OK someone please pass along links to all these civil cases that ā€œmany peopleā€ have had and paid fines. I don’t believe I have heard of many and I like to keep informed as much as possible. Until then just more lies from the guy who at last count, I have heard, is some 7000+ and counting at a rate of 3 per Tweet.

Obama’s campaign was fined for delayed filing of reports, which they attributed to volume and inability keep up. Not a bad problem to have.

It’s a felony committed, according to sworn testimony, at your direction that you’ve been striving to cover up and minimize. Which is understandable! But it doesn’t matter how muddled some of the public are when the charges actually come down. A charge is a charge, whether your mom thinks you’re innocent or not.

Obama didn’t hire a seedy lawyer to conspire with a sleazy rag in order to pay off a lien star he’d hooked up with without protection while his wife was still convalescing from having given birth.

Oh…and both those ā€œgentlemenā€ have turned state’s evidence.

Not only is it a felony violation according to the penal code, it’s also a felony moral violation and any Christian should be mortified.

Fortunately, prosecutors and judges (for the most part) know the law and understand the differences between criminal and civil violations.

And, fortunately, jurors have the law explained to them by the Court - not by some fucking idiot co-conspirator former reality TV show host.

Then let’s have as much scrutiny as Obama and Clilnton went through turned to your affairs. Then the simple laws should be put into effect for tiny little things like collaborating with Russia to steal an election, falsifying documents, trafficking in stolen e-mails, raiding private medical offices, and petty stuff like that.

If one of your poor maids stole an ashtray from your living room table you’d have hustled her to the police station and charged her with grand theft.

I think that’s the difficulty with the financial industry - even rank outer circle petty guys like 45* -
they don’t see that lying to customers about stock value, taking a rakeoff whether good or bad, cheating on oversight forms and basically doing the work of hedge fund managing to be anything other than a sport. No consequences in the ā€˜real world’ for them, so what’s a little bribery with other people’s money between a man and his lawyer?

Totally. There’s any number of sleazy business people who push their luck and mostly get away with it because who writes and enforces the laws? Trump is just an extreme example because he’s mentally ill. And he’s dumb. So he had no sense of where the lines are, and didn’t listen to people who did. And most of all he ran for president.

So his full- throated defense is ā€œObama did it!ā€ Sounds plausible enough for the rubes.
