tax returnsThe former presidents son, Donald Trump Jr, has criticised the state of New York and the Supreme Court for refusing a request from Donald Trump to stop prosecutors from seeking his personal and corporate tax returns.
In a post to the conservative video platform Rumble, the 43-year-old called the decision on Monday a witch hunt, and referred to prosecutors as the peoples republic of New York
The BS never ends, said Trump Jr in the four minute-long video. The political persecution of my father continues on, because a grossly partisan district attorney in New York finally got the Supreme Court to agree with their witch hunt.
This wouldn't fly if a conservative attorney did this to a liberal politician, continued Trump Jr. People would lose their minds but living in the peoples republic of New York they can get away with it, because there is no check balance. They know theyll probably get a favourable judge and a jury that hates Donald Trump.

I know you'd prefer the oligarchy of Trump Don jr. but that's not what this country was founded on.

(65,191 posts)They like to make sure we know we're a republic, not a democracy. So, we're a republic.
The first 3 words of the Constitution they claim should be taken literally, are "We The People".
The united states is a people's republic. By definition!
Not that this brain dead drone has ever read The Preamble.
