In 2020, one side thinks the GOP was trying to overthrow the government (which I think is a crime) and the other side thinks the election was fraudulent (which I think is also a crime).
We have the information and tools to definitively establish which viewpoint is correct and who should go to prison. We've done the recounts and seen all the evidence available on potential election fraud, and that issue has seen its day in court.
But the other side? Apparently there are thousands of documents from Trump's lawyers that still have never seen the light of day. The ones we have seen are clearly pressuring state legislators and election officials to unilaterally reverse the outcome of free/fair elections. That's gotta be illegal right? Why are the remaining documents still hidden from investigators after more than 2 years? I would think even the trumpiest Trumpster would want to see what was going on behind closed doors to keep Trump in power.
Why does this stuff take so long to investigate?
@wildgrass saidYou don't think Trump is above the law, do you? Neither do I.

The problem is that half of America thinks he IS above the law. That is why it's taking so long. They protect him at all costs including the loss of their own integrity.
@suzianne saidI don't even care about Trump. Let's leave him out the equation for now. He had hundreds of minions who were apparently breaking laws left and right. Organizing. Plotting. Drafting legal documents. All in an attempt to overthrow the government. Can we get to those folks first?

@wildgrass saidYes, absolutely.

And people like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Josh Hawley are calling those people "political prisoners".
@suzianne saidI mean, they can call them political prisoners if they want. The emails are pretty clear. In the absence of voter fraud evidence they were trying to retain executive power for a president who lost the election. I think its pretty accurate to call that a coup.
Yes, absolutely.

Edit: I'll just add that if the emails we've seen already are quite damning, and there are still thousands of others that lawyers are refusing to hand over, what do you think is on the other emails they don't want you to see?
@wildgrass saidWhy aren't you fellers worried about the future of the United States of America? Trump, Abortion, Trump , Abortion. Funny that that interests you, but the Minute to Minute of all the hell that happens minute to minute, no problem.

Y'all have at it, I promise not to taint this important post.
@AverageJoe1
You have fully taken the Trump koolaid so you will NEVER realize how toxic Trump is and will be to American democracy. You act like we should just ignore Trump even though he is the one who started all this crap with supposed election fraud.
Remember, before Trump election fraud was NEVER an issue.
Tell me why it is now.
Trump is egging on the Trump wannabies and it is EXTREMELY toxic to the fate of our democracy, like dudes winning primaries WHILE THEY ARE IN JAIL.
Do you ignore that too?

How exactly how are legal documents illegal?
@jj-adams saidLol it's possible for lawyers to do illegal things.
"He had hundreds of minions who were apparently breaking laws left and right. Organizing. Plotting. Drafting legal documents. All in an attempt to overthrow the government."
How exactly how are legal documents illegal?
The house select committee outlined dozens of examples already, and again, we're short thousands of documents that lawyers are refusing to turn over.
@averagejoe1 saidBecause in the future someone who loses an election might be able to try the same thing and succeed.

@sonhouse saidHow is our fate going under Biden, Sonhouse? Do you know that yesterday, being asked if he was hurting people, he answered "I'mnot hurting people, I'm helping people'.

Make yourself useful and back him up, keep it interesting. Or, assume we all read every word of your thousands of Trump screeds. His travails are in the news for all to see. My questions are about unknowns, to project what we think. Geez
@suzianne saidFunny you notice it when it's Trump,, but you are totally blind to HRC being above the law - her and her FBI minions.

@earl-of-trumps saidBut what you are positing is that she is guilty of some crime.

She's not.
He is.
@suzianne saidWell i’ll Be dammed. And all this time I thought............

@averagejoe1 saidYour thinking is indeed the problem. Better to leave that to people with functioning brains.
