Debatable.

But I will say being charged under the Espionage Act is a step up from finally going to prison for tax evasion.

What? Some people actually went to jail for not paying their taxes? Really?!?

LOL…They walked right into that one.

Espionage sounds so much sinister than memorabilia snafu.

Nemesis:

Good point about Fords pardon of Nixon. Could it be that Nixon had resigned?

Not sure I agree with your thought exercise and ultimately if someone is pardoned, they will forevermore be known as the individual that committed a crime who then received a presidential pardon.

Its not as if everyone magically forgets that Nixon was guilty of the crimes he committed or that he resigned as a result of this.

The Ford pardon of Nixon precluded what is happening with Trump today. Nixon’s roll in the Watergate cover up could have just as easily resulted in an acquittal as a conviction, regardless of whether he resigned or was impeached and removed. The point is, guilt was never established nor admitted in his acceptance of the pardon.

What people think following a pardon is no different than what they think following a jury acquittal. Take OJ Simpson for example. Public opinion on such proceedings is highly variable, flighting and has no bearing on legal opinion. In other words, let 'em eat cake.

Clearly you are not familiar with the Espionage Act.

Espionage act isn’t a cool euphemism like memorabilia snafu so no thank you.

Do you think Trump committed espionage in the normal usage of that word?

Nope … trolling. Just like you are doing now.

It is when you actually read the law and compare it to the legal definition of espionage.

It’s like the infamous Patriot Act … there is nothing patriotic about it.

The inflation reduction act somehow comes to mind.

My prediction is Trump is found guilty on this and several other charges and trials, although I cannot imagine he will be imprisoned. House arrest sounds more likely.

Ideally, I would like Biden to offer Trump a deal.

Trumps pleads guilty

Agrees to never seek public office again

House Confinement for 2 years is all he will need to serve.

Biden also agrees to drop out of the '24 race, since he is only doing it to stop Trump.

Who agrees this is the best of all outcomes?

Sounds reasonable but don’t forget the NY state court case. I expect that to have a similar outcome to the charges to the Trump Foundation.

Also, don’t forget the case where my bet is: the great state of Georgia, and the election interference.

Not even close

I think Former President Trump did a Trump all while his theme song “And I can do whatever I like” played in his head.

No one is accusing Trump of Espionage, that is simply the name of the act and it encompasses many different crimes. One of which is willingly removing classified material and obstructing their retrieval.

The triggers are like picking on a small autistic kid. Stop that.
