"If the Democratic Party wants to stand with anarchists, agitators, rioters, looters, and flag-burners, that is up to them, but I, as your president, will not be a part of it. We must always have law and order." -Trump speech at the 2020 Republic National Convention.
Law and order? Trump hopes we give up and ignore his crimes.
After becoming a hospital CEO, I was surprised by how many hospital leaders commit "perfect crimes." Some CEO's, Vice Presidents and prominent doctors get away with taking kickbacks or escaping sexual assault charges or embezzling money, and more.
As a federal prosecutor in the 1970's I saw criminals every day. But hospital leaders? How could they get away with crimes?
Not hard if the facts are ignored.
I remember my debut trial. "Not guilty" the foreman pronounced to a shocked judge, me, and even the defendant's own attorney.
A bigger shock came when the jurors said later. "Sure, he did it. So what?," one mentioned. "It was just a bomb threat," scoffed another. "He's a kid (19)."
The "kid" committed a perfect crime because jurors ignored the facts. Lawyers call it: "Jury nullification."
Recently, I asked you to be a leader deciding if you would hire someone with a serial criminal background. Now, you are a juror.
Americas will soon deliver a verdict in the world's most important case: Which candidate will lead the free world?
If you choose the former President you must ignore his conviction on 34 felony counts, his liability for rape, his guilt for bank fraud, and the four other major criminal cases pending against him.
One is Election Fixing. After the votes showed a Biden victory, Trump called Georgia's Republican Secretary of State (pictured) and ordered him to, "Find me 11,880 votes!"
January 6, 2021 is now among the darkest days in American Constitutional history. The former President faces obstruction of justice and other crimes for agitating the rioters looters, and flag-defacers. Over 1200 other participants have been charged and 750 convicted.
If elected, Trump's pardons will free him of everything possible and release hundreds of January 6 convicts. Law and order?
Detectives seek a criminal's "MO" (modus operandi.) We know Trump's con game.
He wants to commit the perfect crimes on the biggest stage possible and then sneer, "Gotcha!"
Will you think "So What" and let him get away with it?
