Save our country vote these bums out of office.
Just the MAGA.
Yes, let call up battleground states.
Here is Buddha
@@_swordfern Your mother is a bum
Yes joe needs to go
Never, EVER hire law graduates from Trump University!
And, all this “behaviour” was going on while he was President of the United States.
Which, outside of the trial, makes on wonder what else he was up to while in office…
Guilty as charged!
Can I please ask why everybody is so afraid of this man?He's just a man, just a citizen.He's not a gangster he's just a man
He has about a third of the Nation following him like the pied piper, very scary.
He wields a lot of power.
Because he's bamboozled almost half the country.
@@bobbyjohnson2956 Top ten warning signs that a group may be a cult. #1. The leader. A single charismatic and strong leader, who nevertheless is feared by many close to them. To disagree with leadership is the same as disagreeing with “God”. (Or, in secular terms, a sign of rebellion and betrayal.) Any doubt in the infallibility of the leader is not tolerated and will be met with derision and cries of “traitor!” or that the person isn’t a “true believer”. They may be spoken of as a “believer in name only”, referring to the group in question. Once someone is branded as a traitor, rehabilitation is possible, but often requires a public confession of their “sin” and public pleas for forgiveness. If the leader says a person is completely apostate, there is no redemption possible and threats and derision are commonplace. Someone who remains friendly with that person will also become suspect.

I agree 🙏
You keep acting like we are not intelligent enough to understand the dry stuff, that is unless it’s salacious, people aren’t interested. We are freaking paying attention.
Indeed
Unfortunately they are not acting without information. Information fatigue is real, and our educational system has failed us for many years. This means many people do not pay attention unless it's salacious - sadly many people aren't even aware of what salacious means. For many it is not their direct doing given the systems we have in place, so the least we can do is acknowledge that dry information however important is not necessarily engaging.
I am always re-assured when I see people like you who are paying attention, yet we've many miles to go and leagues before we can sleep.
@@nitro6002 Republicans don't want an education system, so they've been systematically defunding it since the 1980's. Now they're using the War on Woke to attack the public education system on different fronts.
Exactly. This is CORPORATE MEDIA STUPID Bull CRAP for the Masses they play day after day. It is for the dumbed down morons in society we all have to live with. I don't usually listen to MSN BULL SHi_ cause it is AGGRAVATINGLY ANNOYING. There are way better people to listen to like the Meidas Touch Lawyers. They don't F around!
Heh, I'm with you guys - definitely paying attention to the FACTS and not the unneeded fluff. I wish Cronkite or Reynolds or Jennings were here, if at the very least to calm us down with all the overload we're getting.
EXPOSURE is the best way to stop a predator... 😊.. silence is acceptance..
Will you leave when he gets re-elected?
WORD!
I agree but when they got the media on their side and they won't report the truth we can't expose him for taking a shower with his own daughter oh wait were you talking about Trump or Biden😅
What a bunch of b****** removing my post
@bromosapien4972, will you when he doesn't?
“Follow the money” I do accounting I’m a bookkeeper. The math doesn’t lie.
So what! There was no crime.
😊 Our frammakers and founders built our constitution on intent and intentions.
So be it.
Malicious intent should disqualify any one from any sort of immunity even and specially presidents.
Who as foremost examples in a democratic & civilised society must show it. 😊
It’s time to take an English class.
So the extortionist should be arrested
Stormy was so disappointed she wanted a reimbursement. ........
It's unfortunate she'd gladly sell out America for 150k
lol
Yep, she realized, immediately after "the dirty deed" was done, that the only "pay off" she could get was a monetary one.
The only people being disappointed are those in the Marxist Dem cabal: politicians, operatives, and Marxist cult acolytes.
She owes trump 670000 currently from last case
Jail him, jail him already. Ridiculous 😂
When you start getting sloppy since you are complacent with your crimes. You will eventually get caught.
You've all been on copium for 9 years saying this, yet nothing. No crime happened, cope.
What? You are actually telling that you are buying this story? You guys believe everything.
Trump didn't get caught. Democrats made up a bunch of crimes to stop him from running for President. Let the people decide!!!
They be treating this like it's a GD game, not that there's an American Reichstag Fire burning all around them.
A game game the left will lose
You sound hurt. 😂😂
That was Jan 6th......
Gangster Disciple? Ohhhhhhh, I see
Yup. RF over and over again here. 4th Reich is alive and well and has formed out a DEMOCRATIC party ONCE AGAIN 🤦♂️
@@Haywood118says someone from the party that does nothing but cry 24/7, argue an election was stolen for 4 years straight, and plays the victim even though they are the perp 👏🏻
All of this could have been avoided if DonaId had simply stayed home with his wife and newborn baby boy instead of running out to have an affair with an adult film movie actress.
And stayed far from politics.
Behaving like a normal, caring adult human being has never been one of Trump's traits.
It's not just that, if he had never run for President..no one would have even look twice. He would still be living his life!
💯..vote blue.💙💙💙💙💙
No, New York legalese had their eyes on him before he chose to become a politician.
In this case, this slip of the tongue from Trump lawyer means a lot to me. If you follow, you can tell that this was not a retainer and Trump lawyer knows it.
Holes? They took it out of a safe with the title "reimbursement for Stormy". For Stormy!
Not a crime
Trump is so good at promoting family values! I hope they're taking notes!
Hunter smokes crack, Joes daughter said her dad took showers with her at 12 years old...
Maybe Donnie could get his friend Jeffrey’s old cell.
Trump will not go to jail even if this corrupt court convicts him
Better yet, the jail and solitary confinement Michael Cohen had.
That's Mister Donnie to you
@@conniewojahn6445yep. Barr should prosecuted for that.
That's not impossible; that facility is only a few blocks from the courthouse where Trump's trial is happening and the VIP block is the logical place to put Trump if he's held over for a weekend.
Biden/Harris 2024🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Will you leave when he gets re-elected?
Did they have a defense other than to deny, defame and denigrate?
Obviously not
Nope.
It does not really matter what their defense is. The judge lacks the courage to actually punish Trump, even if the jury convicts him after five minutes of deliberation - and, Trump knows it. It is no wonder he is sleeping through the trial.
Nope, you've got it there in a nutshell.
they whine and cry a lot. Their main defense
Watching the defendant's sleazy house of cards crumble, gives me hope for Justice and the future of our Nation!
We wish but here we are with 50 percent of Americans saying they don’t care and will still vote for the orange man 🤡
@@donnareed3822 I don't put a lot of credence in polls. The fact that he is losing supporters every day is encouraging. The more filth exposed in Court, the less support he has!
If the jury does the right thing, Donald's goose is cooked.
Mmmmm goose.🍗🍲🦢
How bad do you have to be at your job? 1 man... twice impeached, 91 fellonies, 4 inditments... down to this last case and they still havent mentioned the crime 3 weeks in.... smh
You don't find it odd that democrats have managed to charge Trump with a bunch of crimes that no one has ever been charged with before? That isn't odd to you?
Hope Hicks was a teenage model. Is that how trump recruited her?
Imagine how shady this clown was in the White House.
All behind closed secret doors.
Any more shady than the one that's in the WH now?
Yet nothing happened to Clinton when he paid Paula.....
Shadier then the current president? Ashley Biden would disagree
@@PointofConnectionFar more shadier.I' M sorry you can't see it.
He never had a case.
Stormy might have given him a case, or visa-versa.
Trump has a case of Gone-oh-rhea. Bye-eeee Donnie Demento.
Boo...there is NO CRIME HERE. ZERO. NADA. ZILTCH.
Trump trial: No crime, No First Amendment, No justice.
Agree, this case should be thrown out the window. Did he sleep with her or didn't he? Who cares.
hot tip for TV news teams = Your viewers want to learn about the factual evidence of the trial, so far greatly powerful, genuinely exciting, and easy for anyone to follow . . . while being 100% disconnected from all of the distractions that Trump's team wants for you to convey about "Michael Cohen is problematic" and "Hope Hicks is glamorous".

