This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.
The RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

Welp, the feds have raided Mar-a-Lago. The Inflation Reduction Act has passed. Dark Brandon has awoken. Dark Garland is stirring.

Edit: House Ways & MEans Committee will be receiving Trump's tax returns immediately. Womp, Womp.

  I guess I do not understand political strategy.  Letting Trump fade away seems like SO MUCH smarter than hounding him endlessly and allowing him to be the stand in for "workin man murica" and letting people see just how un even the justice system is, and just how much the organs of the federal government are big government political weapons.  I guess it is akin to crucifying people to make an example, but the problem is with a janky economy the best you get is Florida man as POTUS, and the worst you get is real unrest and real activism from the right...and possibly real feelings of understanding you better do something or all is lost (whether that is the case or not, you can create a feeling like that in normies and boomer cons doing silly shit like this).  I guess being powerful comes because of who you blow and not what you know.

Not just letting him fade away presumes that the radical leftists running the Dems think like normal people. They don't. They do these things because they think that everyone would do what they themselves do...

This raid is pure political attention-whoring. It was to recover documents that were sent to Mar-a-Lago by the GSA and to which the FBI was already aware of and has had access to for *months*...

This will come back to bite them in the ass. First in the midterms when it is extraordinarily likely for there to be a Republican majority in both the house and Senate. Then, in 24 - if Trump runs again, it's a landslide. If he doesn't, it'll be a spiritual successor, at which point, everyone in the current admin had better get their affairs in order and have their lawyers' retainers paid up.

They need something to distract from Biden's terrible presidency. And Trump usually responds to being poked at. If Trump were politically savvy, he'd go dark and let them flounder. But he won't.

DoJ has been requesting these documents for a year. This is Trump's own damn fault.

The DoJ have been fishing for something, anything to pin on Trump for years now. Nothing has stuck because they can't find anything besides their hurt fee fees.

This is another nothingburger that will only further polarize the parties and reinforce to the American public that the Democrats are as terrible as the Republicans.

Trump sure has switched up his relationship with the 5th, hasn't he? Unless, of course, he's guilty...

You're ignoring the part where they knew what he had and asked that an additional lock be placed on the storage room - because the Trump folks had already been working with them to disposition documents that the Government Services Administration *sent* to Mar-a-Lago. Stop acting like he did a Sandy Berger and snuck off with them.

Yes, I do. Thank you for noticing.

So, did you have an opinion on Trump's flip-flop?
