    You wanna put people to death but don’t trust the investigators or prosecutors to not plant evidence

    Democrats are only really interested in the law if they can use it to target political enemies, and oh if they hadn't made it clear already targeting political enemies is a privilege strictly reserved to them. The Republicans mustn't(even though they didn't). Up is down in their bizarro world

    Martha didn’t think she had anything to hide, but she did.
    So you just think trump is a criminal but is unaware?

    You can call it what you want. His own words make him look foolish.

    Again.

    I'm not the one confusing the many many investigations into the Clown...

    He has every right to take the fifth, while we have every right to compare him to a mob boss with his own words..

    History isn't your strong suit either, I see. So Mueller couldn't find real criminal activity except for his assertion of obstruction, which she was convicted on. I make no speculation of what Trump did, or did not do. i cannot know it, but I can simply comment on the abuse of power that the SD of NY and the AG of NY are currently engaged in. You clap? It seems pavlovian...

    Its not completely unfounded, he brings a lot on his self. But he is has definitely been on the elites hit list every since he came down that escalator.

    He is quite literally the most investigated politician ever, and still not one charge... They better have something with the Mar-a-Lago stuff because this is starting to look an awful lot like some Soviet era BS.

    How dare he topple the Clintons and the Bushes strangle hold on American politics...

    The assumption is that any fruit of the civil would flow to the criminal. Do you deny that would be the case? Seems likely connected to the overarching strategy in any case. Sorry you don't seem interested in the big picture.

    No one said your rights don't apply in both scenarios. You can plead the 5th in a civil trial.

    Obstruction is a crime….
    I clap when criminals are brought to justice. You check their party affiliation first.

    Wise man, he knows he's innocent so he avoids a perjury trap, no General Flynn for him.

    Plenty of Leftist bureaucrats did the same thing and it was cool. Trump did exactly as he should have done.

    This proves my point completely
    Again, proves my point. The AG dropped the case without it going to the grand jury. Facts matter.
    Good. She has gone after his business dealings, as she should.
    Help her out? Name anyone that Trump has helped out. The only one he helps is himself.

    The 5th protects the innocent. You are innocent until they prove you are guilty. They have all the money and all the resources, so they shouldn’t need to ask you to make their case for them.

    Trump is indeed doing the right thing to not go rotting in jail.

    But justice always strikes in the end.

    Even if he does the exact opposite of what he says, he'll still have MAGAs like you to worship him.

    Trump is a victim.

    Even when he commits a crime or fomenting a coup, it's the fault of the Deep State.

    Entirely agree. The reality is that any information shared during the deposition would also have made it's way to the SD of NY and their persecution... I mean attempted prosecution.

    Before he used his family, etc., as an excuse, he actually said, “You see the mob takes the Fifth. If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?”
