Trump supporters will claim that being a criminal shouldn't disqualify you from being President. So even if he was convicted they would still vote for him. How times have changed.

Not really. Trump supporters just don't believe he committed any actual crimes. People don't always consciously ignore such things rather they find a way to rationalize it. Rather than saying a criminal can be president they rationalize it as Trump isn't a criminal.

So the GOP can determine who is allowed to run?

I thought anyone can as long as the requirements that apply the same to both sides are followed.

Possibly. I don't know the details of the internal GOP rules of all 50 states however it is possible that they have rules about what sort of standing someone may be in to have their name on the republican ballot.  So for example if some state GOP group had a rule that said no one who is indicted for a felony can run then their name could be removed. On top of that, if a state law prohibited a person convicted for a felony from running that could remove Trump's name from the ballot and the GOP of that state would have to choose a replacement candidate in some way.

Of course if that happens Trump could always try to run as an independent. That would be interesting to see what happens...

Kind of like people who rationalize that a "president" can take millions in bribes from our enemies, open up the southern border to a foreign invasion, turn the national currency into toilet paper, and use all the powers of the federal government to go after his political opponents and that's totally okay and not at all like an insane suicidal banana republic?

There is nothing Trump has done that hasn't already been done a million times worst by the very people terrified of him.

It's a Witch Hunt and even the people conducting it know it.  That's how afraid of him they are.

U also left out how 1 POTUS is constantly being looked for things to "get him" on.  He better not be off by 1 penny on his tax returns.

So no evidence that youre aware of. Got it. I figured this would be the kind of response since u parrot what the news tells u to.

Just FYI, a witness statement is considered evidence.

You aren't wrong, but that also doesn't make him innocent either. I mean John Gotti can claim cops were always trying to find something to get him in too.

And what was the statement?  I'm sure any witness statements are for the better of the world and not to look after their own okole.  In this specific situation only.

And for other Trump "bombshell guilty" stuff, we had many "witness statements" as well, only turns out they were not accurate.  So is this another accurate one or another witch hunt?

And no one was trying to get stuff on Hitler during the 1936.

There is zero proof that he is mentally ill. Biden has been running rings around the GOP.

I am not privileged to what statements those people have made. Guess we will find out at trial.

I don't know what other bombshell things you are talking about so I can't answer that question.

It's taken some time, but ALL CHARGES against Donald Trump AND all co-defendants have been DROPPED.

Those who pleaded guilty must live with the consequences of their decision.

Side note: Is it just me, or has Tim been getting podcast lessons from Alex Jones?

That scenario Timcast presented is a tough one.  Serve the evil one or your loved ones will suffer or die.

I'll do anything for my loved ones.  Even succumb to the evil ones.  Just to save those I love.

But the minute that f*cker is not looking I will slash his throat and makes sure the last thing he sees is my face before he dies.

Tim's perspective is a little skewed now that he's rich-ish.  He has the resources and personal network to mount an effective counter-attack, but most of us would be financially and professionally ruined if we spent years going to court while the media ripped us to shreds.

Sometimes people need to think things through a little more thoroughly while imaging "what-if's" like "what if i'm living pay check to pay check while supporting a wife and 2 kids?"

I watch and listen to him more often nowadays.  I like about how in his past he went through some pretty hard financial times and now he's doing quite well.

Another thing I find interesting is because I'm hard of hearing, I have a hard time listening to people who talk fast.  My kids are hard to understand and people like Ben Shapiro for me is also very difficult for me to catch the gist of what he is saying.

But I tell my wife that for some reason I can understand Timcast pretty well.  He talks very fast but I can understand him without re-playing the podcast like I would Ben Shapiro.

But yeah, regular guys like me would probably do similar actions like that lawyer lady, especially if it will affect my family.
