People are too queasy about prosecuting Trump for his hush money deals. From me. thebulwark.com/why-trumps-hus…
Remember what happened to Denny Hastert? I bet you don’t. He went to prison for 13 months. Not bc he molested boys, which he admitted. Because of the fraudulent bank withdrawals to hush it up. Hastert claimed he was extorted. The court didn’t buy it. thebulwark.com/why-trumps-hus…
Maybe Trump isn’t indicted. Or maybe he is and gets off. Is that okay? The hush money wasn’t used to settle a personal matter. They were BS deals that didn’t hold up in court that were used to deceive the public and withhold information from voters.
@amandacarpenter @Timodc Please note this pedo like 90% of them is Republican...
@amandacarpenter Still not the same thing. Good try.
@amandacarpenter Don't forget Clinton's HUD Secretary, Henry Cisneros. Indicted and pled guilty to lying to the FBI about how much he was paying a former mistress.
@amandacarpenter Buried very deep in the story. Anybody, who isn't disingenuous, knows there is no crime. Just scummy behavior. Nothing new for DC politicians
@amandacarpenter @Timodc And Hastert was the Constitutional peer to the POTUS, so prosecution of such an individual is not unprecedented.
