Soon Trump will face real courts

Once impeachment is over, the threat to Trump shifts to real courtrooms


As the Senate trial judging Donald Trump’s second impeachment got underway on Tuesday, his lead defense attorney, Bruce Castor, offered an unexpected rationale for setting the impeachment aside.
“There is no opportunity where the president of the United States can run rampant in January at the end of his term and just go away scot-free,” Castor said. “The Department of Justice does know what to do with such people.”

After all, if the president had committed crimes, “after he’s out of office, you go and arrest him,” he said.
Reporting suggests that Trump, watching from Mar-a-Lago, wasn’t happy with Castor’s performance. Given his attorney’s embrace of potentially having his client arrested, one can understand why.
That’s not likely to happen, mind you. While the D.C. attorney general did suggest shortly after the Capitol was overrun by a pro-Trump mob on Jan. 6 that Trump himself might be charged with a misdemeanor for inciting the violence, that remains unlikely. But the discussion of Trump’s liability to criminal prosecution does serve as a reminder that this is very much still a non-theoretical threat the former president faces.
For example, we learned this week that investigators in Georgia were beginning the process of potentially bringing charges against Trump for another facet of his impeachment: his effort to get Georgia’s secretary of state to “find” enough votes in the state to give Trump a victory there in the 2020 presidential contest. (Secretary Brad Raffensperger declined to do so.)
It’s unlikely that this will result in charges, but it’s not a casual investigation. Speaking to MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow on Thursday, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) explained that her office’s probe extends beyond the recorded call with Raffensperger first obtained by The Washington Post last month. The investigation being led by Willis is also separate from a similar one initiated at the state level.
Trump faces similar multitiered investigations in other places as well.
For example, the fundraising and spending of his 2017 inaugural committee is reportedly under investigation from at least three entities.
“I’m working with three different prosecutors, and it’s taken over my life,” former Melania Trump aide Stephanie Wolkoff told “Good Morning America” in August. That includes the Southern District of New York at the federal level and attorneys general in D.C. and New Jersey.
In 2019, a donor to the inaugural committee pleaded guilty to having attempted to obstruct the federal probe into the committee’s finances. Last month, the D.C. attorney general’s office alerted Donald Trump Jr. that it wanted to interview him on the subject.
Then there are the investigations into Trump’s personal business. In his testimony before Congress in 2019, Trump’s former personal attorney Michael Cohen suggested that the Trump Organization had been engaged in efforts to misstate the value of properties to reduce property tax obligations. That appears to have helped trigger more scrutiny for his former employer.
The office of New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) is engaged in a civil probe of the Trump Organization’s finances. That effort had a recent court victory, with the state’s Supreme Court ordering the Trump Organization to turn over tax documents. In New York City, the Manhattan district attorney is well into a criminal probe with the same focus. In December, the New York Times reported that this investigation had “intensified” following the election, though it “remains unclear whether the office of the Manhattan district attorney, Cyrus R. Vance Jr., will ultimately bring charges.”
One cloud hanging over Trump has cleared, however. Last week, the Associated Press reported that an investigation into campaign finance violations related to hush-money payments made before the 2016 election was “dead.” Cohen himself had pleaded guilty to violating federal law for his role in facilitating the payments to two women who’d alleged extramarital relationships with the then-candidate. In doing so, he directly implicated Trump — but a probe into the former president will likely not move forward.
Trump’s exposure to legal risk is broader than these investigations. He is also the target of a defamation lawsuit from journalist E. Jean Carroll.
In 2019, Carroll came forward with an allegation that Trump had sexually assaulted her in the 1990s. Trump dismissed the allegation, saying that she was lying to sell books and that she was “not my type.” Carroll sued in late 2019.
While he was president, Trump was shielded from criminal indictment and saw the Justice Department he ran intervene to try to derail the Carroll lawsuit. He no longer has those protections. He’s not likely to face any criminal charges related to the events of Jan. 6, which are at the heart of the impeachment trial, but he may come to appreciate the relatively low stakes this trial involves.

Schmidlips really has the TDS fevah today!

It's amusing how those who slurp down the orange Kool-Aid® get their frillies in a wad when the Cry Baby Loser is mentioned without the obligatory cringing reverence. Their infatuation with their pissy boy cannot tolerate objective assessments. as he whines, and bleats, and snivels in his desperate need for attention as they rage against non-cultists giving it to him.

The reality is that, after losing the Republican Party control of the House, Executive, and Senate in a single term, and inciting his goons to attack Congress when he was too feeble to accept with dignity the American People dumping him at their first opportunity, he persists in making his noisome presence pervasive in the Party, like a big, fat dead rat behind the wall.

The republicans didn't lose the house. They didn't have the house before. They gained over 30 seats in the house narrowing the liberal lead to just 5 seats. They didn't lose a single house seat that they were running for reelection for. And the senate is 50 50. The only thing the republicans lost was the white house. And they are set to get the senate and house back in 2022.

 

[schmidlap]

The republicans didn't lose the house...

Republicans lost control of the House, Executive, and Senate during the quadrennium of Trumpery, a feat unmatched by any president since Herbert Hoover.

Trump set to be first president since 1932 to lose reelection, the House and the Senate​

​

When Trump lost in November, he joined some select and unpleasant company: presidents who failed to win a second term. Modern presidents most often win reelection, including all three of Trump’s immediate predecessors. Trump became just the 10th elected president to run a second time and lose.​

​

Trump would become the first elected president since the Great Depression to lose all three in a single term...​

​

Trump set to be first president since 1932 to lose reelection, the House and the Senate

(Hoover was the one who didn't throw a hissyfit and mewl that he had won in a "LANDSLIDE!")

