Do you think Trump deserves jail time? Why or why not?

[Lucy68]

It has been reported that on Thursday, 24th of August that Trump will turn himself in. If Trump does go to federal prison in your opinion what do you think the aftermath will be? And in your opinion, what does this mean for the future of the Republican Party as well as the future for the Democratic Party?

[lightbulb27]

what I think doesn't matter does it? have to see the laws and evidence and its up to a few people on a jury... but where do you find unbiased people? It's very clear they are doing everything possible to prevent him from being leader again. Democrats have been rabid against him from the beginning and one has to wonder why, why so severe the attacks.

Maybe we need to indict lots of others?

Yes. He stirred up sedition. He schemed to remain in power illegally. He pressured government officials to break the law and ignore the constitution as part of his scheme. He illegally possessed state secrets after his term ended and obstructed justice when he was given multiple opportunities to return the documents. These crimes are unprecedented in U. S. history for a former president. If we’re going to give him a free pass, we might as well just open up the prisons and let everyone out. There should not be a two-tiered system of justice for the haves and have nots. Accountability should start at the top. Lock him up and any other elected official that breaks the law.

[lightbulb27]

it's kinda funny how you wrote that because in bail reform states, that's what democrats have done... they take people whom hurt others and turn them loose and they commit crimes over and over. An EMT near me just got knifed up by a crazy guy. it's odd how they think. I'd rather have dangerous people in jail if there's limited space.

[exitseven]

where is the proof of any of this?

[Opinion Owner]

@exitseven Much of it happened in real time in front of the nation and recordings and witness accounts have been made public already but hey, stick with denial. We’ll see how that works for Trump in court. K sweetie?

[jennifer_bloom]

He’s normalized racism for many people and made America a more hateful and unfair place so he should definitely go to jail for all the pain and misery he caused the world, including the Capitol Hill officers that were killed because of him or the ones who committed suicide after the riots he started.

[exitseven]

Oxford dictionary defines racism as follows "[t]he theory that distinctive human characteristics and abilities are determined by race""
President Trump did not hire people according to their race or give handouts according to race. He provided equal opportunity for all Americans. He hired people according to ability. This is in direct contrast to the current administration.

[OlderAndWiser]

How would ANY of us know whether he is guilty since we have not seen the evidence or heard the testimony of witnesses. Your question follows the somewhat recent trend of people being in a rush to judge someone before they have heard the evidence. Don't you think we should actually hear the evidence instead of making a decision on what the MSM has told us?

[tfan1]

He’s not guilty of anything - bonehead biden is guiltier than hell! The proof is there - hunter’s laptop, etc but the demonic rats are so desperate to keep power they know President Donald J Trump is the only one who can stop them. That why they are throwing anything and everything at him.

[SexyBrunetteNY]

This is all cooked up crap that has NO place in our country. People are allowed to contest and to question elections - and as POTUS - that was his job, to serve the American voter.

[Anonymous]

I think most of Congress and the senate and those in politics deserve jail time. They have lied and cheated the American people out of there money, livelihood, etc… most if not all of the IRS needs to be in jail for stealing money from the American people. We need government, but we need a form of government that’s good for the people. We just have corruption in politics. And it’s not just trump. Trump, although I’m not a fan of him was just a very easy scapegoat.

[Danny_dan92]

If we’re gonna say any political figure deserves jail time is Joe Biden

[Stacey55666]

I agree. He's not only a criminal, but he's done enough to be impeached about 20 times.

[Danny_dan92]

Oh yes, yet republicans don’t play dirty like dems.

Dems love to employ political warfare.

Why? Cause they’re sore losers and winners.

“A threat to our democracy” really should be

“A threat to our power and control”

[exitseven]

@Stacey55666 His lifespan is nowhere near long enough for him to be imprisoned long enough for his crimes.

[Stacey55666]

@exitseven
I was talking about Biden.

[exitseven]

No, all the charges are flimsy with no legal precedent. The whole spectacle is to keep him too busy to campaign

[Stacey55666]

If he ever commits a crime, he deserves jail time.

[Still-alive]

He's committed several crimes :)

[Stacey55666]

@Still-alive
You're a liberal so your opinion means nothing to me.

[Still-alive]

Right a good liberal is a dead liberal to you. You want the civil war now. Gotcha

[Stacey55666]

@Still-alive

Why are you talking to me? Just carry on the conversation by yourself.

[Still-alive]

Lol you know im right.

See ya

[Stacey55666]

@Still-alive
I know you're an idiot. lol

[Still-alive]

At least i acknowledge reality you fascist :)

[Stacey55666]

@Still-alive
The reality is that you are lonely and need someone to talk to. The only way you can manage to make that happen is by arguing. Lucy asked a question and I gave my opinion. That's it.

[Cubus]

I think that actually would be good for Republicans, if Trump went to jail. They would build the martytologic rhetoric over Trump.

[Lucy68]

How so mind me asking, I love hearing other people's opinions 🙂

[Cubus]

He would be a XXIth century Mandela - his imprisonment would make him very popular. Because you know - "I'm being jailed by oppresors for loving this country"

[Agape93]

He deserves a different fate. He'll I wouldn't mind if he had ridden on that Wagner guys plane.

[Anonymous]

no i think joe biden deserves jail time. why? well, look outside.

[gorydetails]

Of course not. This is tinpot dictator shit on the democrat party.

[Alex8736]

It will be up the courts. Innocent till proven guilty

[Guardian45]

He should get Life in prison without parole or executed like the traitor he is.

[Stacey55666]

For what?

Never mind. LOL. You're Canadian.

[Guardian45]

@Stacey55666. Treason, Insurrection, Tax Fraud, Rape, Deliberately perverting the course of Justice, impeding and lying to FBI. Did I miss anything?

[Stacey55666]

Treason? lol

[Guardian45]

@Stacey55666. Yup. Giving state secrets to his bumbuddy, Putin.

[Stacey55666]

LMAO
Canada couldn't even shoot down a balloon. They had to have the US shoot it down for them.

[Guardian45]

@Stacey55666. So your best defense is to obfuscate?

[Stacey55666]

Trudeau should get Life in prison without parole or executed like the traitor he is.

Now please don't obfuscate.

[Guardian45]

@Stacey55666. Trudeau AIN'T my PM, but his crimes don't even approach the level of criminality of the treasonous, tax-evading, rapist, psychopathic narcissistic liar named Trump.

And still NO viable objection, proof or argument that ANYTHING I have said is NOT TRUTH SOCIAL!

[Stacey55666]

Trudeau is a serial killer that kills children.

[Guardian45]

@Stacey55666. Show me the money.

[Still-alive]

don't you like how fascists like her think they can just make shit up whenever they want and think this is an 'own'? lol @guardian45

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

If proven guilty he definitely should go to prison.

[shortster]

Nope, the only crimes he has done other people only paid fines for.

[Celticwolf78]

No he doesn't deserve it I think that they need to forget him and investigate the Biden administration because I believe that they set trump up

[Jamie05rhs]

No. He did nothing wrong.

[gothbxtch]

yes he does, he’s committed a ton of awful crimes

[Still-alive]

Yup. He deserves to rot in there

[Anonymous]

I hope rfk Jr can save us from Biden.

[Stacey55666]

He can't, because he has a brain and actually wants to help the people.

[Adaeva]

Of course not.
