The Florida congressman, however, told NBC News that his only political goal at the moment is getting Donald Trump elected president in 2024.

You say that's what happened? Then that does indeed sound like solid evidence! Yet professional lawyers/prosecutors couldn't find what you've found? Or at least not enough to bring him to trial?

Flip it over, pretend you believe the election was stolen from Trump. Yet in 60-some cases, only one was advanced, all for lack of evidence? Yet you have more evidence than a former President of the US can summon? See how silly that sounds?

Maybe a weak analogy?

Either you believe the reporting on the public venmos or you don't. But don't pretend like this is similar to Trumps fairly transparent lies about election fraud where he can't even name the fraud.

Look, our media is broken and Trump is exploiting the need for coverage to spread his lies. It's ignorant to think Republican voters aren't in on it as well.

And if you believe the rich in this country get treated just as harshly as the poor, I doubt I can convince you otherwise.
