Monday, April 15th: First Ever Criminal Trial for a Former US President

Guilty on all thirty-four felony counts. Thank you for your service going out to those twelve peers of now felon Donald J. Trump, ex-president of these United States.

What a sad time for America.

See you back here on July 11th for the sentencing of a felon - four days before the National Republican nomination.
A travesty of justice.
 
As previously mentioned, it's evident that this verdict won't withstand the scrutiny of the appellate process. The inevitability of the guilty verdict became apparent upon the revelation of the jury instructions by the Judge, which were unjustly barred from discussion during closing arguments. It's apparent that the scales of justice were tampered with. From the outset, the overwhelming Democratic majority in New York City, coupled with the handpicked selection of the judge—instead of a random selection from a pool of 171—both for Trump's and Bannon's trials, raises serious concerns. The odds of impartiality seem improbable. Even the President himself harbored doubts about the fairness of the trial. Though I held onto a glimmer of hope that at least one juror would see through the manipulation, that hope waned in the final days of the proceeding

What's the next move? there will be an appeal, drawing from the points I've highlighted earlier. However, navigating the court system could take months. In the interim, Joe Biden will have achieved his long-desired goal: branding Donald Trump as a convicted felon. It's a tactic straight from the Democratic playbook, but it doesn't overshadow the grave injustice that has transpired. It falls upon the legal system in New York to set things right. While the Democrats and their fervent supporters may celebrate this as a victory, it's a stark reminder of the lengths they'll go for political advantage

There is a tale an untold saga, the very fabric of narratives that captivates the masses in theaters across America. It unfolds around a lone figure, his spirit unbroken despite relentless assaults from an unyielding adversary. He faces off against a malevolent force, a twisted embodiment of wrath and greed—a relentless pursuit for dominion veiled in darkness. At its core, it's the timeless clash between good and evil.

Lmao... Holy drama fucking queen.

You've been working on this one for a while.

Either that or you copy pasta'd again without citing (more likely)
 
We, the Literotica jury, would like to thank Judge Merchan for his service in conducting a high-profile and complex never-before-encountered felony trial against an ex-president. Truly, this will become a precedent for future cases and serve as a guideline if another high-ranking political personality faces court charges in New York City.

We extend our sincere appreciation to the jury for their diligent service and the difficult task they have undertaken. While we value the opinion of George Washington University Law Professor Jonathan Turley, it is important to note that the final decision rested with the twelve individuals who have determined Donald J. Trump's guilt on all thirty-four counts.

See you all on July 11th for sentencing. Have a pleasant afternoon.
You diminish yourself.

Trump hush money verdict unlikely to sway most voters: Poll​

A new poll released Thursday had some positive news for former President Donald Trump‘s reelection chances as he awaits a verdict in his New York hush money trial.

The NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist national poll showed 67% of registered voters nationally wouldn’t be swayed by a guilty verdict against Trump, while 15% said it would make them more likely to vote for him. Another 17% said a guilty verdict would make them less likely to vote for Trump.
Jurors are in the process of deciding whether the former president is guilty or not of 34 counts of falsifying business records related to hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election.

A verdict could come at any point Thursday, though the exact timing remains unclear. The 12-member jury is on day two of deliberations after the prosecution and defense wrapped up their closing arguments on Tuesday.

As I said, you've been drafting this drama up for a while. Did you also have one for a mistrial? Acquittal? Maybe share those with us too?

I could have put one together for either if pressed. I had a feeling this would happen and had a reply already outlined in my notes.
 
Hmmm I wonder if Trump has to surrender his passport now? He does have the means to flee.
his jet went on sale the other day
I don't expect a jail sentence for him. Given history and the nature of the crime, it is likely he'll get a fine, probation, maybe a curfew type thing etc.
sentencing is due July 11th... will that date be impacted by the appeal?

Not sure. No doubt he will appeal. If the conviction is stayed, then I don't see them proceeding forward with sentencing at that time.

However I don't see the conviction being stayed. This is a pretty straightforward criminal action. Regardless of the Trump and maga spin. Won't know for sure however until the appeal is filed and the appellate court issues it's ruling. Then of course he'll appeal it to the next one. He's got six weeks.

Btw, the judge was randomly picked not handpicked as you suggest.

That sounds like a great intro. Is it based on a true story?

If this is a book that you are working on or a Lit story intro, it's intriguing. But it probably will get flagged by Lit's AI checker. It has that ring to it. But then it is intriguing!

Good luck with the story!

I guess we’ll see

The inevitability of the guilty verdict became apparent upon the revelation of the jury instructions by the Judge, which were unjustly barred from discussion during closing arguments.
They were lengthy. And an important part was the instruction that they couldn’t convict on Cohens word alone, but had to have corroboration, which they did

It's apparent that the scales of justice were tampered with. From the outset, the overwhelming Democratic majority in New York City, coupled with the handpicked selection of the judge—instead of a random selection from a pool of 171—both for Trump's and Bannon's trials, raises serious concerns.
Yes, the MAGA talking points. Shame he couldn’t get a change of venue to MAGAland. And now y’all are claiming the judge was handpicked instead of coming up in the rotation.

The odds of impartiality seem improbable. Even the President himself harbored doubts about the fairness of the trial. Though I held onto a glimmer of hope that at least one juror would see through the manipulation, that hope waned in the final days of the proceeding
Interesting, I didn’t see anything about Biden doubting things, but then again wasn’t paying attention. Yes, watching FOX, hope may have waned but they were busy ginning up the spin.

What's the next move? there will be an appeal, drawing from the points I've highlighted earlier. However, navigating the court system could take months. In the interim, Joe Biden will have achieved his long-desired goal: branding Donald Trump as a convicted felon.

Things will play out as they play out. Meanwhile, crooked trump is not just a slur like he calls Biden but a reality. Meanwhile, y’all think trump made a perfect phone call and didn’t sic alt right whackos to stop pence.

Ah, the ongoing glamorization of a grifter who has built a cult and is casting a spell over his base for his own enrichment. And yes, trump is basically Thanos.
