Holy shit

… but they sent his spokesman to jail(?)

🙄🙄🙄

Where did Jim Jordan study Accounting?

Oh, a book-keeping error caused him to hire a porn-star as a prostitute, and pay her off to keep quiet about it. “Oops!” 😂

Trump broke many laws and it will be proven beyond ANY doubt. Sexual criminal Gym Jordan, like wise.

That's one way to look at it. Another is that the law is finally catching up to Donald Trump and should've by now. And if memory serves, a 'bookkeeping error' was basically what eventually nabbed Al Capone, even though it should've been all the other illegal stuff he did.

It's just a misdemeanor at best

Instead of talking about the accounting error, I would have thought that a GOP congressman in favor of family values might have something to say about cheating on your wife with porn stars as well as the issue of election law infringement.

You don't decide. A jury in Manhattan decides.

😂

He has a lot of those. Maybe he needs to get his accountant out of jail to 'fix' that.

Jim really should go back to wrestling

Who the fuvk cares what Trump bots think?

What?! What

This is just criminal obstruction

I’m going to believe the grand jury.

Imagine having the entire house of Republicans, and all their lawyers, money, and media experts working on CYA. A luxury mist defendants don’t have.

Says the person who sees Jan 6 insurrection as just tourists calmly enjoying the capitol

Sure Gym, why don’t you just stick to things you actually know about, which is nothing.

So I wonder what law he thinks Hunter broke?

Remember this?

Jim_Jordan (House Judiciary chairman!), can determine guilt or innocence without seeing the evidence or hearing from witnesses.

Bookkeeping error on his hookers lol

Was he in the room with Donny Boy and Stormy? He's use to watching and never saying a word just ask them boys that got molested on his watch.

Sure ....Gym....Kiss the Ring

I expect better. This is totally needless information. Tighten up kids.

Lmao. 🤡

Yea...do u find him gross?

'This is how we get Trump out of this current legal jam--now keep repeating the lines.'

That's the problem. Republicans don't think at all.

Cohen did but Trump didn't? lol sure Jimmy

Um…sorry Gym, something doesn’t add up with that excuse.

I wonder what he will say as per the pending cases in Georgia and D.C. against Trump?

Lol no crap they don't think he broke the law.

That is why two guys went to prison? A bookkeeping mistake🤣🤣🤣

He's known for looking away when a crime is being committed. I'm not surprised.

He could have shortened that statement and made a bigger point. 'We don't think.'

How would he know any of that?

He is pretty much saying, hey, we all do it. Why single Trump out. I'm sure Jordan would be happy to show all his finances to his constituents.

Well, except for the checks he wrote.

I could care less what Gym Jordan says, thinks, opines or shits.

Can’t wait for that Clooney documentary on him Jordan is a absolute clown has never authored a pass bill in all his time in office he’s literally done the same amount of work as George Santos!

I have to wonder just how GD awful are the people in his district to keep electing this turd

So that's the angle?

The dog ate his paper too.

Ohhhh, oh well that sorts it all out then.

If Jim has some knowledge about what happened he can tell it under oath!

Jordan doesn't think, he excretes.

Can someone get comment on whether Mrs. Jordan agrees with this stance on payments to porn stars?

Could of just stopped at 'We don't think', Jim. We are already aware of that.. you let Trump do all the thinking for you.

Crafty bunch those bookkeepers. ✌️🇬🇧

orcatra TDS

Gym didn't think Coach broke any laws back at OSU too.

Iraqi National Museum found 600+ missing artifacts stashed away in a storeroom of the prime minister’s office, two years after they were returned to Iraq. Officials said the artifacts were simply delivered to the wrong office. 'It is a misunderstanding.'

Clown clowning.

How many people make bookeeping errors while trying to pay off a pornstar and while also trying to defraud voters?

Entitled to his opinion

He didn't think coach raping players also wasn't breaking the law

No one cares what Jim_Jordan thinks. Instead of wasting his time on Trump’s legal problems, maybe he ought to focus on national priorities that he was sent to Congress to address.

Yep in exactly the same way Al Capone made a bookkeeping error.

I see Gym - I see a clown

It’s not an “error” if it was deliberate.

I wonder what Jordan thinks is the *proper* way to record a hush money payment?

“Nobody gives a shit what Gym thinks.” - me

Someone please explain to the chair of the House Judiciary Committee how the Justice system works in this country.

Ahh yes, the people who know nothing of the investigation, charges, and evidence are making presumptions about what is at the heart of the matter. Very common for what is termed a “boot licker”

Please let this be their defense

The good news is that it does not matter at all what Jim Jordan thinks about this

I guess we don't need a justice system if Gym Jordan (and whoever else 'we' is) can just decide everything for us.

It's really incredible to be a white man

Rep. Eric Swalwell calls Republican reactions to potential Trump arrest 'irresponsible'Former president Donald Trump announced that he will be arrested on Tuesday in connection to the New York investigation into alleged hush-money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels. News of his potential arrest sparked outrage among lawmakers in Washington. House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy even went as far as threatening to launch an investigation. Rep. Eric Swalwell sits on the Judiciary and Homeland Security Committees. He joined American Voices with Alicia Menendez to discuss. Don’t condemn “Trump’s rhetoric”. Condemn eight years of affirmation of a depraved culture which is conditioned to respond to perceived grievances with gratuitous mob violence without fear of consequences. Swalwell is counting on violence and he knows that Antifa/BLM, probably the FBI, and any other intelligence agency that want to cause violence will be in the crowds doing just what Swalwell wants.

GOP Rep. Says Trump Indictment Will ‘Blow Over’ Because He’ll Just No-ShowAppearing on pro-Trump channel Newsmax, MAGA-boosting congresswoman Rep. Claudia Tenney argued that the “case is garbage” and “isn’t going anywhere” before predicting that Trump simply wouldn’t cooperate if an indictment comes down. We've never seen an entire political party defy the rule of law as much in our history as the party of law & order. If they will burn it all down to protect a person like Trump, what do you think they will do to law-abiding citizens who don't agree with them? The law and order/don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time party has certainly done a selective about face.
