TRUMP TRIAL: Judge Merchan fines Trump again, expressly states jail is next

40. And When He Trots Out That Line...

Only banana republic leaders prosecute (jail) their political opponents.

Then a good reporter would fact check him and say, “So, France, Italy, and South Korea, just to name three off the top of my head, are banana republics? Because according to you, since they have prosecuted and jailed former leaders, that would mean these allies and industrialized countries, are banana republics.
Further, I would also say that there have been plenty of people throughout history who have been treated way worse than you claim to have been. Victims of real witch hunts such as the Salem Witch Trials, and the Spanish Inquisition; the Jews and other Holocaust victims; African Americans and their ancestors who were brought here as slaves; Native Americans; the Palestinians, and many other minorities now and throughout history.”

Of course, that would take a reporter with an actual spine and convictions. Not many of those around these days.
