Does it? Andrew was arrested for leaking privileged information to Epstein, not for his sex charges. Trump claims presidential immunity for all the leaks and grift.

Not a whole lot of people getting arrested for abusing children. Lesley Groff is still at large.

At least he got arrested. Christ, take the win.

They took down Capone for tax evasion, you charge what you can prove IN COURT.

And Al Capone went to jail for tax evasion. A year in prison for tax evasion feels the same as a year in prison for murder.

Making a case for pedophilia is difficult, but not the classified info case. He can sit in prison on the info case, while they build the case for pedophilia.

I hope they’re building the case but after decades of accusations that go nowhere…

Trump has also been “arrested” before. If he gets any real jail time THAT would make this interesting. But I doubt that will happen.

Can we all hope that he spends no time at all in jail because It happened instead.

He is in such great shape, never been in better shape his whole life. That shape is a giant rotting human shit pile.

I don't think Trump needs any help making his Justice Department look pathetic

Trump more powerful than a king. Bro can't stop winning because everyone else around him is a spineless loser.
