  • That’s not a good parallel, it’s the politically ‘motivated’ part he’s referring to. If someone is being prosecuted because they’re running for office, and you have a legitimate argument that if they had chosen not to run for office the charges would have been dropped, it’s legitimate to say it’s politically motivated.

    On the other hand, if your crime was literally campaign finance crimes and voter manipulation, there’s a reasonable argument that ‘politically motivated’ isn’t necessarily a bad thing here. If you did a political crime, and seem likely to continue to be politically motivated to commit more crimes, it kind of makes sense that prosecuting you with a tiny bit of political intent isn’t totally unreasonable.







  • Let’s just hope that the votes he was pulling away from Trump were just because they needed somewhere to go and it was ‘Not Trump’ first, ‘Not Biden’ second, and ‘Not Democrat’ third.

    Harris at least fits the first two qualifications, which is what Trump’s campaign has been about for 3 years…‘Biden Bad’… Unfortunately for his campaign, he’s not the only one running who isn’t Biden and he’s doing a shit job of convincing people otherwise since he has spent practically 0 time signing any blame to someone as inconsequential as a Vice President at any point in any of those the years.

    And why would he… doesn’t make sense to dillute the blame when he knows there was no way Biden would ever willingly give up the chance to keep the power of the presidency in favor of anyone else… He certainly couldn’t imagine doing that himself.
