Capitol Hill Blue Forums Life and Moral Issues Morality & Society Trump warns of 'problems' like 'we've never seen' if he's indicted

Trump is neither good nor young. And he hasn't really got a billion lying around either.

Immortality...? He's a walking time bomb. But yeah, he could live to be 90...

The only one that's going to have problems with a Trump indictment is Trump himself.

I think we'll see an insanity plea.

my brother and I argued long and hard about this. I claimed since Trump suffered from narcissism (he is delusional) he should be considered incompetent as he could not provide assistance for his own defense, and therefore should not be charged. My brother, an attorney, pointed out the law does not provide for such distinctions. Does Trump understand the difference between right and wrong? if so, and despite any delusions, he is competent to stand trial.

I don't know if this suit will make it to trial .... they may settle.

Perhaps we need a few examples of Trump doing the "right" thing.

Like rescuing a puppy, or giving a helping hand to his fellow man...If one understands the difference between right and wrong it stands to reason that one would occasionally make the right decision.

Even a blind hog finds an acorn now and then, right???

So, Mr. Porter, the onus is on you! Show me an instance where he willfully chose to do the right thing. Just to prove that he knows the difference between right and wrong.

He's fecking insane.

The longest chapter in either of Trump's famous books (Art of the Deal or Think Big) appears in the latter. Here it is.



Anyone who writes a book that centers on "the art of REVENGE" demonstrates very clearly they do know right from wrong.

I suspect any "right thing" Trump has done, was just coincidently right. And had significant advantages for him. He's all about winners and losers: If he's going to be the winner, there has to be a loser.

In her news brief of suing The Trump Organization for fraud, NY AG Letitia James coined the phrase, Art of the Steal - a take off on "Art of the Deal" a book ghost written for Trump, so that he could put his name on it.

Is revenge usually the "right" thing to do?

Things in our government and the hardcore partisans who take it to extremes have made it impossible to find the right thing to do. Relevance becomes truth and the win becomes good or bad, depending on one's view of the outcome. Situational results replace honesty or truth. I was part of the damn world for too long and it continues to haunt me. I have no answers, just a lot of guilt.

Revenge in and of itself is not a good thing. I've seen Karma in action, and Karma does a way better job than any one person could ever do exacting revenge.

Besides, Karma comes after the revenger as well.

Just sit back, and let Karma do its work - it will be a doozy!

I had to chuckle to that.

One may know the difference between right and wrong and still choose to do the wrong thing every time. Doing so does not mean, or imply, or insinuate he doesn't know the difference, only that he has the free will to choose something other than the right thing.

I have often hoped he would take the stand and testify under oath to expose himself to his supporters what an idiot he is, but alas, they would only think he is one of them and intensify their support, loyalty, and fealty to him.

Being at the right time, the right place, the right person, saying the right things, etc, appears to be an almost eerie nexus of all the wrong, unethical, evil things all at once, which makes me consider ( ; >) he may be the anti-Christ ..... maybe it is as Rep Greene and Boebert say .... the END TIMES .... I don't know whether to pray to Trump or say some Hail Mary's
