Just standard mob behavior, exactly what we should have as president folks! Nothing to see here!

I imagine that Trump was initially very very excited to see these indictments, since his name is plastered dozens of times on each page.

Looks like there's nothing that crazy that we didn't already know; Trump changed his travel plans so he could be present at Mar-a-Lago when his attorneys searched for the classified documents he was hiding from them, basically.

Well that is truly bananas. It seems like he's dead to rights on some of these felony charges. Which may end up slightly inconveniencing him. Wow.

If you or I had done any of that we'd be under the prison by now. I hate this bullshit. And he's allowed to walk free.

Yea, the social inequality in the states is terrible. Given how much we tout our rule of law, it's pretty ineffective when it comes to prosecuting traditionally powerful people.
