Nobody is taking Trump to court, want to bet? They would be exposed. If they use the arrested people’s statements, Trump would have the right to show what he said was not fabricated. It’s law.



He doesn’t have that right in someone else’s trial.

At his own trial of course.

Then how Mr Tiger is he exposed to more legal risk? What "Damning Case?"

Bring ANYTHING using that against him and he gets to defend himself.

Bet they don’ t push a trial in Senate. Country is freaked up enough. Dems would really be pushing it to the edge. They know limitations. All a shite show. All for show.

I would imagine it would open up the possibility of Trump suing each and every individual that implicated him.

I wonder if a defamation attorney is available for hire? If that were to pass, this could get interesting as Trump could defend his actions / speech on the 6th AND present evidence to support his claims that were stated in the speech. The next question is, would there be litigants from the 7 swing states involved, and if so, could Trump sue them in their home state?

I would say Trump in that case isn’t exposed to anything

Sucks for the prosecutors who will have to present a case that insists the defendant(s) WEREN'T misled by misinformation, but in fact acted on their own accord. That's quite the conundrum for the prosecution.

No laches. No standing. The whole country watching. You mention that in his impeachment and he can defend himself.

The attorney he just hired specializes in ELECTION LAW. If Trump really does have the goods, they can't stop him, he can make his case before the American People, and the Dems can STFU and watch.

What will they say in rebuttal..nuh uh? The Goobers they have for impeachment managers are partisan hacks..not good
attorneys. They might be walking into a buzzsaw. You think Pencil Neck Schiff and that crew are convincing? Hell no.

I get what you're saying, but isn't it true that if they cite him personally he could be called as a witness? Thanks for the post.

Which would mean, again, if they cite him personally, these cases will be dismissed. The end result is that the entire country is now fully aware the election fraud happened. Or Trump gets to submit evidence. Or he sues their arse off for defamation and it all gets dropped in the next trial.

If they weren't afraid of this happening they wouldn't have denied evidentiary hearings 50 times.

What a clown post.

You’re assuming the courts have a political agenda and not just standards you need to meet to bring a lawsuit.

If the defense is booming Trump they won’t call him. They’re cute public statements and things like thatZ

So it would be up to the prosecution to call Trump.

Realistically I think The prosecutions stance is going to be: that’s not a defense. You committed a crime. Whether or not someone told you to do it doesn’t change that.

Don't confuse fear with basic courtroom standards and competence

If he had a boom, we would have seen it. He didn't.

You don’t know shite. Nobody does.

He may have nothing, or he may be waiting for an opportunity to present itself that is more favorable to him. To act as though you know makes you look foolish.
