That's a fact.

Trump is a perfect example. Everyone posting here would have been shot had they caused a judge and their clerk to receive 100s of literal threats. Trump? Nothing. Like literally zero consequences. None. Zero. Zip. Nada. Nuthin.

I don't think Trump has anything to do with this... besides, that's kind of a bold statement regardless of your political persuasion, and not appropriate for HN.

Name one other defendant that caused a judge to receive 100s of threats and suffered no consequence. None!

That's the law literally only applying to the little people. My feelings on Trump are moot.

Fines as well. They’re basically “illegal for the non rich”.

“Nov. 29, 3:58 pm, 3:59 pm, 4:00pm, 4:01pm, 4:02pm: Targeted the wife of New York Judge Arthur Engoron — who is presiding over his civil fraud trail — in five separate posts for allegedly criticizing the Trump family and other Republicans on social media. Engoron's wife has denied making the posts, saying she doesn't have an X account.”

While everyone on this forum would be thrown under a jail, this is somehow not an example of how laws only apply to the little people.

To anyone getting into politics, this ain't that. The statement would be true whether he was a politician or not.
