The American Judicial System is Pathetic!

[justina]

Now this is bs. If any of us were convicted of something and keep asking a judge to push it back we would be laughed out of court and sentenced so fast we wouldnt know what hit us

[seamonster]

That's dumb. Let's pause this because of the politics, to prove that it's not being affected by politics...

[niclewis]

Mistaking Nikki Haley for Nancy Pelosi was bad. Mistaking E Jean Carroll for his ex wife Marla Maples was Priceless.

Hey Jennings, we're not accusing Trump of being a felon and a criminal, we're accurately describing him as a felon and a criminal. You know, people who get convicted of felonies... it's not a matter of opinion.

2 teir justice system we will get to your punishment when your not so busy 😢😢

[leasashaver]

The law needs to change about someone running for president when they are convicted of a felony.

''I've known Jeffrey Epstein 15 years. Terrific guy.''

Donald tRUMP

I wanted to join Maga but they said I had too many teeth.

[niclewis]

It wasn't a press conference. It was a whine fest.

[davidheaslip]

I have no faith in our justice system anymore .

[indoornepenthes]

All these crybabies seething at the sentencing delay is gold 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[johnbrattan]

Jennings is so bad. He says "When the Democrats accuse you (Trump) of being a felon and a criminal and so on."
Jeez, isn't he all three.

[pgtw]

No DUDE -IF DJT isn’t sentenced like anyone else would, 81+ millions of VOTERS will be (as you crassly stated) ‘Pissed Off’ to the MAX!

[joerogain]

Name one time tRUMP had anything positive to say about America. Just once.

[FrankSelly]

Imagine saying for 10 years, “we’re gonna get him.” “Omg, we’re gonna get him.” “He’s actually going down.” And then finally, the one charge you’re able to get, he paid some pornstar money to be quiet. There’s a difference between someone being rightfully prosecuted and being downright out to get someone. You guys are out to get someone.

[terrellcuevo]

Police Dept endorses the Felon/insurrectionist. Let's NOT skip over THAT fact.

[vincetur-rojas]

It doesn't matter on what court convict Trump. The MAGA sycophants will disagree with the verdict

[davidgrant]

This was a smart move. He will have no reason not to send the big orange baby to jail.
