Donald Trump: Classic or Dud?

kid just walked down the street delivering the news like an old time newsboy

EXTRA! EXTRA!

lol at all the folks posting pictures of athletes wearing “34” on their jerseys

i've been in work meetings through this entire thing and it was impossible to pay attention to zoom

Chadwick Tromp needs to change his uniform number to 34

america is over. it's not really fair for someone whose parents were as rich as 2scoops' to pretend juries legit are a thing :(

This decision is a disgrace to the rule of law and our Constitution.

Dems invented a felony to "get Trump," with the help of a Soros funded prosecutor and a Biden donor Judge, who rigged the entire case to get this outcome.

This isn't justice, it's election interference.

boo hoo go cry about it to stormy daniels you fuckin loser

Someone please drop a piano on that guy's head

election interference, weird, who else has done that?

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/30/opinion/trump-trial-defense.html makes a good point that flooding the zone with shit doesn’t work as a trial strategy

lol

Crazy that George Soros is paying the prosecutor's salary, someone should look into that

I just think it's funny that an alpha male like Donald Trump needs to

1) go around paying off his girlfriends not to talk shit about him
2) do it in the stupidest, most illegal possible way
3) get caught
4) get convicted on 34 felony counts
5) whine and cry about it like a little baby

29 more to go

I’m going out tonig by

Er tonight

how independent were the 34 counts. was it realistically/logically possible for someone to be guilty of some and not all? or was it always a kind of all or nothing thing?

im watching cable news and there were multiple lawyers on there who said they were thinking that if he was convicted it would not be on all the charges, guess the evidence was a little stronger on some than others, one also said its common for hold outs on juries to trade their votes for not guiltys on some of the charges

That is what I was saying about how some checks as part of the falsification and cover-up were signed by him and some were not.

It appears the jury saw through that

how is Scott Adams taking this?

He could probably shoot himself on Fifth Avenue and nobody would care.

I think we’re going to see a lot of folks say something along the lines of “When the verdict came out I said I just can’t vote for a convicted felon, but then I saw a liberal smile and…”

Love the replies

Here's what I'm wondering: does this conviction lead the judge in his Florida case to let that trial roll forward, figuring that he's already been tagged once, so what's the point of continuing to stand in front of him yelling "You leave my boyfriend alone, you big meanies!"?

Idk who that is

Xp

resistance twitter guy

today we are all jeff even though he blocked me

xxxp

No. I think the Florida case (the most easily provable and most significant) is a lost cause at this point

Mm, wouldn't go that far.

if house arrest, does it have to happen in NY?

xp

Cannon is slow-walking it in the guise of being cautious, is how I see it. I don't think she's stupid.

I get really sick of seeing her picture with that vacant smile

I think this a good article about her from a reporter for the NYT who doesn't seem to be really able to express his opinion (gifted)

pretty funny the range of opinion on cable news as to whether this is bad for trumps political outlook runs from no to wait and see, i think its bad for him personally

Dud

If Morbs had been alive, he'd be quashing our enthusiasm, bless'em.

Who knows how this will impact his chances but for right now I’m gonna enjoy the same peaceful easy feeling I had each time he got his ass indicted.

Negronis for everyone!

you know there will be some (attempted) retribution via Hunter Biden or something, some judge in Biloxi will issue an arrest warrant tomorrow morning, sure as shit

Negronis for everyone!

I saw this post and knew who it was before my eye caught the sig <3

Tonight my martini pitcher awaits ILXers

I whipped up a martini right after the verdict dropped.

X-post
I made a Negroni in your honor. I haven't yet acquired the taste, but....

I can’t believe you guys are not drinking Dark ‘n’ Stormys. Have some respect!

Tbh I’m not either, I’m having Aviations w/ Plymouth gin.

New York is a liberal shit hole
