An opinion: Merrick Garland and Letitia James will get Trump.

They will convict him. Yes, it will take time, and the everything needs to be
as perfect as can be, but that is why it has taken so long for the indictments, and that is also
my opinion.

.....So, you do not think that Trump broke the law?..Is he the kind of person that thinks he can get away with
anything? Prosecutors often like to get characters like that. Those are the people that think they are ....above the
law.
.... Is Trump one of those?

Bottom Line: "It will take time but they will get him."

We all know that. And the evidence is now coming out for all to observe. It ain't pretty, but it is the truth.

way around it. You think that is what taking all this time is all about? I think so. Time is not on
Trump's side. Prosecutors need the time to get ..."water tight cases."

Let me ask again, "Did Donald Trump break the law?"...

Did Trump incite the insurrection? Is that against the law?
