i could actually see an argument that trump committed no crimes

Anyone worth their salt in debate/discussion knows full well that… “Credibility is essential to establish in a debate, otherwise the other side(s) will have no reason to consider your points.” Additionally… “If you have pertinent experience with the topic of debate, making that experience and the associated knowledge known will help establish you as an authority on that topic, which in turn will grant you credibility. ”

Not to anyone who understands rational epistemology engaging in debate. No number of links will change that.

In 2019, a special court found former Pakistani ruler General Pervez Musharraf guilty of high treason under article 6 of Pakistan’s constitution — for suspending the constitution when he imposed a state of emergency in November 2007 — and sentenced him to death. Article 6 holds that a person who “abrogates or subverts or suspends or holds in abeyance” the country’s constitution has committed high treason. I hope the USA is as smart as Pakistan.

they are all at 0 to 13 points, where Trump is at 57 points. He scores more than all the others together, let alone individually.
