Like the Russia hoax. It embroiled the world in a fake scandal for many years and deceived the American people, even the world, so much so that it rea...

I said it didn’t seem like much of a crime and gave reasons why. You want a puff?
August 09, 2023 at 17:26
You can't make this stuff up. Disgraced FBI official who probed Trump-Russia ties set to plead guilty to illegally working for Russian oligarch https:...

I get it. It's illegal because it's illegal. It's a crime because it's a crime. Fascinating stuff. Thanks for your input.

New Trump indictment coming down the pipe any day now. https://twitter.com/GOPoversight/status/1689260391036010497?s=20 https://oversight.house.gov/wp...

Euthanasia is legal where I live. Yeah, I am aware they are illegal according to law and will be prosecuted by lawyers. According to law it was once l...

He didn't say something others wanted him to say. That appears to be the extent of his crimes in the minds of his detractors.
August 09, 2023 at 16:25
A victimless crime lacking any overt criminal act or criminal intent doesn't seem like much of a crime. It sounds like a conspiracy theory, to me.
August 09, 2023 at 16:15
I’m just curious as to why you believe it or not. If not for evidence or lack thereof, then what?
August 09, 2023 at 16:08
I still can’t figure out what particular act was the criminal one or who the victims were.
August 09, 2023 at 16:01
Contesting an election is legal.
August 09, 2023 at 15:50
In this case you do need a confession, or some substantial evidence, because all of the evidence points to Trump believing the election was stolen. I ...
August 09, 2023 at 15:31
Bannon was saying that for months before the election as a part of a speaking tour. He also said that Trump would be inaugurated and Pelosi would invo...

Is this conspiracy of yours a theory? Or is there some indication that these men met and discussed such ideas at some point before the election?
August 08, 2023 at 15:43
He didn’t quote Trump. I want to know Trump’s thoughts, not Bannon’s.
August 07, 2023 at 18:56
It must be a quote from Donald Trump because he is the only one that can speak about his thoughts, intentions, and beliefs. If an eye witness can quot...
August 07, 2023 at 18:12
I've gone ahead and read the context as you've suggested. In context the surmising is even worse. Trump and his lawyers made too many claims to mentio...
August 07, 2023 at 18:01
I actually agree with this. Materialists often propose a brain/body dualism that is just as fraught as mind/body dualism, and for the same reasons.
August 07, 2023 at 16:12
1) The president of the united states refused to look at a link to a video, and you surmise this as Trump declining to view "refuting evidence". What ...
August 07, 2023 at 16:03
I said they were all incompetent, deep-state bureaucrats. DeSantis was a JAG lawyer. For one, I don't like lawyers and think that profession is overra...
August 07, 2023 at 15:47
I don't, because the best you've shown is that he didn't believe the people he was talking to, that he didn't repeat their claims, and the effect such...

August 07, 2023 at 15:21
I did respond and you ignored it, or missed it, one or the other. Do you need me to quote it for you?
August 07, 2023 at 15:14
Do you only speak in questions? Is this an interview?
August 07, 2023 at 13:21
I have responded to your three points. As for Russian active measures, the activities and impacts were largely overstated. The Mueller case against Co...
August 07, 2023 at 13:10
My guess is because they are incompetent, deep-state bureaucrats. But maybe it was to clear their names from the blizzard of lies by then surrounding ...
August 06, 2023 at 22:10
John Durham’s report in combination with the IG report shows it was a hoax and an utter failure in bureaucratic competence.
August 06, 2023 at 19:23
Simply because there is no crime, no victim, no corrupt activity. He is the victim. They are the guilty party. The government perpetrated the greatest...
August 06, 2023 at 19:09
Trump said some things. I want to know what crime he committed, and what evidence there is that he did so corruptly. What act, which thought, and what...
August 05, 2023 at 19:11
What do you infer from the Georgia phone call and why?
August 05, 2023 at 17:30
I’m sure he does believe it. He also believed he turned over all evidence to Trump's legal team as required by law and falsely claimed that he had. Th...
August 05, 2023 at 15:50
I’m glad you caught that. I used Smith’s proof by assertion to make the same baseless accusation. The difference is I did it in jest. Smith did it to ...
August 05, 2023 at 15:11
I don’t know. Unlike Benkei I don’t pretend to know the future.
August 05, 2023 at 13:25
There is no probable cause. There is no evidence of any crime or criminal activity. They have to stretch the plain meaning of language to argue their ...
August 04, 2023 at 23:08
They continued to count votes after election day, on days when there is no election, after the election was over, and magically Biden pulled ahead.
August 04, 2023 at 18:41
The illegality of the charges is that he intended to corruptly defraud the United States or deny people their rights. No one proved he defrauded the U...
August 04, 2023 at 18:40
The president has the authority to fire who he wants, and for whatever reason. Zero corruption there. You have to show that he corruptly defrauded the...
August 04, 2023 at 18:36
I never said they were applicable in court. So yours is a mischaracterization and thus an evasion of my argument.
August 04, 2023 at 17:49
You’d have to prove he did so corruptly. Any quote or admission would suffice, given proper context. Inference by projection or conspiracy theory just...
August 04, 2023 at 16:43
He said he would not concede and would contest the results if the election wasn't free or fair. He rightfully feared the dirty pool that occurred in t...
August 04, 2023 at 16:40
I’m sure you could find it if pressed. But comments from Stone and Bannon don’t mean much, I’m afraid. The greatest conspiracy to defraud the United S...
August 04, 2023 at 15:05
Juries can be wrong. How do wrongful convictions fit into your notion of democracy?
August 03, 2023 at 22:26
No. I am unable to pass off someone else’s judgement with my own, especially a Washington jury.
August 03, 2023 at 19:24
The way you frame it sounds criminal, but the alternate electors scheme has precedent in the JFK/Nixon election of 1960. The judge there seemed to thi...
August 03, 2023 at 18:55
You don’t have to quote all of it. Just one would suffice. The first one was a swing and a miss. Contesting an election isn’t criminal. But criminaliz...
August 03, 2023 at 16:23
Your description of evidence shows Trump did nothing except ask for a statement.
August 03, 2023 at 16:16
No, I’m quite sure he and his lawyers tried to contest the election. I’m not sure he did so fraudulently. The claims that he did so knowingly and frau...
August 03, 2023 at 15:58
I guess the insurrection hoax can be put to bed. That was the crime people were told he committed, believed he committed, only to have it all fall apa...
August 03, 2023 at 15:42
Jack Smith admits he lied. He failed to turn over all evidence to Trump's legal team as required by law and falsely claimed that he had. Ouch. https:/...
August 02, 2023 at 23:35
Not only that but they’ll have to prove the statements were false. Maybe we’ll finally get some thorough and unbiased investigations into the matter.
