Your links don't say what you claimed, but, regardless, those allegations were while she was in office. Sometimes immunity can exist for illegal/improper acts while in office (not saying Hillary directly, just trying to clear up your previous comment, since you used bad examples).

The MAL crimes are not while DJT was in office, and, specifically, the obstruction-related charges. You tell me what immunity would apply to THOSE allegations.

You can be an arse, or you can give me a bit more info so that I can see what you mean and engage in reasoned discussion.

And this is what I am talking about. You are unable to blame Trump for anything.

They outmaneuvered him from day 1. It had nothing to do with him being "a threat". They saw someone they could do it to, they tried, it worked, so they increasingly took it farther and farther.

Ok. My turn to ask for a link.

Where is the law that mishandling of classified and top secret information is legal while in office… but prosecutable afterwards?

Bonus… and those crimes are non prosecutable after leaving office.

Obstruction was included. Hillary destroyed subpoenaed devices.

Still…. No reasonable prosecutor.

Sorry.. if you are clueless of Comey’s speech to the oversight committee informing them that they were letting Hillary Clinton skate after he sat there and outlined Federal crimes…. Then you are too ill informed to be in the discussion.

By the way. I put that phrase into Google…. And articles explaining galore. Google is pretty good. Your wife should show you how to use it.

Thank you for the context, which is utterly unrelated to our discussion ... hence, my not making the connection between the instant case and your non sequitur.

So, a potential prosecutor in an unrelated case regarding unrelated allegations under unrelated statutes did not favor prosecution of someone in his own party.

Wow. You've just won the internet.

That's not my focus. Those allegations are squishy.

The biggest issue Trump has to face is the set of obstruction of justice allegations from the federal case in Florida.

What about obstruction of justice?

While in office. We are talking about out of office "immunity".

Also the decision to not prosecute HRC isn't precedent or binding, just FYI.

Lol. One case is mishandling of top secret and classified information where the person is of the favored party.

The other case is of mishandling classified information where the person is of the disfavor.

FBI outlined actual violations in both.

Both had actions (wiping server.. destroying evidence under subpoena) after office.

Yea. Absolutely nothing at all in common. I mean.. this is wreckless driving vs attempted murder here. Just nothing there

I believe we are being bullied by a small, but very vocal, minority that has the endorsement of the MSM.
What we will see, and what we are seeing now with the trans narrative, is the dam holding back the opinions of the silent majority beginning to crack.

Which ones? The Clinton ones? The ones Comey outlined and explained? That he explained that she most certainly accessed and shared on a personal server? That are obvious violations of law? Squishy?

Or the Trump ones where he had power to declassify?

Which ones?

That doesn’t apply to evidence that is destroyed while under subpoena or emails while under an evidence preservation order. Since when??

No shite it isn’t binding. It certainly is precedent though…. Precedent of judicial favoritism.

Ive asked once about the link that outlines this when federal laws have been violated on storage, sharing, and access of classified information and top secret information. I seem to be having some trouble getting a response on that.

Oh and remember nO oNe iS AboVE tHe LawWW!

The FBI manufactured evidence against him in coordination with the Democrats. That's not outmaneuvering.

Expecting anyone to be able to stand up to the corrupt power of the United States Federal government is ridiculous.

You are the same guy who is all bent out of shape because Trump's team told some lies when referencing Desantis.

Abuse of the FBI/DOJ, framing a president is outmaneuvering. Being dishonest about a political opponent is unforgivable.

I would assert our "precedence" of 250 years of historic norms in matters such as this is every bit as, if not even much more, important as whatever anyone might think of as being "binding judicial precedent."

Of course, I believe the idea that ANY of this should be looked at in any manner typical of examining "normal judicial proceedings" is as absurd as any part of it, of which all of it certainly is.

Is the GOP fighting back in any way? Going after Democrats for things they've done?

No, we're creaming our pants over a mugshot.

That will work wonders.

Maybe. That has not been determined, legally.

It may not be legally determined until after a conviction (if he's not convicted the prosecution can't appeal that part).

Because you're attempting a non-responsive diversion. Nobody is litigating the HRC case except you (and maybe Hank)

This thread is about what happened to Trump, not Hillary.

That’s what you’re supposed to elect Trump for, he’s got the most motivation to do so. And yes he is fully aware of the absolute necessity of selecting the exactly right Attorney General for this to occur, you can be assured. Someone else with that same level of personal motivation, from being illegitimately attacked himself. For instance a Rudy Giuliani type situation would yield that level of personal motivation.

How would you propose we divvy it up?

Which one(s) should I go after?

Which one(s) will you?
