The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

That was quick. Happy you and Watching the Herd are around, but where is Albaby?

I'm around - just a little busy. And not much really to say about the Jack Smith indictments that didn't already get discussed pretty thoroughly on the boards.

As for the GA indictment, obviously this is the one that carries the greatest risk for Trump - at least in terms of process. Since these are state crime charges, federal pardons aren't available. That means that Trump, of course, can't be pardoned. But it also means that none of the other indicted folks can be pardoned, either. Which increases the risk that one or more might be willing to plea out and become cooperating witnesses - a risk not present in the January 6th indictments, since those "co-conspirators" weren't separately indicted (probably in part for that reason).
