*** The Official MAGAposting thread ***

Dude. You jump at ridiculous shadows......I don't see why you can knowlingly read a fluff piece based on sensationalism and take it as any indication of reality.

You really should try getting in touch with reality.

This isn't a mere case of media bias. This is bigger.

Think about what kind of emotion and opinions are required to disseminate a piece like this.

First, you'd have to believe that Mueller's goal is to remove Trump from the presidency. That's not stated in the scope of his investigation. And it's been widely reported that Trump is officially not a target of the investigation. When Trump impugns Mueller's impartiality....CNN is the very first to shit all over him for being paranoid. When Trump suggests firing Mueller, they liken Trump to a tyrannical dictator who can't stand critical inquiry. Yet now we have a CNN contributor, and it's editorial board, suggesting that it's absolutely fine to pervert our justice system to generate preferable political outcomes.

How does that not make your head explode?

Think about what they're actually suggesting here. If Don Jr committed a crime, then shouldn't he simply be charged accordingly? Wouldn't that be how justice is served? Identify the criminal, present evidence, convict, and sentence. That's what I learned in school. But CNN apparently doesn't think perjury under congressional subpoena is all that big of a deal. They're ready to forget about it and give Don Jr a pass if daddy is willing to fall on the sword.

And why would CNN want that? Trump's not guilty of anything here. In fact, if the sum total of the Mueller investigation is a perjury charge against Don Jr.....then doesn't that kinda vindicate Trump? He's not charged with anything. He's not the target of any investigation. There's no evidence of him doing anything wrong. And yet, CNN would still like to see him brought down by this any way they can imagine.

Prosecutors give immunity to witnesses when they testify against people guilty of worse crimes. It's a tool used in the furtherance of justice. in this scenario, Trump is guilty of no crime. Taking Trump down doesn't serve any interest of justice AT ALL. Using prosecutorial powers for political purposes is exactly the kind of tyranny and fascism that CNN regularly accuses Trump of perpetrating.

In fact, it's a complete perversion of justice. That would be a WILD misuse of power. Imagine if we lived in a world where any minor crime, by any family member of a politician, can be leveraged by any politically motivated prosecutor to force that politician to resign his/her office. Do you REALLY wanna live in that kind of America? Why would you get your news from someone who does.

The office of POTUS is not a bargaining chip. Anyone who thinks that is dangerous. Anyone who gives a platform to someone like that is the enemy of the people.
