“Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime” | Lavrentiy Beria

To assert flatly that Trump never committed a serious crime is to assert confidence in his never having violated the law in any of the ways shown in bold above. It’s to assert that he didn’t do any of the crimes that multiple investigators at the federal and local level reportedly believe he might have committed. Many Republicans, though, just wave it all away. More...

Yeah, right and I could have committed a murder, maybe, and how do you know I didn’t. 

Get that: “reportedly”, “believe” “might have committed”. Huh! That much qualification I ain’t never seen never no way! And this, form WaPo, we’re supposed to take as reason to believe that indeed the man is the worst criminal. Just haven’t found the crime yet. 

“Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime”, Lavrentiy Beria said to Joseph Stalin. You can always find a crime if you want to put someone away. Rummage in  the statutes. It’s no wonder that Trump supporters don’t believe the charges, because Trump enemies have been going at this for seven years, including a full-on investigation via the Mueller Report (which came up zip), and investigations into private dealings, that came up with... misusing a company car.... Goodness me!

Alan Dershowitz is a liberal Democrat lawyer, always voted Democrat, is not a Trump supporter. Yet he writes “Get Trump” as an indictment of how Trump haters have become the neo MacCarthy-ites, this time from the Left. Out to get Trump, no matter the damage to the Constitution. Dershowitz says their crimes against the Constitution are graver than any of the crimes alleged against Trump.
