    If this was not politically motivated, these trials would have been happening in 2012 or 2005.

    Trump’s criminal charges involve his handling of documents after his Presidency, his attempt to illegally hold on to power at the end of his Presidency, and his financial records from when he ran for President in 2016. Do you think Antifa has a time machine?

      Could I have made it more obvious what I was talking about than by stating those years and using the words “trials” instead of “charges”? like did you really think I was talking about those? JFC.

        The article is talking specifically about the Jan 6 stuff, which he is facing a criminal trial over. In fact, when Mitch McConnell voted to acquit Trump in the impeachment for that, he directly stated that it was because it was more suitable for a criminal trial.

          That doesn’t mean I have to be limited to talking about that, and I made it REALLY obvious i wasn’t.
