    Do people think that having 4 criminal cases pending against you is meaningless? Like… This is accurate and prosecutions are moving forward. The fuck do you want? That’s how it works.

      I assume it’s just the pace, but overall there’s plenty of reasons to be frustrated.

      There’s already talk about how some of these cases might not be resolved until after the election, at which point, depending on how it goes, could be extremely problematic.

      It feels frustrating because it’s mid-2023, and we may “run out of time” by end of 2024. People ask what the fuck was happening for 2.5 years? The reality of course is justice is not always, nor necessarily should be swift, and getting these investigations even started takes time to say nothing of collecting evidence and putting together a case. But also, 20 years ago even a single criminal indictment probably would have spelled the end of a Presidential campaign, and instead, Trump is successfully fundraising off of these charges and leading the polls.

      It’s all just bonkers.

      Yep. Its a slow process.

      They are collecting evidence. Witness statements and such.

      They are NOT rushing this. It would be a shitshow.

        He stole from charities and comitted a plethora of other crimes, if the DOJ was doing their job, he should never have been in a position to campaign for president in the first place.

      There are a lot of people in this thread who became legal experts by passing the Reddit bar exam, or something of equally imaginary significance.
