Trump Vow: I'll Run From Prison If Convicted

Well at least the moustache is gone in this image.
The moustache was really gross.

Not at all.
Both halves of the country have a right to try to elect their choice of candidate.
The republicans are not trying to deprive the democrats of their candidate, as the democrats are trying to do.
You campaign and get votes.
You do not illegally impeach or indict in order to prevent voting.

The republicans are choosing their leaders, despite their character or suitability. They learned they can win if they run a complete grifter like George Santos.

Former President Donald Trump on Friday promised that if he is convicted of a crime and sentenced to prison, he will continue to run for president.

John Fredericks, the host of a pro-Trump talk show, asked the 2024 candidate whether a conviction resulting in a prison sentence would “stop” his bid for a second term.

“Not at all. There’s nothing in the Constitution to say that it could,” Trump replied. “Even the radical left crazies are saying, ‘No, that wouldn’t stop!’ And it wouldn’t stop me either.”

Legally speaking, Trump is correct. The most famous example of an incarcerated person running for president is Socialist Party nominee Eugene V. Debs. Debs received nearly 1 million votes in 1920 while he was imprisoned for his opposition to World War I.

It is unclear what would happen if Trump won while incarcerated, however, since there is no precedent for that occurring in a major federal election. Some scholars have suggested that he could pardon himself immediately upon taking office.

Trump Vows To Run For President From Prison If Convicted

“There's nothing in the Constitution" to bar his campaign from proceeding, Trump noted.

Wow, wouldn't that be something - a convicted criminal running for president. I can't imagine what the rest of the world must think of us. I think that Trump must know that he will be convicted. The founding fathers never anticipated a Donald Trump. What do you think?

I think that most of DC are already criminals.

 

[Rigby5]

I believe our enemies will go all out to interfere in the election through social media and forums like this one, to help Trump, and through that bring about utter chaos, and even civil war in America.

After all, I can't believe that many loyal Americans would think it's a good idea to divide the nation.

As bad at Trump is, Biden is about 100 times worse.
Biden was party to the illegal Maidan takeover and illegal war started by us in the Ukraine.

An impeachment that does not then get validated by a conviction, is itself a crime.

Where do you get such stupid ideas?

Does not matter.
What the democrats are doing by lying about crimes, is 100 times worse.
There is not a single crime Trump is actually guilty of.

Biden was a party?

Here we go with claiming the VP is really in charge of American policy.

So how's Vice President Harris doing with the economy, and the expansion of NATO?

 

[Rigby5]

Where do you get such stupid ideas?

That is an obvious fact.
If you claim something is true, and put everyone through the trial, then if it can't be proven, it was wrong to bring it up in the first place.

There is absolutely no possible doubt, that Trump did nothing wrong with his call to Zelensky.
We all heard it.
Yet clearly what Biden did in the Ukraine was absolutely and completely illegal.
We all heard him threaten the Ukraine in order to illegally prevent an investigation of Burisma Holdings.

Obviously the bagman in the 2014 Ukraine was Hunter, so then obviously Joe Biden was very likely guilty, since he was the one who also made the illegal extortion demands in order to protect Hunter.

Your problem is that your accusations have no basis in any actual evidence. You declare democrats guilty of crimes they haven't even been charged or indicted for.

Meanwhile you ignore republicans charged, indicted, and even convicted of serious crimes, and claim it doesn't matter.

This very thread is all about Trump being convicted of multiple felonies, and continuing to run for president.

And republicans supporting that idea.

The state chooses who they prosecute. Ninety percent of DC could be jailed by the standards being applied to Trump.

You really love Putin that much. Someone who murders his political opponents in order to stay in power?
And sacrifices his own people like cannon fodder.

If you think Putin is actually the source of power and not just a front man, then you really do not understand how things work.

If you claim something is true, and put everyone through the trial, then if it can't be proven, it was wrong to bring it up in the first place.

Then you believe it was wrong to bring O.J. Simpson to trial?

Start with that.

I see the evidence against the democrats and the republicans, and it is easy to tell that the democrats obviously are guilty.
For example, the Maidan coup, the Ukraine kickbacks, the verbal extortion over congressional funding, the illegal weapons stockpiling, etc.
That is all proof of guilt by democrats.
That fact there are not indictments or impeachments, only makes if vastly worse, in that the democrats have illegally prevented even the slightest investigation of the Ukraine.

As for the indictments and impeachments of republicans, they are proof of guilt by those making the indictments and impeachments.
There has not be a single shred of legal basis for the impeachments or indictments.
So the democrats have crossed the line to the worst threat the entire country has ever faced.

 

[Rigby5]

Then you believe it was wrong to bring O.J. Simpson to trial?

Start with that.

Yes, absolutely it was wrong to bring OJ to trial.
There was zero evidence, and it would likely have been impossible for him to have moved that quickly to meet the actual timeline we know happened.
Those involved in the OJ prosecution should be fired and likely prosecuted for their obvious misconduct.

You are out right lyng

You have no evidence whatsoever that Biden was invo;ved

Putin styarted this war we did not

Do you really believe pulling this stupid shit out of your ass makes you look smart?

there was massive evidence and the time line was EASY to be accomplished

 

[Kilroy2]

I find that acceptable. Run for president from the safety of a prison cell.

I hope his cell mate is a big burly guy. He will protect him and do other things to him. I can't say what as this is a family oriented message board.

 

[Kilroy2]

If things go like they might with his Cult Followers going insane, Supermax can take care of it.

I hope they jail him in a state with a lot of his supporters so that they can visit often and go thru the random body searches.

 

[Vrenn]

When the democrats start taking the serious charges against Potato and Crackboy serious... I'll start taking charges against Trump seriously

Does that mean that you still won't take the Rumpster charges seriously when they start convicting him?
