  1. "More likely than not" is all that is required since it is not a criminal case. That is how the law works in this country. Therefore the Jan 6 committee can get the emails from his lawyer who was planning a coup by VP Pence. Luckily for Trump, the standard of proof will be higher if he ever gets charged.

  2. Well Biden is not a one man crime wave

  3.  @fadedtiger3181  Okay let me ask you. Do you think, more likely than not, that it was legal for VP Pence to reject the election and send the votes back to the states based on some conspiracy theories of voter fraud? Would you be okay if VP Harris did the same thing in 2024 if Biden lost?

  4.  @otissmith7057  You're right. He was a one man crime wave then, and he is still a one man crime wave now. But it doesn't matter. Because something something Hunter Biden.

  5. "More likely than not" is preponderance of the evidence you're talking about. Just in layman's terms.

  6. @YouTube Account Honestly, what's wrong with being a globalist? This is the internet age. Kind of hard to act like the rest of the world doesn't exist.

  7. There is nothing to prove. Trump's lawyer was saying that his emails were protected by attorney-client privilege. But emails involving committing a crime are not protected. All the Jan 6 committee had to show was that "more likely than not" those emails were used in committing a crime. The standards of proof are different in lawsuits vs criminal trials.

  8. It's not a criminal case. It's a civil case about obtaining Trump's lawyer's emails. The judge is saying that "more likely than not," concocting a plan to have VP Pence overturn the election is illegal. Therefore, Trump's lawyer's emails discussing the plan are not protected by attorney-client privilege. So the investigators in Congress can get the emails.

  9.  @davidmichael2209  It's not a criminal case. It's a lawsuit over obtaining some emails. The rules of proof are lower.

  10.  @howdabowdix  No you do not have to just "allege" the lawyer committed a crime. You have to convince the judge that he "more likely than not committed a crime." And it's true: concocting a plan to have VP Pence reject the election results was "more likely than not a crime." In his emails that were already released, he explicitly said it was okay for Pence's people to commit one "minor violation". Which means he KNEW the plan was illegal.

  11.  @howdabowdix  It doesn't matter what the specifics of the violation were. He admitted he knew it was a violation of the law, so therefore his related emails lose their protection. Period. The emails the Jan 6 committee used to justify the allegation were NOT privileged. They already obtained thousands of unprotected emails by subpoena from Trump's lawyer and cited them in their court filing. They also have witness testimony from Mike Pence's chief-of-staff. They went to court to get the rest of the emails that actually were privileged. It should not be surprising that the committee was successful. Republicans had a win at ALL costs attitude about the 2020 election. Countless people have detroyed their lives trying to keep cult-leader Trump in office.

  12.  @howdabowdix  Sounds like you should take your complaints to court and PROVE IT. Until proven in court, it is only a nutty conspiracy theory. Still waiting for your "but the judges are all against us" argument. Stop breaking the law and you won't have legal issues.

  13.  @howdabowdix  Donald Trump is a one man crime wave.

  14.  @howdabowdix  Well let's see. Trump Organization - ordered by courts do stop racial discrimination in renting. Trump Organization - recently indicted for tax fraud. Trump University - shut down for fraud. Trump's charity - shut down for fraud. Other cases are ongoing. But like I said, one man crime wave.

  15.  @howdabowdix  A walking, talking one-man crime wave.

  16.  @howdabowdix  Now we've got him stealing classified documents from the White House after being booted out of office. And just today, an 8-hour gap in White House phone logs from Jan 6. Dude is like Nixon on steroids. Only difference is that back in Nixon's time, his party actually held him accountable. Today's Republican Party has no interest in doing the right thing. They see it as weakness. They see law breaking as strength.

  17.  @howdabowdix  How about those 8 hours of call logs missing? Wasn't Nixon forced to resign after a similar cover-up? Wasn't Trump impeached the first time after a similar cover-up. If Hillary and Hunter committed crimes, why didn't Trump prosecute them while he was in office? He had 4 years. You gonna say he wanted to be nice to them? You gonna blame the FBI? Your accusations don't hold up to scrutiny. You just think the whole world is against ONLY Republicans. Like I said, Republicans root for crime. Republican politicians are like rappers. The more crime they commit, the more clout they get within the party. The party of being tough on crime is now the party of crime. So many arrests. So many pardons. So much corruption. So much crime. Based on the past few years, if you're a Trump supporter, your odds committing a crime just skyrocketed.

  21. What are you talking about? This investigation has been going on for almost a year. Just because you want us to forget about Jan 6 doesn't mean it's going to happen. The Republican Party tried to turn us into a banana republic and now want to act like it never happened.

  22. Well seeing as Trump is not being charged for a crime, there is no requirement to prove he guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. This is only a lawsuit over the Jan 6 committee obtaining emails from his lawyer who was planning a coup. The judge is saying that communications involving what was "more likely than not" a crime are not protected by attorney-client privilege. No consequences for Trump aside from the committee getting his lawyer's emails.

  23. Because he is a one man crime wave.

  24. Here we go again, Republicans being the party that praises breaking the law, as long as it's in service to Donald Trump.
