RFK Jr. slams Trump verdict: ‘Profoundly undemocratic’
The Hill ^ | 5/31/2024 | Caroline Vakil

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. slammed the jury’s verdict in former President Trump’s New York hush money case Thursday, calling it “profoundly undemocratic” and warning it will “backfire” against Democrats in November. “America deserves a President who can win at the ballot box without compromising our government’s separation of powers or weaponizing the courts. You can’t save democracy by destroying it first,” Kennedy wrote on the social platform X. “The Democrats are afraid they will lose in the voting booth, so instead they go after President Trump in the courtroom.”

He’s still a lefty on most stuff, with the exception of forced vaccinations and stuff like that. I just credit his honesty in that he doesn’t try to hide his position, play shell games, and pull dirty tricks.

The voting population is just one of the factors. We have elected republicans in the House and Senate, that cannot be bothered to fight beyond making feisty speeches. For years the House and Senate republicans, outside of a few actual mavericks, have been funding, tolerating extreme democrats. Because of this our government bureaucracies have been corrupted by the liberals with extreme partisans who have no problem with law breaking by the democrats and help to cover up for them.

We have been voting in republicans who have no principles at all, no fighting spirit. For years, we have republican "activitists", "strategists" who come and tell us that we need to vote for the republican regardless of their ideals. We see that even here on FR. The corrupt liberals will come and post saying we should vote for a Mitt Romney because he is better than a democrat. Because of this the Republican party has been neutered and made ineffective.

Was it Julie Kelly twitter post we saw yesterday on another thread that charged republican lawmakers and others for funding and tolerating this BS, which has culminated in President Trump being convicted in a kangaroo court by a corrupt judge and prosecutor.

Democrats have been pushing the boundaries of evil for a very long time and our elected officials have been funding and tolerating it for a very long time.

Republican philosophy has been for compromising with the democrats on everything, well actually giving them everything they want, so that... God forbid... we don't lose the next election.Democrats never compromise with republicans, they push and push.

Well, here we are..years later..with stolen elections, kangaroo courts, highly corrupt federal law enforcement e.t.c.

What’s to stop them from farming Trump’s appeal hearing to a similarly corrupt judge as Merchan?

Nothing, IMO.
