It shouldn't be a competition on who did what; if Hilary did that as well, then she should also be in jail....it still doesn't take away the fact that Trump is guilty of 34 felonies and just like an person in America, he should be dealt with as the system pleases.

BS. He only listed their conflicting money making schemes off the back of this trial. And the judge stated over & over on public tech sites years ago that Trump should be put in jail. Hardly a fair trial. But democrats only worship their evil god of corruption & true lawlessness.

[@scottjohnson8598]

Really? Have any of Jeffery Epstein’s clients been arrested? The precedent has been set. This will backfire for the Democrats. In 2016, Hillary Clinton’s campaign secretly paid more than a million dollars to foreign spies to create entire fictions out of whole cloth in order to smear Donald Trump as a Russia agent. These concealed payments ultimately led to illegal spying on a Presidential campaign and a pointless, multimillion dollar Congressional witch hunt that derailed nearly three years of a presidential term. For these illegal payments, the FEC fined the Clinton campaign just $8,000, and the DNC $105,000. Trump, in contrast, spent $130,000 to spare his wife the embarrassment of a porn stars extortion attempt. None of the money was used to target Hillary Clinton or any other political opponents. It was done under advice of counsel. The FEC declined to even fine Trump over the payments. Yet he is the one facing over four years in prison for an alleged “campaign finance violation”.

[@Michael-of6zf]

tell me what crime he was found guilty of exactly? Nobody knows, thats the point. The judge never told anyone what the charge was. Everyone thinks falsifying a document but that was not the charge. They could not charge him with that because of statue of limitations.
