I just can’t even with this.

About 24 percent of polled Republicans say the charges in the classified documents investigation make them more likely to support Trump, while 21 percent said the same with regard to the 34-count indictment related to falsified business records in a Manhattan court case.

    So, 25% of 19% of the US population.
    Or, just over 15M people out of 332M are saying this.
    Or, to put it another way: 317M people are not saying this.
    Or to put it another way: VOTE IN EVERY ELECTION, EVERY TIME IF YOU WANT THE WORLD TO GET BETTER

    Edit: because it was pointed out I wrote B instead of M. - Thanks!

      I think it’s that combined with a complete aversion to accountability. The last thing horrible people want is to be held accountable for their behaviour.

    If they don’t prosecute him, then he’s innocent.

    If they prosecute him, then it’s a corrupt DOJ.
