The list of things that should put Trump in jail but he will never see consequences for.
He’s starting to run low on money. Keep on going after him, he is hemorrhaging funds for legal defenses everywhere.
Are you sure he's actually paying them? Sure, he's racking up bills, but...
Maybe, maybe not. This is pissing with the IRS. They really can get a pain in the ass, even for the rich.
After all, tax evasion is how they got Capone back in the day. It would be poetic if Trump was nailed for the same thing.
I wouldn't say poetic more than a demonstration of how this country has utterly failed to shore up the justice system so we can properly take care of rich connected criminals...
I hope it isn't, that would grant him satisfaction for being compared to him. I hope he gets jailed for shitting in a pool or something equally as humilating
You mean the IRS that Trump's party desperately wants to cut off as much funding as it can for? It is entirely possible that if NYS didn't step in and take the lead on pointing out his fraud, the IRS would have never found it, given the current funding battles in Congress.
federal agency. better hope he doesnt win the ability to pardon himself
That's the list I'm talking about, unfortunately.
