You clearly meant to say "Biden" regarding all the corruption, conflicts of interest, etc.

It's okay sport, I got ya covered.

Perhaps the worst legacy of the Trump administration is the normalization of everything that the US president should NEVER be. So the amnesiac 'Murican will now apply that criminal standard to other presidents without any evidence.

if trump did anything illegal he would have been impeached and removed from office

(He was impeached twice, though the GOP kept him in office as their clown puppet.)

must have just been dems playing politics, it went by partyline vote

Even now merrick garland says by his inaction that trump did nothing illegal.

Good point about Garland, though the guy's a moderate, and my view is that the true meanning of his argument is that: Trump didn't do anything more illegal than what other politicians have done. But that there is the problem.

over in NY the AD seeks to question trump's children. That is the closest any law enforcement type person has done to possibly charging trump with a crime but it is still the fact at this monent, if trump did anything illegal please point to it and explain why top law enforcement officials disagree.

They're reporting facts.

This is comical. Take this example from the Washington Post:

Trump also uses his properties to generate revenue from parties doing business with the government, which could justify a bribery investigation. Recent reporting indicates that lobbyists and foreign government officials pay to get into the Trump International Hotel in Washington and the Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida to obtain access to Trump. If the president rewarded those spending money at his hotels and resorts with favorable official decisions in office, he could be criminally liable.

In short, people pay to stay at his properties. This might be criminal if evidence ever emerges that he did political favours for any paid guest. No actual evidence, insinuation as opposed to accusation. It's a thought exercise you're presenting as evidence of criminality..

By the same logic one could suggest Trump is an aeroplane hijacker. He's been onboard aeroplanes on many occasions. He used to bring armed men aboard flights with him. He could be charged if it's found that he hijacked any one of these flights.

Though that is obviously a strawman argument, one it is one of many conflicts of interest that show what a small corrupt person Cheeto in Chief was, especially as President, and the smaller the grift, the better example in this contect of greed. Conflicts of interests in the role of President are forms of treason to the American people. The Trump crime family engaged in very serious and not to serious acts of treason. They should all be in jail.
