Well, Trump cares...because he's fundraising off of it!

Precisely. If it doesn't fit their preconceived notions, then it must be wrong and Trump is a victim because of some mis-statement on the astromart. Of course, we all know it's really the fault of George Soros and Alvin Bragg being in cahoots with one another. The members of a grand just composed members of the public that voted unanimously on 30 plus counts had nothing to do with it. Not to mention that fact that the GOP outrage machine has called the judicial process an "abomination" among other things without even seeing the counts beforehand...Originally Posted by Jim Moscheck
Even if he's proven to be guilty you guys won't care.

"Porn actor Stormy Daniels maintains that she had sex with Donald Trump in 2006. Daniels said a letter she signed under pressure in 2018, claiming the affair “never happened,” was a “lie.” But some conservatives are misleadingly citing that letter as proof that Trump and Daniels were never intimate and she was not paid “hush money.”Originally Posted by Richard Davis
Except for Stormy Daniels herself, who back in the day said that she had never engaged in a sexual encounter with Donald Trump. So both parties have claimed there was no sexual encounter, but don't let those facts get in the way of your TDS.

So it's all a big conspiracy by a politically motivated grand jury? They're all in on it?Originally Posted by Greg Shaffer
Actually no....being indicted means very little. Conviction on the other hand means everything. People are charged with crimes all the time, without a conviction it means nothing. Feel free to talk to me about it once he is convicted for something. So far it is little more than blatant politically motivated fuckery.

Of course, the Hillary "lock her up" echo from Trump rallies can still be heard now and louder than ever since these same Trump supporters wanted Clinton jailed for her emails without any due process but now that we've had a formal legal process charging an indictment against their leader, it's all "political"...Originally Posted by James Lacey
We don't even know the charges yet, and you already know that some are not "legal charges?" Ok, if you say so. By the way, I agree with the sentiment that anyone, and I mean anyone, who has broken the law, regardless of who they are, be it the Clintons, Obama, or Biden, should be indicted and tried. Also, you may want to refresh your memory on the Whitewater investigation since if there was ever a "fishing expedition," that was it. Yet at the time, and even now, I'm sure, right-wingers defend and justify that investigation that only uncovered Bill's affair with Lewinsky, which, of course, had bupkiss to do with Whitewater.

That implies the grand jury is biased but there's no indication of that so, yes, we do know that this is not a politically motivated prosecution.Originally Posted by James Brown
I agree with the bolded part. Who knows if this is primarily a politically motivated prosecution? We have no way of knowing until the evidence is presented.

Well, we agree to disagree on most of the above comments. Of interest is the former DA, Cyrus Vance, now stating he was told to "stand down" by the Trump DOJ in the same case...Originally Posted by James Brown
I see it subtly different. It would imply that the prosecutor Bragg is unduly biased. Richard and Dershowitz are right I think, a prosecutor can get an indictment if he wants one. There is also no doubt in my mind that Bragg is biased. But I will be surprised if he let his bias cloud his judgement to such an extent that he is bringing charges he does not think he can prove.
My guess, my prediction is that Trump will cave before trial and plea to a misdemeanor. I'll be surprised if this goes to trial and Trump loses. I'll be surprised if this is a slam dunk win by Trump because Bragg has no case.
The only thing I'm sure of is that the process is working according to design. Trump will get his due process. Bragg will prove his case, or he will indeed suffer a career ending embarrassment.
