    No. He’s a political candidate. What we’re hoping for is a speedy denial of an appeal. But he’ll slow play that part as much as he can, too.

    All this wait-until-the-campaign-year BS is just BS. Prosecute when you have sufficient proof. I can’t believe it all happened to land this year on accident.

    And, no, I am very definitely Not defending Trump. I’m upset they didn’t do this shit last year. Or the year before.

      Its true - the justice system was slow when it had enough people and resources to handle its workload. And that was 200 years ago.

      Still. A treasonous secret-selling “president” who’s going TO DO IT AGAIN you’d think somebody with a brain, a heart, a love for this country and a super-secret red button to handle such matters - you’d think they’d have handled it by now. Guess not.

      That’s what pisses me off about Colorado kicking him off the ballot. No shit it got overturned. Ballots and whatnot were probably already printed (not from CO btw). It’s not that they don’t have a case… they most certainly do. They had 3 years, and they wait until a couple months before the primary? At that point, it is interference.
