It's quite a list....

-Donald Trump was charged, convicted, and is awaiting sentencing.

-Trump’s former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, was charged, convicted, and sentenced to prison.

-Trump’s former campaign vice chairman, Rick Gates, was charged, convicted, and sentenced to prison.

-Trump’s former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, was charged, convicted, and sentenced to prison.

-Trump’s former adviser and former campaign aide, Roger Stone, was charged, convicted, and sentenced to prison.

-Trump’s former adviser and former White House aide Peter Navarro, was charged, convicted, and is currently in prison.

-Trump’s former campaign adviser, George Papadopoulos, was charged, convicted, and sentenced to prison.

-The Trump Organization’s former CFO, Allen Weisselberg, was charged, convicted, and sentenced to prison.

-Trump’s former White House national security advisor, Michael Flynn, was charged and convicted.

‐Trump’s former chief strategist, Steve Bannon, was charged with wire fraud and money laundering, in addition to a conviction in a contempt case similar to Navarro’s. He’s currently awaiting sentencing

This is the kind of information, that the “Law and Order “ folks need to be reminded of on the regular…

Or is it we need to follow the law, but they are being unfairly targeted?????

Unfortunately we don't share a common language anymore. The people fighting for "law and order" don't actually mean, that everyone has to follow the same law. For them it's a tool to police minorities and political opponents. In other words fascism.

They want to use the law to order you to bow down to them. It's that simple.

Those traitor cunts don’t give a shit. The only way to deal with them is to marginalize them.

Because I can't be arsed to look it all up myself, did any of the people on that list have a bench trial, or was it all jury trials?

Time for the Frank Wilhoit quote:

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition ... There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

Soon to be on the list:

-Trump’s former personal legal adviser, Rudolph Giuliani, was barred from practicing law in NY and DC, and was indicted for spreading false claims regarding Georgia and Arizona’s elections. He is currently awaiting trial.

So 90% of his team are felons. At what point will we just admit that in today’s politics, Republican == Felon?
