Yeah but you are bringing up how the dems are framing it
It’s not just how dems are framing it’s also how the donations were requested.
It seems foolish to sandbag associates when you may well need their good will and loyalty. And anyone who chooses to work with Trump from now on has to factor all the costs of potential legal jeopardy.

Sounds like it’s getting real.
Hey, it’s the traditional battle-cry of the wrongly accused and criminally framed:
Trump’s lawyers should chuck his phone into the Goldschlager lagoon at Mar-a-Lago.

Then Democrats can just keep on indicting Trump supporters and dissipate his war chest between myriads of indictees and 45/47’s has nothing to use to fight the major battle itself.
She can get a pardon when he is re-elected. Until then she can start her own go fund me page.

You mean if he gets re-elected.

RICO litigation is expensive.
If his co-defendants see that they’re getting ■■■■■■ financially, they will have more incentive to plea and cooperate. Do you really think Trump can draw on an infinite supply of one-way loyalty while ■■■■■■■ everyone over?

If you have an opinion on that you are free to give your opinion and back it up as you wish. I am not here to do your research.
No one can dtaw an infinite supply of loyalty. It would be one way, if he doesn’t pardon his supporters in 2025. We will have to wait and see if it is one way.

Significant? As compared to Fani Willis Will Have to Take Her Case to Federal Court?
JWK
“If this [the Trump Grand-jury proceeding] be not a star-chamber proceeding of the most stringent sort, what more is necessary to make it one?” ___ U.S. v Ju Toy
So:
• Assuming her case is moved to a federal court
• Assuming Trump wins in 2024
• Assuming the notoriously capricious Trump will pardon her
I’ll bet she has a smarter plan than this. Why would she leave her fate to so many things she has zero control over?
I didn’t ask you to do research nor did i ask you to support your position.
You are simply incorrect in that the request for donations were not being framed as a legal defense fund but as campaign funds until recently. With small print under the request for donations notifying that the requesting party can apportion it to legal feels.
I know the details because i researched it. I didn’t ask you to do it for me
And just as a sidenote since you decided to be a tiny bit flippant. If you had done the little bit of research on the subject you would have known that this isn’t just democrats using it as a cudgel. It’s real. The legal defense fund was finally just established. After years of asking for campaign donations and using them legally for legal fees

So your research is that he advised that the donation could be used for legal fees. Ok. .Don’t know why you think that shows my statement was wrong.
As to being fliippant, I just am not a fan of the tactic of posters asking questions that they obviously have the answer to in their heads.
Look up “Citizens United Decision”

That’s in the article he linked to several times in this thread, that he claims to have read all the way to the end.

He hasn’t been there to support them in their defense. Why should they believe he will pardon them or support them in any manner if he were to get elected.
Jenna Ellis asked this question yesterday.
It was wrong because small print is an issue and not simply the dems framing the issue especially since there is significant difference between the reason for the donation and the use.
And fair enough.

I’m fine with an understanding of the text of our Constitution, and its documented legislative intent, which gives context to its text.
Aside from that, what does that case have to do with the insane Georgia Indictment of Trump, which makes “Seeking Signature Verification Is ‘Conspiracy’”?
JWK
Those who reject abiding by the text of our Constitution, and the intentions and beliefs under which it was agree to, as documented from historical records ___ its framing and ratification debates which give context to its text ___ wish to remove the anchor and rudder of our constitutional system so they may then be free to “interpret” the Constitution to mean whatever they wish it to mean.
