"Part of the answer might lie in this fact: 77 million Americans have criminal records, meaning they have at least been arrested. Many of these people may find themselves identifying with the 45th president because of their own experiences of being accused, arrested, charged, and forced to defend themselves"

Balderdash. They support him because they see through the utter BS the DemoMarxist party is pulling and realize the DemoMarxists are once again interfering in the election.

[Rastus]

Yeah, man, that’s it. We all support Donald Trump because we have records. Nothing to do with him being railroaded.

Persecuted in Chief

[HYPOCRACY]

What a maroon. Yeah I support Trump because I got arrested too, once... Or twice.

[kiryandil]

eff the BananAmerica clown "justice" system.

anarcho-tyranny at its worst.

[Raycpa]

Insightful and incite full article.

[roving]

Sounds like a few people sat around the desk brainstorming, trying to come up with something.

This article is crap,why wasn’t Hillary hounded for her crimes! Trump hasn’t done a damn thing wrong
What he does is expose the crooked politicians who should be in prison that’s what the problem is.
Trump saves the country half a million bucks by donating his salary to charity!
Trump threatens the government crime syndicate, that is their problem plain and simple

“..Or they may decide that there are just too many charges to follow and care about..”

It’s the “care about” part that is significant. I’d wager 7 in 10 have no idea what were talking about...and don’t care.

Sohrab Ahmari is the founder of Compact. He is an "Iranian-American" according to Wikipedia.

[EvilCapitalist]

Exactly. He’s being railroaded by the “The Swamp.”

[Chainmail]

What a weird article! We support Trump because he was an outstanding president, despite four full years of fake charges being levelled against him.

This is just more desperation by the Left to try to disable him and prevent him from returning, using a corrupt and visibly biased "justice" system.

If somebody got abused by cops in their own lives, that's just the maraschino cherry on top.

Is Christian Parenti dog-whistling that more & more Blacks are now supporting Donald John Trump?

That's good news. We all know that Blacks are mistreated by the police, and are this guilty be race in most cases, which is why the police must be defunded. But isn't she guilty of being a racist by suggesting this? 🤣

[rlmorel]

Exactly. That was my first thought on reading this.

We support Trump because we see the naked abuse of federal and state power against him, something we haven't seen so openly in our entire lives.

We understand this meme at a completely visceral level:

It isn't because 77 million American have criminal records.

It is because we recognize that under Leftist/Deep State control of our government, that 77 million Americans who have criminal records could easily, at the whim of tyrants, be 333,287,557 Americans, because we live in an oligarchy now, the rule of man, not law.

And depending on what the men in charge deem as a crime, any of us could be in a stinking hell-hole of a prison like the J-6 Protesters.

That is why we instinctively support Trump. Anyone who supports Trump is de facto AGAINST tyranny. Likewise, anyone who supports a Democrat is for tyranny, wittingly or not.

[Forward the Light Brigade]

People know its all BS. We watched the so called “Insurrection” and could see it wasn’t. Donald Trump wasn’t there with his AK-47, seizing the Capital Building with his well armed Proud Boys and Bikers for Trump, Taking Democrat’s as hostages and hosting the Trump flag over the building. He didn’t order the FBI to “Stand Down” No, that was No rebellion. When a Rebellion comes it will not be something that you must guess about. Like 1861, it will come with flags and banners, generals and men in Uniforms. No guessing will be needed.

"anarcho-tyranny at its worst. "

anarcho?

[joesbucks]

What criminals has he exposed?

[Demiurge2]

Some food for thought here. This could also explain why black American popular culture has become so toxic — essentially, it’s American prison culture taken outside.
