Well I didn't say I'm on the fence about him. What I'm on the fence about is the motivation for charging him with trying to fix an election, and whether his corruption amounts to anything more serious than some of his predecessors.

Are you saying "maximum impact" as in political?
Yes.

As in, suggesting the justice system over there is biased against republicans?
No, biased against Trump. I mean, idk if there's party bias going on, to a degree there always is but I don't think they would be doing this to any republican candidate. This looks to me like the "elite", for lack of a better word, do not want him in office again. The "elite" is not a party politics concept, mega rich powerful wankers are not exclusively aligned to one party. He's got enemies within his own camp, that's for sure. And he's got enemies who don't give a toss about reps/dems politics and only care about business. So no, I don't think this is one party attempting to stifle another, rather it's a a system attempting to stifle one man (maybe).

Or maybe you guys are right and it just happens to be that this is precisely how long it takes to prepare these charges and it's a massive coincidence that it just happens to be as we approach election time in the States.
