Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor.

Not true at all, just watch the interview he did last night...https://hannity.com/media-room/theyre-wrong-trump-shuts-down-critics-who-say-hed-seek-retribution-if-elected-it-has-to-stop-watch/
Yeah, par for the course for Hannity and anything fox news related, misleading headline and quote, from a misleading non-answer by Trump that's so all over the place it's hard to follow. Even the tiny little portion they clipped out, he goes on to say he has "every right" to go after Biden if elected.
And his accusations that Biden is directing his prosecution (especially ridiculous when two of the cases are state cases) are all projection anyways to distract from the fact that he's already tried to interfere at the justice department many times when he was president.

Such a short memory Trump has. So yes, it is very true, and he's already tried to do it many times. I know you're probably a troll posting misinformation, this comment is for anyone else reading.
All the news sources you mention are the same ones that said the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation
Got Damn son, you didn't just have a glass of the fucking Kool Aid, you drank the entire pitcher and asked for more.
Exactly what someone drinking all the kool-aid would say
bad bot
Because it was. J
If it was, it wouldn't have been entered into evidence in the trial
Geeze dude, half of the shit in there is out of Trump's own mouth. The first quote I listed was from the interview you posted! From Sean Hannity! If you're not just a troll, you really need to take a step back and at least listen to some of the things your own god king is saying.
And yeah I'll be sure not to vote for Hunter Biden or his laptop for president, thanks.
Trump said he's not going to weaponize the justice department to go after his political enemies because what's going on now has to stop even though he would have every right to do so. I do listen to what says, including the context which is something a lot of people like to leave out I noticed
Oh so he said a different thing one time and that's the absolute truth? Lol
He's been saying that, the fake news just like to cherry pick everything he says. Sadly, a lot of people just aren't very bright and they buy into it just like when they rambled on about the Hunter Biden laptop telling people it was Russian disinformation. It's just government propaganda
It’s apparent that inconvenient truths make you feel sad.
Oh you mean the laptop that had no chain of custody, and let's say it's all true, literally nothing illegal?
Yeah but remember there was a dick...🤔
Plenty of evidence of illegal activities on the laptop, drugs, prostitution, text and emails implementing him and others in more crimes. They just want you to believe there was nothing but d*ck pics on it
0 chain of custody. 0 proof of truth of evidence, or he'd be in court, like he literally is now.
Lol, what do you think it is that got him into court? If ut wasn't for the text messages on his laptop and him writing a book about it, he would have never been in court in the first place because they wouldn't have known he lied on the form
Guilty on all 34 counts you little girl
Jaja hannity 🤡
Wow, how old are you, like 10?
Ja ja did you just get back from your ban ja ja 😂
