Trump has had criminal investigations for the past 40 years. Why do republicans pretend he is innocent on all of them?

[Billy000]

To be clear, I don’t necessarily believe he’s guilty on everything in the past 4 decades, but that kind of objectivity is not mirrored by republicans it seems.

I’ll just ask this to republicans: do you believe that Trump has been guilty of at least ONE criminal offense allegation in the past 40 years that the article describes or is he completely innocent of those specific allegations? Keep in mind that he wasn’t involved in politics as late as 12 years ago so the persecution excuse won’t work.

Don’t do the “but Biden!” thing in your answer. Just straight up answer the question.

Trump's potential indictment caps decades of legal scrutiny

For 40 years, former President Donald Trump has navigated a flurry of legal investigations without ever facing criminal charges. That record may soon come to an end.

40 years of criminal activity, and not one night in jail?

He's got a better record than Capone.

 

[LAUGHatLEFTISTS]

F of leftist. Nobody’s going bro validate your feelings. You psychos are bringing up the charges. Prove it or STFU.

Well obviously white collar criminals easily get away with crimes. Like if you think a guy making 30k a year is just as vulnerable as a rich guy you are quite naive.

That’s a fact. The leftists hate facts.

When you're a billionaire, there are going to be many people who want to steal your money.

And they will go to great lengths to do it.

Funny how the left talk about how corrupt Trump is, yet he has never served time for any criminal activity.

Because they’re as dishonest and as corrupt as Trump.

Setting aside your false alternatives, I believe that almost every person in the U.S. who has been an adult for the past 40 years has not complied with some law or regulation. Do you claim otherwise?

Why do they let him get away with crime?

they should put trump in the same jail where Hunter Biden and HIllary are doing their time

I don't believe anyone views him as an angel, I just beleve most realize that others have done as much or worse, especially within givernment, wihout any consequences. People despise unfair hypocrisy.

You make a fair point, but I’m talking about these specific allegations. He can’t be innocent of all of them.

 

[Billy000]

He can afford good lawyers and a guy making 30k can’t.

For what? Just because the trump cult shouted "LOCK HER UP!" is not evidence.

Now look who may be Locked Up....

If there is a solid case of crime, good lawyers don't matter.

Do the prosecutors not have good lawyers?

Lol of course good lawyers matter. Air tight cases can be overturned because of simple technicalities that a good lawyer can sniff out.

 

[Silent Warrior]

Probably for the same reason Democrats refuse to accept all the evidence against the Clintons and Biden. Both parties are corrupt and both sets of partisan hacks accept their side's excuses and no others. One coin, two sides.

But but but but.....trump...the first twice impeached and indicted former president. Kinda gives you shivers...don't it?

Wait...or was he "indicated."

How many were dismissed with a fine?

How many were thrown out of court because they were bullshit charges?

How many were dropped because of lack of evdence?
