As it should be every other NATO country should pay their own way. Before Trump came in the US was footing a much larger piece of the pie both in money & military every one has always had the US as the sheriff & that's not the way it should be !

 

If it's all for one & one for all then every one should put in equally have it mirror the NFL system in some way and that way they have everything equally split and no 1 country has the biggest burden weather it be militarily or monetarily .

In your scenario are we the New England Patriots? 😉

You people crack me up with your ridiculous rabbit holes. So if I understand it correctly, this young lady testified that the President wanted to steer the car from the back seat? I’m pretty sure that’s not a crime. Note that she didn’t say that the President said anything even remotely close to anything about wanting to overturn the election, destroy ‘democracy’, or organize a coup. This is all such junior high garbage!

That was meant to show that Trump is crazy.  It was stupid, but that was their goal.  Same with the "there were AR-15s at the rally" claim, which is immaterial because there weren't any outside the Capitol, much less inside.

Yeah.  My point being that since Trump and the Repubs want all the countries to equally share it, the Dems will want the US to foot the entire bill.

Keep your sense of humor T Master. None of this is, or should be, anything more than banter on a message board. 👍

Her testimony shows:

  • Trump did not care if there were weapons in the crowd
  • Trump wanted to be with the people marching on the Capitol

You're right that neither of those things are a crime. You couldn't indict anyone on that. But you build a case through multiple witnesses and testimony. We had multiple people testifying in a previous hearing that Trump wanted to overturn the election and commit crimes. Hutchinson's testimony might be able to support other evidence and testimony, but I still think incitement is a steep hill for a prosecutor to climb.

 

Everyone is playing the jump to conclusions game, here. Trump wanted the metal detectors at the ellipse removed and he wanted to be with the crowd marching on the Capitol. Those are important details. They are not nothing. But they're also not everything.

Yah great job Mr President pissing off our closest allie to the north by stopping the pipe line & them having them eat billions in product costs already built for the pipe line (selling it at scrap prices) then pissing off those countries that wanted the submarines built but couldn't because he screwed the pooch on that one .

 

Oh then don't forget how great a job he did when leaving Afghanistan pulling all military first then leaving all those innocent people there to face the taliban all by them selves oh yah & Putin probably only doing what he is doing because he knows the new POTUS has no balls to retaliate ah great foreign policy there Mr P !

 

If the expanding of NATO is a good thing & we don't have to pay for every body elses NATO bill or defend whoever else then it might be a good thing but i'm thinking we will probably wind up paying more than most others just because the US is such a nice country ...

 

But 1 out of 10 ain't bad !! Keep up the good work Mr Biden :worthy:

Hello T Master, hope your day is a good one. Stronger NATO. Putin/Trump armies being chewed up and spit out. He got us out of the mess in Afgahistan and has let it be known to China that Taiwan is our friend and we are going to fight for our friends. 

 

Good job Mr. Biden!

Her testimony was that she heard this from her boss, who heard it from the Secret Service.

Actually, she heard the magnometer comment herself. So that is not hearsay.

 

She stated under oath that multiple people told her that Trump wanted to go to the Capitol. The next step would be to get that testimony from those people, like Mark Meadows. Unfortunately, Meadows won't testify because he is worried about perjuring himself.

This could be a blessing in disguise, for those of us who don’t want Trump to run again…

Unfortunately you’re wrong. Her testimony doesn’t show whether he wanted to be with the crowd to stop them or urge them on. Since the ONLY words we have from the President were to March peacefully….we have to assume he was intent on stopping the violence.

If you were correct, it would be impossible to prosecute mob bosses.

 

"He said to take care of them! That doesn't mean that he wanted them dead!"

 

Words certainly matter, but actions matter more. If I held a rally down the street from Tom Brady's house and spoke about how upset I was about Tom Brady, and told security that they should allow people to my rally with weapons, and told the audience that they needed to fight like hell or they wouldn't have a country any more, and then told everyone to march to Tom Brady's house, but threw in the word "peacefully" at the end, then I'm all good, right?

Short answer….yes, you’re good. Nobody is guilty of a crime because you think you know what they’re thinking. Our system doesn’t work that way no matter how much you seem desperate that it does.

What a great segment by MK. Fair criticism of Trump’s actions, with a devastating takedown of the dem dog n pony show.

For the record, I think an incitement charge against Trump has a big hill to climb.

 

But to claim that simply saying "peacefully" negates any other context or history around his other words and actions is laughable. That would be a loophole so big as to allow criminals to run wild. "I want you to go deliver a message to that other gang, but do it peacefully..."

 

Ultimately, in the real world (not the fabulous world of criminal conspiracies being impossible to prosecute that you seem to think we live in), this would be up to a jury to decide. As I said, I am not confident they would decide it against Trump, but to dismiss it out of hand is ridiculous.
