You want a quiet, compliant President?

Because they do so well.

Let them, they can’t help themselves. Didn’t we just go through 4 months of impeachment with Trump coming out stronger? Stop letting the MSM lead you around. Follow the facts and truth which is always on Trumps side.

The voting public is 41% pro-Trump, 41% anti-Trump and 18% undecided. Like it or not, the 18% are influenced by this crap.

I think that Lindsey reflexively applied the prudential principle against potentially inflammatory comments by a President that might influence a jury. Yet the jury phase of the case is over and judges are supposed to be immune to the influence of even inflammatory comments by a President.

Judges are supposed to be immune to the influence of even inflammatory comments by a President. If not, the judge should recuse herself from the case — or be removed by the Court of Appeals. In any event, as President, Trump is the federal government’s chief executive and may criticize subordinate officials and give them direction as he thinks best. There is no law against a President doing what Trump said and did.

How can it be ongoing when Stone had already been tried, convicted and sentenced.

On appeal a lawyer could bring up that Trump’s rhetoric inflamed the Judge who then went overboard and gave the maximum sentence.

What the hell are you talking about? If it could be said that Trump (an outside interest) influenced a judge to through the book at Stone, that is solid grounds to throw the sentence out and start over. That would be in Stone's interest, AKA a good thing.

Trump could pardon Stone at any time, even now. Can’t figure out why he’d let this drag out unless Trumps after others somehow associated with this case.

I take it that you are not a lawyer..and certainly missed the part where i said that next time he does this you might not want the person to get off.

Trump is opening the door for an argument even if it really had nothing to do with Judges decision...and you may want Stone to walk but you might not want the next one to walk.

Do you really think there wont be a hint in the back of that judges mind of i will show him...especially if a liberal judge

Not all judges are unbiased in all cases..even though they are suppose to be.

I caught Andrew McCarthy on Fox Business a little while ago. He said the sentencing is up to the judge with input from the probation department. He said the DOJ sentencing guideline snafu is theatrical controversy.

Perhaps the idiotic press should STOP asking President Trump about the corrupt, disgusting, unfair way he has been treated.

I know if a large group of ill-meaning people got together and tried...day after day...to have me removed from my job...I would feel like pointing out the REAL HORROR of their actions.

I have an idea:

TELL, NO SCREAM, AT THE MEDIA, THE PRESS TO STOP ASKING HIM QUESTIONS LIKE...”WHAT DID YOU LEARN FROM YOUR IMPEACHMENT”

HOW MUCH IS ENOUGH FOR ONE MAN TO TAKE??????
