The. DoJ. Should. Not. Consider. Political. Implications. When. Pursuing. A. Criminal. Trial.

Full fucking stop. The moment they start speeding shit up because it might be affected by or affect an election, is the minute we become a banana republic. The DoJ is NOT, nor should it ever be, a political weapon.

I think the only reason its taken this long is some fumbled political strategy to try to distract trump from campaign season. They werent gathering evidence for 3 years, theyll be as prepared for this case no better than if they charged him 3 months after the crime. What evidence would they not have by then?

Corroborating witnesses and guilty pleas. Honestly, dude. Have you not ever spoken with an actual lawyer in your life? You can't possibly be this clueless.

Witnesses? The whole thing was filmed! Everyone watched Trump rally his followers to march on the capital and "fight like hell", where news crews were already stationed. We've had an insanely extensive breakdown on the attack for a long time now.

You have literally no idea how criminal conspiracy or mens rea work. Jesus fucking christ dude. I'm so glad people like you aren't in charge, or Trump would walk after a 2-day trial and 4 minutes of jury deliberation. I honestly can't even figure out how to start explaining how shittily informed you are.
