    Considering how hard it was just to land Trump even close to jail, allowing him free on bail is crazy.

    Are they really trusting his SS detail to keep him tied down? Considering they’ve already broken the law for him by deleting key text messages regarding the Jan 6th event, it’s a fool’s errand to assume they won’t do it again.

    His wrinkly ass deserves to be locked up, and to stay locked up for his actions against the people.

      Politicians of all parties are a caste unto their own. Jailing Trump means they might be next. Trump’s case is a huge psychological hurdle for Americans because you treat your Presidents like Kings. You need to get over it. 3rd worlders and even Europe regularly jail high ranking politicians.

        Oh, I’m not American, I’m just very familiar with American politics due to being terminally online.

        But I agree. Many Americans worship their president like a king, which is odd since America’s whole idea was meant to be to bin off the monarchy.

        We’re just lucky that this kind of president/politician worshipping hasn’t quite become mainstream in Europe yet.

      I know Trump supporters are dumb as rocks, but I’m assuming SS agents are smart enough to know that breaking the law for Trump will only result in themselves going to prison.
