Then you should know better. A jury trial is a very unreliable place to try to determine truth. A jury verdict is simply a matter of opinion. It is required to convict a person of a crime, but not sufficient to determine the truth of a crime. The number of wrongly convicted and reversed death sentences is evidence of that.

But, the evidence available publicly in this case is sufficient to conclude that Trump is guilty. Defending Trump is not a matter of truth, but politics.


And how do you know that evidence is true, pray tell?

And I don't believe Trump is an angel, very few of us are. I also don't believe he is a devil (but you seem to), again very few of us are.

You forget that most of the money the government spends goes to individuals and family.


Some individuals and family, not all, and it is not evenly collected or paid; the more you make, the more you pay and the less you get by %, the less you make, the less you pay and the more you get by %.

Amen, I think I will break out my Brownie Hawkeye so I can join the mirrorless crowd.


I used to own one studio model Graflex and one news model Speed Graphic 4x5, they were mirrorless.
For that matter so was my Argus C3.

“Without the Bush and Trump tax cuts, debt as a percentage of the economy would be declining permanently.“


But individual and family incomes would also be permanently lower. The debt would be lower if Congress spent less money. One day they will have to control the deficiet and start paying it off. The longer they wait the more it is going to hurt everyone.

I taught economics for a while.

In more normal times being an "adjudicated rapist" is career ending ... period. But not now. Jesus wept.


Sexual Abuse is what the jury found. Not rape. Sexual Abuse and Sexual Harassment can be looking, leering, words or gestures without getting anywhere near the person.

Just like "Assault" is threatening in such as way someone fears injury. Actual injury or just touching is "Assault and Battery". Legally two different things.

Trump did it.


You believe he did it, but are you correct? Until proven one way or the other it is an opinion, not a fact. Once proven it is either a true fact and your opinion is correct or it is a false fact and your opinion in incorrect.

Yes, a lot of my High School and Jr High School students had trouble with fact vs opinion and true vs false. For that matter, so did some of the other teachers.

Here's a fact for you.

Until yesterday, trump had only been campaigning on weekends, so the NY Court Case has NOT been keeping trump from campaigning!

Then the two campaign events trump held yesterday were utter fiasco's!

The sharp decline in trump's mental state of mind has been extremely visible.

They're using the equivalent of an adult picture book to keep trump calm in the courtroom. What a waste of natural resources with all of the paper used to print those "happy" trump articles.
Here's a fact for you. br br Until yesterday, tru... (show quote)


What dimension are you spending your spare time in? I don't think I want to go there.

Trump is accused of falsifying business records with the intent to violate federal campaign finance limits, unlawfully influence the 2016 U.S. presidential election, and commit tax fraud.


accused of does not mean committed. I could accuse you of roasting Bald Eagles at a picnic. That doesn't mean you did it. It just means I claimed you did it.

It is called, don't eat it if you can't clean/wash it.

My Grandfather sprayed his fields before planting and before any fruit, corn etc. was to edible stage. After that he sprayed a barrier around the fields but not the food crops themselves. We had orders to leave the crows and other birds alone since the insects they ate would have done more damage than the birds would eating things. He would plant a few tomato plants in the rows of corn, tobacco or along the edges of the pastures. Those were for snacking while working, he carried a shaker of salt in cellophane in his pocket and either wiped them down with a handkerchief or washed them in the creek. Same for the pears, apples or cherries in the orchard, wipe or rinse and have a snack.

Frightening in so many ways.


enjoy your fantasizing about how awful Trump is.

Most polls show the chances of Trump winning are very high.
If that happens then you can really have a ball yelling, screaming, crying, flagellating yourself etc. etc.
And I will then have even more laughs over your posts.

Nice image.
to continue: Bite on these and feel the pain

I like hot/spicy food but as I get older (78) I find I can't eat them like I used to years ago.

They must have been running from your dad! Glad you enjoyed them!!!


Could be.

Through the St Louis Shriner's Dad knew a guy who owned a farm in Illinois along the Mississippi and leased hunting rights from other farmers. He ran an upscale (as in rich guys) hunting club. After he retired Dad worked there as a guide during duck and goose season. He got to hunt free just for keeping the rich guys from shooting each other or themselves and making sure they got their limit. He would shoot at the same time they did, at the same bird, then claim he missed his bird, but they got theirs. And some of them were stupid or egotistical enough to believe him. The fairly rare ones who were good hunters were his favorites to guide. Then he could just have a nice day of hunting together. And like true outdoors people/hunters, they would often spend time just calling the birds and watching them landing and taking off without shooting any. Just enjoy the day and the birds, along with good conversation about whatever.
