Trumps classified documents case dismissed by US judge. No case to answer.

Hurts him IMO, makes the Dems more motivated to vote who are annoyed he’s above justice.

And I think Jack Smith already planned a while ago to bring this case in NJ as he’s always been suspicious of Judge Cannon doing something like this.

Bit of a double bummer today. Two major football tournaments ends and Trump gets off with mishandling security documents.

Given the recent Supreme Court ruling(s) I imagine prosecutors and judges are probably weary of going after Trump as it could potentially end their careers if they get it wrong. Since he been shot at, the fury on US sites / forums to just leave him alone has grown exponentially. Also, the secret service failed to protect him, so how would they give 100% assurances they he would be protected if sent to prison. It seems some think this has been a conspiracy to help get him back in the white house and make all his court problems go away. That’s obviously not true but it does make you think, the timing, Joe now feeling sorry for him, court cases going away etc etc 🤔

JD Vance will be Trump's running mate.

Biden doesn't feel sorry for him, he's just saying what he has to. It's true that he's praying for the former president, but he's praying the next bullet doesn't miss. :D

Probably the worst pick he could’ve picked, apparently Don Jr fought for Vance so that says everything you need to know.

What willing candidates did he have to choose from? His last VP was on the verge of being hung. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Trump says he shouldn't be alive. First sensible thing I've ever heard him say. :)

It must be nice when you're in the dock to be able to appoint your own judge. :mrgreen:

If Trump decided to nuke the UK, I reckon our response would be, our special relationship with the US is far too important to let being nuked get in the way. :roll:

Don't think the USA would need to nuke the UK. They have over 10,000 personnel stationed here with some serious naughy equipment. Probably wouldn't take them long to overthrow the country if they so decided too etc.
