quote:

Going back to LBJ (~53 years), there have been 25 years of Democrat presidents, and 28 years of republican presidents.

In the 25 years of D presidents, there have been a total of 3 executive branch officials indicted, with 1 conviction, and 1 prison sentence.

In the 28 years of R presidents, there have been a total of 120 indictments of executive branch officials, 89 convictions, and 34 prison sentences.

Oh yeah, this does not include the Trump presidency which is on pace to set the record.


Is this real? Saw someone share it on FB. How could we go about verifying its accuracy?

If no one brings the charges, there can be no convictions or sentences.
It's easy to see how that is weighted to favor the dems.

If true it reflects on the Ds thinking of their office as a weapon against their political opponents more than anything else.

For socialists what else would you expect.

Most of that time was under a dim house & senate.

Think they’re going to investigate their own?

Now go add up all the Clinton associates who've been indicted over the years.

Greater than the number of people whacked by the Gambino and Genovese Crime Families.
