And a dangerous precedent.


For most of my life, I believed in traditional values like “win graciously”, “lead by example”, “be above that”.

These radical Socialists have completely blown by precedents over and over again.

When the worm turns (and I believe it will) they’ll have what’s coming to em ten-fold I hope and they’ll only have themselves to thank.

There is ZERO room in this country for radical leftism and it’s a movement that needs to be eradicated completely.

When you are getting deposed about tax and finance stuff that is super complicated, and hard for laymen to understand, you should always take the fifth. It is so easy for prosecutors to make statements about complex topics incriminatory.

The point that some are raising is that the exercise of that right (in most states) creates a negative inference that can be presented to a jury in the civil case.

The NORMAL way to "get around" that problem is for the Defendant to ask for an abatement of the civil action, until completion of the criminal case. This situation is unusual, in that no criminal case has yet been filed (of which I am aware), and you will have a hard time convincing a judge in a civil proceeding that he should abate all proceedings in his pending case, because you think that some jurisdiction somewhere MIGHT be considering the filing of a criminal action.

The judge would laugh at you.

That leaves you with having to CHOOSE whether to accept that negative inference in the civil case, in exchange from protecting yourself in a later, still-hypothetical criminal proceeding.

Trump was put in a tough position.

If any of us ignored a subpoena and blatantly destroyed evidence, we'd be locked up. We wouldn't have allies at the top of the FBI and doj pretending to be mind readers and using their weight to declare it wasn't our intent to break the law. Hillbitch had a massive team.

FBI tried to make us believe hillbitch and her team were just bumbling bumpkins who didn't know they weren't allowed to ignore subpoenas and destroy evidence.

Yeah. I remember you clamoring for Hillary to be arrested just like it was yesterday.



If serious we finally agree on something though. DC should be razed to the ground.

Yeah this was before the Feds went completely nuts and now the rules have changed...look at how fast they have changed as well. This is not a good thing, even though you probably think it is.

That was when there was a justice system. The justice system today is a wing of the radicalized DNC.

So the cowardly jackass Dem FBI searched his home when he wasn't there...........why do it without him there?



Answer: If they were Dem men, they're cowards and have been all of their lives.

I totally agree with you. The Uniparty is robbing us blind and has been for decades.

Oh. Never mind. You're another Groomer that pretends to be a moderate, when reality is you are just as much of a Nazi as those you hate. As much as I can't stand Trump, the way DC treats him only confirms what I already knew. Trump would be the only one to go if you and your ilk had your way.
