Which is why Democrats would never dare convict Trump before the Republican primary finishes. They fear DeSantis in a general election much more than they fear Trump.
I see. The Deep State is stopping Trump from being convicted, now, while pretending to want to indict him, in order to supposedly expand Trump’s base of angry voters as a bulwark against the guy who just got outsmarted and politically outflanked by lawyers from Disneyland.

I can’t wait to see how this all changes next week.

This is also how they explain why the economy is almost always doing better with Democrat Presidents. Remember when they said the low unemployment rates under Obama were "made up" and "not real", then a few months after Trump took office his chief of staff said those same numbers were no longer made up. They became real with a Republucan President. These people are like children yet to hit puberty.

Here's what's up: https://www.pnj.com/story/news/crime/20 ... 088634007/

Jones and the truth have not been on the same page in the past. She posted at Daily Kos for a while before she was caught sockpuppeting. I wouldn't trust her unverified word on these type of claims.

Verify, verify, and then verify again. I've had potential clients claim persecution only to find out that any action taken against them by the authorities was justified. That doesn't mean that overzealous CPS personnel or prosecutors don't overstep their boundaries at times. It does mean however that all facts need to be gathered and combined with some healthy skepticism. People overemphasize their importance in the world. People lie and exaggerate and mislead for their own gain to one degree or another. People also don't want to take responsibility and overdo their victimhood at times. So, it's not surprising that this lady and the truth don't mix.

Maybe Disney, Universal, MGM, etc should all move to other states not run by an autocrat, and maybe public universities outside Florida should stop accepting transfer credits from Florida schools now that they're not allowed to get real educations anymore. Imagine the economic devastation that would ensue if Florida lost their largest employers and all that revenue from tourism which is the only reason why there is no state income tax. DeSantis is effectively biting the hand that feeds Floridians. Why do Conservatives always vote against their own interests?

Florida college students are still able to get a real education. I am not exactly sure why you think they can’t.
"I have learned with what evils tyranny infects a state. For it frustrates all the virtues, robs freedom of its lofty mood, and opens a school of fawning and terror, inasmuch as it leaves matters not to the wisdom of the laws, but to the angry whim of those who are in authority.”
