Nothing says hypocrisy like a convicted criminal screaming about how bad the crime is in his own city.
Except, perhaps, that same convicted criminal accusing innocent immigrants of being criminals and mentally disturbed.
Yes, the GOP is sending their worst, straight out of jails and mental institutions.
@@fionaanderson5796 I don't see Trump murdering anyone, Biden?
Do you expect a pathological liar and sociopath to e concerned with consistency of his statements? Duh
🎯🎯🎯
I hope that Bob is right that these convictions will be a turning point in all this MAGA craziness.
For some. There's still some who are so far entrenched in the cult,they'll need deep deprogramming . Was listening to PBS and they talked to several target groups. For the most part they said they wouldn't vote for 45. They'd either not vote at all,or vote for Biden. One man,from Georgia (54yrs) gave all the talking points 45's been harping on forever. It's all political, no evidence,crooked judge....sounded like 45 himself talking. Those are the deeply entrenched that worry me.
Religions free persons from taking responsibility of their doing: "It's God's will." And so the MAGA-people: It's Trumps will. No responsibility for my doing and thinking. VOTE BLUE to stop this mania!!
It seems the supposed august members of our Congress on the right are absolutely nuts instead. Truly embarrassing and shocking.
I hope so , but I don’t believe it will .
Keep hoping. Never underestimate the power of stupidity. The trump cult is profoundly ignorant and unwilling or unable to look at facts and rather operate on emotion. This country is doomed.
Narcissists do not apologize or admit to wrong doing even while they’re doing it.
Exactly!! They don't ever apologize!!
Was going to say the same about narcissists. There is a reason why they do not admit to wrong doing or to being wrong. And that is that their self is built up on falseness, many layers of falseness. One admission of being wrong and they think the whole superstructure will collapse and they will be outed and discovered to be nothing but an ordinary person, something they are deeply ashamed of. They can’t just be an ordinary person, they have to be seen as extraordinary. This is why it doesn’t matter what his policies are. Or it’s not about his policies. He is an exceedingly dangerous person to give such power to. Such a person will destroy everything to avoid being exposed. Thing is, we already see it. Most people do. He’s clinging to those who want to believe in the fantasy of his greatness. The reality is orange paint, hair plugs, obesity, average IQ, limited emotional development, huge amounts of unresolved personal issues, inherited wealth, fake TV reality show, cheating on spouses, near constant lying, fake Christianity. He is utterly incapable of uniting this country.
Yes. In the act of wrong doing they will look at you and explain why the rules don’t apply to them. Hopefully the spell of Trump exceptionalism will finally be broken!

Not really because he still has supporters and idiots kissing his butt in Congress and SCOTU
You got that right! Others who replied suggesting Trump’s death would end it, probably are thinking wishfully; he will be like Charles de Gaulle or Napoleon, influencing a generation or more. Such a shame.
VOTE BIDEN OR WE WILL BE STUCK WITH THE TRUMPS FOREVER ! 🗳💙💙💙
Lock him up.

POLITICAL HIT JOB!
CNN Senior Legal Analyst Describes How The Trump Conviction Was A Political Hit Job
1. "The judge donated money... in plain violation of a rule prohibiting New York judges from making political donations-to a pro-Biden, anti-Trump political operation."
2. Alvin Bragg boasted on the campaign trail in an overwhelmingly Democrat county, “It is a fact that I have sued Trump over 100 times.”
3. "Most importantly, the DA’s charges against Trump push the outer boundaries of the law and due process."
4. "The charges against Trump are obscure, and nearly entirely unprecedented. In fact, no state prosecutor - in New York, or Wyoming, or anywhere - has ever charged federal election laws as a direct or predicate state crime, against anyone, for anything. None. Ever."
5. The DA inflated misdemeanors past the statute of limitations and "electroshocked them back to life" by alleging the falsification of business records was committed 'with intent to commit another crime.'
6. "Inexcusably, the DA refused to specify what those unlawful means actually were - and the judge declined to force them to pony up - until right before closing arguments. So much for the constitutional obligation to provide notice to the defendant of the accusations against him in advance of trial."
7. "In these key respects, the charges against Trump aren’t just unusual. They’re bespoke, seemingly crafted individually for the former president and nobody else."
8. "The Manhattan DA’s employees reportedly have called this the “Zombie Case” because of various legal infirmities, including its bizarre charging mechanism. But it’s better characterized as the Frankenstein Case, cobbled together with ill-fitting parts into an ugly, awkward, but more-or-less functioning contraption that just might ultimately turn on its creator."

I wonder if Woodward back in 1974, when Nixon resigned, could imagine that fifty years later we'd be in an even worse situation.
If Nixon had faced punishment instead of a pardon, it would have set an example forward
At least Nixon had the respect to RESIGN!
Nixon had SOME contact with reality
I can’t imagine the sea change he has witnessed. What Nixon did is so tame compared to attempting to overthrow the government AND is the presumptive GOP nominee.
@@user-zd2uv3ss9z Not really, he was told to resign or get impeached. Today's GOP won't stand up against Trump.

Bob Woodward just said "The Emperor has no clothes." At least that's what the jury said.

He also did not feel the civil rights violations of trump by the fbi for spying were relevant even though he blew up the Nixon claims. The guy is biased and his opinions worthless at this point.

Wait until his upcoming mental breakdown. The closer we get to his sentencing, the more freaky and desperate Trump is going to behave. Until he finally goes completely mental.
Good luck with that, trump will never ever do anything like that. He's a one track minded individual period.

No remand on appeal.
Would be hilarious if he gave him jail time for further criminal contempt whether or not he gets the hoosgow for stealing the election in 2016
By July it will be more than 2 additional gag violations
He has not demonstrated a desire to actually treat Trump like everyone else. In fact, he has said he didn't want to punish him since he was the President and could be again. Evidenced by his leniency with the 10 gag order violations. That made me sad.

BOB WOODWARD WHAT AN ICON TO TALK ABOUT TRUMP
Don’t pardon Trump! It was a mistake to pardon Nixon- BUT at least he resigned and had some contrition. He needs to be held accountable for the insurrection, dereliction of duty, and for his failure to accept election results. We need to clean house of all who supported the insurrection. That means you- Jordan, Gosar, Jeni Thomas/Clarence Thomas, Tuberville, Cruz, and so forth.
No one is going to. Only Biden could. I would exile him. Make leave the country and never come back. Where do you think he'd go?
@@larindanomikosBiden can't pardon state crimes. Only the governor of the state can. Democratic governor, I do believe, and she's not a fan of 45's!
@@larindanomikosnot a great idea. Wannabe despots should not be left with their voice intact. Even if they make him sign an agreement to where he’d never run for office in exchange for his freedom, his voice is too strong. He is still influential over Republicans in congress and he’s a civilian !
Life long Republican here. I remember Nixon and Watergate well. What I saw leading up to and on 6 January and since made Nixon look like a school playground disturbance. Donald Trump is the biggest RINO ever. He hijacked the Republican party with his MAGA -ots and continues to destroy it through intimidation of anyone in the party who sees and speaks the truth.
