Does everyone remember when he was originally saying he was totally innocent and everthing he was accused of was a democratic smear campaign?
Because ….
Innocent people don’t hide shit like this.
Came to these comments hoping to see some thoughts about what this evidence includes. But none. Is no one even curious??
Maybe it includes a copy of the treasure map from the back of the Constitution and it's inside the white house because he procrastinated on grabbing it while he was there and he wants to keep it quiet so that Biden doesn't get it before Trump can.
Though if I had to guess for real, maybe it's communications that refer to his cult in not so friendly terms? Like maybe he said some things about what he really thought about them, which probably don't reflect well on their intelligence or value.
Though, as the other commenter said, there's no real value in this speculation other than for entertainment.
It’s generally not a good idea to assume things of others. That’s what they often do to their rivals and it doesn’t ever work out well for them.
Speculation just dilutes the water.
Duh.
If you've done nothing wrong, you've got nothing to hide right.
He doesn’t care. Even with a felony conviction, he still thinks he didn’t do anything wrong.
with a felony conviction,
The validity of the court is directly related to how they fulfill his goals. In a society based on loyalty first, that's his most important criteria.
Ergo, to him, the court and all its rulings are wrong, because they didn't pass the ethics test of Doing What Trump Wants.
Oh, no, he definitely knows he did something wrong. He just knows that if he pushes hard enough, there's a chance he can get away with it. Trump is a psychopath who knows that rules are only as powerful as their enforcement, and he's been weaseling his way by them his whole life.
Trump is a psychopath
Trump is a weird, old, ruthless, malignant narcissistic psychopath - FTFY
He knows he broke the law... he doesn't know he did something wrong...
Everyone knows he's guilty. His supporters just don't care that he did it.
Everyone knows he’s guilty. His supporters just don’t care that he did it.
His supporters are Conservatives. They believe that the law doesn't apply to some people because inequality is 'good' and 'natural'. And they also believe that inequality will be in their favour, even if they live precariously on or near the very bottom rung of society.
Conservatives are most often the people who would (and, increasingly, in a country which got rid of royalty, do) support something like the Divine Right of Kings to do what they want. "Because somebody has to be in charge," they will say, while imagining the 'wrong' kind of people being rounded up.
Insert Wilhoit's Law here.
The only problem is he failed.
