What does "quietly" even mean? Didn't take out ads in Times Square?

Multiple things can be bad at the same time. It is also possible to fight without being barbaric.

Got it. So it's banned if elected, accountable officials decline to use taxpayer funds to purchase a book that might not be age appropriate.

By banned do you mean unable to be purchased by a private citizen by any legal means?

By far the best part of the service

This is only a good argument if the conduct regulated by the law is bad in and of itself.

Thanks for the link. All the down voted I'm getting suggest people think I am defending him, but I am just being a realist.

The link shows he acknowledged the US presidency moved on without him. However, he still maintains it was rigged.

That's the rub, and that's what the prosecutor has to show - Trump either knew or recklessly disregarded that the election was not rigged, and thus all his crazy actions were in bad faith.

Can the prosecutor prove that in court? Quite possibly. Is it the slam dunk that everyone in this thread seems to be celebrating? No.

Can you link me where he said he knew he lost in a valid election? I haven't seen that yet. Thanks!

That's actually the heart of the issue. The prosecution will have to prove that Trump either knew that he lost the election or recklessly disregarded that fact.

I don't understand why you are being down voted for this, other than people seem to really think this was somehow an admission of guilt and now he's going to jail.

I wish it was possible to discuss the actual nuances of this without being down voted, but anything beyond TRUMP BAD! gets ignored.
