Politicians react to Jack Smith's Trump election case filing

Special counsel Jack Smith won’t get a chance to bring his best criminal case against Donald Trump to trial before the 2024 election - and if Trump wins, Smith probably will never get that chance. But on Wednesday, the public got its most complete look at the evidence Smith has amassed to try to prove that the former president orchestrated criminal conspiracies as he sought to overturn his loss four years ago.
In a 165-page legal brief unsealed by a federal judge (albeit with some redactions), the special counsel fleshed out detailed evidence he would use against Trump at trial, if the case ever makes it that far. Smith also presented his arguments for why Trump is not immune from the charges, despite the Supreme Court’s ruling over the summer that granted presidents broad immunity for official acts.

If the media hadn't lied about Trump constantly, ppl might care about this now

[@hbgrimmer850]

I love how all these Republicans are crying. Yet when the same thing happened to Hillary in 2016, not a peep of how unfair it was, lol.

[@lindakelley2676]

Comey may have actually done us a favor with his nonsense.

[@misterd7843]

Hillary was never prosecuted.

[@davidmarshall7752]

Desperate Republicans. And I mean **desperate.**

[@lindakelley2676]

Truly pathetic!

[@joepickeringjr.6818]

Let's all of us care about American and our Constitution before any candidates. Furthermore, I hope all Americans recognize the absolute NEED for WE THE PEOPLE to control our public election instead of two private corporations. Non partisan elections from local elections, primary elections and Presidential Elections means Voter Freedom and Greater Candidate choice. President Mainers for Open Elections.

This is what happens when a jabbering, substanceless, lying, loser meets a professional who knows what he's doing. Even in the face of a partisan, stacked supreme court.

[@misterd7843]

I'm not a fan of Jack Smith, either but I don't know if I'd go so far as to call him a jabbering, substanceless lying loser. Let's have a little charity for those among us who are...uh, challenged.

[@gottalovegabe1176]

It’s not political😂 Btw it was the judges decision to release this not the special counsel!

[@donnacox1354]

No one points out that ALL the witnesses from the Grand Juries on down are ALL republicans.

[@espositadelgado7458]

I’m glad I hope Donald Trump go to jail

[@starsandguitars2050]

Once Trump is indicted and found guilty by a court of law, the Republican apologists who justify Trump's acts and/or assisted him in his insurrection all need to be held accountable.

[@davidmarshall7752]

They'll either run away (like most conservatives when things don't go their way), or they'll say "I always suspected he was guilty."

[@johnengland8619]

They will try to jump in a quick bath but most will be held accountable by voters

[@donnacox1354]

The prosecutors know who they are already. If like Cruz is voted out more than likely he will be indicted. Remember there is no Pres. Biden, or V.P. Harris connection to any of this. It is a talking point because trump and his magats are guilt too.

[@MrJusttalking2u]

As Liz Cheney says, at some point Donald Trump will be gone, but the guilt and shame of his co-conspirators will remain forever. The most prominent of them will be named along with his in the history books.

[@RedEyeC]

Indicted by YOUR Woke judges and juries. Not peers! How fair is this?

[@jamespbenavidez9610]

Omg, another filing...getting old, not working....the people see through all this

[@MrJusttalking2u]

SOME of the people do not care that this traitor broke his oath of office and COMMANDED his vice president to do the same. Who sat watching police officers being beaten and now promises to pardon them. Not the ones who were just ignorant enough to go in and walk around. The ones who literally pummeled the officers, on camera.

[@janemccoy494]

It is not political. It is justice. Jack Smith is bringing the receipts.

[@RedEyeC]

Anti- American!

[@kltn3315]

it would be election interference to NOT release this information... the voters should know everything possible about their candidates

[@RedEyeC]

Anti-American!!

[@msm91101usa]

Crime is crime.

[@RudyParenteau]

So what should happen to Nancy Pelosi for having the responsibility and the 10,000 national guards?? She is responsible??

[@lindakelley2676]

That doesn't fly. Pay attention and get off FOX.

[@MrJusttalking2u]

That was not her job. I guarantee you if Biden saw these traitors invading the Capitol, he would have called for the National Guard immediately. And he would not be singing songs with them afterwards.

[@MrJusttalking2u]

Anyone who does not want traitor Trump to face justice is also a traitor to our country.

[@markjeffo6098]

A bunch of woke weak clowns.

You would stand trial, and take the stand in your own defense. Trump will never take the stand to tell what he has done. So much more would come out.
