Good Night, SIGforum. Let not your hearts be troubled
I wasn't surprised but a gut punch still stings even when you're expecting it. The Japanese thought they won Pearl Harbor too.

No doubt this will help us politically, but it's a bad day for the country and really no going back. We'll have to do this exact thing to them... Republican prosecutors in red states will have to become politically motivated. Sharing the country with leftist will become increasingly problematic.

The enemy has made another tactical error out of desperation. The noose is tightening around their traitorous necks and they can feel it as if it were physically there. Their time is growing ever short.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this. Read this quote and verified it as true prior to putting this here.
Ayn Rand Quotes The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.

I needed that as well, was sick to my stomach yesterday. Decided to step away from the news for a bit.

I wince when evil has a victory too. But in the chess match between righteousness and evil there will be pieces lost. I’m just here to say I know righteousness will prevail. I think this was a Pyrrhic victory for the Left. They’ve bruised our heel, but we can still win the war.
I want to thank President Trump for sacrificing his time, talents and treasure for the principles of freedom we all enjoy to one degree or another. He didn’t have to do any of this. Now he is vulnerable. If he can do that for the cause of liberty, I can take fresh courage and resolve to support him publicly and in private. I donated money already. I’ll donate my time and talents going forward. God bless America. God bless every patriot. God bless each of you.

I was deeply troubled when I saw the breaking news yesterday.
I'm sorry to ask this question. I am not that familiar with our election laws and the requirements to run for President.
All I want to know is Can he still run for President in the upcoming election?
I have been a long time supporter of Trump. I pray and hope that we can have him back in the office. We need him back in the office.

Yes.
And the GDCs know this.
All Americans will soon realize that the GDCs "Doing whatever it takes" to keep him from the White House, applies to them as well in "Doing whatever to takes" to any and every one of us for "whatever they desire".

This case was the biggest farce in the history of law. It should have never been brought in the first place and will 10000000000% be overturned on appeal for a variety of reasons. The fact that Trump was found guilty speaks VOLUMES about the corruption in our legal system and the bias in Democrat strongholds like NYC.
That said this is the best thing that could have happened to Trump. Fundraising is through the roof and early polls among independent voters IN NEW YORK shows a major swing to Trump after this verdict. Trump is going to show the world why he's Trump. Trump is WAY ahead in political advertising because he used this trial as a way to campaign without spending a nickel. These ridiculous allegations and kangaroo courts have done nothing but give Trump a sympathetic ear to the very problem that's rotting our country from in the inside out: the legal system in which Americans are distrusting more now than ever. "If it can happen to Trump what could the legal system do to me (with a fraction of Trump's resources)?" is the question every impartial, reasonable person is asking themselves and they know a vote for Trump is a step in the right direction to hold these ASSHOLES accountable. God bless President Trump.

Yes, the new day brings a new perspective.
It's understandable that Trump supporters were shocked, even though we knew this verdict was likely. Recall how we felt when all these indictments starting coming down a few months ago, but how we all picked ourselves up to carry on.
I've no doubt that many of you are still bummed about this most recent turn of events, but, in time, you'll be fine, and I think you will come to see that they have not defeated us.

I am encouraged to see how many folks and how much money was donated to Trumps coffers to aid in his election campaign.
"Someday I hope to be half the man my bird-dog thinks I am." looking forward to 4 years of TRUMP!

I think so and pray so as well. I will admit that I did not sleep well last night.

Sleep was very difficult for me too.
But I do have a better perspective today and as many of you have said, the dems actually made a big mistake. This persecution will bite them!

I'm more encouraged than anything! This is a blatant kangaroo court in one of the most liberal cities in the world. On top of that, the judge was openly unfair against Trump, confusing to the jurors, and I have a feeling it was an orchestrated result. This will only strengthen our numbers and resolve.
The real question, is will the Dims give up power when Biden gets crushed and they weren't able to fake enough ballots to get even close. Especially, if Trump takes the popular vote.

I personally know two hardcore libertarians that will be voting Trump this time. Between the dem plant that was nominated for the L party and the shenanigans going on in NY, they’re afraid NOT to vote Trump this time. There’s bound to be many thousands more like them.
