[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We shouldn't get too exited about this. The precedent is set now and this kind of thing could be used against progressive candidates like Bernie or those who defend Israel. You may not like the new "rules". [/quote]

This is not a precedent or a new rule. The precedent was the ridiculous assertion that this a$$hole was above the law and could commit any crimes he wanted. [/quote]

Nobody has ever been convicted of [insert underlying federal crime] in our 248 year history, let alone leading presidential candidate.

The closest precedent was 2008 John Edwards case re: love child. Dropped of course.

I'd call it a new rule. [/quote]

There are over 30 people who have been tried on this, just in 2024.

This is not an uncommon crime in NY State.

The problem we have is all of these newly minted legal experts in the right wing ecosystem who are spouting off lies and half truths to get a portion of the populace riled up.

Here is a sample of others who were prosecuted for as little as $3K worth of insurance benefits fraud. All of these were prosecuted as felony falsification of business records, the same charge that Trump made. These are for fraud ranging form $3K to $60K. So Trump's fraud of at least $175K of payments to Stormy Daniels that were documented as legal fees, is nearly 3 times the size of the maximum in the other prosecuted cases.
