Luv how you conflate an NDA with hush money, TOO FUNNY. Even still It’s a misdemeanor charge that outran the statute of limitations. The only reason this is going to trial is because the NY justice system is corrupt and Bragg is an idiot. This case will fail on appeal starting with a tainted jury, a judge refusing to recuse himself and a DA that is attempting to bootstrap a federal statute to a misdemeanor.

If Biden was charged in the same court = innocent

If Trump is being tried in same court = possible guilty due to political motivation over justice.
Yes, hush money and an NDA aren’t the issue.
 
The real worry is that there will be one juror in each of these cases who is a Trumper and just says no. I think that's a real possibility. And then other Trumpers will just pretend he's not the scum of the earth and that he didn't do what he most obviously did do.
I think the prosecution is smart enough to wait out any true MAGA zombies. But there is always that risk, and that's just the way our just a system works.
They're already ignoring that he's already lost on two fronts--one case unwrapping his business crimes and another declaring him a rapist.
No one's ever going to change the true Trump zombies. But a couple dozen convictions will seal the deal for all of the independents still on the fence, and all the Republicans who have already said they absolutely will not vote for Trump if he's a convicted felon (I thought I saw that, in recent polling, it was something like 30% of Republicans. That's more than enough.).
 
A Fox "legal analyst"
Gregg Jarrett has kind of been all over the place over the years. Sometimes he's impartial, rational, and intelligent, others he's just as bad as any of the other MAGA zombies. I've never known what his qualifications were as a "legal analyst", though.

I used to watch Fox News quite a bit, at least before it got to O'Reilly or Tucker or Ingraham or whoever else they had on in the evenings. In a Sun Tzu kind of way.

Parroting Donald Trump's political rants does not make you appear impartial on the matter. Your assumption that Joe Biden would be acquitted if he were on trial, while Donald Trump would be found guilty if he were tried on Monday, is conjecture. It is your take on political motives rather than charges filed by the DA. Venting w/o foundation, similar to DJT, everything is seen from the perspective of 'witch-hunting.'

Joe Biden isn't being charged in NY with fraud for tax violations, so it's asinine to bring his name into this as though it were a corollary fictional case file. Which, by the way, is not under the 'crooked Federal DOJ's jurisdiction.' This is a criminal case in the state of NY, not a federal one.

The reason this is going to trial is because Trump is alleged to have covered up the hush money [your DNA as well] to Story Daniels as a Federal/State Income Tax business deduction. Making alleged false claims on your income taxes is a criminal act and fraud and is punishable under state and federal statutes. It is serious business. While paying hush money per se is not illegal, the issue is that Trump tried to write the 'silence attempt' off as a business deduction. He is an asshole - a clear and simple tactic, not to mention he cheated on his wife in an attempt to cover it up. Trump could have paid the money out of his personal account or even his business account and claimed it as miscellaneous non-deductible payments to his attorney - easy and would have avoided this case coming to trial altogether.

The case has merit. It is legal to charge him, or Trump would have put that into his appeal and may well claim so in this case before a jury of his peers. Next, I would expect, based on your claim, that the jury selection process is also tainted and biased against Trump. That, too, is crazy thinking. It only takes one person on the panel to vote not guilty, one out of nine or one out of twelve jurors. He has better odds of not being guilty with respect to jurors.

NBC notes, "Trump is accused of violating New York State law by allegedly agreeing to obscure a series of reimbursements to his former lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen, who is the key witness against Trump in the case. Cohen made a $130,000 alleged "hush money" payment to adult film star Stephanie Clifford, known as Stormy Daniels, days before the 2016 election in exchange for her silence about an alleged affair with Trump. Trump denies the allegations and says there was no affair."

Trump is not facing charges for an affair, to be clear again. Stormy only blows into this weathery scene because of his write-off of the 130k as a tax deduction. The immoral Ex-President is probably paying the price for that, given his frosty reception from Melania at home.

