Trump Administration Predictions (3 Viewers)

[RogerCooper]

And why were they dismissed, and why do you think their absence will result in a weakened system?
I've seen plenty of prosecutors where their absence will make the system stronger.

They were dismissed because the prosecuted cases against violent rioters. Do you expect the criminal justice system to function without prosecutors?

The new US attorney is so incompetent that she has had the case of a man who threw a salami sandwich rejected three times by a grand jury. To quote Judge Wachtler, "You can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich".

 

[Pat Hartman]

(She withdrew the accusation after being paid off).

Of course you would assume that. And I thought the allegation came from her book and was retracted as an overstatement of the event.

What would you say about a Democrat who did and say the same things?

Locker room talk is locker room talk. No one has actually brought charges so talk is talk. Once Trump became President, the accusations all came out of the woodwork and the rumors were spread by the sufferers of TDS.

Please don't think I am defending Trump. The behavior of many men is certainly piggish. I've known enough men like him during my life to be able to say that they all push the limits. Unless there is an actual assault, women have learned to turn the other cheek and avoid the offender in the future. From the men's perspective it seems to be you won't get to first base unless you give it the ol' college try and so they try and try and try until they succeed. Wealthy men who are even moderately attractive succeed more frequently than mere mortals. And Trump was a real "pretty boy" when he was a young stud around town so he cut quite the swath and that turned into ra** accusations later when he became famous. Like the one that went to trial. The woman had no evidence, she couldn't remember when the "assault" happened and her story was straight out of Law & Order and if you had ever shopped the lingerie department in a high end store like the one in the accusation, you would know that it couldn't have happened as she said. Trump being as famous as he was is unlikely to have made it past the perfume without a personal shopper attaching herself to him for starters and no man would ever be allowed to wander alone through the lingerie department handling the merchandise because that would drive away the actual female shoppers. And then he would have had to get into the dressing room, done the dirty deed and gotten out without ever encountering a sales clerk. The story doesn't hold water.

How many times were your advances refused during your younger days when you were actively pursuing women.

Do you expect the criminal justice system to function without prosecutors?

If the prosecutors are going to pick and choose who to prosecute based on political bias. YES.

The new US attorney is so incompetent that she has had the case of a man who threw a salami sandwich rejected three times by a grand jury. To quote Judge Wachtler, "You can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich".

But only if the accused is a Trump supporter.

I know that the attacker used a sub as his weapon but that doesn't matter. It could have been a feather.

 

[RogerCooper]

If the prosecutors are going to pick and choose who to prosecute based on political bias. YES.

Are you saying that the Federal prosecutors should not have charged rioters with assault?

 

[RogerCooper]

Please don't think I am defending Trump.

It certainly sounds like you are. You saying that what women said about Trump doesn't count nor does Trump's own statements.

Your discussion of the Carroll case is interesting, but Trump did not make that defense in court, but instead repeatedly insulted the judge. And Trump had requested a judge-only trial.

By the way, when I was young, I asked women out. I never crudely propositioned a women, paid a women for sex or sexually assaulted a women.

 

[Pat Hartman]

Are you saying that the Federal prosecutors should not have charged rioters with assault?

They should have charged ONLY the violent rioters with assault. They overcharged every Republican who was in the area of the Capitol on that day. They broke the law by getting banks and phone companies to provide location data and the FBI went on a four year search and destroy mission to punish every single Trump supporter they could possibly get to. They even charged people who were not even in DC that day. So you can use all the purple words you want to use but that whole debacle was a travesty of justice. Democrats who loot and destroy buildings and cop cars never even come close to the punishment that was meted out to the Jan 6 protesters. That is not justice as we know it. It was the Democrats picking and choosing who to prosecute and going way overboard in their enthusiasm to get Trump and lead us to four years of overreach by the DOJ in their failed attempts to bankrupt Trump or keep him from running again. It didn't work so just suck it up buttercup.

It certainly sounds like you are. You saying that what women said about Trump doesn't count nor does Trump's own statements.

I am merely pointing out what hatred does to you. When you hate Trump and someone offers you money to charge him with a crime and they then change the laws of the state of NY to make that possible, I don't pay much attention to anything anyone with TDS says. I said that men like him have a tendency to be piggish so that is all the condemnation you're going to get from me since I have no personal story to tell.. The personal stories I could tell are all second hand and show Trump in a positive light.

There are plenty of leftwing prosecutors that the system would function much better without, most of them funded by Soros

 

[Thales750]

We agree both sides are implicated, how would you start?

It's not on my radar. However, this is not a situation where a 21 year old is is having consensual relations with the local 16 year old. This probably involves drugs and soft abductions, maybe even kidnapping, only trials will bring out the facts.

