Ty Cobb, who represented Trump in Mueller investigation, says classified documents case is ‘tight’ after new charges filed
As a Republican I’m legit curious just how much depravity are people willing to overlook just to get their “team” a W? If the Dem’s can come up with anyone at all other than Joe or Hillary this will be a complete bloodbath come election time that makes the past ass kicking look like a love tap. I mean, it just has to be, right?

I’ve been wondering the same thing for quite a while. The other question is why are Republicans willing to chance this. There’s clown shows out there, but this election is truly stupid on the part of both parties.
The beach I live on is packed with vehicles, boats and canopies covered in Trump flags every weekend. It’s a crazy amount of them and there’s always a vendor or two selling more out of their trunk! Blinders are securely on. Folks are just hungry for a win for whatever reason, at any price.

There should be a gif of the scene in Shawshank redemption where the dude hangs himself.
That is how I feel about 2024

Georgia prosecutor Fani Willis reports racist threats over Trump case bbc
A Georgia prosecutor has reported receiving racist threats and abuse as she decides whether to charge former President Donald Trump.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has been investigating Mr Trump for alleged efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 US election.
On Monday, Mr Trump's legal team unsuccessfully requested she be disqualified from the case.
A grand jury vote is expected soon on possible criminal charges.
In a letter seen by CBS, the BBC's US partner, Ms Willis warned local officials to "stay alert" this month as the decision looms.
Ms Willis, a Democrat, cited a recent email in which she was subject to racist and sexist language and told she will fail.
She said that the letter was "pretty typical" of correspondence she has received.
There have also been threatening phone calls to her office that were similar in nature, she said.
"I took an oath. No one other than the citizens of Fulton County put me in this seat," Ms Willis said in the letter. "I have every intention of doing my job. Please make decisions that keep your staff safe".
Local media has reported that additional security measures have been implemented at the Fulton County courthouse ahead of a possible decision from the grand jury.
In a separate letter in May, Ms Willis warned that any charges "may provoke a significant public reaction".
The Georgia probe, in part, focuses on a phone call between Mr Trump and Georgia's chief election officer in which the former president suggested that officials could "find" over 11,000 votes to tip the election in his favour.
The potential charges reportedly include solicitation of election fraud, making false statements to government officials and racketeering.
Ms Willis has previously said that any potential charges would likely be filed in August.
On Monday, a Georgia judge rejected a bid by Mr Trump's lawyers to remove Ms Wallis from the case and to quash a report from the grand jury - one of two sworn in earlier this month - that examines his role in the aftermath of the 2020 election.
Mr Trump, for his part, has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.
He has also characterised the phone call at the heart of the case as being "perfect" and accused Ms Wallis of carrying out a "political witch hunt".
The Georgia case is one of a number of legal issues currently facing Mr Trump.
In the past four months, he has been indicted twice - once in New York for alleged financial crimes and once in federal court on charges he mishandled sensitive and classified documents.

No matter how you see, plus however many anyone else sees, there aren't enough crazies to get Trump elected. Because if he's the nominee, it doesn't matter who the Dems put up against him, their party will coalesce behind that person, as will everyone anywhere near the middle, and a considerable number of Republicans. I'm one of those Republicans hungry for a win, but I'm not voting for Trump. I won't vote for Biden, but there are a few Dems I would vote for. Otherwise, if Trump is nominated I'll sit this one out.
Question: do you truly believe Biden to be just as corrupt as Trump? Age?
I’ve never seen two more morally bankrupt people ( that aren’t married like the Clintons) in my life. Trump and Biden are in a race to find the bottom of the ethics well. They’ve both committed some form of national betrayal, both tried to profit off their traitorous behavior.
Where’s the Biden indictments Andy? Get your finger off the scale.
It’s starting with him just like it did with Trump. The difference is Biden’s boy is taking the heavy heat, Trump didn’t figure out how to pull that off.
Please explain why the Saudis gave Jared billions, or why Ivanka received patents in China? The only reason Hunter hasn’t been cleared is Republicans have nothing else apparently.
Trump as a President is scarier to me because I think his ego and vindictiveness could equate to decisions that are extremely bad for our country. For that reason I would choose Biden over Trump in a binary choice.
But Biden may lie even more than Trump (although silly to compare because both seem incapable of telling the truth).
But one question for you on corruption - who has gotten richer while in public office?
And Hunter got millions from Ukraine, China, etc… they are both reprehensible people
