    My thought as to what’s happening behind the chambers doors: the question of whether the prosecution of a main candidate for POTUS is “election interference” is a political one. A stupid and dangerous one, but still a question. Courts HATE to decide political questions, generally. So, to avoid that, this court is making a bet…and like all bets, it carries risk. If Trump loses the election, then the political question goes away: prosecute him to your heart’s content. That’s what they’re hoping for. But if he wins, then the stakes of the legal question just got incredibly high. It’s not a terrible bet, but the negative outcome if the bet was bad are much higher than the negative consequences of ruling today.
    TLDR; the court is hoping that the problem just goes away when Trump loses.

    … Or if he drops dead from being massive pile of shit

    It's always been a moving target depending on whether he's dealing with taxes, insurance, or loans.  I find it astonishing that I can go before the Travis County Central Appraisal District to dispute the value of my home and they will stick a flashlight up my ass to argue 1%, but Trump gets away with +/- 50% easily.

    That’s the power of a fake tan, brah

    No, this is who he has always been.  It's just been left simmering under the surface until he really hit the national stage, but this is who he's always been; a cousin fucking jackass.  

    He got a lot of credit for stuff he was partially involved with, like the Mob takedown via RICO in New York.  Yes he was there, and yes he was in charge of the DA's office, but to say it was just him is ridiculous.  In the mean time, he soaked up the limelight and acting as if the entire operation was entirely his idea, never mind the 1000s of people that actually put it together.  

    Cool man. I’m not defending his ass. I was mostly oversees way back in the ‘when’  and seriously don’t know the details 

    I appreciate y’all’s perspectives