In your dreams and fantasy world troll boy.you just cannot accept reality shill that this is the first time in mankindhistory that both the house and senate are trying to put a president behind bars because he is the first president since the greatest president of the 20th century kennedy to not be part of the corrupt two party system whom the CIA took out for that very reason which is also why there have been 28 assassination attempts on trumps life trollboy, oh and just because you have not heard it from the CIA controlled media does not mean it hasn’t happened either trollboy.

oh and when the corrupt government fails to put him behind bars same as they failed to impeach him,here is a tissue fir you to cry in same as you cried for hours when they failed to impeach him last time.oh and don’t worry,the tissue is new,it’s not the old tissue you wet in crying for hours over when they failed to impeach him.

Once impeachment is over, the threat to Trump shifts to real courtrooms


As the Senate trial judging Donald Trump’s second impeachment got underway on Tuesday, his lead defense attorney, Bruce Castor, offered an unexpected rationale for setting the impeachment aside.
“There is no opportunity where the president of the United States can run rampant in January at the end of his term and just go away scot-free,” Castor said. “The Department of Justice does know what to do with such people.”

After all, if the president had committed crimes, “after he’s out of office, you go and arrest him,” he said.
Reporting suggests that Trump, watching from Mar-a-Lago, wasn’t happy with Castor’s performance. Given his attorney’s embrace of potentially having his client arrested, one can understand why.
That’s not likely to happen, mind you. While the D.C. attorney general did suggest shortly after the Capitol was overrun by a pro-Trump mob on Jan. 6 that Trump himself might be charged with a misdemeanor for inciting the violence, that remains unlikely. But the discussion of Trump’s liability to criminal prosecution does serve as a reminder that this is very much still a non-theoretical threat the former president faces.
For example, we learned this week that investigators in Georgia were beginning the process of potentially bringing charges against Trump for another facet of his impeachment: his effort to get Georgia’s secretary of state to “find” enough votes in the state to give Trump a victory there in the 2020 presidential contest. (Secretary Brad Raffensperger declined to do so.)
It’s unlikely that this will result in charges, but it’s not a casual investigation. Speaking to MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow on Thursday, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) explained that her office’s probe extends beyond the recorded call with Raffensperger first obtained by The Washington Post last month. The investigation being led by Willis is also separate from a similar one initiated at the state level.
Trump faces similar multitiered investigations in other places as well.
For example, the fundraising and spending of his 2017 inaugural committee is reportedly under investigation from at least three entities.
“I’m working with three different prosecutors, and it’s taken over my life,” former Melania Trump aide Stephanie Wolkoff told “Good Morning America” in August. That includes the Southern District of New York at the federal level and attorneys general in D.C. and New Jersey.
In 2019, a donor to the inaugural committee pleaded guilty to having attempted to obstruct the federal probe into the committee’s finances. Last month, the D.C. attorney general’s office alerted Donald Trump Jr. that it wanted to interview him on the subject.
Then there are the investigations into Trump’s personal business. In his testimony before Congress in 2019, Trump’s former personal attorney Michael Cohen suggested that the Trump Organization had been engaged in efforts to misstate the value of properties to reduce property tax obligations. That appears to have helped trigger more scrutiny for his former employer.
The office of New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) is engaged in a civil probe of the Trump Organization’s finances. That effort had a recent court victory, with the state’s Supreme Court ordering the Trump Organization to turn over tax documents. In New York City, the Manhattan district attorney is well into a criminal probe with the same focus. In December, the New York Times reported that this investigation had “intensified” following the election, though it “remains unclear whether the office of the Manhattan district attorney, Cyrus R. Vance Jr., will ultimately bring charges.”
One cloud hanging over Trump has cleared, however. Last week, the Associated Press reported that an investigation into campaign finance violations related to hush-money payments made before the 2016 election was “dead.” Cohen himself had pleaded guilty to violating federal law for his role in facilitating the payments to two women who’d alleged extramarital relationships with the then-candidate. In doing so, he directly implicated Trump — but a probe into the former president will likely not move forward.
Trump’s exposure to legal risk is broader than these investigations. He is also the target of a defamation lawsuit from journalist E. Jean Carroll.
In 2019, Carroll came forward with an allegation that Trump had sexually assaulted her in the 1990s. Trump dismissed the allegation, saying that she was lying to sell books and that she was “not my type.” Carroll sued in late 2019.
While he was president, Trump was shielded from criminal indictment and saw the Justice Department he ran intervene to try to derail the Carroll lawsuit. He no longer has those protections. He’s not likely to face any criminal charges related to the events of Jan. 6, which are at the heart of the impeachment trial, but he may come to appreciate the relatively low stakes this trial involves.

I'll play along as long as you promise to star in a snuff film if President Trump is still playing golf and banging his supermodel wife 6 months from now. Think about it, you'll finally contribute something to society.... albeit a handful of soulless degenerates jacking off to your death.....

We good?

I’ll wager my very large paycheck against you’re government provided check that Trump will not be convicted of anything.

Deal?

Put my paycheck in for the bet.

A Democrat jury with a Democrat Judge in a Democrat city in a Democrat state IS NOT A REAL COURT!

How do you know that it will be a Democratic Judge and Jury? Is everyone in NYC a Democrate? And if state AG charges him it my not even be in NYC

Yes, yes, and yes.
You know I'm right!

Everybody is right when they debate against this troll from Langley B. Kidd
