All you rich people who think you can break any law you want, let this be a
warningroadmapAnd don’t be thinking you can just get away with it either.
You will also be congratulated for doing so, and maybe even rewarded.
Andrew Tate just started his own political party… He’s following the roadmap
Not that I expected anything but this, but I’ll repeat what I said when Merchan announced the sentencing delay until after the election,
Fucking pussies…
He should resign, clearly he’s not fit for his position if he’ll allow himself to be intimidated into inaction.
The rule of law means that no one is above the law, not even the president. If the president is above the law then we do not have the rule of law. Being labeled a felon is the idea of a punishment, but since there are no consequences to this sentencing there is no punishment.
At least imposing a fine would have been consistent with precedent. At that point it would have been an issue with our laws being to lenient. That would have been a much more easily remedied problem than doing away with the rule of law, a founding concept of modern western civilization.
The rule of law was dead when the Supreme Court ruled presidents have immunity for core constitutional responsibilities and presumed immunity for official acts in Trump v. United States. This is another nail in the coffin.
we must be respectful of the office of the presidency
Why do we have to be when he wasnt?
Yeah it’s crazy. To me, respect for the presidency keeping it crime-free. People committing crimes in pursuit of the presidency or while in its office should be harshly prosecuted, not let off.
Ha ha ha, this country is a fucking joke on every level.
Ha ha ha 😭
Judge Merchan is a fucking coward.
Probably because maga has started killing people.
I get that there was basically no chance that a sitting president was going to jail. But it’s not like making him pay a fine would have caused a constitutional crisis.
About the only good thing I can say about this is that it’s at least being honest about the complete lack of consequences.
If he had been fined, do you think he’d actually pay it? And what then? You can’t stick him in jail to make him pay it.
I think this was the real reason behind the decision. Any governmental punishment is ultimately backed by a threat of jail/prison for non-compliance, but if you can’t do that to the president, then he can just ignore it anyway.
It could just be that the fine would have been disturbingly low, and by fining that amount it would actually be more embarrassing than waving their hands and saying no punishment for supreme leader.
We had a contest at my blog, predict the punishment Trump will get (not deserve). People guessed parole and fines and suspended sentences, and I’ve always predicted Trump would get no meaningful punishment, but I’ve never even heard of being “sentenced” to “unconditional discharge.” Basically, sentence to no sentence at all.
Wow, it is sure good to be white and rich and connected in America.
The system is working as intended.

Mario, perhaps?
Copies are obviously the Waluigeon
Cause the weenymunch judge pussed out on his judicial duties
Fuck off with this president bullshit is above the law. God our country is so fucked. Can’t believe we rebeled against England for this shit.
“You see, it actually said ‘No! Taxation without representation!’”
I certainly hope the 1st World countries will not allow a convicted felon to cross their border.
Failed state says what?
I’m pretty certain that after this stern warning he learned his lesson
Was he under oath for his remarks? Stated that he won the popular vote by millions.
