    What chance is that he did it on purpose?

    To upset democrats (because the case against Hunter), but also to rile up Republicans that “democrats are taking our guns away”.

    We never heard about him buying gun, when he could do so legally. He also doesn’t give impression like he cares about guns at all.

      Zero. He’s not that calculating. He’s a moron that instinctually manipulates and cons people through his incessant narcissism only in the present.

        He’s like a young Anakin Skywalker in The Phantom Menace flying a fighter for the first time. “I‘ll try spinning, that’s a good trick!” Except it’s whatever nonsense his amphetamine fueled brain latched onto most recently. And his base licks it up over and over. The media talks about him like he’s some master manipulator. He’s just a dog chasing a car that keeps catching the car because the fucking car keeps stopping for him to catch it.

        Calling him moron is what helped him multiple times get out of responsibility (“he didn’t know”, “that’s how he is”, “he shouldn’t testify, because he could incriminate himself”, like what?).

        Even now with the indictments including 91 felonies he is treated so much better than somebody caught with a small bag of weed.

        Don’t contribute to this.

          Being a moron isn’t an excuse for crimes, nor is it the reason for a cop-out for the kid gloves he’s being handled with. You’re flagrantly misattributing his being a moron and the entirety of us calling him such as a reason he’s being patted on the head like a child.

          He’s being coddled in a (misguided, imo) manner to give him absolutely ZERO grounds for a successful appeal in any of his cases. He’s being given ALL the legal rope to hang himself with.

          He’s already openly admitted to Mar-a-Lago crimes from TrophShendral posts and interviews that wouldn’t have existed had he already rightfully been behind bars awaiting trial.

        “IT’S THE LAW.” says Judge Dredd, as he instantly convicts and sentences the gelatinous orange blob to be executed on the spot. A napalm round should do the trick. There is no reason to drag this out, after all the former reality TV personality was probably the most obvious, unrepentant and insufferable criminals he’d ever had the pleasure of eliminating.

        The law only matters if it is enforced, and there are strong pressures to not enforce it, and because large number of people call him moron, this is being used by his people to get him off the hook (“he didn’t know” even though that was never a valid excuse, on top of that he can afford lawyers that charge more for the case that we make in our lifetime)

          So I guess you wouldn’t charge a crime based on what people are saying and their ability to have lawyers? Ever meet a US District Attorney? Because I assure you, they could care less.

            You misunderstand me. This is not what I want, but what often happens. This is why selecting AG and DA are important. Trump didn’t for charged during presidency, because his people didn’t allow it. Even now he is treated with kids glowes.
