Just because you’re rich and on a tv show doesn’t mean that the law applies to you, please God somebody tell that to the justice department so they can actually hold Trump accountable for all the crimes he’s guilty of

Keep that same energy when this Biden laptop trial starts.

[@twylah9047]

What crimes did Trump committ? Sounds like you have some inside info... The Dem party spent Millions and millions of tax dollars and thousand's of paid hrs of babble promising to bring DJT to justice. Trump defending himself with his hand full of attornys, small in compairson to what the Dem were spending of OUR TAX DOLLARS to put him and his family away. Not one scrap has been found to any such crimes. And the hunt goes on. SO , expose Trump. Show us what inside info you have. Your comment is ignorant and unfounded. If not, lay it out ,why keep the world waiting?

You are not entitled to your opinion. You are entitled to your informed opinion. No one is entitled to be ignorant.The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.Sounds like you got a BIG DOSE of LIBERAL TV News. if you are watching Todd and Julie Chrisley you have to much fantsy time on your hands. Life is so short, use it more effectiently and with a lot more meaning than lies and deception. There is nothing more frightful than ignorance in action

Reality for Todd Chrisley is being locked up for years in a small southern prison cell. His big dude cellmate smiles as soon as Todd, the new guy, enters the cell; it’s like the funny jail cell scene in the movie “My Cousin Vinny“ or the movie “Deliverance“.

If they’re sentenced to house arrest, then they should pay for their “incarceration”, not the public. They would beg for actual prison just to save a dime.

[@ashlewis9703]

I’m not saying the chrisleys are perfect , but so many people throwing stones, casting judgment …. At the end of the day they are human just like us… normal people with a family to raise a granddaughter , a teenage son, grown children a 3 parents that they are their care takers . It’s a shame that everyone thinks they are so high and mighty in this world to judge Julie and Todd , I pray they come out the other end of this terrible time for their family stronger and even more humble! I personal think they have always had Jesus. It’s always the first thing people cast down on others when someone is going through dark days oh now they are clinging to the cross, well sure they are …. They need him now more than ever, doesn’t mean they haven’t always had him! I’m going to pray for them reguardless just like I do for the rest of the people in need of prayers around the world! Those two youngest babies didn’t deserve any of this!!!

[@JusticeforVarg]

Most of us don't steal 30 million dollars.

[@ukfor9bbn4ever56]

True, they did not deserve their guardians and the ppl raising them to NOT accidentally in some type of mistake but wholeheartedly FULL OUT BREAK THE LAW EGREGIOUSLY AS ONE CAN, fueling a life of wealth mostly through FRAUD! No those 2 little ones deserved their parents to understand that they need us more than we need to portray and keep this lavish lifestyle up and running for all to envy.. Maybe if those little ones came first, and money greed and materialistic things after, this wouldn’t be an issue. Doesn’t mean I’m perfect. Not judging, it’s stating simple facts of the ACTUAL situation! Judging is not knowing the full story and making assumptions based on the old judging a book by it’s cover. This isn’t assumptions they are very sad and real facts

[@janicepatterson7047]

I agree 100 percent. Some of these comments are just plain nasty and uncalled for. None of us are perfect. Just trying to imagine what Chloe and Grayson are going through almost brings me to tears. And his poor mother..oh my God please be with them.

You can tell by the sentence they've been gone after. They must have not fallen in line. Too many rich people get away with this and much worse. Clearly they were targeted for a reason. Which makes me think they were probably innocent.

[@jarrodschroeder]

They deserve more prison time they probably defrauded tv producers . I'd have put him away for 30 to 40 years and her away for 25 years and their crooked lawyers away for 10 years for asking for leaneancy!
