That's funny Hugh because every American Presidential election in my lifetime has been fought asking the types of Supreme Court justice that'd be appointed. That abortion rights, segregation, medical care are all up for grabs in a courtroom.

There's no need to be specific because you'd bog down the thread in sentence by sentence excruciating analysis as if that matters to MAGA Republicans. Trump is guilty in your head and I'll never change that (tbh, I've no want or need to).

Ukraine will get let down whoever takes the chair although slower and with a lot better PR than if Trump pulls the plug. I think I've said in this thread it's no skin off my nose if Trump goes to jail and I maintain that view.

They're not mutually exclusive positions.

I firmly believe that if Trump, after he lost. (and although there were questionable things that went on, he did lose) had said publicly that he had no intention to run again whatsoever……….none of those prosecutions happen.
I know you're not an American voter but would you change your mind if people who wanted him to lose, or off the ballot altogether, kept telling you that you are wrong?
