    Well, you're the one who wanted to know when she was going to indict, not me.

    You posted the thread that claimed it was imminent and that was a while ago, so, I was simply trying to get a sense of how you defined the word. No need to get all defensive.

    Is France a third world country?

    France: In 2018, former French President Nicolas Sarkozy was indicted on charges of corruption and influence peddling. He is accused of accepting millions of euros in illegal campaign funding from the regime of late Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi.

    Is Italy a third world country?

    Italy: In 2011, Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi was indicted on charges of paying an underage prostitute and abuse of power. He was ultimately acquitted of the charges, but he has faced several other legal challenges throughout his career.

    Is Israel a third world country?

    Israel: In 2019, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was indicted on charges of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust. He is accused of accepting gifts from wealthy businessmen and offering political favors in exchange for positive news coverage.

    Is Iceland a third world country?

    Iceland: In 2016, Iceland's Prime Minister Sigmundur Davíð Gunnlaugsson resigned after the Panama Papers revealed that he and his wife had set up a company in an offshore tax haven. He was later indicted for tax evasion.

    Is Spain a third world country?

    Spain: In 2018, Spain's Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy was ousted in a no-confidence vote following a corruption scandal involving his Popular Party. Several members of his party were indicted on charges of embezzlement, fraud, and money laundering.

    In other words, indicting a Prime Minister or President among the first world countries, AKA 'western developed nations',
    of which the US is a member, is NOT unusual.

    You see, these countries believe in the concept that 'no one is above the law' and if we do not, then rule of law is dead, and if rule of law is dead, then we become a third world country.

    Do the crime, do the time. Goes for everyone, including the president.

    I will accept the premise that if we are going to indict a President, it shouldn't be for a chickenshit charge, like the Hush Money payment. The 1/6 charges, that should be what Garland should go after, in my view.

    Of what relevance is what I think it means? The only thing that is relevant is what Fani thinks it means, hence I direct you to ask her.

    But you didn't actually take what I wrote at face value, did you? No, you didn't.

    And why are you so impatient? You know that governments are slow, as a general rule.

    I don't agree. If Trump is on the ballot, he could win. That would be disastrous.

    I'd rather have someone else on the ballot, even if their chances are better.

    You posted it in your title. Words are symbols that mean things. I'm curious to know what you meant by it.

    Apparently you do not wish to answer the question, which is also fine with me.

    Because they aren’t actually progressive and lose a danger to the nation.

    It reminds me when Republicans ask Democrats 'what is a woman?'. to me, that question insults my intelligence.

    That's a disingenuous question. why? All kids learn that mommy and daddy have different genitals round about 4-8 years of age

    When you ask a question to an adult, what children learn as children, you are insulting someone's intelligence'

    Because that isn't the question they are really asking.

    What Republicans are really asking to Democrats, is get them to defend or explain their position on gender fluidity (which to Republicans, is illogical. Hey, it's illogical to me, as well, by the way).

    So, I say to Republicans, ask the ****ing question you really are asking, ask an HONEST question.

    I would answer an HONEST question, if you could figure it out.

    What question are you really trying to ask, and don't tell me you want to know what I think 'imminent' means, because that's a stupid question, on it's face.

    Anything everyone learns in the 4th grade isn't a question that needs to be asked to intelligent adults (that's' why it's insulting to my intelligence).

    So, I repeat, what question are you really asking?

    Figure that one how, and I'll try and answer it.

    I'll tell you what you are really trying to ask:

    "Why is Willis taking so long when she said 'decisions are imminent'.

    My answer:

    I have no ****ing idea.

    That's rich given that Republicans attacked the seat of democracy. Republicans schemed to overturn the election.

    Don't lecture me on 'danger'. Republicans are a runaway crime syndicate:

    Crime in Republican White Houses towers over Democrats.

    And this chart was made only 1.8 years into Trump's presidency, the numbers are even worse for Republicans, now.

    That a Supreme Court Justice claimed that she couldn't define a woman insults the intelligence of every American.

    Maybe Bragg is trying to wear the GJ down by getting them to indict Trump just so they can be dismissed and get on with their lives.

    Trump winning? That depends on who the Democrats nominate. Only 32% of independents, the election deciders approve of the job Biden is doing as president. But independents come down in favor of Biden in a Trump vs. Biden rematch by a very slim 45-44 margin. That’s a far cry from the 54-41 margin they gave Biden in 2020. Trump might win if the election was today and it was a rematch of 2020.


    https://docs.cdn.yougov.com/nr7yjreihl/econTabReport.pdf


    Candidates are important. Biden was the right candidate to defeat Trump in 2020. But is he the right candidate going forward to 2024 to defeat Trump again? That is if Trump is the GOP nominee which today looks very likely. I don’t think so. I don’t think Harris is either. At least the way things stand today. There’s a long way to go, things can and usually do change. Personally, I think the Democrats should come up with a fresh, young face. Not the usual old foggies, Biden, Sanders, Warren etc. Not anyone who has run before. A new generation candidate. Like JFK was in 1960. Is there one? I think the Democrats need to start searching.


    I’ll make a prediction, if 2024 is Trump vs. the fresh, young face or Biden vs. the fresh, young face, the fresh young face will win. Neither Trump nor Biden is wanted by most Americans to become president in 2024. At least as of today.

    None of that happened, you were fooled by hyperbole. Democrats crimes go uninvestigated, unreported. Your stats are not valid for that reason. Those stats also automatically assume guilt for a multitude of cases were guilt is anything but certain.

    Dems are a genuine crime syndicate, and thier voters are ignoring it.
