All of a sudden there is this compassion for Trump to get a fair trial?
So you think unfair trials should be part of the system?
I use the word "fair" in the appropriate way -- and in the context of a trial in which the presumption of innocence prevails until evidence "proves" otherwise. And in order to be examined, evidence must at very minimum be produced.
What makes you think that there ever was a bias against him? The House activities were mainly investigation. The person being investigated very very rarely has a say in the investigation. That was not bias.
At least the OJ jurors did not openly state that they would not have a fair review of the evidence. Think of what the reaction would be if someone accused of being a major mafioso was being tried and the prosecutor, which is what the head of the Republicans is in the Senate trial, said that he was giving the accused mafioso the trial that their client wanted:
Once again, my astonishment knows no bounds! Billy Graham's (who founded CT) son Franklin goes so far as to say that "there is a 'liberal' element" that is responsible. Many other so-called "Christian" conservatives are mouthing similar nonsense.
These same Christians are the very ones who are all over everybody else's "morality" as if it was the most important thing on earth. Yet, here is a man who was having sex with porn stars while his wife was having his child, and who baldly claims that he can get away with grabbing women's (a little play on words, here) "kitties." Who has told more verified lies than anybody in the history of American government. Who has mocked and vilified decent people in the most un-Christian way possible, even in the face of their grief and suffering.
I am almost willing to bet hard cash that there are a lot of these so-called "Christian" conservatives who, if Trump grabbed the "kitties" of their wives and daughters, would have that thing bronzed as an immortal keep-sake!
I do not know where the Americans that I grew up knowing have gone -- but in their absence, the world is a lot sorrier place.
What's wrong with dreaming?
So instead of due process, it becomes Pelosi's little plaything. Oh, I get it all right.
You have it backwards again. It is the Republican Senators, Mitch McConnell especially that have promised that there would be no due process.
Your link title does not indicate that that was the claim of Lindsey Graham. He has been shown to be a complete hypocrite by his statements in the past and the present. He went after Clinton for a much lower crime and heavily advocated for his removal from office. Then when it came to Trump he originally had a very accurate assessment of the man. He essentially called him an idiot, unstable, and egomaniacal. Now Trump's behind is kissing sweet for the Grahamster. Once again, Mitch McConnell the leader of the Republican Senate said that there would not be fair trial. How is holding up the documents until a fair trial is agreed upon "extortion"?
Read the definition of ”Trumped up”. It doesn’t mean what you think it does.
Shhh! Don't tell him. Oh too late. But then he probably will not follow the link anyway.
