Are you referring to the time he was jailed over donating 10k to his friends campaign? In the history of thr united states, he is the only prosecution of campaign donation being over limit.
Like no arguing, just adult conversation, but when you hear that he's the only person to ever to be punished for it, why doesn't that give a you pause and wonder why the DNC would want to punish him in the form of a 2 teered justice system?

My response is to go ahead and prosecute more people over it. Don't let people get away with crime. The people who's prosecutions you're upset over all broke the law.

Well, why was only person who made an anti Obama film the one who got in trouble? And campaign finance? You want people to all goto jail for campaign finance issues of 10k dollar donations? 5k over? That's what you want?

Most people don't leave evidence but he did.
Nobody accidentally goes over the limit by that much.

You're telling me that no one ever donates 10k by check? That's the only thing he did. You're delusional in this aspect, it's such a clear cut case of target behavior your comments are making me sick.

You're really far down the rabbit hole. I told you everybody who breaks the law should face consequences and you falsely take it as proof that I somehow am the tribalistic hypocrite and not you yourself.

My point is that there's have been MILLIONS of donations over the limit, of those IRS audits happened to some of those... not one single one got in trouble. The justice system was weponised intbis case and I don't know how any reasonable person can't see that.

If you think it's weaponized in every single instance where a criminal in the republican party gets caught then you need to reevaluate your life choices. Do you really think Republicans are overrepresented in prosecutions? They aren't.

I'm saying and only saying there's a million examples of this law being broke, and one example of someone being prosecuted for it. And the one guy that did it, made a movie that was counter Obama. Injustice of this nature should make all our blood boil.

Didn't I already tell you I'm all for prosecuting the rest too?
