(16,616 posts)If there was such a "silver lining" in these rulings for Trump, he'd be Tweeting about them. Rather, he's ballistically enraged. He knows the score.

How long until a trial?
Can this affect a re-Impeach action as an additional charge to Ukraine misconduct or as a stand alone article?

(8,051 posts)Just so long as he goes after ALL the corruption. He could create a bunch of new jobs, and bring back some great attorneys to the Justice Dept.
He has to go after Mitch McConnell, for sure.

(36,055 posts)If he's not 100% in getting all corruption, that doesn't mean he falls short as a good AG.
I'm just urging trust and realistic expectations, is all. We have to get an AG who doesn't just know the job, but is a real bulldog in prioritized case building. With enough representative court cases, there should be a brake on GOP shenanigans, since authoritarians only respond to penalties from courts.

(2,356 posts)I share this optimism because NY has loooooooooong been ready, on multiple official levels, to take on this particular MF45 grifting parade, and I see dark downpour clouds over that parade, even a monsoon maybe.