To your question, we have had the best legal system on the planet for 250 years, maybe ending "above the law" might be a good start.

I don't know Isaac, Texas is pretty conservative and Texas justice is lacking on many fronts. Our idiot leaders would rather fund drug cartels than to collect taxes on marijuana.

How stupid is that? But hey, keep them illegals out.

 

[Thales750]

I am merely pointing out what hatred does to you. When you hate Trump...

Well, we certainly know what worship looks like.

 

[Thales750]

I presume you are alluding to me. Too bad you don't know what a dictator is. Trump is simply doing the job of President which is to ensure the safety of the public. The public is not safe in DC and the Mayor and city council are perfectly OK with that. Talk to the city residents to see how they feel about getting their streets back.

Worship on, your little Nuremburg thing is coming. Can't wait to see how many Maga nut cases follow in the footprints their Nazi fore fathers.

 

[Thales750]

The planning system for new housing estate in Britain is similar.
Every site of new houses by law has to contain a specific number of what is referred to as social housing, or affordable homes. The result is that those houses fall into disrepair and are easy to spot You can see £million houses at the start of the estates and further in at the back a group with unkept gardens and an assortment of bikes lying around the front door. But basically the toffs don't want them there and the the don't want to live near the toffs. It is a mess created by numerous committees of politicians.

We have more land than you guys so maybe this wouldn't work there. I think we should build free cities where all you have to do to live there is take semi permanent birth control. After that, all the drugs you want for free. Within a year the landscape around the country would change dramatically.
The cartels would be defunded
The hard cores would be dead, or demobilized.
People would know others that died there, maybe taking the romance out of addiction.
But mostly the regular down on their luck folks would be more welcome in and around town.

I'm not inhuman, we would offer them drug rehab, and send their kids to good foster or adopted homes.

Again with the nazi stuff, the left never seems to learn.

 

[The_Doc_Man]

STOP THAT RIGHT NOW!!!!! That is the kind of rhetoric that gets people killed. See, for example, Charlie Kirk. Accusations of that sort are pure hatred on display for all to see. Think about the penalties for incitement next time you feel the word "Nazi" wanting to come up.

 

[Mike Krailo]

I see the rage baiting is still going on in this thread.

The feds definitely need to follow in the footsteps of most (?) states on the marijuana question.
Here in Arizona you can walk into any pot store and buy marijuana gummies with a drivers license. That should be the case everywhere. Not because I believe it's good for people, but to ensure there are no reasons for a black market - or at least, not any very compelling ones.

Personally, I would support more research into the possibility of handling meth, cocaine and narcotics that way too. In some instances it will cause tragic results where someone might otherwise have not tried it - but in many instances it will save lives, too. Can't quite tell for sure what the net outcome would be, but sending people to prison for possessing tiny amounts of an illegal drug is completely irrational - makes no sense to me at all. It's punishing someone for having an addiction problem.
There are SO many alternative ways it might be handled. For example, you might only punish people who were given the chance to do a drug court type diversion and refused, or refused to honestly finish the program - the possibilities are endless, and we ought to try availing ourselves of some of them

 

[The_Doc_Man]

The most beneficial possibility is quality control. A lot of the deaths attributed to fentanyl were caused by the person taking something else only to find that it had fentanyl in it. Wasn't that the primary drug found by George Floyd's autopsy? (I didn't ask "primary cause of death" - only "primary drug in his system".) Because of his pre-existing heart condition and taking a heavy hit of drugs while trying to hide them, he made himself far more susceptible to officer Chauvin's method of subduing him.

The prosecutors only charged violent rioters with assault. And juries convicted the rioters. The guy who wasn't in DC helped plan the attack. Can you identify the innocent person who was convicted of assault.

Do you think that US prosecutors should have checked how other jurisdictions were dealing with violence before charging people with assault?

The Republican Party needs to stop nominating criminals. In Texas, convicted criminal (and Attorney General) Ken Paxton is leading in the race for the US Senate.

The problem is the government makes everything more expensive.

State Cultivation Tax.
State Retail Excise Tax.
Local Taxes.

A simple $22 dollar transaction could cost you an extra $9-$10 dollars in taxes making your purchase north of $30 dollars. It does however keep the old farts out of the barrio where they might break a hip.

And just who do you think did that? Was it perhaps those "prosecutors" who refuse to prosecute street crime? Even the 19th time a person is arrested for hurting some random stranger. Then he finally kills a "white girl". Now, is it time to prosecute him? Clearly the man is sick. But that doesn't mean you keep releasing him until the crime is so egregious even the Soros prosecutor is prevented from looking away.
