ABC News ^ | June 9, 2023 | Ivan Pereira

Donald Trump was hit with a sweeping 37-count indictment from the special counsel's office Thursday, alleging that he willfully retained documents containing the nation's most sensitive secrets, including nuclear programs, after he left office, showed some of them on at least two occasions and then tried to obstruct the investigation into their whereabouts.

Federal prosecutors unsealed the indictment Friday against the former president and his aide Walt Nauta in connection with his handling of government documents.

And Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton are charged with NO counts for doing the same thing, only much, much worse and on a much grander scale.

Anyone not supporting Trump at this point is clearly part of the enemy.

When they trumped up a bunch of charges against Caesar, he overturned the regime and ended the Roman Republic.

Many here have relatives, coworkers, neighbors and associates who are laughing, cheering and high five-ing.

One man I heard in person said a few weeks ago: “At least a few people on the other side have barely enough brains to figure out Trump is a crook who is guilty of a lot of things.”

I think he will quickly dispense with this. But I’ll just say it. There IS a line somewhere. Naysayers say there is not, but it’s very real. If they ever dare handcuff him, or incarcerate him, I predict Americans will storm the Bastille and break him out and it’ll make them wish for the good old days of January 6th again.

The party has to start somewhere. The communists and DC party aren’t just going to go away. Republicans aren’t coming to the rescue.

Who cares what that deep-state leftist says.

I heartily agree! Every (R) primary contender should terminate his/her campaign and join Team Trump. They will not - especially Judas Pence.

It seems as if there is almost no way for even a totally innocent person to avoid going to jail once he is criminally indicted by a federal district attorney/federal Grand Jury. The task of defending himself against what will surely be an overwhelming onslaught delivered by seemingly endless federal artillery seems, for all practical purposes, to be hopeless, leading the overwhelming majority of criminal defendants to plead guilty to some lesser crime with the expectation of at least some jail time.

Christie and Romney are already piling on. The horrible thing is, the odds seem to be such that they will never be forced to eat crow!

Oh, so it’s like the 34 count indictment in New York, hiking up the numbers just because.

I am genuinely curious why you think he is “deep-state”.

He openly blames the CIA for his uncle’s death.
He is against the COVID vaccines.
He openly says COVID was created in the Wuhan lab with the help of the US government.
He says the whole government bureaucracy is captured by the industries they regulate.
He is against funding Ukraine and says we instigated it.
He is against the forever regime change wars.

These all lead me to believe he is the exact opposite of deep-state. Maybe we have different definitions of deep-state.

I am in no way convinced that I am right in my assessment so I would love for more information to go on. Please enlighten me.

Yes to what you said, to the point they won’t know what hit ‘em.

If the economy tanks next year they won’t be laughing and cheering.

I hope many democrat partisans have their nonessential employment evaporate like the rain in Puerto Rico.
