I'm sure he will answer all the questions at his deposition today since he has said in the past only guilty people take the fifth.

Just in

Former US President Donald Trump has said he declined to answer questions as part of a New York investigation into his family's business practices.

I guess he is guilty according to his past statements about people taking the fifth.

I am 100% certain that the more we look at Trump, the more dirt we'll find. There's no chance that's not true.

DO you really believe there's nothing to the Joe/Hunter Biden thing? Hunter earned all that money legitimately? Joe saying he never spoke to Hunter or his associates about business, that passes the common sense test? The FBI director says it's "very disturbing" the way agents downplayed that story, and obviously the media and big tech conspired to bury that story before the election. None of that concerns you?

Again, I believe Trump is one of the most flawed people in politics today. But when no one ever stops looking into him, and no one begins to look into the Bidens, that sort of predetermines that Trump will look worse, doesn't it?

It's my hope Trump never runs again. Id prefer any one of a handful of Republicans who aren't as insane. But any of them will get the same exact treatment from the media that Trump got. Ask Brett Kavanaugh or the racist Amy Barrett, who adopted 2 black orphans from Haiti, yet somehow she's still a white supremacist.

We never talk remotely honestly about issues anymore, just slinging mud about who is more disgusting.

I presume you're going to say "false equivalence" as always. But I'm on your side and rooting that they get some real dirt on Trump, although we're rooting for that for very different reasons.

Which loons, the same people saying Trump getting raided at Mar-a-Lago will consolidate GOP voters and result in higher turnout are the same people who said that about Roe being overturned and about Trump's first impeachment. Then Trump lost by 7 million votes.
But people were happy……..

If he runs in 2024 and wins, that will be the apex of TDS.

Easy answer, when this crazy mother fu*ker who the GOP worships as their savior, either gets convicted of the crimes he has committed or he decides he won’t run in 24. You may be a sarcastic and snarky bastard, but even you can understand that. Unless of course you are in the crazy camp, thinking Trump actually won and the FBI and DOJ are part of the deep state out to get him.

Is former governor Andrew Cuomo in that crazy camp? Because he said that the DOJ better show it had a good reason for the raid, otherwise they have no credibility.