There is a clear trail of evidence to follow here: Stormy's testimony, Cohen's testimony, copies of Trump's accounting trail, his tax filings, and other witnesses that are expected to corroborate the evidence. It's not manufactured shit he can easily have dismissed.

It's time to face the consequences. Like it or not, this may be Trump's first Waterloo moment. No one is carrying his water this time like Cohen did in his trial, and Trump escaped in that one.
 
A great breakdown and analysis of how the proceedings will go, from voir dire and jury selection all the way to potential complications with verdicts, as well as sentencing options. I'm not crazy about Brian Tyler Cohen, but his segments with Glenn Kirchner are top-notch.
 
It’s this continual 2 tiered justice system that’s upsetting to us law abiding patriots. Michael Cohen served 13 months in prison and was on house arrest afterwards for crimes he did at the behest of his well off boss who will face no repercussions? This may be acceptable to democrats but not for us ‘respectful of the law’ republicans.

SDNY refused to take up the case. The charge outran the statute of limitations. To make this case Bragg had to bootstrap a federal charge to a misdemeanor charge that outran the statute of limitations. In other words Bragg basically IDENTIFIED the man and found a crime. I find it ironic this supposed crime has a history of several years but yet Bragg decided to now charge during an election cycle. Bragg based his political career on getting Trump much like Letitia James. More weaponization of the justice system. NY criminal justice system is developing a bad reputation pushing legal theory to its breaking point. Then there’s a compromised judge who should recuse himself. The jury pool is 95 % Trump hating democrats. Refusing a change of venue due to biased media coverage and a prejudicial jury pool can hardly be considered a fair trial, we’ll see. Even democrat legal beagles agree this case is pushing the limits of legal precedent. Even if charged and convicted prior convictions result in a fine. This case is so convoluted it makes a mockery of NY’s justice system.

So it’s okay if there is conviction since it is just a fine? Your guy can keep breaking laws as long as it’s not serious…great campaign slogan.

But yes, he as the “best people”…

What else ya got?

Ask yourself this question, if Trump doesn’t run does this case or trial ever make it to court. The correct answer is no! This trial is politically motivated and timed to take place during the heat of the election cycle. This is once again weaponizing the judicial system to interfere with an election. Bragg should be disbarred. The judge should be thrown off the case for political biases.

Alina? Is that you?
 
Happy Trump Criminal Trial Day, everyone! I think Biden should make this a national holiday from now on! Oh, wait, there's that taxes thing, too...

If he were not running for President, at least two of his cases would already be concluded with convictions, including this one.
So, they put the case on the backburner so they could use it during an election cycle. That equates to election interference. Charging a crime for a political advantage and you're OK with that? That's why democrats are a vile crowd. Who's the victim in this case. The campaign finance charge is a misdemeanor that outran the two year statute of limitation. NDAs are commonly used and are rarely prosecuted. If anything should go forward it should be Trump suing Stormy for breach of contract and extortion. If NDAs were prosecuted half the political class would be up on charges.

The problem is that Bragg has long been searching for a crime in the criminal code to fulfill his pitch during his campaign that he was the man for voters who wanted to bag Trump.

The falsification of business records in reference to the $130,000 payment to porn star Stormy Daniels might have been a possibility, but it lacked two things.

Fumbling his Trump case, Alvin Bragg exposes his incompetence nationwide​


First, it expired as a chargeable misdemeanor after two years — and that was roughly five years ago.

Second, it was a mere misdemeanor that could be brushed off by Trump even if they succeeded.

Prosecutors then created a Rube Goldberg approach and suggested that the misdemeanor was committed to conceal a federal election law violation — a crime that the Justice Department declined to charge.

That theory has been widely ridiculed, even by many on the left. The bootstrapping of a federal crime under this statute appears unprecedented and likely unsustainable.

The reason that the Justice Department likely declined the case was that it had previously tried to show that hush money paid to bury an affair was a federal campaign expense.

It failed in the case of Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards.

There are a host of reasons why a married celebrity like Trump might pay hush money separate from a presidential run.

Thirty. Four. Felony. Charges.
