      Yes, rich people pay bail all the time. We shouldn’t we make a political prisoner because of that.

        Bail was literally devised as a means to keep wealthy people out of prison while putting undo burden on working class people charged with the same crime. 100,000 dollars isn’t realistic for most people to have available, but wealthy criminals can toss that out like cab fare

          Yes, there are issues with the bail system. Although, it’s not usually 200k.

          But that’s not the point. The point is that he’s going through the process, and we shouldn’t just jail political figures without due process. It’s crazy to me how many people can’t understand that.

                    The “Constitution” is no fucking excuse. All kinds of laws and rulings have nothing to do with the fucking Constitution. That is now only the kast refuge for assholes and losers. And if anything, the Constitution says he is guilty of High Treason. And this SCOTUS is no longer capable of interpreting the Constitution.
