The last time he was indicted? This is the 3rd time.
Correct. "The last time he was indicted" hasn't come to a resolution yet, nor will it until at least next year. Saying nothing came of it is a dumbass take, to put it gently.
How long has it been? Honestly, if anything were to happen, it would've happened already.
Wrong, please learn how long court timelines are before continuing discussing these matters you clearly aren't familiar with
So you don’t follow the news at all?
You're just objectively wrong...
Courts are absurdly slow, and it's probably creeping into human rights violation levels for low priority cases. People have admitted to pleading guilty to just move on as they served a majority of their potential time in prison waiting for the trial
Huh? Have you never seen anything about how the court system works?
do you know how the courts work here? Indictment is pne of the very first steps.then comes all the pretrial stuff, where we are at now with trumps charges. And then comes the actual trial.
People have been trained by TV to think justice is swift.
