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 point is he should be getting the same treatment as anyone else who was being charged as he was. Nobody would be seeing the outside of a courtroom or jail cell with the series of charges against him.
This has nothing to do with how unlikeable he is or his political affiliations. This has everything to do with evidence pointing to him committing a series of crimes. Why should he get to run around free when others in his position would not?
His attempts to threaten witnesses, lawyers and even the judges involved in his cases alone would get any regular person behind bars, to say nothing of his refusal to stop and other bad faith arguments to fight gag orders
If he wasn’t wealthy and white he’d be behind bars right now awaiting trial.
He’s wealthy and orange though.

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

Maybe maybe not. Nobody’s been in this position before. But I’m sure he would agree with you lot, ignore the process, and jail his opponents.

You think it’s corrupt justice departments pressing charges in multiple states and federally?

No, that would be the constitution. He can run from prison if he wants.
