I'm all in favor of this just as soon as they also arrest Biden and the Clintons. I would love to see all of the corrupt politicians rotting jail. This is 100% politically motivated so that won't happen, but one can dream.

Trump I'm sure is just as scummy and corrupt as all the elite are, I just get pissed at the selective outrage.

Yeah, if he was locked up next to Biden and Hillary it would be fine. But if it's just him it's a problem.

The only way to actually hold politicians accountable would be to charge two politicians, one on each side, at the same time for similar crimes and arrest both. Any thing else will automatically be viewed as partisan. You can’t not charge Hillary for objectively breaking the law and committing worse crimes, then charge trump right after. And in general it seems bad precedent to devote resources into jailing political opposition

How about we just wait for the trial to play out? It will be the most watched case ever, every single “T” will be crossed and every “I” dotted..

Let’s hear the witnesses, see the evidence and let’s hear what Trump has to say under oath. We can finally get to the bottom of all this and move on.

This is good. It will set a precedent that a president can be indicted. Bad news for the Obama crew.

Biden is next. Of course he probably has a better chance of (you know) before they indict him.

Hillary should be going right now. But they won't do a darn thing.

Half the country hates Trump so much, they will burn the entirety of civilization down just to destroy him.

They've never cared about the consequences in the past so why would they now. They'll.do this and then conservatives will do it back. We are now a banana republic.

As an aside, I really hate it when people evoke the “our democracy”.

First off, there is multiple definitions for the term because its used figuratively and literally, and second, we dont live in a democracy in the United States.

Anyone remember when Dems said we needed to get Trump out of office because he’d use his position to enrich himself, crash the economy, bring us to the brink of nuclear war and imprison his enemies? Thank god that didn’t happen!
