stokesjokes wrote: ↑November 18th, 2022, 2:29 pm And to be clear, I'm not saying policy doesn't matter. I'm saying it isn't the only thing. It has become the only thing pretty obviously because valuing character would have cost the Rs an election, and we can't have that. In 2011, Evangelical voters were most likely to say that character matters in their elected leaders. In 2017, they were the least likely to say it. When it would have required sacrifice, it was abandoned.Gay marriage pushed by the democrat party affected that and the need to get conservative judges appointed onto the SC. Trump did that, even with his bad behaviors, bad attitude, bad character, and bad hair. Traditional marriage and life is what brings out conservatives. Trump being the only president to ever address the March for Life rally in person.

I'm sure the republican party will support him even more now. He wants this to happen.I’m not even sure what he did to be indicted was even a crime. There’s a lot of unclear issues involved and previous Prosecutors declined to pursue this because of that ambiguity. This is just a guy going after Trump and saying ‘See? I did SOMETHING “.
thepostman wrote: ↑March 30th, 2023, 8:40 pm I mean it is a crime and why Cohen went down but is the juice worth the squeeze? No. Out of all the legally questionable things he's done his whole career, this seems small.Cohen is why lots of Prosecutors passed on pursuing the case. His credibility is shot.
But he has essentially been begging to be charged because he knows the kind of momentum it'll give him. Which is why I found TH's posts so comical. Trump got exactly what he wanted. The republican party was ready to move on. This brings them back.
I don't think he wins in 24. DeSantis gives Republicans a better shot but Trump doesn't care about that.

You won't find me defending Biden, that's for sure.One of the reason (speculated about) Trump declared for 24 early is so he can now use his PAC funds and Presidential Race War chest to pay for his legal bills. So hold on for the ride. This is the weakest case but here we are. And there’s plenty of time to have the others miraculously get brought in record time
I don't know if there is merit for these charges or not, but out of all of the possible charges looming for Trump these are the weakest. The cases in GA and DC are much stronger. However, at the end of the day it just isn't worth it. I am not a huge DeSantis fan but I was excited that there was finally someone that looked to be ending this Trump love affair with the republican party but this just brings them right back. Which is really strange but I'm done trying to figure that out.

I’m hoping DeSantis runs. I’d rather vote for him than Trump. But I take the Bill Barr stance. Which I believe most people should

You won't find me defending Biden, that's for sure.I don't think anyone should be making the calculation of if its "worth it" or not. If I bought a sports car for $130,000 and falsely claimed it as a business expense, I'd go to jail. If Trump did that here, he should face the same kind of charges and treatment that I would. Power, wealth, and position shouldn't entitle you to a different set of rules.
