I'm sure the January 6th Committee feels the same way about Trump.

No One Likes the January 6th Rioters

Dan Pfeiffer: "From a purely political perspective, Trump’s decision to support the rioters is insane. A January 2024 CBS News poll found that nearly 80% of voters disapprove of the actions of the people who entered the Capitol on January 6th. Even a majority of self-identified MAGA Republicans di

Wonder why it took this long to identify her. She was walking around on January 6th without wearing a mask.

That judge should have been removed from this case a long time ago. She was appointed by Trump and is clearly doing everything in her power to help him.

To be fair, they say most people would fail that test if they had to take it.

I agree. I dont get why she's still there.

So they can run out the clock on his case before November.

Yes, but most of those aren't MAGA also aren't chanting "deport, deport. deport" either.

He gets away with everything.

He gets away with everything.

I don't agree. He's on the hook for over $600M and in order to appeal, he's got to post a bond. Can that get reduced? Maybe, but he's got problems. As far as the criminal cases go, this points out something I've said for a long time about those "scales of justice". If you can pay a lot of lawyers, that money tips the scales. He's got one shot......to get elected. If that fails, it's over for him. I think at least one of those trials will be completed before November and I'm not sure a conviction is much, if at all, worse than being on trial during your presidential campaign.

Trump has indefinitely delayed his Jan. 6 criminal trial. Hundreds of his supporters haven't been so lucky.

It’s unclear when — or if — former President Donald Trump will go to trial on Jan. 6 charges, but many of his supporters are facing the consequences of actions they say he directed.

In normal times just being indicted would cost you votes. Now? It just raises your popularity. I wish one of the trials would be complete by November, but Trump seems to be winning the delay game. Trump deserves more than just being broke, he needs to be in jail.
