if you call it lawfare without making a persuasive, affirmative case for why others whose similar behavior came to public and prosecutorial light wouldn't be pursued, then you are just in favor of elite impunity.
@interfluidity This is total BS.
Inn Trumps case, no others were ever prosecuted under the same circumstances.
Even the deluded leftwing (excuse the redundancy) legacy press referred to the "Novel" application of the law.
In the Case of the bulk of J6ers, How many people can you find serving time after a conviction for tresspassing, or being held without bail, as many were?
When green peace, or code pink interruped congress, were they charged? no. even if so, your conclusion is retarded.
@Phil Come on. The classified documents case was a slam dunk, anyone who was asked for return of classified docs and refused and lied about it would be convicted. Yes, others, including Biden, were sloppy, but always cooperated. The Georgia case was also a slam dunk, literally asking a governor to find votes. It's hard to find comparables because no one has been so brazen. Some of the J6ers may have been overprosecuted, but the violent ones certainly were not.
@interfluidity
No, he didn't refuse, did you see the documents? he was negotiating their return.
Was Biden prosecuted for such a thing? how about the Clintons?
Did you see that the FBI staged the photos to make it appear worse?
What Trump did in GA was little different than what Gore did in Florida. Gore was not prosecuted.
Did you see all the votes that PA found after they sent the republican poll watchers home?
And find votes isn't the same as create votes, which is what the dems do.
@Phil He said he returned them all! And then he hadn't! He was caught in subterfuge. He wasn't negotiating. Gore did not privately ask to find votes. He asked for public recounts. So did Trump! Nobody prosecuted Trump for that. It was desperate, but fine, entrely appropriate.
No, Gore asked for selective recounts in friendly districts and tried to block them in others. it was shady to any intellectualy honest person.
He never claimed in any of the back and forth that he had returned all the documents. He returned some of them and negotiations were ongoing.
Some of the documents were marked classified, but he had declassified them before leaving office, via EO, so no longer were.
Biden had some he was never leagally entitled to possess, in his garage.
@Phil maybe it was shady. but it was open. courts could review and perhaps appropriately review the selectiveness. Trump constantly challenged vote counts in urban districts. it's ugly, but not unlawful. meanwhile… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooks_Brothers_riot
i wasn't so exercised at the time, but i now agree that Bush v. Gore was the beginning of our long catastrophe.
privately asking a governor to "find votes" is quite a different thing. one of Trump's many novel contributions.
