91 Criminal Charges, 2 Federal Trials, a NY Trial, a GA Trial
Rather than wanting to go to trial and clear his ill-repute, Donald Trump keeps using a strategy of delaying trials as long as possible and hoping to regain power to pardon himself and give himself the immunity of an omnipotent authoritarian bad guy. Trump should not be immune from being held accountable for the 91 serious crimes he is charged with. He should have to abide by laws as does everyone else.

This is the case in which Trump was recorded trying to urge Georgia Secretary of State Raffensperger to change the vote. “What I want to do is this.

Emoluments Charges – In January 2024, US House Democrats allege Trump accepted $7.8 Million from foreign governments while President in violation of the US Constitution. Former President Trump has Not been charged criminally for the emoluments charges YET.
Nowadays, probably due to the DOJ allowing the statute of limitations to lapse, nobody seems to be talking about charging Trump with crimes related to the reasons related to the reasons for the first impeachment. Remember the recording of what certainly sounded like a threat to withhold funds approved by Congress for Ukraine to defend itself from Russian annexation of territory unless Ukrainian President Zelenskyy did him “a favor” of investigating Trump’s political competitors, the Bidens. Abuse of power of the office of the President for Trumps own personal benefit seems to be just another typical day.
Some people say Trump is always putin himself first and America last. (Intentional spelling).
