Trump has been indicted for a second time, in connection with an investigation of his handling of classified information while out of office, sources confirm to ABC News
I suspect the same but idk how you can bring someone up on these kinds of charges and just give them probation if convicted. I wish this guy would have just behaved like a normal person so we wouldn't have to deal with this bullshit.
This time it's different. If this goes to trial he will be convinced with near certainty. The shit he's accused of is incredibly serious, and it sounds like they have him dead to rights.
This time it sounds different. The republican strategy of discrediting the investigation/investigators doesn't really seem to be taking hold. Unlike the Jan 6th investigations, the facts of this case is simple and those causally aware of the case can understand it.
If I'm betting, I'm still betting he sees no real punishment that actually hurts him in any way...buuuuuuut...one big thing here as opposed to his impeachments is that it comes down to a jury and is only about whether he did the things or not. With impeachment, it's much more a political vote than a true judgement of actions.
I'll be excited about it when there's some actual consequences for him out of it. Until then I'm just utterly convinced he'll face no actual penalty for his actions.
Former President Donald Trump indicted for a second time on federal charges related to handling classified information.
Charges include retaining national defense information, obstructing justice, withholding and concealing documents, and making false statements.
Trump denies wrongdoing and calls the indictment a "hoax" and a "dark day" for the US.
The indictment is unprecedented, as a former president facing criminal charges while being a leading candidate for the Republican Party's 2024 presidential nomination.
The investigation is led by special counsel Jack Smith, who is also overseeing the probe into Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election results.
Yes, it was the Clintons who forced Trump to hide boxes of classified documents in a ball room in his mansion, show it to different people while bragging about how classified it was, and collude with an aide to hide it in the basement when the FBI asked for it. That makes so much sense.
