Should Trump be charged with crimes?

My question is not about whether or not he is guilty of crimes, but whether it would be good for the country as a whole to charge him even if there is ample evidence. I certainly see where there is enough evidence of crimes, but considering 40% of the country is still swallowing his #$%#, I think having him "tried" in the court of public opinion may be the better outcome in the long run. I fear that charging him will only strengthen his support.

If he's guilty there should be legal penalties. Nobody is above the law.

@ElwoodBlues I seem to recall something about a falsified request for a firearm permit, possession of a firearm....

@sunsporter1649 Seem to recall?? Please explain to us exactly what crimes Hunter has committed.

BTW, didn't you notice? Under latest SCOTUS ruling everybody gets to carry guns. No permit needed.

But go ahead. Explain to us exactly what crimes Hunter has committed.

@ElwoodBlues ATF Form 4473 is the background check each would-be gun buyer fills out upon trying to buy a gun at retail. A Federal Firearms License (FFL) holder then calls the FBI and relays the information from the form, receiving the all-clear to sell the gun or a rejection, which means the gun cannot be sold to the would-be buyer.

The punishment for false answers on that form includes fines up to $250,000 and/or ten years of imprisonment.

The check was administered on the Firearms Transaction Record Biden filled out in order to purchase a .38 revolver on October 12, 2018.

Hunter Biden has battled drug addiction through much of his adult life, and was discharged from the Navy in 2014 after failing a drug test.

@sunsporter1649 So you have PROOF that Hunter's answer was false ON THE DAY he filled out the form? All the dude needs is a reasonable doubt and prosecution's case collapses. You have PROOF beyond that reasonable doubt??

No, you don't have proof beyond a reasonable doubt. You just have a burning desire to turn the conversation away from Trump's crimes.
