I think the Stormy thing was one of the first legal fights I remember from the beginning all this nonsense (aka The Trump «Presidency»). Shocking that an attempt to overthrow the United States itself has not earned him a swifter response.

    Frankly he should be sentenced to some remote South Atlantic island with no internet access. I think Napoleon’s old room is currently unoccupied.

    Absolute nonsense, Fox News in court have admitted they are total bulls*it and nobody should believe what they air. When have CNN or MSNBC have had to admit anything like that...

    This is a familiar tactic by the right wing, "both sides are a bad as each other" when the reality is far from that. For years they have tried tell you the Dems and Republicans are basically two sides of the same coin yet their voting records over past 15 years completely annihilate that talking point.

    What establishment Dems wanted to defend the police, name them

    The “lock her up” brigade are after getting very angry.

    Seeing lots of threats of violence from them online.

    So much for law and order.

    Wonder will they actual do something?



  • Registered Users Posts: 6,009 ✭✭✭TheIrishGrover


    Trump supporters threatening violence? Say it ain't so...



  • Registered Users Posts: 12,028 ✭✭✭✭Rjd2



    Imagine going to jail for Donald Trump a man who after J6 pardoned zero people and contributed zero money to any of their legal campaigns and who considers you stupid marks? The shame of it all.

    Regarding long term politically, it may solidify his base and will help him secure the GOP nomination, but ultimately it will solidify the opposition towards him after that.

    81 million people voted against him last time, the indictment if it occurs is most certainty not going to tempt many to give him another chance.



  • Registered Users Posts: 13,580 ✭✭✭✭briany


    I'm sure there are plenty of sour-faced frizzy-bearded men out there in the United States who are part of militias named things like, "The Ammo Keepers" or whatever who absolutely want to try something.

    However-

    There's no excuse for internal security forces not anticipating the threat after January 6th, 2021. If something big does happen, the USA probably has bigger problems than a bunch of wannabe insurrectionists running around, and that problem would be that there are members of law enforcement with no intention of suppressing these types and/or bringing them to justice, if not that there are many members of law enforcement who are of an insurrectionist mindset themselves.

    Isn't it good to finally see the possibility of some justice after decades of sh1tting all over the average joe bloggs.

    Isn't it good to see him virtually sh1t his pants.
