The plea deal by Hunter Biden with federal prosecutors demonstrates that no one, not even the president’s son, can escape accountability. Now do the former president and his family.

@georgetakei So youd be ok if Trump got off on a plea deal too?
@freemo @georgetakei seems fair to me, if he was willing to plead guilty. But he didn't, at least not in the indictments so far.
@freemo @georgetakei no idea. It's hard to picture Trump admitting guilt even if the offer was there, but I guess it's possible.
Here's what I could find about his pubic stance on the matter:
> Trump predicted he would not be convicted and said he did not anticipate taking a plea deal, though he left open the possibility of doing so “where they pay me some damages.”

So I guess he would plead guilty if DOJ paid him money, which sounds like a ridiculous stipulation to me. Anyway I don't see any immediate evidence of unfairness.
Yea its certainly hard picturing Trump admitting fault.
I also have no reason to think Trump is treated unfairly in his trials. If anything i think Hunter Biden got off too easy.
@strawd @georgetakei
Wellnplea bargins are reached before the plea. So they offer a generous deal that is garunteed if they plea guilty.
Was he offered a deal with no jail time or significant consequences for a guilty plea? As far as i know they made no such offer.
