It will be Trump’s fourth arrest since April, when he became the first former president in U.S. history to face indictment. Since then, Trump, who remains the leading candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, has had what has seemed like an endless procession of bookings and arraignments in jurisdictions across the country. His appearances in New York, Florida and Washington, D.C., have drawn enormous media attention, with news helicopters tracking his every move.

    Could someone please handcuff this guy, even for 10 minutes? People get beaten with sticks for stealing $20 of groceries.

      Knowing our two-tiered just system Trump will simply be asked his height and weight and will be allowed to use a professional headshot as his muggie.

      I know people who were handcuffed to a table for having a piece of weed.

        I know a guy who’s life got ruined because a girl once said that he raped her. Lost his job, family, most friends, everything. This was 20 years ago and she came clean 19.5 years ago.
        This guy wants to vecome president of the united states and people cheer for him

      You know… if I were running intake or whatever…. I’d totally just troll the shit out of everyone. Pretend I don’t know who the guy is. Make him produce identifications- plural- tell the secret service goons to get lost if they’re not surrendering.

      All of it,

        It would serve him right considering the number of times he’s said he didn’t know who someone was when they got caught breaking the law for him.

      The important thing to remember here is that it’s only improving with people who are already inclined to vote for him. He’s getting a larger and larger percentage of a shrinking group.

      Fuck that shit. The justice supposed to be blind. I can’t believe he isn’t already in arrest waiting for trial. If I did fraction what he did I don’t think I would see the light of day.

    What would his punishment be if he was poor and black?

    As much of a Trump as he is, my tinfoil hat theory is that we really, really need to keep this guy from getting Epstein’d. Have extra windows and livestream cameras if necessary. Cause if it happens, dems are 100% getting blamed and a few riots would be the best case scenario.

    (No, I’m not advocating for it, just predicting it would happen in my rando crackpot theory.)

      Whenever he passes normally from natural causes, obviously the insane people in a particular part of his fan base, inflamed by intentional manipulators, will absolutely lose it.
