Trump on trial: Poll shows 3 in 5 people want ex-president to face trial before 2024 contest
Washington Examiner ^ | August 25, 2023 | Julia Johnson

Posted on 08/25/2023 1:56:31 PM PDT by Golden Eagle

Most people say former President Donald Trump should go to trial for his various cases regarding classified documents and attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election prior to the 2024 contest, in which he appears likely to be the Republican nominee.

According to a new POLITICO Magazine/Ipsos poll, 62% of people said they believe Trump should stand trial for his storage of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida, for which he was indicted in June, prior to the 2024 presidential election in November.

Sixty-one percent also believed he should stand trial for cases regarding alleged attempts to subvert the 2020 presidential election, which he was indicted for this month, prior to the 2024 contest.

Most people claimed to understand somewhat or very well the charges laid out against the former president. However, fewer respondents said so than when measured in June. More indictments have been handed down since the June survey.

Further, more than half of Americans said the trials should take place before the primaries in 2024, which are less than five months away.

Independents, though, increasingly think the trial should occur before the presidential election in November. According to the poll, 63% said so, and only 14% disagreed. Twenty-two percent reported they didn't know.

Golden Eagle, I hope you understand what frnewsjunkie is saying.

Thank you! I always hope to make the strongest point possible despite knowing that I’m one opinion out of many.

If you are unaware of what Biden has been doing.. That is a major problem.. It’s for sure the media isn’t reporting on it.. That’s no excuse.
A month ago someone posted a graphic picture oh Twitter of hunter raping his dead brother’s daughter. He was videoing it, but a picture was posted. I’m still bothered by that scene.. Her face.. Her uncle.. That and more is on that laptop.. Ignored by the total government.. And Joe says he’s proud of hunter.

Let me ask you if a Trump son was even close to that kind of situation.. You think it would be ignored?

The Biden family is corrupt.. Completely.

You like DeSantis.. He has time.. Not now. We need wisdom and determination. If he is not one of them, his family is a target. If he is one of them, retire!!

They don’t know and are picking and choosing as if this is normal.. It isn’t normal.. They have big plans and the younger folks have no idea.

When Castro came to town riding on an open convertible.. Defeated batista.. The crowds followed him.. Cheering..
3days later, Castro announced he was communist.. Confiscated all guns.. Took ownership of property and children..
Many fled to Florida.. Swam if no boat

This is a shortened version of how to lose a country. You want Trump out?.. If he goes.. You are next!

I just crossed the border. It was anything but wide open

You win the award for most ignorant post of the day. Corruption and injustice don't exist because you don't notice them? If you are going to defend Biden or his minions you would be more welcome on joebiden.com, or maybe the cartels have a website.

First, I am NOT a DeSantis fan. Second, I’ll never defend Hunter other than prove the charges/accusations. He’s a creep at best. Not all the laptop is federal issues. Where are the states, some conservative, where some of the laptop issues could be pressed? Frankly, Hunter was investigated by the Trump justice department. Trump then must be as corrupt as Joe.

You noted earlier that Joe’s enemies are being jailed. Of those indicted in Atlanta, only one is jailed and he clobbered an FBI agent trying to serve him. All others were given kid glove treatment. Their bookings were fast tracked so they could be in and out. If I’m ever in trouble, I hope to be treated at least as well as they were.

You forget quickly Trump played his I’m one of the elite cards last night when he said “I came in, I was treated very nicely, but it is what it is,” Trump told Newsmax. “I took a mugshot, which I’d never heard the words ‘mugshot’ — they didn’t teach me that at the Wharton School of Finance.” It’s too bad Wharton didn’t teach business ethics when he attended. Of course he’s not the only alum to hold that dubious distinction. Rajiv Goel (Wharton MBA ‘83) was found guilty of insider trading in 2012 after assisting former classmate Raj Rajaratnam (Wharton MBA ‘83) with information. Second-year Wharton MBA student Ashik Desai, who oversaw sales and analytics at Outcome Health, pleaded guilty of wire fraud in a $1 billion fraud scheme. During his Presidency, Trump in 2020 pardoned fellow alumnus Michael Milken (Wharton MBA ‘79) after Milken had pleaded guilty to six felonies including tax violations and securities fraud.

Maybe that should have been part of the curriculum.

But that was a purely elite comment.

Crossed that border? Going to Mexico? No questions. No documents to present. Just walk in. Coming back? Just be sure everything is in tip top shape. I was subjected to everything but a cavity search. I’ve been subjected to the searches in New Mexico and California along the highways. Even returning from Canada I’ve had my car and contents searched. I don’t do drugs. I don’t carry weapons. I don’t even bring back Cuban cigars. I was even concerned my rental was going to have the French Connection search. Don’t lecture me on open borders.

“Of course. And as I said, “I hope he can prove his innocence, not only for his sake, but for ours, as all Republicans are now on trial by proxy.”

OMG, you are absolute clueless.

There are die hard liberals who can’t force their mind to go where today’s liberal democrats are, in what they want this nation to be.

Anti Christianity.
Obama told the world we are not a Christian nation.
The fence riders have no idea what their world would be like if there was no God in our mix.
They.. Want control. Over all of us. If not for Trump, they would have it.
I don’t see any of the younger generation fit or able to stave off the power goals of the rabid left.

They have the gov.. The judges.. To do what they want. It’s a scary time.

Keep digging. US customs/BP are pretending to do their jobs while others pay the cartels. Mayorkas let in millions of illegal aliens with no end in sight. Either you are ignorant or lying. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and say ignorant.

Those jailed are from Jan 6

I have written before why I am a Trump supporter. It’s because of the man he is. It has nothing to do with what you mention.

He has lived a flamboyant life.. He probably has made mistakes.. He is a man who has a caring in his mind.. He loves this country. He would help anyone who needed him, in the outside world. He has done something right with his sons and daughter. He didn’t shy away from prayer.. He has basic tendencies that I appreciate.
I raised 4 sons and have 5 grandsons.. I like the man Trump!

The border is not open for US citizens, but it is open for illegal aliens.

You’re have your opinion. I respect that. But I disagree. I see a very selfish man who preys upon those seeking a perceived prayerful leader. He knows how to play those people.

he’s just another elite. His comment last night about Wharton was an elitist comment.

And I was counting on those promises.

Including his wall, which was breached more than 3,000 times since 2019. His impenetrable Rolls Royce of walls. Breached with common hardware store tools. His promised wall to keep out the illegals and their drugs, that mostly come through shipping ports and their diseases. Yep, stopped cold in their tracks at the wall.
