I agree. I’ll be shocked if he’s convicted. I’m just happy he was indicted, booked, racked up huge legal fees, had to sit through the trial, couldn’t post his every thought on social media, tawdry details of his sex life were documented in court, he had to submit to someone with more authority, and he’s been under a lot of stress. I’m kind of sad the trial’s almost over. |
OMG, I had forgot about this episode. Thanks for raising it! Practically everything Trump says in public is the "Chewbacca defense" - it don't make no sense. |
Do you know how to count after 0? |
The longer the verdict takes the better for Trump and our Constitutional Republic |
Yes, because one man is above the law in your nihilist cult. |
The jury has come back with very specific questions.
* David Pecker's testimony regarding his phone conversation with Trump * Pecker's decision not to finalize and fund the assignment of McDougal's life rights * Pecker's testimony regarding the Trump Tower meeting * Michael Cohen's testimony regarding the Trump Tower meeting. Their seeking Pecker's testimony on not transferring the life rights is a good sign for the prosecution, as it evinces consciousness of guilt on Pecker's part. |
The fact that this charge is the most that Bragg could find on Trump proves just how squeaky clean he is. Bragg campaigned on a promise to get Trump, and used all the resources of the NY DA's office to find something, and this is the best he could find? Think about this - Trump has been operating for many decades in three industries (construction, media, and politics) where corruption runs rampant. Many in the construction business in NY are Mafia connected, for heavens' sake. But all Bragg could find is a bookkeeping charge, that the federal government already looked at and declined to prosecute, and which has never been prosecuted before, against anybody. They couldn't get him on real charges like insider trading, bribery, tax evasion, etc, etc, etc., and Lord knows they looked high and low. |
Hopefully trump is not the last. Bring all the NY crooks down. |
There’s one born every minute. |
Pecker also confirmed Trump's involvement with the conspiracy and delegating these matters to Cohen. |
I guess you forgot about Trump University and the Trump Foundation. And, there are federal and state cases against Trump and other conspirators underway. But sure, he is squeaky clean. ![]() |
Also, he's legally barred from operating a charity in NY because his charity was just a personal ATM. Yeah, real choir boy. |
The jury is sending notes to acting Justice Merchan that are giving observers the impression they're not going to be able to convict. Merchan is very pissed. So pissed, in fact, he sent the jury home for the day. |
The idea that the Trump campaign conspired with a media outlet to not only bury negative stories about him, but to plant stories about his opponent is insane to me.
Like holy hell that is so corrupt and illegal. It’s not about the hush money. |
