if there's anything trump is immune to, it's all of these dozens upon dozens (hundreds?) of damning revelations, any one of which would torpedo anyone else's prospect of walking free, let alone having a career in politics, let alone being a fucking presidential nominee.

every media outlet fears trump's wrath, because anyone he criticizes gets death threats, even though everything he says is 100% false bullshit

if harris doesn't win this by a landslide, then buckle your fucking seatbelts

For those of us ignorant of the Logan act:

The Logan Act (1 Stat. 613, 18 U.S.C. § 953, enacted January 30, 1799) is a United States federal law that criminalizes the negotiation of a dispute between the United States and a foreign government by an unauthorized American citizen. The intent behind the Act is to prevent unauthorized negotiations from undermining the government's position.

I'm pretty sure Florida is a right to work state, meaning trump has the absolute right to contact his boss for direction whenever he pleases/needs guidance.

1. stop talking about it
2. Arrest the criminal

Why is this so hard?

Imagining that a prosecutor could achieve the burden of proof on this is wishful thinking. This is yet another post title passing off opinion as fact.

Actual title from the article:

Logan Act: Why it could be illegal for Trump to call Putin

Unless he or Putin come out and explicitly state he was performing diplomacy on behalf of the United States, and not e.g., conducting “personal business”, there is literally no case.

Sure that personal business is undoubtedly quid pro quo, but that’s technically not illegal… just corrupt as fuck.

And before he left office, he was diverting critically needed tests from our own first responders to Russia.

Shitbag.

And yet he's still on the ballot.

Maybe in four more years he can sorta be put on trial for it.

• "War" also revealed that Trump sent Putin COVID-19 testing machines during the early days of the pandemic for the Russian leader's personal use.

They're just pals, nothing wrong with palin around with your pals.

How did the party that's supposed to care for American values end up supporting a candidate selling their values to the lowest bidder?

This has to be a simulation. I'm so confused.

Oh, so he's calling him?
