"I don't know if he's been hacked or just completely lost his mind, but by my count Trump has posted or reposted over SIXTY things so far this morning, most of which are rando accounts with almost no followers or straight QAnon people," Filipkowski tweeted.

The Brookings Institution said that if Trump is charged with a crime, he is likely to claim that he cannot be held criminally liable for his actions as president. But it said that defence is likely to fail, because immunity from liability only extends to actions taken by the president that were within the scope of his lawful duties. While Trump as president did have the authority to unilaterally declassify most items, there are some major exceptions to that rule, including those related to nuclear weapons. And last Thursday evening, The Washington Post issued a bombshell report alleging that among the documents the Department of Justice sought were “classified documents relating to nuclear weapons.” Attorney General Merrick Garland’s announcement that the DOJ would move to unseal the warrant and receipt list had already rocked Republicans by undercutting their claims that the department wasn’t being transparent. But The Washington Post’s reporting prompted an almost eerie silence from the right on Twitter for hours Thursday night. When Trump attorney Christina Bobb was asked on Fox News about the report, she offered up a less-than-rock-solid defense. Bobb said that she had “not specifically spoken to the president about what nuclear materials may or may not have been in there. I do not believe there were any in there.”

When all of that failed, Giuliani and others pushed a false claim that the law allowed the Georgia legislature to replace its members of the electoral college with a slate that would vote for the defeated president. Legislators refused to play along and the Trump campaign instead sent 16 “fake electors” using false election certificates – another failed attempt to overturn the election replicated in six other states lost by Trump. Willis has told some of those involved in the fake electors plot that they are the target of criminal investigation by the grand jury, including the Georgia Republican party chair, David Shafer, and a state senator, Brandon Beach. Carlson said the combination of Trump’s actions potentially amount to a substantial body of evidence of wide wrongdoing. “The focus for this grand jury is solicitation of election fraud. Presumably most of the evidence that they’re receiving will focus on that. Then there will be making false statements to state or other governmental bodies. The creation of a slate of electors, which took the position that Trump had won the election, will come under that sort of umbrella. Then we’ll probably have the grand jury looking at criminal conspiracy and violation of oath of office,” he said.

I hear you. It is probably not smart. I wouldn't want my daughter at a party of this type. Telling someone you are not 17 has nothing to do with being raped however. And lots of people are triggered by how these types of cases are handled. For both sides of the story. Anyways I get your point.

You complain about speculations then present us with yours. You have strong feelings about a 17 year old at a party? Like what feelings? And what do you not fault him for? Some weird takes there.

How the hell is he gonna live on that salary?

What an example! You made a mess.

Qanon is a good source of facts.

Covfefe wasn’t mean. Come on.

While it is unclear if the accuser was in fact raped, the crime of rape is measured differently when the accuser is a minor. This is because minors cannot consent to sex with an adult. Therefore, there is never a question of whether the accuser consented. Sex with a minor is automatically rape in most jurisdictions and particularly in San Diego where Araiza is accused. Hence why it is called statutory rape. It is rape, as a matter of law, when an adult has sex with a minor. Depending on the age difference, the rape would be a misdemeanor or a felony. If there is more than a three year age difference between perp and victim, it is generally charged as a felony. In San Diego, whether to charge the crime as a felony or misdemeanor is up to the prosecutor’s discretion. It appears at least that if the alleged victim was 17 and Araiza was in fact 21 at the time, then the four-year age difference could warrant a felony charge, depending on the evidence. A felony charge could carry up to three years in jail, if there is a conviction.

I am not. It was sarcasm. Also I was commenting on her being under age. Not the other accusations. Point is he should have been way smarter and cautious at the least. Btw the idea that he was not found guilty is not accurate from what I am reading. He could end up facing statutory rape charges if the District Attorney feels the evidence is strong enough. Based on the alleged facts in the civil complaint, the evidence may end up persuading prosecutors to file formal charges.

So ironic that Garland will be the one to end the Trump cult.

is it reasonable if the victim said she was 18 in your opinion? Btw don’t you think an NFL bound dude should have enough brain cells to protect himself from such a situation? He is an idiot regardless.

It is hard to think he is that smart. We can argue forever. I always thought your posts were intelligent and reasonable over the years. So I am going with that and we dont agree at some level in politics. Much respect.

I miss when Beasley was the distraction.

Gang rape is usually funky. I suggest not posting.

I would assume so.

I don't mean this in a rude way. I get what you saying. But...... “His admission was the thing that, when I started reading about this case, that just jumped out,” Dallas-based attorney Michelle Simpson Tuegel told the Democrat and Chronicle on Friday afternoon. “I was like, ‘Whoa,’ because there are a lot of cases I handle where we don’t have that kind of what I would consider bombshell evidence.” Based on what she has read in the lawsuit, “I think it’s enough for them to charge him with a crime,” Simpson Tuegel said. “As a criminal defense lawyer or as a lawyer who now represents victims and has for years, I would say that is an admission and a problematic statement for him. He made an admission and she’s under age. I just don’t know how you get around those facts. That’s a real problem.”

Well said by Eisen...

Where he will continue to drain the swamp......

I wonder if Trump will be able to get McDonalds delivery in prison.

Is that what you got out of that? Unreal. Like Jan 6 was too?

Yeah for Trump.
