    Definitely Trump's pattern of behavior.
    Ralston did testify before the Georgia GJ .
    iirc: Ralston replied with he'll do everything in his power to do what is appropriate?
    He didn't say that he legally can't, maybe he was being diplomatic, I assume he was aware of the fake elector loons,

    According to 2 articles I found, no, states don't have the power to overturn a presidential election.

    Ali Alexander just couldn't help himself and had to give a suggestion.
    I think the great,great majority of these fools have no intention of showing up anywhere and are imbeciles to make any type of threat knowing that the feds are watching and will track them down and knock-knock-

    "Earlier on Saturday morning, “Stop the Steal” leader Ali Alexander suggested “100,000 patriots” should “shut down all routes to Mar-a-Lago.”

    Despite publicly calling for action to take place, Alexander said he wouldn’t be participating in such an event.

    Likewise, Alexander claimed on Telegram to have spoken to far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones—who also expressed zero interest in organizing another protest in the name of Trump.

    “He’s not protesting either,” he added of Jones. “We’ve both got enough going on fighting the government. No billionaire is covering our bills.”:roflol:

    Yes, amazing that @Izzy can't see how there can be no basis for the indictment, which Trump announced was coming.

    And amazing that @The Mello Guy , who I see you've also been trying to help, doesn't see that Trump is blameless, of anything.

    And amazing that the DA is not as knowledgeable as you, so has wasted all this time & effort, called in witnesses, and all for something, that is impossible to charge.

    Even more amazing, that none of the MSM-- who've been covering the story, and which each has its own legal experts-- have comprehended, what you grasp, with such facileness.


    With the frequency that you correct others' errors, it is a wonder that it is not thoroughly understood, that your own assurance of anything, is all one need to be confident, they have been set straight. I don't know what is wrong with the lot of us, at PF, not discarding all of our our thoughts, whenever you point to them, as mistaken.

    Maybe you should set your sites on a more elite group. If you were to direct some of your counsel towards news outlets, and politicians, how long could it really be, before you are nationally known and respected, for your infallible pronouncements? I was about to add that you would, naturally, be in high demand, as an expert guest & commentator, on many issues-- but why settle for that? I bet your own show, would soon eclipse even Tucker Carlson's, in the ratings. And when that happens, boy, will all of us feel stupid, for not trusting everything you say, implicitly!

    So you are disappointed, that you don't foresee some impending, armed conflict, with police?

    Is that Kari Lake, tidying up?
    I'm sure it will be worth her trouble, if she is hoping to get groped.

    That does raise a hell of a question. Could we lock up an ex president? With all they know, all our secrets? Seems pretty risky. Trading too secret Intel to not get raped in the shower?

    Trump will "milk" this for every thing and penny he can. His supporters have probably increased their contributions to him........

    H e will spin it..... to a dizzying degree , sensationalize it......and remain in the media.......which is all he wants.

    what is tragic is that he Knows what he is doing and to whom......... and probably laughs at the gullibility of his cult.

    He is asking his cult to PROTEST, PROTEST,, PROTEST........on his social media so one can expect a lot of drama and sensationalism and maybe riots

    We have already seen a sampling of how far some will go for their "dear leader"

    and Trummp would "sell" to the highest bidder.........as he has no ethical/ moral character. Plus he alrady thinks like a criminal and how to get away with whatever it is he wants. He has no boundaries.......except those defined by him.

    I hope that if he is arrested there will be mass protests. Apparently, Arresting a political opponent will first be done by democrats. May as well sign up to be Russian.

    Interesting that you mention Russia......as Putin has an arrest warrant out for him now . Trump admires Putin.......and now he too might be arrested.

    One current leader and one previous / plus wanna be again leader.......A curious world situation.......

    You mean Joe Manchin.

    From recently hearing him talk, I would not consider Sununu, moderate enough.

    Glenn Youngkin, I don't think will run. He has no record of achievement, yet, in Virginia, as far as I know.

    Check out that thread, by American Nationalist, on Tim Scott. Nevermind, the search function didn't find it, for me (unless I had made a typo); A.N. hadn't really known much about him, anyway. I don't remember the specifics, anymore, but IIRC, he struck me as a loser.

    I just looked up his recent voting record, and I don't see anything that would qualify him as "moderate." He voted against all these bipartisan bills: the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act; against the Chips & Science Act; against the 2022 Consolidated Appropriations Act; against the Continuing Appropriations to fund the government, and Supplemental Ukraine Appropriation Act; against the Respect for Marriage Act; against the Postal Reform Act; against the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (which I think was Police Reform); against the Extending Government Funding and Delivering Emergency Assistance Act; and against the Electoral Count Reform and Presidential Transition Improvement Act.

    If you go to Ballotpedia, you can read the text if each of these pieces of legislation, as well.

    I believe New York State passed a law, which suspended the passing of any time, towards any criminal statute of limitations, during any period when the person in question is serving as President, and so is unindictable. The statute is actually about to run out, now, for Trump.

    Or, possibly, I don't know-- Elon is wrong, about something?

    Actually, though, I agree that, unless a conviction here, would disqualify him from holding future elected office, this particular offense does not seem worth the trouble.

    I like Walter Sobchak's avatar: a picture of what looks like Trump, dressed as Mussolini, labelled "Assolini."

    Why would you expect more from others, than you do, from yourself?