The prosecution is building a remarkably strong foundation, upon which their case will hold up to any degree of scrutiny or doubt. I have to admit, it does not look good for Team Trump.

Why on Earth did Stormy settle for so little? This should have been at least $1,000,000.00
Because she is a liar
@@karinbennett924 in 2017 trump paid a $25,000,000 fine for his trump "U" fraud. in 2019 trump paid a $2,000,000 fine for stealing from a charity. he and his family had to promise, in court, to never involve themselves in another charity. they are that rotten.
@@karinbennett924 If she is a liar, why did Trump settle with her? He has always said, "If someone hits you, hit them back ten times harder!" He could have sued her for defamation and quickly bankrupted her. But he settled quietly and tried to keep it hidden. That doesn't sound like a billionaire who was falsely accused, yet let himself be extorted by some bimbo he'd never met.
More like $5M. Still chump change to Trump, but easily worth it for him if it helped him win the election. She could have taken him for so much more, if she'd been smart and had the right attorney.

It really doesn't matter what the witnesses are testifying or what the evidence suggests, all the defense need is ONE juror. JUST ONE!!!!

NO legislation is required to achieve this, just honest judges. You can't pardon yourself for exactly the same reason that you can't be a judge or be on the jury in your own trial.
Remember, nothing matters anymore - not since Trump.
No GOP support that, they are all in up past their eyes.
No state crimes can be pardoned by any president-
Do it. Biden will be in prison for what is left of his sick treacherous life.
This is journalism 😂
How can it be both a business expense and be drawn from his personal accounts?
Wth are expense reports then?
Witnesses are all saying they all loved working for Trump for fear of retaliation.
No one loves in fear sweetie
Or they are just like him....maga !!!
He hires losers who couldn't get jobs like theirs anywhere else. And he pays low. Look at the doofy "Controller", Captain Kangaroo. You think he would be hired as a controller for a legitimate company? Michael Cohen graduated form the lowest ranked law school in the country. No large real estate investment company would even give him an interview. Trump makes him "General Counsel". That's how he gets loyalty. But as we saw when he hired staff in government these third raters are generally incompetent and most eventually get fired.
Tax fraud. Recording personal expenses as business expense.
Election interference, the charge which makes this case criminal. diaper don did it, we all saw it, the prosecution's evidence is proving it.
Thats an IRS case that will take years.. LOL
34 counts of falsifying business records
Exactly. Claiming a business expense is tax deductable. Hush money to Stormy is not. Clearly tax fraud.
