And history will remember Merrick Garland as an accessory to America's downfall for not prosecuting Trump's very obvious federal crimes and instead leaving it up to the states. Possibly a willing one, if history is feeling particularly sassy.

I'm of two minds on merrick garland. Part of me does indeed think he's a ******* coward.
But... part of me also thinks that he's waiting for the state level stuff to start before indicting because then it wasn't the federal government that arrested trump. His cult is armed to the ******* teeth and so hopped up on propaganda and lies that they are literally bleeding coolaid. They're also some of the stupidest folks on the continent and with just a little misdirection: they won't even notice or care when the alphabet soup steps in because they'll be entirely focused on new york for daring to stop great leader.
He ought to be able to pay for a lawyer smart enough to keep him off the stand. But maybe he’ll insist. That would be good for a laugh. He doesn’t even know what the truth is.
I wonder what the record is for most pleading of the Fifth in one trial. I feel like we're about to see it broken.
He's been indicted: the only way he doesn't get questioned under oath now is if he runs away. It's already game over: we're just waiting for the cut scene to end.
This is a silly take. The Watergate case took three years to put together, and that was stealing cookies from Girl Scouts compared to the breadth of the former guy's criming.
No, you have the explicit right not to testify in your own criminal case.
Watergate wasn't about breaking into a hotel. It was ALSO a broad, multi-faceted conspiracy to stay in office. Not stealing cookies at all.

a grifter to the end.
If he's gonna get clear of this and everything else coming this year, he's gonna need expensive lawyers. More expensive than Giuliani for sure.As left and right fundraise after indictment, Trump campaign says it raises over $4M in 24 hours

And yet he'll hire the very finest... looking traffic lawyer in southern florida late night television.
Trump Lowers the Mar-a-Lago Flag to Half-Staff Over the 'Death of America' After His Indictment and Americans Can't Stop Laughing
I’m sorry, but I can’t stop laughing. Donald Trump is such a drama queen…I can’t even take it. As basically everyone knows by now, Trump has finally been indicted for SOMETHING. It wasn’t the case we wanted him indicted for, at least not at first. The Stormy Daniels case is the weakest case and...
They're only expensive if he pays them.
Turns out Trump was actively hiding documents in Mar-A-Lago, personally moving them after getting the subpoena:
MMMMmmm
That's the good shit right there.

If he listened to the few smart lawyers he had, he wouldn't be in this mess in the first place. And the dumb ones are going on the stand, attorney-client privilege doesn't work when the attorney and client are complicit in the crime.
oooohhhh, 30 days in jail (which he will never get.) and 1K fine.
"Punishable by fine" means "legal with fee". Charge him 1% gross based on his taxes for every infraction and watch how fast he actually shuts up, because trump is STILL fund raising faster than he can talk about it and some shmuck in florida or georgia will be paying his one time fine.

At this point, just shutting him up for a month would be worth it to me. The American legal system is a bad joke anyway, so I'll take what I can get.
