Christie Criticizes Trump's Use of DOJ-Trump Threatens to Use DOJ Against Him

[Papageorgio]

That was your dear leader.

You have something someone actually fixes an election. It won’t happen and has not happened.

President Trump floated the idea of using the DOJ on Truth Social against him after the former governor of New Jersey, a onetime ally, criticized his use of the Justice Department on Sunday's "This Week." On a legal basis I don't see what the federal issue would be, nor what would survive the Statute of Limitations.

Trump threatens to investigate Chris Christie over ‘Bridgegate’​

Trump threatened an investigation against his former ally-turned-foe in a post on the Truth Social platform on Sunday, after watching Christie’s Sunday morning appearance on ABC News’s “This Week.”

“Can anyone believe anything that Sloppy Chris says? Do you remember the way he lied about the dangerous and deadly closure of the George Washington Bridge in order to stay out of prison, at the same time sacrificing people who worked for him, including a young mother, who spent years trying to fight off the vicious charges against her,” Trump wrote in a post.

“Chris refused to take responsibility for these criminal acts,” the president continued. “For the sake of JUSTICE, perhaps we should start looking at that very serious situation again? NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW!”

I take it, then, that "no one is above the law" is something you no longer espouse?

Democrats tried to fix the elections last year and couldn’t. It will back fire but both parties play the same stupid games and American is left with stupid prizes.

The Dems certainly did not, though the GOP tried and failed in 2020.

The American people will reject worthless MAGA next year.

They tried by their go after Trump through the courts and it failed as the majority of Americans saw through it, and no one tried and failed in 2020, only a small majority believed the nonsense.

2026 and 2028 will happen and the world will be fine and whatever outcome there is, will be.

Less than a majority of the vote was for Trump.

If he calls for the NG in IL and NY for a made up nonsense, he will be inviting five million American patriots from right to left to a sleep over with him at the WH.

Less than the majority vote is for any president.

I am barely for Trump having the right to calling in the National Guard in Washington DC and I am certainly against Trump calling in the National Guard in Chicago or New York City.

That doesn’t guarantee I vote for a Democrat in 2028 for president, I have yet to see the Democrats put up a good candidate since Bill Clinton and the Republicans haven’t been any better, the last good President they had was George H. W. Bush, the rest have been terrible,

I believe lots of people are above the law: Trump being one.
Now back to the topic.

Sounds just like Putin, Jinping, and Kim.

Now back to the topic.

In response to the topic, I say that Christie should have known what to expect.

But, as with all Americans, if he committed no crime, he has nothing to worry about.

Right?

That he would be criminally prosecuted?

But, as with all Americans, if he committed no crime, he has nothing to worry about.

Right?

I never said that.

This is the essence of fascism – to use the authority of the state to silence political opponents.

~~~~~~
Obama and Biden opened this Fascist pandora's box.

 

[Doc7505]

Huh, I thought that he had succumbed to Krispy Kreme poisoning.

~~~~~~
Apparently the gastric by-pass operation didn't work out too well...

He's being criminally prosecuted?

I never said that.

Because you're "not a Democrat?"

 

[Zincwarrior]

He's being criminally prosecuted?

Thats what the DOJ does.

 

[FoghornLeghorn]

This is the essence of fascism – to use the authority of the state to silence political opponents.

Like your party masters did to countless Americans?

 

[Seymour Flops]

Thats what the DOJ does.

If he's not being prosecuted, why did you ask about that?
