"The brief due Thursday (9/26) ā which is expected to exceed 200 pages, including exhibits, and is meant to convince courts Trump should be prosecuted for alleged obstruction and conspiracy criminal activity ā is a rare avenue for evidence to be aired in court before a trial.
Chutkan of the DC District Court, in a six-page opinion, said she would allowĀ such an outsized briefingĀ because the Supreme Court, in its recent decision to give TrumpāsĀ actions whileĀ president immunity from prosecution, has directed her as the trial judge to look closely at facts in the case to decide ifĀ some allegationsĀ could moveĀ forward to trial."
Trump has spent his entire life trying to get into āthe clubā. The specific āclubā he was trying to get into was the Hollywood one for many years. The Apprentice got him close, but the āreality TVā club isnāt quite the same as the āHollywood clubā. Luckily, for Trump, it was enough to get him into the political club. Iām still not quite sure how, but it was. How it got him into the presidential club is even further baffling, but he did that too. Donāt get me wrong, I understand how he got elected. But I donāt understand how he survived the primaries. (I mean I do, but Iām just sad about it.)
But Trump, assuming he loses the upcoming election, is on his way out.
Youāre probably right that heāll never be in jail. Heāll never serve a day in prison. But heāll be in court. Heāll be in court until the day he dies. Itās not perfect. Itās not what he deserves. But itās whatāll happen, and Iāll take that.
After the election all the talk of trump being charged will fade away like yesterdayās news. Much the way all the Republican talk of Hunter Biden fizzled to nothing after Biden backed out.
Had Hillary never pushed her piped piper strategy he would have never been elected. Over $1b in free advertising did that
There was an article around here a few days ago about the creation of the Apprentice. And it basically all came from that. Without that show trump likely would have disappeared forgotten to history or lost to Russian debtors. This all started there with those producers.
And those are people who should be prosecuted, and they wonāt be, because theyāre in the club.
Wait, are you arguing that the people who put Trump on a reality are only avoiding criminal prosecution because they are in some club?

and overall I agree.
Iāve never watched The Apprentice. Not because Iām ātoo coolā for it or anything. I remember watching the first season of two of Survivor. It was a fun enough show, but eventually I just got bored of it. I know Iām somewhat in the minority as reality TV really took off. Tons of reality TV exists today for a wide variety of shows and there are tons of success.
However I look at many of the folks (older adults) who are Trump supporters now and Iām confident they got their start watching him on The Apprentice.
